Singer Lim Young-woong, who won the’APAN TOP10′ category at the ‘2020 APAN Music Awards’, was the only singer in the 10 teams that was controversial, and the Korea Entertainment Management Association (hereinafter referred to as the Yonsei Association) and Lim Young-woong, who hosted the awards ceremony, were controversial. The New Era Project, which is in charge of management, argues that they are responsible for each other.
At the ‘2020 APAN Music Awards’ held on the 24th,’APAN TOP10′ was selected as the hottest 10 teams of artists who shined in 2020. In this category, GOT7, Kang Daniel, The Boys, Monsta X, BTS, Seventeen, IZone, N City 127, Lim Young-woong and Twice were honored with the awards.
However, in the video introducing the top 10 protagonists, Lim Young-woong was not the only one to appear. Afterwards, the controversy grew as Lim Young-woong fans raised questions about the issue and demanded clarification.
In this regard, Lim Young-woong’s agency New Era Project officially entered the’Mr. Trot’ fan cafe on the 27th and said, “It is not true that the artist introduction video was omitted because the material of Young-Woong Lim was not provided in the New Era Project.” “Music Awards” also revealed that there was no external confirmation that we could not produce the video because we did not provide data.” He added, “As a management worker, I am deeply sorry for the series of situations.”
However, the next day, on the 28th, the Yonsei Association opposed the clarification of the New Era Project. Yeonmaehyeop said, “Because Lim Young-woong is a popular culture artist who has given the people great power in difficult times, he has continuously requested encouraging appearances and participation.” Initially, he tried to recruit for the awards ceremony that was scheduled to be held in November of last year, but he was notified that he was unable to attend, and he continued to request appearances even after the awards ceremony changed to January this year. However, he explained that there was a fact that the New Era Project communicated through the writers that it was difficult for Lim Young-woong to attend directly.
Yeonmaehyeop said, “The production team once again requested to New Era about whether to conduct an interview with Lim Young-woong’s appearance and award speech,” said “New Era said that he would give an answer after the meeting, and contacted him several times, but only received the same reply. “He said. In addition, he told a third party, not his agency, whether to use the introductory material necessary for the awards ceremony, and insisted that he only responded to the request for an interview with the awards impression, saying,’We are in a meeting, so please wait.
In addition, the Yonmaehyup said, “The day before the pre-recording, in order to receive a video from the New Era side to accept the prerequisites, first of all, in order to receive a video of the awards of the popular culture artist, Young-woong Lim of the New Era side suddenly received a one-sided notification to the awards crew. I was confused about the conditions of the awards speech interview, but I faced a difficult reality that undermined the authority and the purpose of the tradition of the awards ceremony,” he said. “However, for the completion of the APAN TOP10 selection, which is an important part of the awards ceremony, I made a difficult decision that I had to accept. It was done.” According to the Yonsei Association, by accepting the conditions of New Era, the image of Lim’s award was delivered and broadcast, but materials such as the introduction video were not continuously received.
The Yonsei Association was able to smoothly process the video data in the awards ceremony after receiving consent and permission with the cooperation of each agency, and the remaining nine people were missing only the data of Young-Woong Lim from the New Era side. All of the management companies were able to prepare for the awards ceremony with active cooperation.” On January 25th, the New Era side will send the material of Lim Young-woong to the production company through the APAN replay video, so there is a fact that it has made a request to re-edit it so that it can be broadcast.
Yeonmaehyeop said, “There is a fact that the New Era side has forced the APAN organizer to post an apology in order to take over the responsibility of the New Era side in response to the criticism of Lim Young-woong fans. The fact that APAN organizers suggested reasonable and smooth communication in the sense that the lack of smooth communication between the organizer and the management company could end with mutual responsibility, but the fact that New Era recognized it as an unacceptable problem and rejected it. In addition, in order to correctly convey the misconduct that neglects the commercial intention of the industry in terms of the truthfulness of New Era, this association is trying to reveal the truth or not. In the future, the New Era side undermines the order of the industry. In the absence of an official sincere apology, all related data will be released.”
The following is the full text of the admissions of the Yonsei Association.
Korea Entertainment Management Association, 2020 APAN MUSIC AWARDS’APAN TOP10′ winner Lim Young-woong, a popular culture artist, expressed his position on the truth about the video-related facts
The 2020 APAN Music Awards, held on January 24th, was hosted/organized by the Association and
Starting with the support of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the national government, Korea Entertainment Producers Association, Korea Music Industry Association, Korea Popular Culture and Arts Industry Federation, Korea Management Association, etc. The slogan’Thank You’ is the first integrated music awards officially recognized by related organizations, and the slogan’Thank You’ to express gratitude and consolation to Korean fans who love and support K-POP artists, as well as Korean people who are tired and exhausted by the aftermath of Corona 19, and Korean Wave fans around the world. This awards ceremony was designed to celebrate and encourage the hard work of K-POP artists and those in the pop culture and arts planning industry who discovered and nurtured them, as well as to promote the status of K-POP artists to the world. .
