JAKARTA - One of SM Entertainment's producers raised his voice about the chaos between the two CEOs and COO and Lee Soo Man. Producer Yoo Young Jin sent an email to the South Korean media to explain his position.
Yoo Young Jin admitted that he did not accept all SM 3.0's plans without involving Lee Soo Man. He said the system created was not to produce content but to create various systems.
"Regarding the presentation from the management regarding SM 3.0 on February 3, it was difficult for me to agree with the part that removed Lee Soo Man from production," said Yoo Young Jin today, Friday, February 10, as reported by Newsen.
I would like to express my dissatisfaction with the fact that a producer's most important role is not in creating content. They use the term multi-produce in the presentation but actually its content is about a multi-creation system," he continued.
Yoo Young Jin claimed after hearing the presentation, he asked if Lee Soo Man knew and confirmed this. However, SM confirmed there was no discussion about it.
"Even though Lee Soo Man's contract and the company ended last year, he never mentioned retiring in making music," said Yoo Young Jin.
"They revealed SM 3.0's plans on one hand without discussing with Lee Soo Man, and it was shocking how they said goodbye to Lee Soo Man," he explained.
Producers from a number of SM groups call Lee Soo Man the only producer to know the plans and developments of music.
"He has spoken that the world will come with robots and celebrities and he has long told us about avatars, metaverses, and the world of NFTs," he added.
"SM Entertainment is not SM Entertainment without Lee Soo Man's production," continued Yoo Young Jin.
Yoo Young Jin insists he will join Lee Soo Man. He has also informed Chris Lee, CEO of SM Entertainment.
I, Yoo Young Jin, support Lee Soo Man's belief. I have also conveyed my stance to CEO Chris Lee that I will not be with the company if the current situation continues," concluded Yoo Young Jin.
Yoo Young Jin is a producer who has joined SM Entertainment since 1995. He produced and wrote songs for a number of artists such as HOT, SES, BoA, Shinhwa, TVXQ, CSJH The Grace, Super Junior, Girls' Generation, Shinee, f(x), EXO, Red Velvet, NCT and aespa.
This year he made a Stamp on It for the GOT the Beat group. He produced this song after the success of their debut, Step Back.
