Lee Seo Jun is the CEO of the RJ Entertainment agency. He used to work as Ran Joo’s manager. When the artist’s contract with her previous agency was about to expire, Seo Jun said he was interested in starting an agency. He capitalized on Ran Joo’s popularity and made her his first artist. With the collaboration between the former manager and the then-popular Ran Joo, RJ Entertainment became a major agency.
Now Seo Jun is in conflict with Ran Joo. He often gives trivial work to Ran Joo. He also seemed to disrespect the artist. To top it off, he prevented Ran Joo from selling her album by withdrawing the album from circulation. Not only that, he also tried to prevent Ran Joo’s old agency from selling the album.
This was allegedly due to Seo Jun and Ran Joo’s agreement before the agency was established. Seo Jun promised to give half of RJ Entertainment’s shares if Ran Joo managed to sell 20 million albums.
In addition to the share issue, the two people also seem to have had a romance in the past. However, it is still not shown when and what caused the relationship to end.
2. Eun Mo Rae

Eun Mo Rae (Bae Gang Hee) used to be Ran Joo’s protégé. If in the past Ran Joo was called a diva, now that position is held by Mo Rae. Mo Rae is in her prime and has a strong fan base.
The conflict between Mo Rae and Ran Joo stems from a fan contest in the past. Mo Rae found out that she was actually the second place winner. She was also touted as a replacement for the first place winner who couldn’t attend. Ran Joo seemed to favor the first champion and often regretted not being able to meet the first champion. Seeing Ran Joo’s attitude, Mo Rae felt that her talent was not appreciated and at any time her career could be destroyed.
She was even more disturbed after Ran Joo met the first place winner, Seo Mok Ha (Park Eun Bin). She was afraid that people would find out about her and Mok Ha’s past and start comparing the two of them. Even so, it seems that the conflict between Mo Rae and Ran Joo is over after the two meet again at an event.
3. Hwang Byung Gak
