We are sure that many of our readers have already heard of and signed the Petition for the Recognition and Protection of JYJ’s Legal and Human Rights. But on the least chance that you have not, here again is the information. The petition will be closing in three short days, so sign while you still can!
During this crucial time, before JYJ's March 2011 lawsuit hearing and right after QTV's constant evasiveness and uncertainty about airing JYJ on their network, we--as fans of Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu and as fans of TVXQ--have to let the courts and the public know that what's been happening to JYJ is WRONG. That JYJ shouldn't be blocked by television networks, that they shouldn't have to suffer setbacks in their careers wrought upon them by a vengeful ex-management company and its long list of cronies just because JYJ dared to stand up for their rights.
There are some who may question the validity and usefulness of the Petition. Others are skeptical that a Petition done by international fans would make any impact in Korea. The Petition DOES matter and international fans' opinions matter more than they ever realized. According to Koh Jaeyul , a prominent Korean journalist: The judgment on unfair contracts between SM and JYJ will be made at the court. However, the judge will not make a verdict solely based on the code of law. The judge will look at the public’s opinions and consider the implications of his ruling. JYJ’s new accomplishments and the global fandom will make an influence on the verdict.
