Minnie and Yuqi from (G)I-DLE addressed their upcoming contract renewal with Cube Entertainment. The question remains: will they choose to renew or depart?
Interview With (G)I-DLE’s Minnie and Yuqi About Contract Renewal with Cube Entertainment
On April 26, the fourth-generation idols made an appearance on the popular YouTube entertainment show, “DNE, commenting ‘Hey, come here’.”
Super Junior’s Donghae and Eunhyuk served as hosts as the four celebrities discussed a range of topics, including the female idols’ plans for the upcoming contract renewal process with their agency.
During the show, Eunhyuk initiated a discussion about renewing our contract by asking:
“How long do you have until the contract expires?”
Upon hearing Yuqi’s response that they only had a year, the two senior idols offered the advice of discussing the terms of the contracts beforehand.
She responded with this.
“Sure, I even lay my back like this when I go into the office.”
Minnie’s response that she would like a “percentage”(increase) from the company drew laughter, to which Eunhyuk agreed. He pointed out that they had been loyal employees for 7 years and suggested that they should first consult with the label before proceeding with negotiations.

In that moment, Yuqi alleviated this worry and portrayed Cube Entertainment in a favorable manner, stating:
“We are on good terms with the agency. Cube treats us well. They treat us really well. We messed with them one time. We express how happy we are now that we’ve only got 1 year to go. On the shows. To make them nervous. Turns out the stock prices drop! So our boss got upset one time.”
Once again, Yuqi emphasized:
“Cube treat us well. They treat (G)I-DLE well. Things that we would never expect from other agencies.”
(G)I-DLE Members Complain About Cube’s Building
During the same show, the “Queencard”singers also voiced their grievances about Cube Entertainment’s building, specifically the inadequate lighting.
Yuqi stated:
“It’s dim and dull. I hope they will renovate the interior soon. Back in the day, we used to watch a lot of dance practice videos. The sky wall (background). I used to like that! I want it to be bright. But our dance room background is in grey or black. It has the legit office vibes.”
Despite clarifying that they each received their own offices, Minni still complained.
“But mine is so tiny. I don’t like the color of the building’s exterior. We could start from there. I want it to be bright. Since we are Cube, we can go blue. I also want more lights in the dance practice room. When we film the dance video, we get shadows on our faces. I want our faces to glow. I want my office to be remodeled, or move me to a bigger office! We contributed a lot!”
