Here’s a legal perspective. The news didn’t say anything on which part of the contract he wanted to terminate. Whole? Some provisions? Even if he wants to terminate a clause or two, it doesn’t always mean he’s getting out. Keep the positive thoughts, ELFs. There’s no proof or official statement of anything yet. Presumption of innocence. When it comes to contract, there is always a dispute settlement clause. It is up to the parties on how to settle their disputes in the future. They can settle them themselves, they can have an arbitration, or they can settle it down in courts. Either way, it’s just a matter of dispute settlement. Going to court is just a way to change a contract. If there indeed exists a problem in the contract, there is still a possibility that they will make a new contract. Therefore, it’s really a premature assumption that if Hangeng files a lawsuit, then it means he wants to get out. VERY premature.

This is the legal document SAID to be the actual request of the termination http://i50.tinypic.com/2z512s6.jpg Geng didn’t sign the paper himself but it was his lawyer, Kim Jin Wook. His lawyer HAS the rights to sign the paper on behalf of hankyung.

As for the law procedure, what happened today is merely the admission of the lawsuit. The legal document released on the internet is just a common procedure to note down that the lawsuit has been given to court. That legal document is NOT the lawsuit file itself. It’s just a proof that the lawsuit has been given to the court. The court itself still has to PROCESS it and DECIDE whether they’re going to accept the lawsuit or not.

At 6PM, SME released a statement, saying that they will be in touch with Hankyung to confirm the news and converse with him to fix things up, “For the sake of Super Junior, we will resolve this through a dialogue.” (Source: STAR News).

Kyuhyun just updated his cyworld with a diary entry HERE “Even a beast don’t bite the hand that feeds one… I can not understand…”

After an hour or so, Kyu hides his diary entry.. probably due to the amount of attention it gets from the media
