MOLE Entertainment releases statement on CoCoSoRi

Afbeeldingsresultaat voor cocosori

On the 11th of December, CoCoSoRi's company MOLE Entertainment released their official statement on the issue regarding CoCoSoRi.


The company’s position on Coco’s conduct


This is M.O.L.Entertainment, CoCoSoRi’s management company.

During the past few months, Coco has posted several statements about our company as well as about Sori on social media, which do not reflect the truth. In these statements, which she has expressed through live-streamed video and also through several written comments posted on her social media account, Coco has tried to pass her own problems as if they were problems with the company and Sori. With regards to these statements, we ask CoCoSoRi fans not to worry. In addition, in order to release Coco’s 2nd single, we started a Kickstarter crowd funding project in which Coco got backing from her fans. After releasing her single, the fans who backed her were supposed to get some rewards for participating in her crowd funding project, but there is still one reward pledge which Coco was supposed to fulfill personally, which to this day she still has not done.
Last week, media articles portrayed Coco as a victim which brought more misunderstandings. Furthermore, there were some fans who just accepted Coco’s claims, which gave rise to a serious situation because they began sending unpleasant and aggressive messages to Sori’s personal social media accounts. Since our silence has been perceived as the company being at fault, we have no choice but to disclose our position publicly.
We are currently preparing a legal response towards Coco. As a matter of principle, we believe that the parties involved should work to resolve the issue. We ask you to understand that it can be dangerous to listen to, and to believe in only one side of a story without having all the information.
We are very sorry that these problems have occurred, and we deeply apologize to those who have supported CoCoSoRi.






I would personally like to make an apology as well, since I wrote the article last week on the CoCoSoRi issue on here. I never intended to make Coco look like the victim or take a biased stance in any way, shape or form. The only reason the previous article focused on Coco's side so much, is because she has been very vocal about the whole situation. It's very easy to find a post from her or a stream in which she discusses this. Whereas the stance of Sori and the company had not been as publicy announced and is only really known to the fans who have followed them for some time.


I would like to say one thing. Everything I posted in the previous article, is based on what has actually been said. Whether what was said or not is true, is not something anyone besides the company, Sori and Coco know. I have seen many people saying the last article was false and not based on facts, and then bringing in arguments that I did mention. This and people taking the stance of Coco being the victim from my article made me realise I need to be a lot more careful with how I word my texts and how I present it and I will do my best to improve.


Once I again, my apologies.

I don't think the author is at fault. They just wrote according to the info that was available. It did make Coco seem like a victim, but that's because that's how Coco painted the situation.

What if CoCo is telling the truth and the company is just trying to cover itself? She did share a lot of details that I think would be hard to fake or get mixed up. This is also, as a company, not the right action to take. You don't publicly state you are going to sue your talent. You handle it internally and put out a release saying just that. You don't point fingers and throw your own talent under the bus. To me, this makes me feel like she was telling the truth. They weren't taking care of her and they are continuing to do so.
