It is almost like we shouldn't always rush to blame companies and side with idols. I know the "evil mega corporation" vs "good people" has been a really popular theme in movies and pop culture, shaping up people's perception. But in the end these companies are also operated by people and not some evil robots, something many people seem to forget..
So how come yall are still gonna tell me SM is evil when so many idol renew with the company, and even those who choose to leave after honouring their contracts and on good terms also seem to have good relationship with the company and have only good things to say about Lee Soo Man? Look at SNSD, half of them are under different companies for variety of reasons, yet they still continue having good relationship with the company. It is almost like decent people can sort misunderstandings between each other like adults and only the problematic ones hire the lawyers....
