Controversies
In April 2015, CJ E&M was accused of mobilizing young employees to fill the seats of its annual general meeting (AGM) of shareholders in an attempt to silence shareholders.[4]
In October 2015, CJ E&M and its United States subsidiary CJ E&M America were sued by Seoul-based music agency DFSB Kollective for copyright infringement and violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in the Central District Court of California, with the latter seeking to get 50 million dollars for damages. CJ E&M answered back, accusing DFSB of being unhappy on the final decision on a similar lawsuit filed in Seoul in 2011. The first trial was set for March 1, 2016.[5]
