[TRANS] 091126 TVXQ Fans Submit Retaliation to SM's Statement

TVXQ fans submitted a civil appeal to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism stating that SM Entertainment began selling tickets for TVXQ's Shenzhen concert before receiving permission from the Chinese government. To this, SM explained that, "We asked the concert planning agency in charge of TVXQ's Asia Tour, and they said all legal permission and procedures pertaining to ticket sales for the Shenzhen concert had no problems whatsoever." However, fans are stating that SM's statement is a lie.

Recently in an interview with a journalist, SM stated, "The 'Nanjing Asia Pacific Correspondence of Culture Exchange Corporation' was informed by the People's Republic of China's Ministry of Culture that 'Permission is granted for TVXQ's Guangdong (Shenzhen) concert' on the 21st of October. The Chinese agency also received the 'Ratification by the Ministry of Culture of Korean TVXQ's Concert in Guangdong (Shenzhen) [2009] Number 2146."

Therefore, SM stated that ticket sales began on October 21st, when Dream Maker was given permission to do so.

However, fans stated that, "'Nanjing Asia Pacific Correspondence of Culture Exchange Corporation' gave the authorization to sell tickets to 'Piao' on September 30th," and "Ticket sales actually began before this date," and presented evidence. The actual date of the transfer of the authorization of ticket sales did indeed begin on September 30th.

Fans stated, "'Piao' believed that by being given the authorization to sell tickets, permission for the concert had already been given. Therefore, they did their job and began selling tickets. However, September 30th is quite far away from October 21st. Therefore, SM Entertainment blatantly disregarded China's procedures for such an event."

Fans also stated, "For the Chinese companies, as they work with concerts in China, they are allowed to draw up contracts regarding sponsors regardless of whether or not permission has been given. However, if the Chinese company, SM and Dream Maker are planning to hand over the authorization of ticket sales, they should have waited until after permission was give before doing so."

To collect evidence that ticket sales began before permission was granted by the Chinese government, fans presented receipts and lists of order confirmation of fans who had bought tickets for the concert.

According to this evidence, the payment bank account and money transfer receipt are both listed under the date October 11th. Other ticket confirmation lists are even dated as October 5th. This proves that ticket sales were occurring before permission from the Chinese government was given.

Fans stressed that, "If this isn't a violation of ticket sales, then what is?" and "This proves that ticket sales began even though permission wasn't give by the Chinese government."

Fans also said, "The Shenzhen concert is a concert directly linked with SM," and "No explanation can let SM escape from their responsibility for going ahead with a concert regardless of the fact that the government had not granted permission yet."

On the 16th, regarding TVXQ fans' civil appeal titled 'SM Entertainment's Disregard for the Chinese Administrative Procedures may obstruct Culture Exchanges between Korea and China', the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism stated, "In the case of China, a license system is used for foreign concerts," and "As you have stated, the actions of disregarding a country's appropriate procedures may have a negative effect on the growth of the Hallyu Wave, the image of the Korean music market and the nation as a whole, as well as the cultural exchange between the two nations."

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism also stated, "We will call a representative of SM forth to clarify and set regulations so that such an event will not occur again."

[NEWS] 091124 Shenzhen Concert Note of Confirmation Signatures were Forged

 

-Note of Confirmation-


-Name:
-Personal Number:
-Phone Number:

I, the writer of this note of confirmation, followed orders from ooo of SM Entertainment in March of 2009 and signed the documents for the Shenzhen concert instead of the three members. In signing these documents, neither the writer of this note nor SM Entertainment received permission beforehand and afterwards from the three members to use their signatures. The Shenzhen concert was completely unknown to the three members at the time of the lawsuit and it was confirmed after the lawsuit began.

Written date: November 15, 2009 Sunday
Writer:

Three members of group ‘TVXQ’, Xiah Junsu, YoungWoong Jaejoong and Micky Yoochun, who are locked in a legal dispute with SM Entertainment, has stated that their signatures were forged on the note of confirmation for the Shenzhen concert and this is expected to cause major ripples in the case.

Regarding SM Entertainment’s stance that ‘The three members suddenly notified SM of their nonattendance two weeks before the Shenzhen concert which was to be held on November 21st and there are no legal problems with our ticket sales,’ the three members’ side stated on the 24th that, “The China Shenzhen Concert note of confirmation holds signatures of the three members that we are attempting to prove were forged.”

