Former FIFTY FIFTY Members Saena, Sio, and Aran Fight for Privacy in Lawsuit With ATTRAKT as They Plan Comeback

Former FIFTY FIFTY members Saena, Sio, and Aran, who are gearing up for a comeback with their new agency, have taken legal action against their previous agency, ATTRAKT. They have successfully filed a counterclaim and requested that the lawsuit records be kept private.

On August 23, the three members, along with nine other individuals, asked the Seoul Central District Court to restrict access to the lawsuit records. The court approved their request and has sent copies of the decision to the legal teams of both parties.

The former members had previously filed a counterclaim against ATTRAKT, seeking damages of 13 billion won. They stressed that their counterclaim is not just about getting overdue payments but is crucial for clarifying past expenses related to their entertainment activities before addressing ATTRAKT’s claim for damages.

In their statement, they said, “This counterclaim came after our request to suspend the exclusive contract was rejected. Our legal team reviewed the financial details, leading to the current legal steps.” They also claimed that ATTRAKT has not provided clear financial statements to date.

ATTRAKT had originally filed a lawsuit for 13 billion won on December 18, 2023, against Saena, Sio, Aran, their parents, and executives from The Givers, including CEO Ahn Seong Il. The first court hearing was scheduled for August 29, but the trial has been postponed due to the counterclaim.

The former FIFTY FIFTY members have also applied for additional restrictions on trial records to keep the lawsuit details private while they prepare to resume their careers.

Recently, Saena, Sio, and Aran signed with the label MASSIVE E&C under iOK Company and are planning their return. MASSIVE E&C praised the members, noting, “They were key to the global success of ‘Cupid’ and significantly contributed to FIFTY FIFTY’s achievements.”
