[News] 090821 Xiah Junsu to Receive 140 Million Advance from SM?

TVXQ member group Junsu had received an advance of ₩ 45,000,000 from SM a month ago to proceed the lawsuit case against SM which has been outstanding.

This morning on August 21st at Seoul Central District Court was held the first hearing of provisional injunction filed by 3 DBSK members Jaejoong, Junsu, and Yoochun to stop the effect of exclusive contract.

At the trial SM side lawyer revealed, “Junsu received an advance in amount ₩ 45,000,000 from the company on July 15th. Seeing as this was done one month before the trial, it is hard to see it as an action that has nothing to do with the lawsuit.”

Lawyer from DBSK side defended, “The talk about this ₩ 45,000,000 advance in this case is groundless. If that payment ever happened, it was probably to settle his account for income taxes. They only made up story to stir up problem.”

3 DBSK members side also stated, “The members are wondering how much actually their profits. And what we’re talking here is the full earning history along with various costs which the members had been a limited view about it from SM.”

TVXQ’s Xiah Junsu, who is currently in a dispute with his agency said through Sejong that the news report stating he “Received payment of 45 million Won in advance from SM Entertainment a month before the lawsuit” is “completely false.”

SME’s lawyer said at the first hearing today regarding the suspension of the exclusive contract request that, “Xiah Junsu (Kim Junsu)received 45 million Won in advanced payment on July 15th,” and “Seeing as this was done one month before the trial, it is hard to see it as an action that has nothing to do with the lawsuit.” Sejong’s side cuttingly replied to a reporter on the phone that, “That did not happen.”

He said, “If that did happen, it was probably to settle his account for his income taxes,” and “They are being ridiculous by making it seem like Xiah Junsu received that payment to prepare for this trial,” and could not control his anger at the rumor.

He also said, “Ever since they debuted in 2004, SME has been in charge of all tax payments such as the composite income tax regarding TVXQ’s income,” and “The composite income tax is settled depending on how much the group earns for the first half of each year and was given to the members to pay in the form of advanced payments.Xiah Junsu received this money from SME to deal with a problem in his income tax account.”

He also added, “If they reveal that the other members received advanced payment during the same time then this rumor can be taken care of,” and “Xiah Junsu has never taken advanced payment to pay for personal or legal reasons.”

SM Entertainment’s lawyer stated during the first hearing on the 21st that, “Kim Junsu received an advanced payment of 45 million Won.”

T/N: *I know this might be confusing so let me make it clear for you
SME: Kim Junsu took an advanced payment of 45 million Won to pay for his legal actions
TVXQ: Kim Junsu has been given money from SME in the form of an advanced payment ever since the group debuted in 2004 to pay his taxes. SME has taken this and twisted this.*

[News] Xiah Junsu Fanclub’s Critism Over SM’s “Payment in Advance” Statement (August 23)

SM lawyer statement at the first court hearing on August 21st which was revealing that DBSK’s Xiah Junsu had received 45 million won which was believed to be his money source to file the current outstanding lawsuit against SM seemed to fire up the whole DBSK fans especially Xiah Junsu personal fancafe.

SM stated at the court, “Xiah Junsu received 45 million Won in advanced payment on July 15th,” and “Seeing as this was done one month before the trial, it is hard to see that this action has nothing to do with the lawsuit.”

At Xiah Junsu fanclub homepage on the 22th was published article condemning SM for releasing statement that is considered as character attack towards Junsu.


In the article written by the fans, “At the hearing of injunction application case to stop exclusive contract effect, SM said at the court that on July 15th Junsu had received in advance 45 million won from SM. This argument statement was then released publicly through media.” and “However, at the end SM also mentioned so-called sentiment, ‘SM has infinite affection towards DBSK and is seeking a long-term plan and vision to debut DBSK in Hollywood’. Such media-play statements are definitely abominable.”

DBSK lawyer later on clarified that the money was received to settle Junsu’s income tax. “The money was probably to settle his account for income taxes. Ever since DBSK debuted in 2004, SM has been in charge of all tax payments such as the composite income tax regarding DBSK’s income. The composite income tax is settled depending on how much the group earns for the first half of each year and was given to the members to pay in the form of advanced payments.”

Xiah Junsu fanclub explained the reason of their curse to SM for the company’s previous statement. “Because SM’s statement, now the media circulating around have ‘Junsu had received 45 million won from SM” as their headlines, and that’s a serious attack to Junsu’s image. It seems that SM wants people to think that Junsu is somekind person who is crazy and has no self-control over money thus even dare to ask for advance payment before he filed lawsuit against his own agency.”

The fanclub continued, “Xiah Junsu is now known in all over Asia to represent the country. And such accusation will obliterate his well-built image in public.”

“We, as members of Junsu fanclub from all over will never tolerate if due to preservation of company profit, SM breaks the law by insulting individual character of the members.” the fanclub ended.
