Date 2009.9.9

1. Thank you for showing much interest towards 2009 DREAM Concert.

2. Korean Entertainment Producers Association will become organizer of 2009 DREAM Concert.

As was reported in Japan, TVXQ lawsuit has already been gathering a lot of attention.
About this unforeseen incident, Korean Entertainment Producers Association and SM Entertainment has been having discussions in regard to former performers matter, and currently meet in the decision that under present condition, starring TVXQ in the concert is very difficult, therefore for everyone who is looking forward to TVXQ performance, we’re really sorry and sincerely apologize.

3. However, the possibility performance still depends upon the trial result of Korean Court. By that time, we’ll officially announce the decision yet again.

Because the 2009 DREAM concert is Korean biggest concert, we would like you to enjoy the stage of splendid artists whom Korea is proud of at Sangnam World Cup Stadium, South Korea.

4. As an addition, we’d like to inform you that BIG BANG will perform with no problem.

5. We’re so pleased with everyone who had been working hard to prepare for DREAM Concert, thank you very much.

I can't lie, but #4 made me smile and give a little thumbs up here in my cube.

ETA: There still hasn't been an announcement from the courts? It is no longer 9/11 in Korea.

ETA2: Go to bed woman.

The only fucking news so far

IS NOT NEWS AT ALL.

The three members filed this case against SM Entertainment and the first hearing happened on August 21st with the Courts ruling that all relevant documents must be handed in by September 11th.

At the time, the Courts statd, “We will end this hearing here and after reading all documents that are to be handed in by September 11th, we will come to a decision.”

Now the two sides have stepped into a stage where all the documents are submitted and all they can do is wait. In the case of a Exclusive Contract Suspension Request, the verdict date is not set in advance so it is highly likely that neither side will appearing in court again.

An SME representative stated, “All we can do is wait for the verdict after submitting all our documents in by the 11th. We do not know when the results will be coming out.”

EDIT: Yay! Bigbang! I really hope they'd perform 'Lollipop' with 2NE1. shirtless.

DBSK has been uncertain right from Lawsuit Day 1.

[kurikuribebi]

Yay @ #4.

At least I still have one boy band that I can cling hopelessly to.

Erm question: Why didn't they answer anything about 2PM?

Actually I will understand why if they choose not to perform at Dream Concert
though I think Korean Hottest will throw a huge fit

[chalakchalak.livejournal.com]

This dream concert isn't sounding too happy to me. Poot.

[stage-persona.livejournal.com]

Not a big surprise, is it?
well...
at least I can smile Big Bang will preform ^^
I join the club who want them shirtless...

[-ochre.livejournal.com]

To all those who want to see Big Bang shirtless: Man, I don't know if I want to see Seungri shirtless D:

I mean, Taeyang okay........

[finchburg.livejournal.com]

To be honest, I don't want to see Dae shirtless. I have no doubts that it would look like a deli counter (all those cuts) but when that polaroid of the YG fitness wall leaked it just looked so odd.

Because Seungri's torso is longer I don't think it would be so bad.... GD was a pleasant surprise. Top, I'm okay with that remaining a mystery.

[honeydice.livejournal.com]

... I'm not happy.

[telrunyaaa.livejournal.com]

[magic-jungle.livejournal.com]

[prince-of-lies.livejournal.com]

Does anyone know how people in the US can buy tickets to the dream concert?

[k-ra23.livejournal.com]

This year sucks for Korean bands and music...TVXQ lawsuits, Jaebeom leaving 2PM, G-Dragon and his "plagiarizing" (again)....aw man. ):

I wish the bands that are performing perform well though!

[stage-persona.livejournal.com]

don't forget Daesung accident....
this year really sucks

[zagero.livejournal.com]

So Daesung is well enough to perform already? He was in the accident month ago. What happened to the 6-8 weeks of recovery time? :/

[super-genin.livejournal.com]

Dream concert is still quite some time from now, so I think Daesung will be recovered by then.

[kellygreen.livejournal.com]

This would have to happen after I moved back to Canada. F U, fate.
