In the ongoing controversy surrounding the rookie group FIFTY FIFTY, both parties embroiled in the dispute persistently present their perspectives in an effort to sway public opinion.

In the latest news about FIFTY FIFTY, The Givers side argued that ATTRAKT's CEO Jun Hong Joon was aware of the deal with Warner Music Korea. Previously, ATTRAKT provided a phone call recording between CEO Jun Hong Joon and an executive from Warner Music Korea, revealing that CEO Jun was unaware of the "buyout" deal with Warner Music Korea.

On July 12, The Givers publically released the Kakaotalk conversations between The Givers CEO Ahn Sung Il and ATTRAKT CEO Jun Hong Joon. Based on the conversation, The Givers' side claimed that CEO Jun Hong Joon had been fully aware of the deal between Warner Music Korea. Read more about this here.

However, public sentiment towards The Givers continues to sour, with a growing number of netizens positing that the leaked conversations reveal CEO Jun Hong Joon as a victim of deception by CEO Ahn Sung Il.

Korean netizens commented, "Who's speaking the truth?" "I think the voice recording is more believable," "It seems like he slyly played with words. He (ATTRAKT CEO) was asking to find investors but then he (The Giver CEO) claimed it's a label deal but didn't specify what the label deal exactly is," "When the voice recording was revealed, CEO Jun sounded really shocked to find out that it was a 'buyout deal'," "Is it only me or it seems like they took such a long time to refute the 'buyout' argument? Like they took the time to organize their excuse," "This is 100% deception by Ahn Sung Il and he played with words," "He could have refuted right away but he refuted this now because he needed time to fit the story together," "He needs to reveal voice recordings too not just pieces of Kakaotalk messages," "His buyout deal and CEO Jun's investment deal is completely different," "The Givers is digging their own grave it seems. Especially with the messages they revealed," and "CEO Ahn Sung Il deceived CEO Jun it sounds like."
