Youngwoong Jaejoong, Micky YooChun, and Xiah Junsu, members of popular group DBSK has filed a provisional disposition to free themselves from their contract with SM. This case has many insiders and fans curious to what will happen.
DBSK is an idol group popular not only in Korea but in all of Asia. DBSK has continued to show their outstanding relationship with SM. The three members have thanked Lee Soo Man, the president of SM, multiple times when they received awards.
There are two very different opinions looking onto this situation, ‘The DBSK affairs.’ The 2 opinions are from producers and from fans.
On July 31st, the three members filed a provisional disposition to stop the effects of their contract with SM. DBSK fans immediately responded that this was SM’s fault. These assertions became stronger when the three members revealed official reports. The 3 members used expressions such as ’13 years contract,’ ‘album sales 0.4%-1% earnings division,’ ‘SM’s tools for profit’ in order to express their wishes to get away from SM’s restraint. In response, the complaints by the fans increased. Some fans even posted the situation when HOT disbanded in 2001 to criticize SM.
However, most of the staffs in the music industry are presenting very different opinions.
A high-ranking staff in an entertainment company refuted the assertions made by the 3 members, stating that these actions were too haste and is an act of betrayal to SM.
This staff stated on the 4th, opened with his opinion about the 13 years contract. “For people who are not in the entertainment industry, they will say that a 13 years contract is a slave contract. But it is because they don’t know the realities of the entertainment business.”
He stated, “the group DBSK that made its debut in 2004 is in this position because they were extremely successful for their 5 years after debut. If they were not able to attract the attentions of the fans, they would have been thankful that SM would be in charge of them for 13 years. The 3 members of DBSK must have not been 100% sure about their future success, so they probably agreed to sign for 13 years as a way of insurance.”
He also stated, “SM stated on the 3rd that DBSK was paid 11 billion won for the last 5 years in addition to foreign cars as bonus. Following this, DBSK were not ill-treated. There is probably not one SM staff who gets paid 100 million won every year for taking part into making DBSK a great success.
On the other hand in the midst of all this, DBSK fans and the majority of the music industry agree that they are against DBSK disbandment. DBSK is a big influence to not only Korean teenagers but is an important part of the Korean Wave.
Therefore, it is important that the 3 members of DBSK and SM settle their differences. Because SM holds some rights for DBSK as a team, continuation of DBSK will be difficult unless the 3 members reconcile their differences with SM. In addition to this problem, the two other members of DBSK, have not participated in the current lawsuit, and have expressed that they would stay with SM.
This situation requires SM and DBSK’s 3 members to make wise decisions in order to have a ‘win-win’ situation,considering many aspects.

Fiuuuhhh untung yang ini lebih mudah dimengerti...
SUM :
Jadi dalam hal ini, ada 2 pendapat yang berbeda ..,,
Pertama adalah pendapat dari fans yang tentunya menyalahkan SM sepenuhnya karena ke”tidak adilannya” terhadap DBSK dan yang kedua adalah pendapat dari pihak industry music, yang mana menyatakan bahwa kontrak 13 tahun di industry musik itu tidaklah panjang, bagi orang awam, 13 tahun itu memang panjang, namun bagi seorang entertainer, 13 tahun itu tidaklah panjang, ditambah lagi kontrak 13 tahun ini dibuat saat debut DBSK, di mana saat itu, tidak ada yang tahu mereka akan berhasil atau tidak..,, Bagi DBSK yang saat ini sudah sangat terkenal, kontrak 13 tahun sudah pasti sangat lama, tapi coba bayangkan bila DBSK tidak sepopuler saat ini, tentunya mereka akan bersyukur mendapat kontrak selama 13 tahun tersebut. Lagipula dalam tempo waktu 5 tahun ini, mereka sudah dibayar 11billion won dan dapat mobil luar lagi sebagai bonus, tak ada staff yang dapat bayaran sampai 100million won pertahun dalam membawa nama DBSK naik..,,
Yahhh, walaupun kedua pihak berbeda pendapat, namun keduanya tak ingin DBSK bubar, karena DBSK adalah grup yang membawa nama Korea di Asia dengan banyak fans muda yang mendukung mereka..,,
