“We decided the trust is broken and cannot be saved so we are kicking the two out of the company,” the company said in a statement.

The agency said that trust between artists and the company is of the utmost importance, and after numerous painstaking discussions, it had concluded that trust with HyunA and E’dawn “cannot be restored.”
