Only reason I can think of for groups that stay with them: they don't want to leave their staff team behind. They've worked with them for YEARS and developed good bonds, routines, connections with their stylists, hair/makeup team, manager, body guards, etc. It's not as easy as just leaving all that behind, and I doubt another company that wants to sign a group or single individual wants to go through the trouble of hiring an entire staff team. So they can feel stuck there. It's sad.

This is what happens when you get money hungry. It will never end well and you will be exposed for treating people like shit. If companies like SM prioritized artistry, promotion, and keeping their idols healthy in fair contracts, they could be thriving right now with idols happily renewing their contracts and making them more money. But instead they go the greedy route and end up with all their idols trying to run away for their own well being š¤¦ truly pathetic.

One thing I've noticed is that these companies don't want their artists to be too successful. It's the ones who have success who start getting ideas that they may be better off without their companies taking all their money and restricting their freedom.
Regardless of my feelings on the JYJ case, it was not right of SM to basically blackmail other media companies by threatening to pull their artists from tv lineups and such if they ever promoted the members of JYJ. I don't think they could pull the same thing today because their influence is much less than it used to be and right now they're going through an internal power struggle.

A few years ago, SM was the most powerful entertainment company in Korea. It was home to powerful groups that led the entire second generation, such as Girls' Generation, SHINee, Super Junior, and FX. Even with the third generation, groups like EXO, Red Velvet, and NCT continued to achieve huge profits, but The fourth generation is completely different and it's all over. Especially with the development of Hype, groups such as leserafim new jeans enhypen txt are taking the lead and little by little SM is disappearing from the limelight... actually ...it is not just SM, but even YG and JYP, the same thing happens to them... at The third generation (2014 -2019) K-Pop has known fierce competition from the four major companies, but now the competition has become less

GOOD START! Keep refusing or terminate these big agency contracts until they learn to treat their idols better. Independent is the way to go. Own your own music rights, KNOW your financial status and actually GET paid, control your schedule and image, pick your own sound. Like to me the only reason why an idol is even apart of the company isnāt to make music but is to be an āidolā. Get famous and maybe sing some songs. But with the restrictions in placed in these big agencies contracts there no way majority are actual artists but instead puppets used to make money.

It's a shame how SM went down to this. They were a powerful company in the 2.000's and early 2.010's, and most (if not all) of their artists were titans in the industry.
Now, I barely hear about SM artist anymore.
Aespa's management is HORRIBLE, Taeyeon's management is poor and she has to do most of the work herself, EXO members are having hard issues with SM lately, Red Velvet is basically forgotten and locked in SM's basement...
Is a shame tbh.
I used to stan SM as a whole, but now I can't just for the lack of comebacks and promotions, and I only stan artists I truly like (Taeyeon, aespa and Red Velvet mainly).
Nowadays I stan JYP artist much more (Stray Kids and Twice mainly) since they have lots of comebacks and things going on.

No offense but other fandoms (newer) don't understand what EXO has gone through for a decade. Shitty treatment for members and fans for a decade, can you imagine? We even lost 3 members by lawsuit. I really really wish your faves wouldn't experience this, I really do. So please stop hating them, just understand and support them. D.O. is my ult bias, and I think this is not a sudden decision, and he's not going to leave EXO. Members still call him "Uri Kyungsoo" to this day. LSM teacher is no longer in charge of SM, and D.O.'s mentor Yoo Young Jin left SM this year too. So there's nothing to do with SM except EXO promotions. PLEASE SUPPORT ALL THE MEMBERS, WE ARE ONE, SARANGHAJAš„°

People need to realize something. If an artist leaves it could be for various reasons, some don't want to be idols for the rest of their lives, some don't like the managment, some want to open their own company. It's just like any regular corporation worker. Newer generations are very unlikely to stay with a company for more than 5 years. Their are so many opportunties nowadays. Most of these artists have no hard feelings toward SME, both parties got what they wanted. Also SME had the lowest turnover rate out of any company so they must be doing something right.

EXO doesn't need SM, SM needs EXO