They also stated, “Some Chinese and Korean fans notified us that the signatures used on the note of confirmation looked forged, and after thorough examination, we were able to know that the signatures were indeed false,” and “SM Entertainment stated that there were no legal problems regarding their ticket sales of TVXQ’s Shenzhen Concert, yet they forged the members’ signatures for this.”


The note of confirmation for Chinese performances is a document that proves that the musician will be attending the event through their signature. This document is placed where tickets are sold so that the consumers will know that the singer will be attending.

The three members’ side also stated, “In the case of the Shenzhen concert, the three did not sign the documents saying that they would attend but SM had someone forge the signatures,” and “The person who forged the signatures submitted a hand-written note stating that he was ordered by a representative of SM to forge the signatures.”

They also stated that, “SM added this Shenzhen concert into the members’ schedule after the agreement they made with the three members that all pre-planned activities would be performed. They are trying to distort the facts to make it seem like it was an event planned from before the trial,” and “The three members have asked SM to tell them of the 배경 of the forgery of the signatures as well as to reveal the full contents of the Shenzhen concert contract. The three hope to dispel any misunderstandings the fans may have felt from this happening.”

They also released the real signatures of the three members along with the fake signatures on the note of confirmation.

Before this, SM stated that the three members knew of the Shenzhen Concert before the exclusive contract suspension request was submitted and that they pulled out of the event suddenly two weeks before the concert which was why the event was canceled. SM also stated that the three members never asked to see the details of the Shenzhen concert contract.

[NEWS] 091124 Selling Tickets Without Government's Permission, TVXQ Fans Are Complaining

TVXQ fans has filed a complaint to SM (CEO Kim Young-min) to relevant department about the starting of ticket sales of Shenzhen concert scheduled on last November 21st before getting any permission from China government.

On last November 16th a complaint file entitled “SM Entertainment ignores China’s Administrative Procedure-A concern to China Cultural Exchange Inhibition” was received by Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism from TVXQ fansite DNBN.

“According to the complaint filed in homepage of Department of Cultural Affairs, the official approval for TVXQ concert that was supposedly held in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, China was out on October 28th, however the ticket sales was already accomplished at the end of September, eventually SM had sold concert tickets without any permission from the Chinese government.” the fansite pointed out their complaints.

“Eventhough now there’s a ticket refund for the audiences that are supposed to go to the concert hall, however it’s still not considered transportation costs, visa fee to enter China for especially foreign audiences including the opportunity costs damage everyone has suffered.”

(the screen capture of TVXQ’s fans complain in Ministry of Culture website)


In particular they continued, “SM ignored the administrative procedure as they announced the concert to public in the process of China’s approval. This unreasonable South Korea Entertainment ticket sales could leads to national image damage as the Chinese government would think other South Korea singers may do the same act of holding concert before getting any permission.”

“Usually SM artists’ concert is held at least 4-6 months after gaining the permission, thus this process of Shenzhen concert is definitely unreasonable.”

Towards this accusation, SM official responded on the 24th to Star Money Today, “TVXQ’s 3rd Asia Concert in Shenzhen is their 12th stops which was planned already when the contract with Dream Maker was signed back then in July 2008. Under the agreement, all aspects that are related to the concert including ticket sales and permission approval from local government are obliged to Dream Maker.” he said.

“Therefore, the claim of selling of TVXQ concert in Shenzhen ticket without any permission from Chinese government shall not be directed to SM.” he strongly refuted. “We also had contacted Dream Maker earlier about the plan to conduct the last November 21st-scheduled TVXQ Asian Tour in Shenzhen and they confirmed that there’s no problem at all in ticket sales and any related legal procedures.”

Dream Maker, in other side, explained, “For this last stop of concert in China, the Ministry of Culture of RRC autorizhed TVXQ’s concert in last October 21st. ‘The content of Korean TVXQ Guangdong (Shenzhen) concert agreement is ratified by the Ministry of Culture [2009] No. 2146′”

SM said, “(related to fans’ complaint) the permission approved by the Cultural Affairs of Guangdong Province issued on October 28th was unrelated to the ticket sales permission, it’s merely about visas for foreign artists which will perform and relevant documents and information submission.” he also added, “Because the cancelation of concert in Shenzhen, we’re now in the situation where have to pay for the damages. As we already sold the tickets, canceling a concert is definitely not our intention. In the future we hope there’s no more false claim like this being refrained.”

