Pretty sure they negotiated a price and Got7 with their investors met the price.  It's still unusual that a company sold anything, but JYP is an unusual label in today's world, and Got7 has plenty of money and expect to make more.  It's in their prospectus.

Money would have been involved, but I'm talking about the actual transfer of the trademark. In the past, the group had no right to a transfer and JYP could just refuse to transfer the rights. 

 

Since the Korean FTC revised the standard contract a while ago, once all members leave the company, the group is entitled to have the trademark transferred by law, so JYP can't deny them that request. All JYP can do is ask a "fair" price for the trademark rights, if they have invested in the brand etc. which we know they have. So I guess that's the only loophole if they wanted to prevent it. Set a high transfer price. But in this case, I guess they didn't think it was worth fighting to hold on to the trademark.

 

The FTC is the same agency that required all contracts to be limited to 7 years, after the SM/JYJ mess in 2009/10. They are also looking at making sure idols get paid for fancam view revenue etc too.

Because she's one of the most popular members and basically the face of TWICE? :rip:

Jihyo has technically had a solo already so I'm not pressed - but she needs to come next plz.

Well it was close between Jihyo and Nayeon as to who got the first solo, so I'm guessing Jihyo is next

The ambiguous nature of entertainment accounting towards setting a "fair" price would make a law like that toothless.  As it should be.

I agree with you on the former part of your post but not the latter. I think any attempt to make the industry's laws fairer for the idols is applaudable. If anything, they should have given that requirement more bite.

Without companies, there are no idols.  The kids are so concerned about their faves being over worked, they don't see the ones who are really over worked are the staffs and the managers and the producers who don't have to worry about their face looking puffy the next day.  And there is definitely a different culture at JYP that's different from the other conglomerate agencies.  Maybe it's because their founder is in a cult.  But whatever it is, if anyone thinks it's not the most efficient way to do business in a people business, they just need to look at the recent response Japan had to him to see it's still a good way to do business.

OK I kicked a girl's backpack from behind in 1st grade because I didn't like her. I am now the least aggressive, conflict-avoidant faguette I know.

(but also whoever said they should replace her with Kawaguchi Yurina is onto something :clap3:)

just got back from my vacay to LA seeing Twice on Sunday. :jonny5:

 

Best concert I've ever been. It was AMAZING. The girl's are even more surreal in person. :jonny5:

Glad you enjoyed :jonny: they’re truly amazing :jonny:

 

honestly, getting Twice individual insta accounts and Nayeon solo news in the same week feels like a dream :jonny2: i mean JYPig is 5 years too late but better late than never I guess

With the BIGBANG and 2NE1 thing. Kpop in general wasn't segregated at all during the 2nd gen. Kpop started to become very segregated during the 3rd generation, due to the industry getting more conservative. Imagine if a boy group today were to release a music video like BIGBANG's "Bae Bae" or any other video from them :skull:

 

Bobby have also explained on how they aren't allowed to interact with BLACKPINK. He also talks about how YG idols are not allowed to have a driver's license or leave their dorms, without reporting to the YG staff :rip: People aren't joking when they say BLACKPINK are rotting up in their YG dorms :rip: YG is truly the worst company, wow 

And yet Bobby is a dad now. Just because they something on TV doesn't mean it's true :skull:

Their Korean members don't have the visual for acting.

The only one who does is Tzuyu too bad she's Chinese :cm:

I think Jeongyeon definitely has that actress vibe and she could have been an ideal one back in 2017-18. But yeah no other Korean member strikes me as an acting visual.
