EXO’s Kris—or Wu Yifan—has been confirmed to have filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment demanding for his withdrawal from his exclusive contract. Rumors have been circulating since early quarter of 2013 that Kris already wants to leave his group before they even promoted their first studio album, XOXO (Kiss & Hug). Chinese media site Sina earlier reported that Kris formally requested the Seoul Central District Court to nullify his exclusive contract with SM Entertainment. SM Entertainment, on the other hand, confirmed through TV Daily that Kris did file a lawsuit for termination of his contract. As translated in English, “We currently are working determining the facts regarding Kris’s lawsuit requesting for the termination of his contract. “Although we are taken aback with the unexpected news, we will make every effort for EXO’s activities to go smoothly.” The South Korean media outlet also links Kris’s lawsuit to Hangeng, former member of Super Junior, who also filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment to nullify his contract with the agency. Enews 24 reported that Hankyul, the law firm which represented Hangeng in his lawsuit against SM Entertainment, will be handling the case. Atty. Cho Bum Suk will be representing Kris personally. Cho Bum Suk also confirmed the news with the Korean media outlet via telephone. He said, as translated in English: “It’s true that Kris has filed a lawsuit today against SM Entertainment to withdraw from his contract.” The law firm also told the Korean press that they will handle the case quietly and won’t be entertaining any interviews from the press about the case. Reasons why Kris decided to file the lawsuit against SM Entertainment is yet to be confirmed. The hashtags #WeBeliveInYouKris and “Leaving EXO” have become trending topics worldwide.

Dara had expected this, even before the first week of May. That's why this news doesn't shocked her anymore but she can't still help but to think of what his fellow members will think of and what would they've felt after reading this, or probably thet actually read  this. Knowing of her boyfriend's fandom, This news will make it to everyone as fast as the blink of an eye and the rude comments just make her felt sad for him.

"Darong, are you ready? Chaerin ne----- Is there something wrong?" Before Dara could turn to face her, Bom is now standing in front of her lifting her chin up. " Something's wrong." Bom knows when one of her bestfriend had something on her mind. The last time she saw her like this was 2 years ago, when Jiyong had cheated on her.

Instead of answering, Dara gave her phone to her and that's when that her speculations proved to be true. Something's wrong though it didn't concern Dara, He was after all her boyfriend and the comments below the article is far worse that she'd ever read.

"You know this?" 

"Ne. I just feel bad, It's a battle he can't win.. But still, he tried." Ofcourse Kris will be granted his wish to terminate his contract under SM but the toll after this will be the one that she dread. Just look at Hangeng, JYJ and a few others...

"He can't win this." Bom told her as she let the first one dragged her outside.

They are in the middle of promotions and what will happen to the M unit, plus the concer is just days away. But Tao, don't see it that way. His head automatically round to his hyung and said:

"You know what happened hyung, We know everything about it and yet you still asked." Tao said while looking straight into his eyes, Jaw clenched and eyes piercing.

"That's rude Tao." Lay reminded him.

Tao fell silent, he knew that it's rude but he can't  accept what just happened 24 hours ago. How could his duizhang never told them about it, or atleast inform him, After all they were the best buddy, for he looked up for Kris as an older brother while Kris treat him as his younger brother, more specially than the others.

Unable to hold the silence that engulfing them Chanyeol said in his unusual serious tone. "We need to talk
