Cube Entertainment has released an official statement regarding (G)I-DLE’s Jeon Soyeon’s contract expiration and her recent performance.

During (G)I-DLE’s “iDOL” concert in Seoul this past weekend, Jeon Soyeon changed the lyrics to her solo song “Is this bad b****** number?” to include a mention of her contract ending this November.

Following the performance, numerous Korean news outlets reported that a spokesperson for Cube Entertainment had directly clarified that “Jeon Soyeon’s lyrics were just part of the performance” and that the (G)I-DLE members’ contract renewals were scheduled for next year.

However, on August 6, Jeon Soyeon personally addressed the issue on Instagram Stories, emphasizing that she did not “write down any lies or hide anything from the company” while preparing her performance.

Later that evening, Cube Entertainment responded by releasing a statement announcing that their previously reported position on the matter was merely “the opinion of one individual” and not an official statement by the agency.

The company went on to confirm that Jeon Soyeon’s contract was due to expire in November and that they had been aware of her altered lyrics ahead of time, but added that they were in the process of “smoothly discussing” the possibility of a contract renewal.

Cube Entertainment’s full statement is as follows:

Hello.
This is Cube Entertainment.
Some of the reports regarding Soyeon’s performance of her solo song “Is this bad b****** number?” are not true, and we have never given an official statement on the subject.
Therefore, because the opinion of one individual has been spreading as if it’s our agency’s official statement, we apologize for giving cause for concern to the many people who give Soyeon and (G)I-DLE their love and interest, and we are making an official statement regarding our position.
We were aware of the lyrics of [Soyeon’s] “Is this bad b****** number?” performance ahead of time.
Additionally, it’s true that the time frame mentioned is the time when [Soyeon’s] contract will expire, and we are currently in the process of smoothly discussing a [potential] contract renewal.
We are sincerely thankful to the fans who always give (G)I-DLE so much interest and support.
