The Rose

On February 28, 2020, the band announced they have requested the termination of their contract with their agency, citing unreasonable schedules and problems with payments. J&Star Company issued a statement refuting their claims as they had not violated the exclusive contract and had provided payment information over the contract period. The agency explained that they may take legal steps and considering compensation.

On August 3, 2020, the members created their own SNS accounts for their band, not affiliated with J&Star Company. They released the single "Black Rose" on August 23. The song was later taken down due to the ongoing dispute.

On August 31, 2020, J&Star Company stated that the band’s request for contract termination has been denied by the courts. They added that an arbitration is currently underway and they wish "to resolve the matter in an amicable way". On June 29, 2021, member Woosung confirmed that everything has been sorted out with J&Star Company and that they are not under contract anymore.
