BlockBerry Creative has submitted a petition for Chuu's suspension in future entertainment activities.
Here's what we know so far.
BlockBerry Creative Files Petition to Suspend Chuu's Entertainment Activities
On February 1, it was revealed that a petition was submitted by BlockBerry Creative to suspend Chuu's entertainment activities. According to the Korea Entertainment Management Association, the petition was submitted in December 2022.
Fans expressed that BlockBerry Creative's plan to spread rumors about Chuu didn't go as expected, leading the label to resort in proposing an activity-suspending petition. Others claimed that the agency has gone through such approach to maximize profits from Chuu.
See their comments below:
"So, the Korean Entertainment Management Association is just going to keep power tripping like that? If they really pass the ban to her promotions, you'd know exactly what kind of organization they are."
"Who do they think they are to try to block Chuu like that? This is dumbfounding."
"This is just evil. Why would you take so many kids under you to act like that?"
"It's the 'if I go down, you go down with me' mentality. Agencies will never let go of their artists that easily. A possible breach of contract from the artist's side means money for the company. That's why they'll squeeze as much money out of them as possible."
"Because everything else failed. Spreading rumors about Chuu being rude to staff didn't work, the other members filled an injunction and some of them won. The ones that didn't are still going to file an appeal, the fandom boycott is working, and they had to postpone the comeback. No one is on their side, so they're resorting to low blows like this."
