Lee Mi Sook Must Pay But Not What Her Agency Demands

Actress Lee Mi Sook felt she did not owe her former management agency anything but the courts disagreed.

On July 25, the Seoul High Court ruled that the star of the KBS drama "You're The Best Lee Soon Shin" must pay her former management agency around $110,000 for breaching a four-year contract that she signed in 2006 and ended in 2009. This decision ended several years of legal wrangling between the actress and her agency, which involved lawsuits, counter-suits and appeals.

Her former agency, Contents Entertainment, was not happy with this week's ruling because they claim that she owes them twice that amount.

 "Lee Mi Sook violated her exclusive contract with us and signed another exclusive contract with Hoya Spotainment," said the CEO of Contents Entertainment. "As a result, she must pay Contents Entertainment 20 percent of the profit after in her remaining contract with the company, which is 300 million Korean won (almost $300,00)."
