Korean Netizens react to reports of FIFTY FIFTY's Keena apologizing to CEO of ATTRAKT

Posted by EunhaYi Tuesday, October 17, 2023

It was previously reported that Keena, one of the members of FIFTY FIFTY, rescinded her litigation against her talent agency, ATTRAKT. Additionally, she openly expressed remorse, personally conveying her apologies to the agency's CEO, Jeon Hong Jun.


Meanwhile, the other three members of FIFTY FIFTY have decided to adopt a different approach. They remain steadfast and resolute in their decision to pursue legal action against their agency. This has resulted in an unusual divide within the group. 

In response, Korean netizens shared their opinions on the situation on an online community.

"It's better that the rest lost their case by coming back like this. Although the CEO suffered a loss in money, I felt like the betrayal was a big blow, so I think it's fortunate that at least one person came back."

"If you came back and apologized even if you were alone, you really showed courage."

"The CEO is pretty commendable too for accepting so easily."

"She probably came back around to seek her rights because producer Ahn Seong Il's copyright was reduced. 'Cupid' Copyright Ahn Seong Il 28.65%, The Givers 66.85%, 'Mr Baek' 4%, Song Ja Kyung (Keena) 0.5% I was joking around at first, but originally wasn't Keena at 6.4%?"

"That's good to hear. Anyway, the person who received the apology is the CEO, so if he accepted the apology, there is no need to argue further... I hope you prepare well and have a good new start."

"You've been a trainee for 7 years. It came late... but you did well (to apologize)."

"If there is even one existing member, it is possible to maintain the group name haha."

"It's a late apology, but I'm glad you gathered your courage now."

"It's courageous to go back and apologize when things have gone as wrong as this... The CEO said he forgives her, so I have nothing more to say."

"I think it's been more than a month since I heard a rumor that there was a member who wanted to come back, and I thought at that time that it might have been the one who was a trainee for 7 years, but it seems to be true. I hope it works out well for her."

"It may be the end of FIFTY FIFTY, but I hope she finds success in another direction. She seems to have gone through a lot."

"They should hire new vocalists, re-record 'Cupid', and promote overseas."

Ok, well, if he's accepted it, who are we to argue? He clearly wants her as part of his artist portfolio, she's realised she made a humdinger of a mistake, and she's apologised for it.

.

Time to move on. I wonder where he'll use her? Maybe part of his new girl group, I can't imagine she's soloist material yet, she's too young and a bit toxic in the eyes of any potential fandom at the moment, but I suppose it's possible to turn it round. Knetz do love a good grovel and repentance story.

I'm still amazed that fans on Twitter are suggesting that ATTRAKT or the CEO himself is lying about this. I highly doubt it. What would they gain from lying at this stage? Nevertheless, I imagine Keena will make a statement at some point. I'm intrigued to see what she says.
