Singer Lee Moo-jin has filed a petition for an injunction to suspend the validity of his exclusive contract with his agency.

According to NEWSIS on the 27th, the Seoul Central District Court's Civil Collegiate Panel No. 50 (Presiding Judge Park Hyung-jun) will hold a hearing today at around 10:50 a.m. on Lee Moo-jin's petition to suspend the validity of his exclusive contract with entertainment agency Big Planet Made.

Lee Moo-jin previously notified Big Planet Made of contract termination in March. Subsequently, on the 7th, he filed a petition for an injunction to suspend the validity of his exclusive contract against his agency, Big Planet Made. The reason for the petition is that he has not received settlement payments for a certain period.

Lee Moo-jin's legal representative explained, "We have not received settlement payments corresponding to the second to fourth quarters of last year and the first quarter of this year," adding, "Although the contract termination has been notified and the matter is effectively concluded, we filed the lawsuit to obtain an official judgment from the court."

The legal representative for Big Planet Made stated, "We have no objection to the claim regarding the suspension of contract validity," and "We intend to accept Lee Moo-jin's petition."

Lee Moo-jin gained recognition by placing third in JTBC's 'Sing Again' Season 1. He signed an exclusive contract with Big Planet Made in February 2022.

Meanwhile, departures of artists from Big Planet Made and its parent company, One Hundred Label, have been occurring frequently recently. Taemin and Lee Seung-gi have transferred to other agencies, and the court has also granted the petition for an injunction to suspend the validity of the exclusive contract filed by the group The Boyz against One Hundred Label.