[TRANS] 091119 Notice About Shenzhen Concert Refund

广州明星巨典文化艺术公司
深圳稻草综合制作有限公司*

The TVXQ Shenzhen Concert that was originally planned to be held on 091121 at the Shenzhen sports stadium, due to reasons could not be held on time. Now, my company, SM Entertainment and the members of TVXQ are holding discussions on whether it is possible for the concert to be postponed in order to calm the fans down and ascertain the safety of the society.

From 091121 to 100120, fans who have bought the tickets can choose to return to the original ticketing source to gain a refund or wait for the conclusion of the discussion my company, SM Entertainment and the TVXQ members are having. If the concert is postponed, the tickets can still be used with it's original seat. If you have any questions regarding the refunding process, we will officially release a notice on the 19th and hope that the fans will give a call to the China ticketing service at 4006103721 so that we can do a detailed explanation.

We have caused many inconveniences to the Guangdong cultural ministry, safety of society as well as many organizers and departments and we sincerely apologize. *

[TRANS] 091116 Shenzhen Concert Tickets Were Sold Before SM Attained Government Permit

The Chinese government performance permit was signed and issued on October 28th, 2009, while SM started selling the tickets for the performance in September after the provisional disposition was filed, which means they started selling the tickets before obtaining the Chinese government permit.

In the following picture are two permit. The first one is obtained on October 28th for the Shenzhen concert, it was then updated on November 3rd. The second half is the permit for the Bejing concert. For both, the dates the permits were attained have been underlined.

So basically, SM began selling the tickets before they were certain whether the concert will happen or not. Even though SM specifically said they knew about all the stops in June 2008 for the tour, there’s no way they could have been certain of this particular concert until October 28th of this year.

[TRANS] 091114 Chinese Cassiopeia Plan To Create Their Own Concert

 

Would you be willing to attend this type of concert?

I’m sure that everyone knows about the cancellation of the ShenZhen concert. During these times of doubt, our team has been thinking of a way to lesson everyone’s suffering and lift their spirits. There’s no need for more words, only determination and faith, along with the phrase, “We are always standing by TVXQ”. With these thoughts in mind, we came to an idea. Though the venue will decrease in size, though there won’t be fancy lights and blasting speakers, though there will be no sight of our boys….there will be a unity of loving hearts singing and shining in place of our boys. My fellow sisters, would you like to attend this type of concert?
A lot of our sisters have brought plane tickets which they can no longer refund. We refuse to let those tickets go in vain. Even though you may not see our boys, we would like to create an unforgettable memory. So, we would like to propose an idol-less concert full of love.

————————————————————————————————————————————
VENUE: A stadium in Shenzhen (we are currently searching, however, since we don’t have a staff who lives in Shenzhen, if anyone has a recommendation, please contact us at tvxqbar@qq.com)
TIME: November 21st, 7pm
ORGANIZATION: 百度东方神起吧 (TVXQ Baidu)

————————————————————————————————————————————-
We will announce the door prices based on the venue we have found. We hope that everyone could be understanding. Drinks and snacks will be prepared and our “Stand by you” project will be released as well. We will arrange by the door for everyone to leave a message to the boys. We will then mail the recordings of this ‘fan event’ along with all the messages to the boys.

————————————————————————————————————————————–
To put it simply, this is more like a huge fan event, we just hope that everyone could find a silver lining out of the disaster regarding the Shenzhen concert. We want to show the boys that, “See, we can wait for you. Even if you can’t make it here, we can still have fun. So don’t worry about us, just focus on your own happiness!”
The event’s theme will be the same as their concert. We can still sing together and cheer together. We will broadcast the PV we prepared for 6 month, the Chinese version of ‘Proud’. This was originally planned to be included in the 6th anniversary of this forum, consider it an early gift.

