A representative of Soul Shop stated, "October 13 of last year, at a meetingwith Kim Tae Woo held on the fourth floor of the office in regards to a new album, Gilgun requested that he take out a loan to pay her $3 million KRW (~ $3,000 USD) every month. 


When Kim Tae Woo replied that it was impossible, Gilgun started to curse, scream, throw her cellphone at the recording equipments, and cause a commotion. Everything was captured on CCTV. If needed, we can release it [to the public].




In an earlier statement, representatives of Soul Shop claimed that Gilgun did not commit fully to her lessons and even threatened Kim Tae Woo, saying that she would commit suicide inside the company office in attempts to shut down the agency. 


In response to Soul Shop's recent statement, Gilgun requested to the representatives of Soul Shop that they hold a dual press conference at the same date, place, and time. She stated, "Rather than releasing press releases that are creating confusion, I thought it would be best to hold a [dual] press conference to answer the questions of the journalists and then have it judged by society.

Lastly, Gilgun stated that if Soul Shop were to agree, she would prepare everything and all that the agency would have to do is make an appearance at the press conference. 

Meanwhile, singer Gilgun claimed that Soul Shop Entertainment demanded a large cancelation fee for her contract when it was terminated on a mutual basis. She also asserted that she was treated unfairly by Kim Tae Woo and his wife, who is the current director of the company.
