--♥ SMTOWN Cancelled ♥--

--♥ 872 People Request For Compensation ♥--

The number of people who applied for compensation, at the Korea Consumer Agency, for the cancellation of

SMTOWN in August have reached 872.
On 10 December, a representative from the

Korea Consumer Agency –

Court Committee of Consumer Disputes said,

“SM cancelled the contract

(T/N: Here, the term contract is used

because it is a business exchange

between the ticket buyers and the company)

and this caused the other parties

to request for compensation.

Adding the 240 people that filed for compensation

on 9 December to the 632 people that filed previously,

there is a total of 872 people.”
A representative said that a majority of the

applicants were youths, and proper proceedings

will be carried out after these 872 applicants

have been verfied. Due to the dispute

SM is having with 3 members of TVXQ,

the “SMTOWN LIVE ‘09″ concert

that was to be held in August was cancelled.
The Committee estimates that the total sales

for that concert amounted to roughly $9,090,000,000 (Won),

and the Family Ticket which allowed

4 people to enter together amounted to $143,000 (Won).

The Committee will take into consideration

that most of the applicants are youths,

so the latest the verdict will come out is

by next year, and a conclusive verdict will be given then.
