해외공연계약을 위한 표준계약서 제정에 관한 연구

Abstract

A Korean artist who signed a performance contract overseas has experienced difficulties in entering Korea since his visa was not issued properly due to insufficient preparation of documents from overseas promoters and tax returns were omitted. Furthermore, the one-sided cancellation of the contract caused by diplomatic problems, such as the one-day cancellation of the performance due to the fact that the clothes worn by one of the nation's famous groups in the past caused anti-Japanese sentiment. The domestic music industry continues to grow, and overseas, through K-POP, it has become a big part of the music market. In order for a local artist to perform abroad, his or her agency or artist must prepare for an overseas performance by signing a direct contract with an overseas promoter. In particular, Korean artists and their agencies are having difficulties as there are no practical solutions to the problems that may arise when performing overseas, including "Standard Agreement for Broadcasting and Performing Arts" and "Public Artists' Standard Contracts for Performing Arts" in Korea. In order to solve these difficulties, it has become very important that the contents of the performance contract signed prior to the overseas performance is clearly specified. In other words, it was necessary to prepare a standard contract in order to protect the agency, artist, or overseas promoters that were the parties to the contract. Based on the case of cancellation of overseas performances caused by cultural and geographical characteristics, this paper will review the rights and obligations of the artists, agencies and overseas promoters of each party to be entered into the establishment of the standard contract, and then review the legal responsibilities sequentially in the event of a dispute.
