The LUHAN situation
Ok, now I'm on my laptop and hopefully can order my thoughts a little more. I'm going to bullet point because I've been thinking about this a lot.
- I'm sad that Luhan is leaving but I think it's what's best for him. His health is clearly terrible right now and we all know how SM treats its idols. They probably only gave him this time off because they were worried about something like this happening.
- Sm's statement on the whole thing was incredibly y tbh. It was like they were managing to drag Kris into this and blame him for everything with all those comments about how similar their cases were and how they're using the same reasons to leave and using the same law firm to help them. The complaints are the same, most likely, because the problems in your company are real and they're using that law firm because they won Hangeng's case for him.
- The racism! Omg, I heard it from the K-netizens when Kris left and now again with Luhan. Just makes me believe more and more that the Chinese members will have experienced the same within SM. (also, is it racism, since they're all Asian? Isn't hating on people of the same race from a different country xenophobia?)
- Bias against Kris. Some fans really on Kris when he left but those same people are supporting Luhan. Does he just have more fans? I know they say Kris did it at the worst time, before the tour, and didn't tell anyone while Luhan didn't leave everyone at a bad time and clearly told them but still... I feel like maybe they are all suspcious now and saw this coming like many fans did and that's why they're not reacting like with Kris. Kris was more shocking to them. Also, Kris seemed to have a more introverted personality. Maybe he felt like if he told them what was going on he'd be talked out of it, maybe the timing was his law firm's fault and maybe something really bad happened then that made him snap. We just don't know.
- I support Luhan and Kris and I hope we can see them together again at some point. I hope both of their careers fly after this.
- What about EXO-M? Will they add new Chinese members? Will someone from Exo-K switch over to even up the numbers? How wil they manage as 4 with their 2 most popular members gone? I feel bad for Lay and Tao who probably feel everyone will be suspicious of them from now on and Chen and Xiumin who have worked so hard in such a difficlt situation. Especially Chen. He's too talented for this , distracting people from noticing his amazing voice.
Ok, I'm going to have to stop. This is just... too much for me to handle. Poor Exo.
