“A great time for my management company and the artists of Open Door,” he said in a tweet last December 4, where he mentioned a collaboration with Filipino artist Travis Atreo and f(x) member Amber Liu. “And now a possible music project for Minzy (@mingkki21)! She’s such the sweetest person! Amazing [management] [with] the new team last night.”
Filipino Blackjacks shared their excitement all over social media and couldn’t wait to hear Minzy’s comeback, especially after hearing about the difficulties the Kpop sensation is experiencing with her current agency.
If it’s true, I would love to see Minzy rock ASAP stage too.. It’s nice to see that Philippines is helping our Maknae to rebuild her career. Please get Minzy from her shitty company please! @ABSCBN_Showbiz

The singer filed an injunction to suspend her current contract with her management, The Music Works Entertainment, last September 25. However, her request to terminate her exclusive contract has been denied by the court.
Minzy spoke about her dispute with her agency in an Instagram post on December 4. She claimed that when she signed her contract, her agency promised at least four albums a year and provide support as much as possible. However, she has only released one album under her label in the past four years and has not received compensation from its earnings.
“More than money, it is the most important to me to be able to continue promoting as an artist. As a result, I hoped to resolve [the situation] quickly by settling with the agency or through an injunction, but it did not go smoothly, so now I can only take legal action in order for the truth to be revealed,” she continued in her post, translated by Korean entertainment news website, Soompi.
The Kpop star hopes to continue her promotions as a singer and promises her fans to overcome her current disagreement with her agency.
