So... after reading a few articles here and there, along with some comments.

I'm just going to take a wild guess that SM's 'official statement' is really hiding a few things.  It's worded carefully and sounds like they're trying to avoid saying exactly what happened.

First of all, they wouldn't release her because she can't handle the activiies along with her new company.  SNSD members are models, actresses, radio DJ's, you name it.  Jessica can handle a fashion company and miss a few events if Sooyoung or Yoona can do the same becaue they're filming.

So that whole reason is... well... I'll let you finish that sentence.

(I am avoiding swearing because I'm more angry than sad)

And her whole relationship with Tyler Kwon shouldn't affect anything.  I'm sure all of our members are or will soon be dating.  She is no different.

So, SM.

That leaves the last reason.

To me, that leaves one last reason.  I'm starting to believe those fans' comments that are saying that SM wants a piece of Blanc's profits.

If that is the case... well.  SM is doing a great job of living up to their name as greedy pigs.
