What the heck is SM doing? Are they retarded? DBSK is far more than just deserving of a break, they have worked so freaking hard to be one of the best and SM slaps them with this crap?
DBSK better win this..

I think as SINGERS, they need to get more sleep before performing. Sleep-deprivation is really bad for your voice

Ugh, SM disgusts me. Nothing against SM artists because they're just doing what SM tells them to do (which is basically almost everything due to their ridiculous contracts/how controlling they are).

I really hope they get some justice. It's about time something was done

That's because they have to go to parlors or something to HIDE it.
When someone is sleep deprived, their appearance somehow changes.
But if you look very carefully, their not as "excited" as they used to be when they started performing.

If there was a slap smiley, I would use it here.
The girls are working very hard, you can see dark circles around their eyes.
All Jessica wants to do is sleep, but they won't give her that.

Wow. Their compensation is horrible as well. 8,000 USD for over 500k in album sales. That's it? That's just pennies.

I saw this elsewhere and I don't really follow DBSK so it doesn't upset me (now if it was Super Junior....) I think the fall out so far in the foreign fan base has been kind of epic. SM is known for this kind of thing already so I'm not surprised finally someone has turned round and said no to their demands.

umm, as you probably know DBSK and SJ are in the same company. In fact, recently it was SJ's schedule was revealed and it lasts for 24 hours a day (of course not all members participating in everything). SJ's contract is probably the exact same.

also, i fixed the broken url.


I meant the whole 'potential break up drama.' I pretty much feel sorry for all the artists in SM right now. Those contracts are horrible. I think artists signed under JYP seem a lot happier. His promotion of Wondergirls in America seems to be going well

rumor has it that SM is filing a counter-lawsuit against the 3 (jaejoong, junsu, yoochun) of the 5 members that originally filed the lawsuit.

I'm not really surprised that SM is doing this since they have a lot of very popular groups. In order to rake in the money, they just want to promote, promote, promote even more. SM was at the point where they were in such a rush for SHINEE's comeback that they just did nothing but have cover songs for their upcoming album. Besides that, there is rumor that SM is joining the new girl group trend by debuting another female group. So far 2009 is considered the year of the female groups: 2NE1, 4Minute, T-ara, KARA, SNSD, Brown Eyed Girls, etc. Although I'm not a huge fan of any SM artists, I wish the best for them, especially DBSK.

Holy shit! when you compare their pay with how much they earn for the company, it is WAY worse than SWEAT SHOP wages.

Only a few hours of sleep a day, preposterous.

This people should be thrown in jail imo.

How can somebody sleep at night after writing that contract? The greed of some people...

On a somewhat related note:

http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/nation/2009/08/117_49491.html

This is unfortunately not an uncommon thing to happen in the Korean entertainment industry. A lot of these agencies/managers are very shady and are nothing more than glorified swindlers/gangsters.
