E&M has stated to the press, "Athlete Song Ga Yeon has hired an attorney, claimed that the agency has treated her unfairly, and demanded that her exclusive contract with the agency be cancelled this past April 6th." 

E&M argued against these claims, saying, "Through the agency head employees' devoted support and efforts, Song Ga Yeon, who has little martial arts experience, was able to promote as a star on a famous program prior to her ROAD FC debut." 

They continued, "As it follows, the situation in which Song Ga Yeon refuses to talk and simply says via official documents that she wants to terminate the contract is disconcerting and regrettable."  

E&M further refuted Song Ga Yeon's claim that the agency failed to supply her with the education she needed to improve her ability as an athlete, saying, "Song Ga Yeon received training when she was commissioned to one of Korea's top MMA teams, Team ONE." They argued, "Rather, athlete Song Ga Yeon did not carry out all her obligations to the agency heads. While her official team was in training, Song Ga Yeon was absent dozens of times, being oblivious to a fundamental duty of being an athlete. Since she was 19 years old, she consistently had abnormal relations with a specific athlete from the team under our agency and, because of this, she was unable to separate her work life and private and requested special treatment." 

They said, "Currently, athlete Song Ga Yeon is avoiding contact with her former agency employees and is refusing to attend her filming appointments and schedules, causing huge damage to the agency. She has to know that she is clearly neglecting her duties listed in the exclusive contract." 

E&M concluded their rebuttal with, "The fact that the now 20-year-old Song Ga Yeon is making the extreme choice to cancel her contract is not something arbitrary. Despite all the conflicts we've had in the past, we understand the emotional suffering Song Ga Yeon must have endured and have an intention to talk things out with her." 

Despite these last words, due to the legal dispute between E&M and Song Ga Yeon, the martial artist has unfortunately been edited out of the April 14 broadcast of SBS's 'Roommate' finale. Although Song Ga Yeon had originally filmed for the show as a season one cast member making a surprise appearance to teach Jackson and Seo Kang Jun some martial arts, her portions have been heavily edited for the episode.
