"We have filed a breach of contract lawsuit against management office," the company said, adding, "I Si An clearly violated the exclusive contract and additional contractual terms agreed upon with management office."

In April, discussions for her appearance in "Escape from the Island 4" began in earnest, and a follow-up agreement was drawn up to extend the exclusive contract with I Si An." The contract extension is scheduled to expire on October 25, 2024.
"The contract was extended by an additional year and six months," he said. He added, "We had a thorough discussion with I Si An and her parents. I Si An is also a member of the group 'Escape from the Island'.
After that, Leaders and I Si An signed a contract to appear on "Escape from the Island 4" in May 2024, and filming began in June of the same year.
However, right after filming for the show, in August of last year, I Si An suddenly announced to Leaders her intention to end her exclusive contract and, through her legal representative, to continue her activities until October 21 of the same year.
In response, Leaders said, "This is a violation of the exclusive contract and all subsequent extended agreements," and "I Si An's objections regarding the exclusive contract are not valid."
Jang countered, "There is clearly no basis for this." He also said, "Since the establishment of Leaders, all contracts related to filming have been signed under the name of Kim Geun-soo, the CEO of Leaders, and I Si An was not involved in the process.
"We have not only reached a superficial agreement, but also a substantive agreement," he emphasized. I Si An's side is said to be adamant in their position that they want the current contract to be terminated.
Leaders said, "I Si An has abandoned the company's contributions and trust, so we will take strong action against her for violating the contract."
"Even though I Si An was clearly aware of the contents of the existing contract, they notified us of the termination of the contract for unreasonable reasons," they continued, "After filming, they ignored the contract and unilaterally asked us to stop activities.
"The announcement is an act of deceiving the company and the program production staff," he said. I Si An appeared on Mnet's survival programs "Produce 48" and "Idol School."
Recently, she has been appearing in the Netflix romance reality show "Escape from the Island 4."
