I am slightly annoyed I can't blame this on Soo Man Lee selfmate
wait actually I can!!
LOOK AT WAHT YOU'VE DONE WITH YOUR KWANGYA POOP AND THAT NUGU NAEVIS DEBUT NOBOBY CARED ABOUT!
AND FOR THE RECORD IT'S THE YEAR OF THE SNAKE NOW, YOUR SELFMADE ENTITLEMENT HAS BEEN EXPIRED!
I actually think the OP's information is incorrect considering I went and googled it and it seemed SME made a lot of money in Q4 of 2024

Honestly, I agree.
I know LSM allegedly had something to do with slave contracts but, kicking him out has cost SM so much, especially, talent! Soon, they'll lose everything that set them apart from other labels and idols in the industry.
People can hate LSM all they want but he kept SM united and on top for decades in all kinds of good and bad ways.
There's something good and bad about everything.
but does the good > the bad????
I feel so bad for him at this point lol!
you can donate to the LSM fund at
For the love of God - do not click or type that link in - I have no idea where it leads

how is it a wrong information when SM Entertaiment shared those details themselves and released their financials.
It's true but the question is how is it true and why they have a decline like that.

People complain about LSM more than they appreciate what he has done not just for SM but for the Kpop industry in general. All they see is slave contracts blah blah blah lol!

Okay, I looked at their income statement quarterly for 2024.
SM’s subsidiaries are always at net loss. The parent company itself always has positive net income.
I will look up to income statement closer tomorrow, but it seems SM is trying to minimise net loss of its subsidiaries. But to cover up those losses Parent company(SM Ent.) needs higher net income, but at quarter 4 they had way less net income compared to net loss of its subsidiaries.
They even got a lot of tax benefit(around 8bn won) for 4th quarter of 2024.
So to sum it up very briefly, parent company(that works with idols, and it’s profits come from physical sales, Concerts, Advertising and etc) generates a lot of profit, but SM’s subsidiaries are leaking too much money that it generates loss. But that loss reduced a little compared to last year.

people complain too much...

subsidiary hurts them but
there's also a problem when SM keeps on debuting new groups each year
Riize and Wish should be combined as 1 group, and now BND stealing riize kfans...
debuting groups like DearAlice and Mytro that gained no significant traction...
and then they have a plan to debut JP gg this year
when they already got H2H
and next year SMNBG that surely will cannibalize riize & wish future even more
Kpop fans keeps shrinking but companies keeps debuting new groups
