| Common Topics S.E.S - Break Up December 25, 2002 SM Entertainment announced that former SES member Shoo signed a contract extension with them and confirmed the disbandment of the popular female group. Sea - Richest Contract For A Female Gasoo Sea reached terms with MP Entertainment on December 23 for 2,000,000,000 won which roughly translates to 1.7 million in US dollars. Bada’s new contract calls for 3 regular albums and 1 best album. Bada’s contract dwarfs the next two richest contracts for female singers: Baek Ji Young’s $800,000 contract and Lee Sora’s $600,000 contract. The richest contract for a solo singer male or female is Jo Sung Mo’s 3 million dollar contract which was signed last year. Eugene - Persuading Solo Eugene the third member of the group had broken all ties with SM Entertainment on December 19 to pursue a solo singing and acting career. Shoo - SM Renewal Contract As a condition for the contract renewal SM promised Shoo a chance to do activities overseas. SM announced that Shoo would head their heavily invested and long planned “International Project” an ambitious venture to conquer the international world. “This International Project is our ‘grand’ project which will utilize our marketing plans not only into Japan and China but all of Asia and into America as well,” said SM Entertainment. Shoo had already released a single album with one of Japan’s most popular male groups in V6 and had already come out on a Korea-Japan collaborated play. She is expected to continue to go in that direction while still appearing in SM collaboration albums. |
