Child star Wang Seok Hyun (7) has been met with an abrupt break in his career. After debuting in 2008 in front of an 8 million member audience with the movie, "Speed Scandal," he quickly rose to stardom with his cute looks and witty comments, eventually receiving the child star award at various movie award ceremonies. Soon after, he began appearing on various variety programs, dramas, musicals, TV CFs, and movies. However, all of that came to an end by late August when his father filed a lawsuit against his agency. According to the Seoul Central District Court, Wang's father stated, "His mother and I have joint custody. She signed a contract with an entertainment agency without my consent. Since I have just as much rights as she does, this contract is void." Wang's mother claimed that she was unable to understand his accusations as he knew of the contract long before. Wang's agency, Dazzle Entertainment, also expressed their surprise over the situation and stated, "When we first made the contract last year, we did everything necessary in order to make sure that the minor and his mother were signing a just contract. We also met with the father many times after the contract was signed. He knows the content of the contract and it's difficult for us to understand why he's asking us to void the contract nearly a year after he has already started his career." In an interview, Wang's father stated that he no longer wanted his son working in the entertainment industry. "It is not because of the money. I don't want my son's name being mentioned everywhere on the internet. The reason I'm not stating my side is for the benefit of Seok Hyun. I'm different from his mother and his agency, I'm holding back for him." He also claimed that he had never seen the actual contract despite requesting to see it numerous times. The divorce with his wife was also a one sided delivery, and he further explained that he was not allowed to see his children after she left the house with them. "I came home one day, and all of my stuff was thrown out of the house, and the security lock on our home was changed. I couldn't do anything else, so I left for Busan. I tried to see my children by visiting their schools and whatnot, but I'm not able to do anything else in case they're put in harms way. We're not completely divorced yet, and I'm still their father... I want to make Seok Hyun quit the entertainment agency while he's still young. It will be hard for him to continue his career when his family is in such shambles. That is why I'm asking to void his contract. I no longer want to raise him as an entertainer." The person most damaged in this entire situation is nobody other than Wang Seok Hyun. Industry representatives have begun speculating whether he will become the next Macaulay Culkin, and are deeply concerned for his safety. Source + Photo: Lady Trend
