It seems that Kim Ki Bum's contract with SM Entertainment has finally come to an end. There were always questions as to whether the star, who was technically still a member of Super Junior last we heard, would return to the group, but it looks like it's now very unlikely.

Kim Ki Bum posted to Instagram a few hours ago, "2015 August 18th. Finished with SM Entertainment. Let's begin my new life...!!! Thank you to SM, who was with me until this time." The idol-turned-actor has not been active with Super Junior for 6 years and has been pursuing an acting career since he started his hiatus.

SM Entertainment has also confirmed that Kim Ki Bum's exclusive contract with the agency has come to an end.

Stay tuned for updates from Kim Ki Bum!
