[08.09.30][News] JunJin vs. KBS - The Media Fight Over A Song

Singer JunJin and KBS fight over his new song "Saying I love you" has become the dominant topic for discussion within music industry these days.

On 30th of September, Open World Entertainment told the News Agency about the issue: "We cannot understand the problem. From the lyrics to the jacket, it seems like we can never meet their high standards. We cannot, in order to satisfy KBS, spend millions of won to create separate CDs."

"This is a very serious issue, since it involes funds from producing factories and retailers, at the end, all of us must shoulder a huge loss. This is totally unreasonable."

"Hundreds of thousands of copies have been delivered to retail stores and we cannot possibly collect back and replace with new versions."

In KBS stand, "the disqualification of JunJin's new album" is an irreversible issue, in order to maintain "the integrity of music industry" - "This is not "a song" issue, this is the matter of "rules" since JunJin's album producing process doesn't fit the rules".

The growing opposition between JunJin's side and KBS's side has put both of them into a very tough position, and the damage cannot be measured.
