This SBS video will help you understand who SIAHN To give some additional context about the video: It covers a lesser-known tampering case from 2017 involving an artist named Sonnet, who was under a small agency called Fortune Entertainment. Interestingly, the way this case unfolded is almost identical to the recent FIFI1.0 incident. Fortune wasn't a major player in the industry, but they had invested heavily in Sonnet, who was virtually unknown at the time. They even supported her studying abroad at Berklee College of Music during her contract period. The CEO, a woman with strong industry connections, went out of her way to get her good songs and promotion opportunities. By all accounts, the relationship between the agency and the artist seemed healthy. That changed after Sonnet briefly worked with an external producer named SIAHN. Not long after that collaboration, Sonnet filed for an injunction against her agency, claiming mismanagement. However, the court found no fault on the agency’s part, and the case ended in Fortune's favor. Still, Sonnet never returned to the company. Instead, she started promoting herself independently and received all her earnings directly into her own account. Fortune, already financially limited and with Sonnet being their only artist, had no way to fight back. Though they technically "won" the lawsuit, all they received was a few tens of thousands of dollars in penalty fees—then had to let her go. Afterward, the female CEO reportedly suffered from a deep sense of betrayal, underwent years of psychiatric treatment, and also developed a heart condition. Back then, the CEO accused SIAHN of poaching the artist, but the industry largely dismissed it as just another artist-agency dispute—until a nearly identical incident occurred again in 2023. What’s only recently come to light is that, although SIAHN denied any tampering at the time, Sonnet’s manager during her “independent” activities turned out to be from SIAHN’s company. And while Sonnet claimed in interviews that she had signed with a different company entirely, that company was later revealed to be owned by SIAHN himself. The sign for "24TH STREET", which appears in the video, was later changed to The Givers. From 2018 onwards, Sonnet actively worked as a promotional model for VEZT Korea, a company run by SIAHN as CEO. The company attracted massive investments with the slogan, “Own a share of a Maroon 5 song,” before taking down its website and disappearing as a Ponzi scheme. As for the man in the video who lost everything, his reputation in the theater community was positive, and he owned his own large theater and was known for supporting struggling actors and low-budget productions. According to interviews with people in the industry, he’s not considered a bad person. Currently, Ablume works in Ahn Sung Il's office and uploads YouTube videos from there. Also, the woman they say threw away our food works with them in that building. https://www.reddit.com/r/FiftyFifty_Truths/comments/1nluv2d/this_sbs_video_will_help_you_understand_who_siahn/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button submitted by /u/GooseSignificant8293 [link] [comments]