‘APAN TOP10′, an important award of the 2020 APAN Music Awards, is the most important part of the awards ceremony, which will be honored as an artist of the 10 hottest teams of 2020, and’APAN TOP10′ is a polite popular vote and sound source from fans. It is an honorable award that selects and awards the 10 most active and hottest artists in 2020, determined through fair and objective screening based on the record sales performance and the public value of APAN AWARDS. It was one of the winners of APAN TOP10’. One of the hottest hot issues of 2020, Youngwoong Lim, a popular culture artist, has continuously requested encouraging appearances and participation because he is a popular culture artist who has given the people great strength to the difficult times of coronavirus in Korea. In relation to the request for cooperation with the awards ceremony video, which is essential for the successful hosting of the APAN awards ceremony, the misconception that promotes misunderstanding and distrust of the New Era Project (hereinafter referred to as New Era), the management company of the popular culture artist Youngwoong Lim, who is completely different from the position of the association, the APAN organizer. It is not possible to observe the deterioration of the purpose of the awards ceremony due to the actions, so regardless of the exact contents and the purpose of the awards ceremony, we can no longer see the situation caused by the wrong actions of the new era of Lim’s agency, so based on accurate facts and truths. Correct it correctly.
In 2020, popular culture artist Lim Young-woong was awarded the’APAN TOP10′, an important award for this awards ceremony.
Due to the prominence of the award, several new eras in charge of the management of Yeongwoong Lim were opened to request an advance recruitment.
In consideration of the busy schedule of Lim Young-woong from before the month, we have requested a recruitment for attending the awards ceremony. Not only the writers who were in charge of the awards ceremony, but also entertainment officials and industry managers.
New Era was contacted through various channels, and the association faithfully carried out all proceedings related to recruitment.
There is a fact that I did. In this regard, the information presented below is related to the facts the association intends to disclose.
At the APAN Music Awards, which was planned to be held from November 28 to 29, 2020, we received a notice that it was difficult for Lim Young-woong to attend the awards ceremony due to the New Era concert schedule. At this time, the awards ceremony was delayed twice due to the increase in social distancing due to the government’s policy due to Corona 19, but it was difficult to change the schedule from January 23 to 24 to proceed with the APAN Awards. Therefore, there was a fact that the New Era side continuously requested for recruitment by Lim Young-woong, one of the top 10 winners, but the New Era side communicated through the writers that it was difficult for Lim Young-woong to participate in person. Accordingly, the production team once again requested to Newera about whether to conduct an interview with Lim Young-woong’s appearance and award speech, but the agency Newera said they would give an answer after the meeting, and contacted several times, but received only the same reply.
In addition, permission was requested for the use of necessary materials for the awards ceremony related to APAN. Since ㅇㅇㅇㅇ owns the authority for all materials and contents related to Lim Young-woong from the agency’s New Era official, we must ask for consent and receive only the same reply as the fact that we confirmed the permission from New Era. New Era, an agency that has exclusive rights as an employee of the pop culture and arts planning business, is puzzled by the answer to ask for permission from a third party to use the portrait rights photos and video contents, rather than the agency’s authority, whether or not to use the basic exclusive rights data. I am now revealing that it was so. In addition, there is a fact that the agency New Era repeats the request materials of the production team, such as an award testimony and interviews, and only repeats the answer to wait for the meeting.
In order to receive the honor of receiving the APAN TOP10 award for Lim Young-woong at this awards ceremony, the association has continued to request for public relations in a position waiting for the answer of the success of the appearance in order to repay the sincerity of the fans who showed their sincere affection by participating in the vote. There is a fact. From this, in order to receive a video from New Era on the day before the pre-recording, a unilateral notification to accept the prerequisites was sent to the awards crew to receive a video of the award of Lim Young-woong, a popular culture artist. Although I was confused about the conditions of the interview, I faced a difficult reality that undermined the authority and the purpose of the tradition of the awards ceremony. However, for the completion of the APAN TOP10 selection, an important part of the awards ceremony, a difficult decision was made that could only be accepted.
Winners selected in the’APAN TOP10′ will receive their consent and permission with the cooperation of each agency.
It was possible to smoothly process the material of the video on the common sense broadcast, and the material of Young-woong Lim from the New Era side
All of the remaining nine agencies can prepare for the awards ceremony with active cooperation.
Done. Afterwards, after the awards ceremony was broadcast with the missing data of Lim Young-woong due to New Era’s unfaithful cooperation, New Era’s fans asked for clarification of protests on January 25, and New Era asked the production company to replay APAN video. There is a fact that we have made a request for re-editing and making the broadcast available because we will send you the data of Yeongwoong Lim.
However, there is a fact that the New Era side has forced the APAN organizer to post an apology in order to take over the responsibility of the New Era side in response to the criticism of Lim’s fans. Accordingly, the association has repeatedly made concessions and can conclude with mutual responsibility due to the lack of smooth communication between the organizer and the organizer. The organizers of APAN proposed a reasonable and smooth communication, but the problem that New Era cannot accept. There was also a fact that it was rejected by recognizing that the facts of New Era were unsavory, and this association was trying to reveal the truth or not in order to correctly convey the truth of the industry. We affirm that we will disclose all related materials in the absence of a sincere official apology and undermining the order of the industry by violent behavior.
The Korea Entertainment Management Association expresses the position of APAN as it is no longer able to neglect and observe Neweri’s actions of neglecting and distorting the correct facts that deviate from the authenticity of its operating purpose as a host company.
