korean article states that Wendy, Joy, and Yeri's current contracts have not expired yet. So different lenghts since 2021 is still my guess

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

I don't remember them ever announcing the first contract renewal. So they really did have 10 year contracts?

no announcement but all those shareholder reports have always put them as renewed in 2021

contracts for rv seem to be different lenghts guess, I speculate seulgi did her second renewal at the end of 2022 since last time sm stated her renewal was not recent when articles came out. basically after 2021 they all have different contracts

i've been looking at what albums Circle chart corrected and it's mostly NCT that has added pretty big amounts to their count, Aespa and Riize also added but not as much, no change for RV and EXO actually reduced final number for their SMC version (just lost 100 copies not a big deal)

of course there are corrections for other non sm groups but no huge gains or loses.

has Circle made so many corrections in the past?

today there's some new posts and things knetz are talking about

Riize's circle chart sales were originally posted as 948k and edited to 1.03M in the yearly chart

also since some people here have mentioned Nmixx their yearly circle sales are 838k, it went down from their previous circle number that was from august (918k) and is much lower than their certified 1st week Hanteo number (1.03m), so I guess lots of returns for them

Also such great timing Hanteo has also removed their yearly chart to make edits lol

i'm still confused lol

so they sold 1.01m on hanteo first week? but they're overall total on circle/gaon to this day is 1.09?, been reading the comments on pc and one says it's suspicious because they should be having small jumps in sales in accordance to the fansigns but they don't.

I didn't see Cbar activity. I don't know if it is just for RV and Aespa or all groups but there is a huge drop in Ktown orders, which is one of the sites where most of the Cbars order from

For Aespa almost 800k orders came from these bars the last time, and that's the exact drop difference coincidentally

Red Velvet Chinese bars stated they were no longer going to buy from Ktown, something about the shipping costs is what people told me. All I know is IreneBar just did limited orders from few specific stores that were willing to sell Irene versions at normal price with none of that forced "bundle sale" (Irene Ver.+other member) like many other stores do.

red velvet sales (1st week/gaon weekly) are the same as their two previous comebacks. It's a distribution problem.

I should have checked the main page, AKP already did an article hours ago

'Unanswered Questions' faces renewed suspicion for FIFTY FIFTY episode

translation of Keena's last message to the members when she decided to drop the lawsuit provided by Kboo site

On November 15, Dispatch released an exposé on the investigative TV show Unanswered Question‘s FIFTY FIFTY episode. Much of the exposé was centered around an anonymous informant, much of whose testimony would later be proved to have been false.

In the exposé, Dispatch also revealed a group text that Keena had sent to her then-fellow FIFTY FIFTY members and their families. In the text sent on September 4, Keena reveals her uneasiness with how things had transpired thus far.

Quote

No matter how well we prepared for the lawsuit, we have always had setbacks due to unforeseen circumstances, and thus, I no longer can trust in an uncertain future and just wait.
— Keena

Keena then reveals that the members, as feared by fans, had very little say in proceedings, stating that they had followed along with the “Adults” and were even discouraged from taking part in negotiations with ATTRAKT.

Quote

Until now, we have faithfully listened and followed the discretion of the adults. Whether we are present at the first round of negotiations, ATTRAKT is able to manipulate the media as they want, but it is true that I am afraid that if we don’t take part in negotiations, our image as “Traitor Idols” will be solidified. But the biggest reason (for my uncertainty) is the fact that I don’t understand why we are avoiding negotiating without even listening to the other side, especially after our injunction has been dismissed.
— Keena

Keena then lamented the adults’ decision to keep the members from taking part in negotiations and stated that she felt that it was time the two parties compromised.

Quote

You said that we would be in a disadvantageous situation if we took part in the first round of negotiations, but looking at the situation now, it is already late (as we should have met with ATTRAKT earlier), and I am beginning to suspect that we should have, at the very least, had a conversation at the start of this. I think it is time that we compromise.
I know we were trying to be a Joan Of Ark-like figure for all K-Pop idols and to take on their struggles, but it is true that we fought meaninglessly by forcing our complaints against what is widely accepted as reasonable.
— Keena

Keena then hinted that there was discourse among members and that the members had never met in person to speak about their legal battle. The idol then finishes her text by stating that she will be parttaking in upcoming negotiations and lamented that the members had been left out of all communication regarding their legal battle.

Quote

I won’t force my thoughts on the other members. We don’t seem to agree on much anyway, and we’ve never met in person to talk about this, and we’ve never had the opportunity to really talk about what we thought about the situation. So, I respect their wishes. I don’t think my desire to listen to what the other side (ATTRAKT) has to say, this once, will change.
I will take part in negotiations, no matter what, and I will listen to what they say. I would like to say that I am still skeptical about what Ahn Sun Il and the lawyers, who have ignored our wishes and have left the members out in proceedings, have to say. In the future, I believe we should be present at every meeting. We would like to know everything about what is going on. It is our dream and our life, and so I am telling you that we will be the ones who listen, who voice their objections, and who make the decisions.
— Keena
