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.[5]

In October 2015, CJ E&M and its US-based 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 (case number 5:2015mc80265), with the latter seeking to get 50 million dollars for damages (therefore making it the biggest copyright infringement case of 2015 in the US based on monetary damages sought). Responding to the suit, CJ E&M accused 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 after the court rejected CJ E&M's motion to dismiss the case.[6][7][8]
