L.Joe decides to leave TEEN TOP, files for nullification of contract

It looks like fans\' worries have sadly come true. L.Joe filed for a nullification of contract from

T.O.P Media. Originally, his contract would last until January 2018. His biggest issue with his label is that they are not letting him have solo promotions.

The friction started last year in October of 2016, where he met with T.O.P Media about renewing his contract. He had decided to leave TEEN TOP and stand by himself, and the label apparently put limits on his solo promotions.

The label did not interact diligently with the producers. Even though he was repeatedly contacted to appear after being offered a salary that fit his role, acting experience, and recognition, the label did not make any negotiations on his appearance. For a drama \'A\' who contacted L.Joe first because they wanted to cast him, the label asked for a salary 7 times his previous, and the offer fell through.

I am not surprised. Companies are so damn fickle with their idols and have favorites. They sabotage their own idols and expect complete loyalty and submission. Screw that! As sad as it is L.Joe did what was best for him since obviously Top Media had none for him. So many years of hard work and no recognition. I wish the very best of success and luck to L.Joe and Teen Top. Angels I wish you all lot\'s of love, unity and understanding. I can only imagine what you are feeling right now. But I do know what it\'s like to be scared, angry, sad and worried for my bias group. Hang in there better times are coming. It sucks. Teen Top Fighting! Angels Fighting! 💖 👼🏻

I\'m sooo done, i need to lay down for the rest of the day after this news :\'(

i don\'t understand why the company didn\'t let him do the drama, it would\'ve increase the recognition of L.Joe and Teen Top even if it\'s a little

i\'m not saying niel didn\'t deserve his solo promotions, but they could\'ve at least done the same for l.joe? they had blatant favouritism and it\'s just so sad to see how it\'s turned out.

I\'m here because of Teen Top. I love kpop because of them. That band with six cute and talented guy called Teen Top... Not five member. L.Joe is my first bias ang he is my ultimate bias, they my ultimate group. I will support them, no matter what. But now I feel nothing. It\'s terrible. Top Media is terrible, everything because of Top Media. I really hate that company now. I will support the Teen Top and L.Joe too. But I don\'t know what will with me. I\'m totally borken, what the hell. I cryed hours, and.. And ah. I can\'t belive this. It\'s not the reality, it\'s just my nightmare from last night. I\'m really sad. #OT6FOREVER

Yea if teen top ever perform their ood songs. It wont be the same without L joe rap ;/

Why they didnt let him have solo promotions when Niel releases solo albums, lol?
