Update: Cube Entertainment Releases Statement On Lai Kuanlin's Request For Contract Termination

Updated July 20 8 p.m. KST: 

Cube Entertainment has released an official statement on Lai Kuanlin’s request for contract termination.

Hello, this is Cube Entertainment.

It is true that we received a letter of notification about the termination of our exclusive contract with our artist, Lai Kuanlin, from a legal representative claiming to represent him.

However, nothing has occurred between the agency and Lai Kuanlin to give grounds for contract termination, so we are currently verifying the authenticity of the content in the letter of notification as well as whether Lai Kuanlin’s legal representative has the power of attorney.

As an agency, we have always carried out our duties in ensuring that Lai Kuanlin, ever since his debut, could come into his own as an artist that receives love from the public.

If there is no evidence of problems with the agency, then we will take legal action under due process of law.
