What exactly is going on with this lawsuit against Yuehua Entertainment?

I read this article about a lawsuit against Yuehua entertainment and while I understand the gist of it I’m not the most knowledgeable about law so I feel like there is a lot I missed.

To summarize it sounds like ZB1 had a scheduled event in 2025 “All Loud KT Pop 2025” and it was conveyed to the organizer of the event that all of the members would attend. It seems like Yuehua decided unilaterally to pull Zhang Hao and Ricky from the lineup at the last minute and put out a false statement stating it was for health reasons when in actuality they were instructed not to attend.

After that is where I’m getting confused. It seems like the point of the lawsuit is that the organizing company is suing Yuehua for breach of contract but Yuehua is trying to avoid the lawsuit by saying they didn’t get paid for the event since the members didn’t attend and they suffered losses such as having to hand out refunds, fan complaints and “commercial credit damage” (but wasn’t Wakeone the company that took the hit? Fans were complaining about them so I don’t think Yuehua actually suffered any consequences?). Also I saw something mentioned that the reason the members were pulled was due to geopolitical reasons since this event was in Taiwan.

Is anyone able to explain the situation a little better?
