Regulation Limits Entertainer Contracts to 7 Years
Published on | Source
Korean entertainers who are feeling the "seven-year itch" with their current employers will now be able to sign contracts with new agencies without having to deal with unpleasant feuds.
The Fair Trade Commission says its new contract guidelines limit the amount of time anyone in the entertainment industry can be held to a contract to a maximum of seven years. This also means entertainers will not have to renew their contracts with the same agencies after a seven-year employment period.
Critics of the regulation argue that it bears too much resemblance to a California Labor Code known as "The Seven Year Statute".
