Core Contents Media sued by Namoo Entertainment over cancelled American concert with Yangpa, T-ara,

[unreal.livejournal.com]

Namoo Entertainment, the company behind the American concert of Core Contents Media (CCM) artists Davichi, T-ara, and Yangpa, has revealed that it filed a compensation lawsuit of 390 million won against the agency.

After the cancellation of the event earlier this year, Namoo Entertainment has filed a lawsuit to the Seoul Central District court, stating that they've suffered damage from the cancellation. The artists were scheduled to partake in a family concert in San Francisco, on January 13th. The event was canceled due to visa problems, which, Namoo Entertainment stated, could have been prevented as the concert was planned more than three months ahead. CCM was said to have waited until five days before the concert to apply for visas, which they didn't get.

A representative from CCM responded, saying that the hosting company usually takes care of visa problems and they failed to do so this time. The representative reacted, saying that instead of CCM being sued, they should sue Namoo Entertainment.

CCM is planning to respond soon, as most of its company officials will be returning from overseas schedules on April 9th.

lol and I thought they cancelled because half the members of t-error were crippled or smth, but then Paris happened and we got pressed again.

At least I got a refund and saw Perfume in concert instead. n____n

The visa are CCM's job, Namu Entertainment is only a concert organizer and promoter.

[4minutesluts.livejournal.com]

it depends on the specific details of the agency/promoter relationship, but either way it would have been specified in a contract so I doubt they'd sue otherwise

[khimia.livejournal.com]

But Namu Entertainment is an American company, CCM would have had to hand over all of there artists personal information such as passport numbers. And didn't CCM said at first that their excuse was injury now all the sudden the whole problem is the VISA and that just a few days before the show?

they had 3 months to get visa's though. CCM is so dumb.

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

Well CCM would have send them the info first.

Hmmm I dunno SM is such a huge company but never learns from their mistakes and continues to do stupid shit on a regular basis lol I don't think CCM could snatch away their beloved no. 1 spot