—————————————————————————————————————————————
We need to inform everyone that since this announcement was very sudden, our own sources are also limited. We are not sure if this event will succeed, but we promise everyone, that we will do our very best.
We are currently working on the details now, if there are any good advice at all, please email us at tvxqbar@qq.com

[TRANS] 091113 Chinese Fans' Response to Cancellation of Shenzhen Concert

This morning we received news about the cancellation of the Shenzhen concert. Considering the court dispute at the moment, this wasn't a decision not thought of.

We cannot say "everyone please calm down, please don't say anything bad", because that isn't facing the truth. However, we hope no one says anything that would hurt the members of TVXQ, doing something that shows you don't understand the five members. The people we love, they did not do anything wrong. I hope everyone sees and clearly understands this point.

The Shenzhen concert was decided upon by SME and the organizer after the three members proposed the lawsuit. If everything was normal, activities organized for the artist by the company acceptable, but no matter when, it needs to respect the artists wills and thoughts. Artists are not tools, they are human too. SME had secretly accepted the offer of overseas activities without discussing the details with the five members, this action is not respectful to the five members of TVXQ.

At the same time, because of the decision between SME and the Chinese concert organizer, it has led to losses for the fans, and this is not forgivable. Because of SME's own decision that led to economic and psychological losses of Chinese and overseas fans, we should receive a proper explanation and compensation.

Since the start of the lawsuit, SME had pushed all the blame upon the members, using unrelated topics to cover the real problem, making all of TVXQ's fans feel very disappointed and angry. Being Korea's top agency, not respecting group members, ignoring fans reasonable requests, and during the lawsuit which started as a simple issue that could of ended well, but didn't because of the various disruptions and accusations created against the three members. This issue not only led to the five members of TVXQ go under stress and pain, but it also led fans to fall into despair, to the point where the fans split. Actions like these make people 'angry'. [T/N im guessing the meaning of it, it was a saying >_<]

For this times Shenzhen concert, SME again pushes the blame towards the members, making us fans feel very disappointed and angry, we do not hold anymore trust or hope towards SME. It is not the members fault, yet they have them to shoulder the responsibility, letting them face criticisms, this is what the company that brought them up do. This is unacceptable.

We cannot represent everyone, but representing all the fans supportive of TVXQ from Baidu, we cannot forgive SME's continual injuries and stress given to the three members. The cancellation of the Shenzhen concert is all because of SME's contract signed with the organiser, without consulting the members, it has no relation to any of the TVXQ members. SME, please stop bringing out all these rumours, which end up hurting the members and splitting the fans.

On another note, we feel dissatisfied with the Chinese organiser of the Shenzhen concert due to their signed documents lying to the fans. Even if we understand that the project needs to have communication with SME, but to make an irresponsible promise with the fans, they too have an undeniable responsibility.

[TRANS] TVXQ's Participation in The Concert at Shenzhen, Last Stop For The Tour

Confirmed: TVXQ will participate in the concert at Shenzhen

Before the ruling, all TVXQ members had signed as a confirmation that they will be participating in the Shenzhen Concert. This event will definitely not be affected by the conclusion of the lawsuit. Kim Jaejoong, Jung Yunho, Park Yoochun, Kim Junsu and Shim Changmin had all participated.

Regarding Kim Jaejoong’s, Park Yoochun’s, and Kim Junsu’s ability to choose their own activities, we have contacted the relevant person in-charge in SM Entertainment; the responsible person said that all five members of TVXQ have deep feelings towards Chinese Cassiopeia. The five of them could not bear to hurt their fans’ feelings. “Last 2nd of October, at the Shanghai Concert encore stage, the whole audience (Cassiopeia) was holding “Miduhyo” cloths to express their support, and this scene had touched everyone; TVXQ is not an exception. All five members will participate in the Shenzhen Encore Concert.”

Confirmed: Shenzhen Concert, last stop for the tour

Since the Shenzhen stop was decided by both sides before the verdict had been signed, the performance will not be affected, regardless of the outcome of the court’s decision. TVXQ will bring a full line-up scheduled appearance in Shenzhen to the Chinese fans, bringing the most exciting concert encore.

Regarding the rumours indicating that there would still be Chengdu, Guangzhou and Nanjing stops after Shenzhen, the company stated that “TVXQ’s concert in Shenzhen to be held on the 21st is definitely the 3rd Asia Tour final station. They will perform a complete line-up, and paint a successful closing for the 3rd Asia Tour.”
