K-Pop Idols Who Sued SM Entertainment

K-Pop Idols Who Sued SM Entertainment
Three members of the K-pop group EXO recently announced their intent to sue their management company, SM Entertainment. Baekhyun, Xiumin, and Chen, also known by their subunit name EXO-CBX, released a statement alongside their legal representatives stating their intent to end their exclusive contract with SM over payment transparency issues and unreasonable contract demands.
SM Entertainment is considered one of the Big 4 K-pop entertainment companies in the industry, having produced groups such as Girls’ Generation, TVXQ!, SHINee, aespa, Red Velvet and EXO themselves.
Despite being a high-profile and successful company, SM Entertainment has consistently faced issues with artist mistreatment and is at the centre of many other notable lawsuits.
Some of these lawsuits are by Luhan, Tao, and Kris (ex-Chinese members of EXO), JYJ (Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun, and Kim Junsu), Han Geng (Super Junior), No Min Woo (TRAX), Jessica Jung (Girls Generation), and recently EXO-CBX (Baekhyun, Xiumin, and Chen)

Imao there should be a case study about what happens at SM and YG. Suing a company is like extreme and only a few take this measure. God knows what the rest of the artists are facing and never spoke about it

[@KVerse_KV]

The worst part of JYJ vs. SM was that SM orchestrated a complete media blackout against JYJ. Jaejoong literally had to wait 15 years to appear again on TV

I didn't listen to boa for a decade because she inserted herself into DBSK situation

[@0chobo]

@@A7iM95 I still don't listen to her, it honestly makes me uncomfortable. JJ regarded her as a best friend but I guess she didn't feel the same

This company has always been the hub of all evil from the beginning. Yet people choose to turn a blind eye and instead attack their competitors instead as SM exactly plans.

[@noona-k]

💯

[@Aizannn]

Not to mention this is the company who has their idols committed suicide! Shinee member committed suicide and they capitalised on it instead!!

[@lostinthelightslostinthelights]

and then there are some people who still stan the comment and will jump on you as soon as you bring up shady things they do. Like stanning artists is another thing but why would someone with even a few brain cells would support such a toxic company

[@amnafaiq7909]

BIG3 is made up of pure business greed

[@lostinthelightslostinthelights]

Yesssss talk about it. I think it is the only company where even the members of cashcow groups don't hesitate to sue their management firm. Like what insane things must be going on there which drives the artists to take this drastic measure

[@nawalsiddique]

Time to use my law degree and apply to SM for a job

[@KatherineLaManna]

These artists are forced into legitimate slave contracts. 13-17 years?!?!

[@inamulhaq004]

Every hit group of SM ends up having the same fate

[@周覓ジ]

1:34 Goo Hara? She was never under SM?

[@sarellekalp]

Not sure, but I think she's a former trainee at the company
