In an exclusive interview with Dispatch, FIFTY FIFTY Keena spoke about the provisional injunction they filed against ATTRAKT and how PD Ahn "gaslighted" them into doing it.

FIFTY FIFTY Keena Points PD Ahn Sung Il As Person Who Prompted Team to File Injunction Against ATTRAKT

On October 16, Keena of the global girl group FIFTY FIFTY shocked the music scene when she submitted the withdrawal of her appeal to suspend her contract with her current agency, ATTRAKT.

Earlier in June, all four members filed a provisional injunction to suspend their contracts against the company due to a break of trust and ruined reputations. Although it was initially rejected by the court, the quartet continued their fight and expressed no desire to return to ATTRAKT.

But the tables have turned. Now that Keena not only exited from the lawsuit, she filed but personally contacted CEO Jeon Hong Jun to return to the company, too.

On October 20, Keena sat down for an exclusive interview with Dispatch and revealed never-before-known details about the controversy.

During the talk, Keena mainly revealed that PD Ahn Sung Il, who was FIFTY FIFTY's producer and The Givers CEO, was the person behind why they decided to file the lawsuit.

In particular, prior to filing the injunction, Ahn Sung Il made the members (Saena) fake coronavirus so that they couldn't meet the company, taking advantage of the quarantine period. Keena narrated:

"Ahn PD has proposed a provisional injunction lawsuit. My parents then hired a lawyer. Producer Ahn said, '(I) can't help you in front. Instead, I will provide evidence from behind.' He promised to help.

At the time, Producer Ahn said, 'There is a really big evidence. It's a battle to win no matter what.' But it was almost all talk. He couldn't give us the right data. And then he took his head off."

Eventually, Keena's trust in Ahn PD completely broke after learning from reports that her copyright fee for the hit song, "Cupid," was reduced from 6.5% to 0.5%, stating that her signature was forged.

FIFTY FIFTY Keena Exposes 'Gaslighting' From PD Ahn Sung Il

In the interview, Keena narrated how PD Ahn instilled anxiety in the members after seeing how they are rising in the Billboard. The members were worried about the financial situation of ATTRAKT and how it would prevent them from doing regular activities.

The discord then sparked when Warners contacted PD Ahn to acquire the group for 20 billion won (14.8M USD) to CEO Jeon Hong Jun and make them artists under the label.

Unfortunately, Ahn PD didn't deliver the offer immediately and said that the CEO "rejected," but the members thought it was a nice offer and expressed the desire to proceed with their normal schedules.

Just then, Ahn PD advised them to have their parents talk to him, not knowing that he would let them choose from three options. (1) receive investment from CJ, (2) receive investment from Kakao and (3) apply for a provisional injunction.

However, they could only select the third option as PD Ahn stated that what the investment CEO Jeon will receive will be carried by FIFTY FIFTY as "debts."

Keena then expressed her regret not contacting CEO Jeon first to check the matter and defended her parents.

"Our parents didn't know exactly what 'The Givers' was. They thought he was a member of 'ATTRAKT.' The staff inside is so worried... so they were considerate not to make them embarrassed."

According to Keena, the injunction was the free will of FIFTY FIFTY, but PD Ahn Sung Il's gaslighting played a huge factor in their decision.

Ahn Sung Il to FIFTY FIFTY:

"I raised you. I put you on the Billboard. I filmed the music video with my own money. I bought a song with my own money. CEO Jeon Hong Jun is not interested. I only think about investment. Investment in debt. You have to pay back."
