Youn ha and Lion Media mediation FAILED!


It was reported that the third mediation between Youn-ha and her agency, Lion Media has failed once again.
According to allkpop website, on 12 October, both parties appeared in front of the Seoul Central District Court in an attempt to come to an agreement with regards to a lawsuit Youn-ha filed against Lion Media in which the agency had then responded with a countersuit.
Lion Media's lawyers spoke with reporters after the mediation and stated, "Both parties tried very hard to work on the differences in opinions, but it seems a battle in the court is unavoidable at this point."
They added that Youn-ha's representatives are adamant about their positions, leaving no room for both parties to come to a conclusion.
Youn-ha's lawyers however, stated, "We have nothing to say. It's a sensitive issue and we promise to put out a statement as soon as everything's resolved."
Youn-ha and her agency Lion Media have been in mediation since April after the singer sued the agency and requested for a termination of contract due to questionable validity. In August, Lion Media countersued the singer for approximately USD 1 million due to losses caused by Youn-ha's breach of exclusive contract.
Youn-ha debuted in Japan at the age of 16 in the year 2004, and she had been a part of the agency for nearly 7 years.
