Loona's 10 billion won (about $8.5 mil) investment was mostly spent on two of the members, not including Chuu

As the lawsuit filed by Kim Jiwoo develops, we will know more about the individual contract between the members and the company.

It was boasted that Loona had a 10 billion won (about $8.5 million ) investment, and that money was quickly spent.

However, most of the money were spent on just two members, Heejin and Hyunjin, at the initial phase.

Heejin contributed in the initial phase and was kinda the face of the group until Chuu began to be promoted. I don't think Hyunjin did anything.

If you say the total amount invested is 100, Heejin took maybe 30 , and Hyunjin probably took north of 25, and the rest sharing less than 45.

And Chuu, for whom less than 5% had been invested, is bringing close to 100% of the revenue Loona is making.

Which is still way short of paying the 8.5 million debt.

Her suit depends upon a crucial points - whether her contract allows concessions for individual activities or not.

If the first is true, she will probably win the suit, and leave the company, which will probably be the end of Loona.

However it is also possible that all of the individual activities are considered to be part of the group activity and whatever Chuu makes for the rest of the contract will sink in as part of the debt retirement, with the members benefiting without lifting a finger.

Whatever the outcome is, the lift between Chuu and the members is certain and won't be mended.

No? I don’t even think loona are paid. So why BBC invest on heejin and Hyunjin that’s no making sense. The reason why BBC is going bankrupt is because they invested so much during the pre-debut era also their concept cost a lot of money, the MV seem really expensive.

pre debut initial investments were mostly concentrated upon heejin and hyunjin with not too much for the rest

So it's confirm ? That chuu is lezving loona ?

I don't know, it depends upon the rumored lawsuit Chuu is allegedly filing.

That's the thing. Are they splitting that 8 million split by 12?

If that's the case, each girl would need to bring in about $600k.

Chuu should have made a significant dent in that. Unless they are saying the full amount needs to be 100% paid back before anyone can profit.

I don't know. Either way those girls joined the wrong company. I'm so happy Yena escaped that mess.

No. It is being 'shared' by everyone. Doesn't matter who brings how much - it all comes into the pool of the debt which has to be paid and since Chuu is the only one bringing anything now the entire earnings go to pay the debts Heejin and Hyunjin had incurred.

In other words Chuu is paying Heejin and Hyunjin's debts now.

Also you're trying to push in-grouo politics without knowing anything at all about anyone's perspective

Typical capitalistic mindset

Initially most of the promotion, pre-debut, was on these two.

?? What?? Anyways let's not make this about the members. It's about BBC's continued incompetence. Chuu deserves better

I have said quite a lot of times that Yuju is being exploited by the members and the company when GFriend was around. And what I have said is kind of proven to be true when she refused to join Viviz and took her own, although it is too late for her to go anywhere.

In the industry there are a lot of things which won't be said until many years have passed. Basically, Chuu is paying Hyunjin's and Heejin's debts. And Chuu doesn't want to do that anymore.
