What is this, Stockholm syndrome?
interesting...
how does one not interact with one's boss?
I mean I guess it's possible in larger conglomerates and so forth but ATTRAKT???
well...there's always to route of Afreeca BJ...if they play their cards right they might earn enough tips in a couple years to pay the termination penalty as well as litigation costs.
Well i guess they understood that most koreans took the side of the ceo
That their career is ruined after this scandal and no agency would want them
The other guy abandon them
And now they have no money, no jobs and they need to pay lawyers for a lawsuit who will probably continue for years and they'll probably lose and having to pay a big amount of money
I'm not surprise that they are giving up and trying to find a way to end this
But i think there's no way the ceo is going to take them back now that he terminate their contract
And tbh if i was them i would be very embarass to do a lawsuit, getting my contract terminate like i want and then say i want to comeback in the company
what...... 
after all that they want to go back now
LOL

the offer (from the 3 girls) was before Keena returned which allowed Attrakt to terminate their contracts.
This is sad.
But let's hope they learn and grow from this. It's really easy to judge them, but I still believe this could have been a ton of idols in the industry if they didn't have the right guidance early on in their careers. Those other groups are just lucky they didn't score a sudden global hit, get persuaded by some third party to sue and leave, and end up like this.
So basically to go back to how it was with The Givers
Except their producer disappeared in the air
Better not return at all then.
Smells like a non-compete was threatened.
FIFTY FIFTY 2024. I'm ready.
People think their careers are done and over, but this can still be salvaged if their own CEO and company take them back. After all, the CEO forgave Keena and had kind words to say.
They'll come back and release incredible music, and all of this will be a thing of the past. Their fandom still loves and supports them. International fans generally seem to be more forgiving when it comes to this situation.
They still have a chance to redeem themselves.
they want to go back to the company?
is there a mistranslation?
am I reading this wrong?
what were they trying to do this whole time?
i thought they said they would rather leave the industry than going back to Attrakt?
He is their CEO, imagine rejecting meeting your boss???

Bruh these 3 girls are still doing drama by saying they will go back to company only when they don't have to interact with ceo at all which is dumb because this will only just lead to more conflicts in future if ceo takes them back, the contract has already been terminated, the company does not wants them. This is time for unconditional surrender, 5050 are is no position to make demands.
Sorry girls but you all said you rather leave the industry than go back to the company
Have some backbone
what i'm understanding is that this is before their contract were terminated, this was their last and final negotiation and condition they asked for. 
of course attrakt didn't accept this and decided to terminate them

this "offer" was before Keena dropped her lawsuit and returned to attrakt and before JHJ terminated their contracts.

They have no other options, is go back or give up on the dream.
They are probably still unwilling to let go of their dreams to be singers.
I just do not see how this will work out.
If this is pre-contract termination by the CEO, they have effectively avoided being counter sued, because they were willing to fulfill their contractual obligations.
They are basically free agents now. The CEO can sue, but he cannot win as they were willing to come back.
He could sue for defamation, but the penalty is just usually a minor fine.
The funny thing is they still want to NEGOTIATE

He still can for contract violation- unwillingly to fulfill their contract term, running away from their company, avoiding the ceo, no discussion before applying the lawsuit and the major one is faking the Covid test. Not to mention they put ridiculous requirements which Attrakt didn't have to agree probably in their mediation phase. They also didn't dropped their lawsuit. This is far from saying they willingly to fullfill their contract obligations.
I wonder if their families are not well-educated. I don't mean that as an insult. It's just that they were so easily led astray and convinced to make some terrible decisions. I could understand if the girls fell for it because they're young and inexperienced. But the parents fell for it, as well, which really confuses me. It reminds me of Western artists who are naive and not well-educated and get talked into atrocious contracts.

no, Keena flipping back to Attrakt allowed JHJ to terminate their contracts

Moreover, Lee Jin Ho expounded the significance of Keena's comeback, stating that it had two major implications. "Firstly," he said, “Without Keena it would have been impossible to terminate the contract with the three members. With Keena's return, the legitimacy of the remaining members disappeared. Additionally, with Keena's return, it was confirmed that this incident occurred due to tampering by a third party.”
Lee Jin Ho also addressed FIFTY FIFTY's trademark application, observing that, "The details of the trademark acknowledge the usage rights by the initial users. Four members working together would have enabled them to continue their operations. However, with Keena’s decision to return, the first users and the initial applicants (i.e. the agency) have reunited. Henceforth, termination of the contract is immaterial.”
Ladies, it's unfortunate that you've chosen to betray the company at this point. You had ample time to come back, but it seems you were determined to secure that contract termination. Now that you've achieved it, there's no need to have a change of heart. Keena wisely decided to return and even tried to persuade you to do the same, but unfortunately, you didn't heed her advice. As a result, you can now move on with regrets.
Well first of all if you read the article you would know that the negotiation happened before the contract termination, second the girls were screwed hard by that givers ceo I think when they hit it big with Cupid they got scared that they’ll end as a just one hit wonder girl group so they wanted to protect whatever they had at all coast but unfortunately it coast their career and now they lost all of it it’s really sad honestly and now attrakt will debut an other gg and they’ll probably have the support of the gp and fifity fifty is left with nothing
these girls sure had outstanding legal advisers omg
No matter how good your legal adviser is, they can't do nothing if you ignore their advice. Keena mentioned it was the members and their parents revealing all this info in the past couple weeks not the law firm.

I agree that they can still turn this around, but I don't think they have much of a fandom.
Love the song, but I didn't even know their individual names until yesterday.
Thing is, they have annoyed quite a few people, even quite a lot of Western Kpop fans, who normally tend to take the side of idols when they have a conflict with a company.

Greed can sometimes makes people do illogical things
I don’t think they can make a comeback now….maybe after a break and working on getting back to public’s good graces
Sadly, I think this ruined their career. Realistically speaking
The funny thing is they still want to NEGOTIATE
I heard they have a 50/50 chance of getting what they want
They are out of their minds.
Have some backbone
They don't have any. No honor either.
