Seohyun opened up about her decision to leave SM Entertainment.

The idol actress recently engaged in an interview with MK Sports to talk about her latest drama 'Bad Thief, Good Thief'. During the interview, Seohyun also shared about leaving SM Entertainment; her label for the past 15 years (Seohyun joined SM in 2002).

She stated, "It's not like I made the decision because I felt like I needed to be under a (new or different) agency to work." Seohyun added, "Nothing really special has led me to leave. It's just that I wanted to be alone. I wanted to make every decision on my own and in order to do so, I wanted to meet people who could help me and during that process, I've come across my current agency."

Seohyun continued, "I think I still need time to understand myself. When I'm done doing so, I plan to create a one-man agency or find a new label."

As for Girls' Generation, she commented, "Even if we're under different labels, Girls' Generation will be forever so we definitely plan to promote."
