Pledis Entertainment was founded upon Son Dambi and After School. Son Dambi has managed to leave Pledis Entertainment, but After School unfortunately have not as a collective group. 

After School have had no group activities at all since mid-2015, and no Korean comeback since mid-2013. While Pledis's poor financial situation was one of the reasons they were unable to come back in the past few years, it is clear that via SEVENTEEN Pledis has gained a lot of money to support their artists. Pledis has gained enough funds to not only buy a new building, but allow NU'EST to have 2 comebacks in 2016, allow for a new girl group, Pledis Girlz, to debut as well as Han Donggeun to have a successful comeback in 2016.

However, Lizzy and Raina have both spoken about Pledis not having any plans whatsoever for both After School AND Orange Caramel as well as Lizzy being given no work as her contract expiration is coming closer (to which Pledis released a negative article about Lizzy in return). This is heartbreaking as an AS fan because the girls of After School have expressed their wishes for a comeback various times, and despite their individual activities want to pursue their singing careers.

Playgirlz and boyz should not blame other Pledis artists for After School's lack of activities, however, we cannot sit around doing nothing while one of Pledis's founding artists, After School, are set to rot until their contracts expire.

To let Pledis know that we do not plan on supporting Pledis until they give After School the proper ending, if not comeback, they deserve: boycott everything Pledis.

From MV views, to concerts, to albums of Pledis artists, avoid them at all costs and do not give Pledis a single penny. Of course, if you are a fan of other Pledis artists, you are free to spend your money how you wish. But if you are a Playgirlz/boyz, and are upset with the way OC and AS have been treated, do something about it.

This petition not have a huge impact, or any at all, but it is definitely worth a try. I don't want After School's efforts and huge potential to go to waste. And I don't want to be part of a fandom that doesn't care about the way our idols are being treated-many times against their wishes. There is strength in numbers, don't let this last chance slip away.
