• "Single's Inferno 4" Star Lee Sian Gets Sued by Agency for Breaking Contract After Shocking Exit

    Lee Sian, who starred in Netflix's Single's Inferno 4, is in hot water after being sued by her agency for breaching her exclusive contract.

    Leaders Entertainment revealed on January 21 that they have taken legal action against Lee Sian, accusing her of violating the terms of her contract.

    The agency explained, “Lee Sian has violated her exclusive contract, and we are now pursuing legal steps against her.”

    The company further detailed, “Since August 2023, we have been managing Lee Sian. Last year, we started serious talks about her appearance on Single's Inferno 4 and made an agreement to extend her contract by 18 months, which was originally set to end on October 25".

    They added, "After discussions with her and her family, Lee Sian signed the agreement in May, and filming took place in June. However, right after filming, she suddenly decided to end her contract in August. She informed us through her representative that she would only continue working until October 21.”

    Now, Lee Sian is requesting that her contract be terminated. Leaders Entertainment responded firmly, saying, “Both the original contract and the annex agreement were breached."

    They added, "Her objections are baseless, and we have strong evidence to support our claims. We will take legal action to protect our rights and ensure this does not happen again.”

    Lee Sian was part of the popular Single's Inferno 4, which aired on December 14. Prior to this, she was a former girl group trainee and had appeared on Mnet’s audition programs Idol School (2017) and Produce48 (2018).
