President Jeon: "We won't just watch if they become a company exploits young players."
As KeSPA confirmed, Incredible Miracle and LG's contract was until the October of 2012, and after that, IM hasn't been payed, and Coach Park has run the team with his own expense and the money from sub-sponsors. It was also confirmed that he got some debts.
By the request of the coach, "to correct the contract", KeSPA investigated on the case as a organization represents the Korean esports scene, and listened to the both sides.
LG and IM discussed about the contract extension around the extension on October, 2012. LG offered a new contract on the November, and virtually both agreed, so it looked like they agreed the extension. IM went on for activities for LG, including being interviewed for LG's blog. It was also confirmed that the contract was offered by LG, and the both side looked through it.
Even on the December, IM participated for LG's events. Through this, IM believed in LG, refusing other offers from sponsors. Also, until the April of 2013, They continuously shared activities, and kept discussing for the renewal, but it failed.
LG set the period of negotiation 2 months, and they notified that the renewal is difficult on the December, so they've done "nothing wrong", but during the period, LG continuously confirmed the contract, and the period that both of them recognized that the renewal was impossible was actually the April of 2013, four more months later.
The Association recognized all the facts above, and tried to arbitrate LG and IM, but LG tried to cover this up with a promise of events with a reward around $10, 000
