On August 3, according to Korean media reports, Kim Min-jeong, a 39-year-old South Korean actress who is filming tvN's new drama "Demon Judge", suffered injustice, and today through the media, she expressed her dilemma, "So far I have not received a new drama salary, the owner of the performing arts company has lost contact, and now only I can protect my rights and interests." ”
Kim Min-jeong played the chairman of the "Social Responsibility Foundation" who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals in "Devil Judge", and his acting skills were well received. Today, she had a contract dispute with the brokerage company "WIP", which originally expired in March this year and ended the partnership, but "WIP" claimed that "due to the filming of "Devil Judge", the contract was automatically extended", so the two sides completely froze.
Kim Min-jeong, who is a child actress, has been in the industry for 31 years, and in March 2019, she signed a 2-year contract with THE WIP, and the contract expired in March this year, and the two sides also chose not to renew the contract. But WIP said: "Although the written contract expired in March, the company helped manage the brokerage business before the "Devil Judge" was released in July, and also said that the contract would be automatically extended." If it is to be terminated, it must be negotiated. ”
Kim Min-jeong cried to the South Korean media: "Before negotiating a new contract with the boss of the WIP in February this year, neither of them agreed to automatically extend the old contract, and in order to prevent the new contract from getting paid, I asked for the information that the boss of the brokerage company is responsible." But after the unpaid wage incident, the company owner disappeared and has not been able to contact him so far.
The head of the Korean Artists Protection Association also spoke out today, expressing concern about Kim Min-jeong's unpaid wages and will entrust a well-known lawyer to assist Kim Min-jeong in handling the matter. At the same time, the Korean Artist Protection Association also calls on South Korea to manage performing arts companies, please treat entertainers kindly, and hope that no artists will be victimized in the future.
