Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
It’s been a while since we got news on the LOONA and Blockberry Creative contract stuff, probably because it’s been widely assumed Blockberry would lose. Well, after Chuu won her contract nullification case and then had it confirmed on appeal in March, now members Heejin, Kim Lip, Jinsoul, and Choerry have reportedly all won their lawsuits as well.
The Seoul Northern District Court’s 11th Civil Division ruled in favor of LOONA members Heejin, Kim Lip, Jinsoul, and Choerry in their case against Blockberry Creative regarding the non-existence of their exclusive contracts valued at 200 million won.
It’s been almost a year and a half since the quartet won their injunctions against Blockberry, and as mentioned, Blockberry did appeal that case to a higher court and lost there as well.
Since they’re currently appealing Chuu’s case to the Supreme Court, it seems safe to assume they’ll also appeal this case, and there are still the contract nullification results for the cases of Haseul, Yeojin, Yves, Go Won, Hyeju, and then Vivi and Hyunjin left. Thus, assuming Blockberry continue to appeal everything, there’s still a long way to go before this is actually over and they can potentially (hopefully) truly rack up an extensive list of losses if the trend holds.
