T/N: Translating all Hangeng VS SME articles, as they might be a reference point to JSC's case in future.
Media says Henry going solo; SM says: "We did not accept any interview."
[Sohu Korean Entertainment News] After the media reported on Hangeng's termination of contract with his management company last Monday, every media's prime concern has been whether or not SJ-M's activities in China can continue.Previously, there were media reports on "Henry defending Hangeng" and "Henry going solo". Through an exclusive telephone interview with SM Entertainment, they stated that they did not accept any media interview.
The following is the transcript of SM Entertainment's statement:
With regards to the XKB (Guangzhou) report, "Henry defends Hangeng", that was released on 30 December 2009, our company, as a party involved, has not accepted any interviews ever since we arrived at the event location (29 December 2009). The organisers, Guangdong Television and Dongguan Broadcasting Corporation also did not schedule any interviews for us. Thus, these are ficticious and inaccurate news by the reporters.

T/N: The following is a translation of the news article that SM debunked.
Henry defends Hangeng
Yesterday, Henry, from Korea's super popular group SJ-M, appeared in Dongguan to attend the "激情动漫嘉年华" festival as a performing artist. Due to the recent contract controversy that SJ-M's leader, Hangeng, is having with SM Entertainment, it was inevitable that Henry was asked questions relating to the issue. When the interview shifted to how there was a member of SJ-M that called Hangeng "lower than an animal", Henry said, "People who curse others are the ones that are lower than animals!"
On the night of 30 December, Sohu China's International Festival will be held at Dongguan Cultural Centre, Guangdong Television and 6 other mainstream broadcast channels will be broadcasting this 'live'. SJ-M member Henry, will be forming a last minute duo with Chinese national Zhang Li Yin, to perform at the festival.
With regards to the leader Hangeng's contract conflict with the company, Henry, who is also Chinese, took an obvious stance, siding with Hangeng. He revealed to the reporters that in order to avoid the company and the media, Hangeng turned off his mobile phone and pretended to go missing. He said, "Hangeng needs time alone to think through things calmly, but he's doing well right now, so the fans who are worried for him, please be reassured." When the reporter mentioned that there was a SJ-M member who called Hangeng "lower than an animal" earlier on, Henry's expression changed and he couldn't help but gave an outburst of, "People who curse others are the ones that are lower than animals!" This made the reporters who were at the scene even more suspicious that there is already internal discord amongst the SJ-M members.
When asked whether SJ-M will attend Hunan TV's New Year's Eve Festival that is to be held on 31 December, Henry said helplessly, "To be honest, it all depends on the results of the talks between the company and Hangeng. It is useless to speak of the other guesses."

EXTRA NOTE: The previous article from the Chinese media that said there were 6 members in total filing for the case, has not been reported by the Korean media. For now, that remains a rumour.
