Garam and Soojin had to vanish off the face of the earth but Lucas can back to stage

Quote from keyboardwarrior7

I think this has to do more with the fact he's with SM than anything else.

SM doesn't drop their stars like other companies. Had Garam and Soojin been at SM, I guarantee they'd still be promoting.

We see how SM shielded Taeyong and Irene, and they erased those nasty rumors about Karina before they gained any kind of traction. Lucas is just lucky he joined the right company.

And yet somehow, many believe that SM is the worst company of them all.

Except for Jessica. Sm doesn’t let their idols go.

Jessica chose to go. SM tried to keep her in the company as a soloist but she sued because she was wrongfully kicked out, they settled and she moved on. SM lost over $60 million because of Jessica. I'm sure she'd have stayed if she wanted to.

The clout of SM = Sneaky Mofos

You mean idols are protected for better or worse regardless of what they do? Every idol out there deserves to be protected.

Soojin shot herself in the foot after boldly claiming she would leave the group if any of the allegations made were true. It was so unnecessary for her to say that. She could've just apologized even if she did no wrong and take a 6-month hiatus. The truth would be revealed anyways and everyone would've felt sorry for her in the end.

The same goes for Garam but I feel HYBE is partly to blame for her situation. She was never given a chance to confess to the public personally until she left. And honestly, I'm still clueless as to whether she's innocent or not.

As for Lucas, at least he admitted that he was in the wrong and apologized. He took a long hiatus to self reflect. I don't understand what kpop fans want more from him. To leave his career because he turned out to be a player? I can bet half of the male celebrities were playboys at some point in their lives.

Also, how are we sure how many of the allegations are true? He just apologized. He didn't point out which one of those was true and there were too many of them. For all we know, some of them might be false but Lucas didn't address them.

Irene came back and so did Lucas why are you comparing with some other random celebs. SM only kicks out people if the group wants you gone like Jessica for example or that dude from Suju. Otherwise if you want, you stay at SM.

SM just isnt built like other kpop companies sawry

Sm is trash...

Quote from bangmenah

There is NOTHING that can get SM to end a contract, ONLY a judge

also owning a fashion brand I suppose

Cube should've kept Soojin on the dungeon for 2 years

People would forget by then

But Cube is awful
