A JYP Entertainment rep followed up today to reveal that they have sent in their request for appeal. "We found the ruling unjust so we have requested an appeal," said the rep.


The court previously ruled that there was no evidence to prove that JYP Entertainment and Suzy had suffered any financial damages from the so called 'Suzy hats' and that there were no separate publicity rights to acknowledge in this matter.
