From what I understand, Pledis filed a damage suit against cosmetics company 'Point' for going against contract terms. She had been contracted for a year and an automatic additional year once the first contract expires and should everything go all right, but after the first year, the company decided not to contract with her again.

Pledis saw this as a breach of contract and filed a damage suit for $400,000 USD. At the first hearing, the court ordered for the company to pay her $250,000 USD, but at the second (most recent) hearing, the judge took the side of the company by reasoning that they had already told UEE that they would not be signing her on for another year before her first contract expired so they were within the terms of the contract.

1. [+229, -33] Seems like her bubble is slowly starting to burst

2. [+175, -13] I can see why they would file a lawsuit over the matter but it seems like it was a matter they could've solved on good terms. I'm pretty sure they know what kind of influence this will have with other advertisers once they see that she's going against a company like this... Seeing as how they didn't take that into account, Pledis seems to think they've used up all they can out of UEE and have no use for her anymore.

3. [+95, -7] Seems like money in the hundreds of thousands is no big deal to celebrities lately ㅋ

4. [+29, -7] She has to have a sponsor. When Yoo Soyoung said she wanted to go into acting, they completely ignored her and didn't even dress her or give her make up properly on her last stage with the group. UEE, on the other hand, got into acting right away. Unfair b*tch.

5. [+24, -8] Seems like her time is coming to an end as well~ How could she think of pissing off an advertising company?

6. [+8, -0] Should've just taken the money and left, this is what greed does to you...

7. [+8, -0] Doesn't seem like advertisers will want to work with her anymore ㅎㅎㅎ
