Latest News
After deciding to leave GI, One Ket has not scheduled any activity or promotion as an idol or to continue with her solo career. On February 26th, 2015, GI’s One Ket released a statement that she has reported Simtong Entertainment as her agency for poor management and One Ket demands justice for it all and hopes for the best. While girl group GI released their 3rd digital single album on February 25th, 2015, it was belatedly known that some members filed a lawsuit for termination of contracts against their agency. The agency Simtong Entertainment said, “GI members Aram and One Ket requested the termination of their exclusive contract last year due to conflicts between members and delayed album release. Aram filed a lawsuit against her agency and OneCat is preparing a lawsuit,” they explained. In this regard, Shim Jae-hyup, CEO of Simtong Entertainment said, “If content produced by a small agency with enormous investment costs goes wrong, it is a reality that the company itself faces a crisis of existence. Also, it is out of common sense to want to terminate the contract unilaterally without any responsibility. I will go to lawsuit according to legal procedures,” he said. Meanwhile, the agency released GI’s 3rd digital single “Echo” on February 25th, 2016. It is a medium-tempo song in the R&B genre of hip-hop with a popular melody instead of the strong hip-hop feeling, and was recorded before some members left the team.
