Attrakt has filed a lawsuit against former FIFTY FIFTY members Aran, Sio and Saena.According to news reports by South Korean outlets Yonhap News Agency and Korea JoongAng Daily, Attrakt has filed a “civil suit” against the three former FIFTY FIFTY singers, their parents and two executives of production company The Givers, Ahn Sung-il and Baek Jin-sil.The K-pop agency alleges that those they filed the lawsuit against were involved in the “unjust” breach of the three K-pop idols’ contracts. “The estimated damages and penalty fees reached hundreds of billions of won,” the label said.“However, we demanded the partial payment of 130billion won (roughly US$100,000), considering the possibility of a further increase in damages in the future,” Attrakt said.The lawsuit comes about two months after Attrakt terminated the contracts of members Aran, Sio and Saena, following a legal battle between the label and the K-pop idols over their contracts.The fourth and final original member of the girl group, Keena, had dropped her lawsuit against Attrakt just weeks prior and returned to the label.
