Identity of insider in “Unanswered Questions” FIFTY FIFTY episode? “Designer working for The Givers for 5 months”
The identity of the insider who appeared in the “Unanswered Questions” FIFTY FIFTY episode was revealed
On November 15th, a live broadcast titled “Identity Of Unanswered Questions Insider! The Whole Story Behind FIFTY FIFTY Keena’s Return” was conducted on YouTuber Lee Jin-ho’s channel.
Earlier on August 19th, SBS’s “Unanswered Questions” covered the conflict between rookie girl group FIFTY FIFTY and their agency Attrakt.
On the broadcast, an individual introduced as an “insider” appeared and commented on Attrakt CEO Jeon Hong-joon’s attitude, “I don’t understand why he goes around saying he’s the girls’ father when he hasn’t even attended a monthly evaluation until their debut.”
Following this, Attrakt stated that A, the person interviewed by “Unanswered Questions”, was an unclear figure who may not have even worked for the company, and sued A for defamation on October 11th.
Lee Jin-ho claimed, “A wasn’t an Attrakt employee but worked for The Givers for 5 months. The Givers hired A after an interview, and A worked in The Givers’ office. A was a designer. The Givers received an investment of 10 billion won from Kyobo Book Centre, and A was the one who created the investment proposal PPT at that time.”
He further explained, “This person worked from October 2021 to March 2022, precisely for 5 months. FIFTY FIFTY prepared for their debut for 3 years. But the employee who worked for just 5 months claimed that CEO Jeon Hong-joon never attended a monthly evaluation.”
Lee Jin-ho emphasized, “Since this person originally worked for The Givers, they weren’t in a position to come to Attrakt and participate in monthly evaluations. In fact, no one saw this person during the members’ monthly evaluations.”
Regarding the part where Mr. A’s employment contract and business card were confirmed, he said, “Attrakt’s point of view is very exciting. Attract outsource to The Givers. During this process, The Givers selected a designer. However, A proposed the cost to Attract and temporarily became an Attract employee. His exact position was a PR team designer”.
Lee Jin-ho then stated that there is a possibility that the show “Unanswered Question” may have been a victim as well, considering that the employee in question worked for The Givers, so the show mistook him for also working for Attrakt.
Nevertheless, “Unanswered Question” still expressed regrets, saying that they should have acknowledged the mistake immediately after the broadcast, apologized, and corrected it, instead of doing a follow-up broadcast without any statement.
According to Lee Jin-ho, the things that Attrakt officers asked to deal with while handing over key data to “Unanswered Question” were not covered. The key data was reportedly the video chat details of The Givers and Fifty Fifty.
In response to this, one production team reportedly responded to Attrakt, saying, “It doesn’t seem to be of much help to the truth. It doesn’t seem to be that important data.“
Earlier on this day, according to Dispatch, Mr. A was confirmed to be a “representative actor”. The reenactment actor interviewed by the production team was male, but his gender was changed to female in the broadcast. At the time, the broadcast did not show A’s face, and instead covered it with mosaic.
