EXO2 more months to go, hopefully it'll past by very quickly because 2014 is such a bad luck year for Kpop...
luhan wants to nullify his contract with Sm :
[Exclusive! #Exo Luhan Contract Nullification#] Sina Entertainment exclusively received information that Korean boy group EXO's Chinese member Luhan sent(1) an indictment to Seoul District Court via his representative lawyer this morning, and with the claims that his contract with SM Entertainment is null and void. This is the second Chinese member of Exo after Wu Yifan, who also applied to nullify his contract on 15th May, to apply for contract nullification in less than 5 months. Sina Entertainment will continue to follow this incident as it develops. Details: http://t.cn/RhsVNxy

T/N:
(1) 鹿晗於今天上午: I'm not quite sure about the tense of this, it's either "Luhan will be/將於 sending this morning" or "Luhan sent/於 this morning." Obviously, these two are quite different, as one is already simple past tense but the other is future continuous tense. Both require further verification before either can be confirmed, but I'd say that "sent" is slightly more concrete than a speculative "will be sending".
Reason for nullifacation :
About Luhan's nullfication news, Sina Entertainment has also found out not too long ago, and did not have more details to expose. Today around 9am, Luhan's representative lawyer has sent in his appeal to the district courts, Sina Entertainment investigated into it, and found out a few major reasons for Luhan's contract nullification.
1) The company was unable to deliver a proposal for future career expansion;
2) Differences in treatment of Chinese and Korean members;
3) Resources were not distributed reasonably;
4) His body has developed medical symptoms during the conditions of high pressure and high intensity work.
Around mid May, Exo member Wu Yifan also announced nullification of his contract, his representing lawyer stated that the major source of conflict was concentrated in three areas, "Firstly is inhibition of personal artistic expansion; secondly, income/profit is distributed unfairly; thirdly, SM did not care about the health and conditions of the artist." From this comparison, we can see that the two situations have rather high similarities.
Lay weibo update about Luhan :
"Ge-men(1), goodbye! If there's a chance in the future, we'll reunite on the same stage! As brothers, [I will](2) support every one of your decisions. Blessing you."
T/N:
(1) Yixing uses 哥们, which can be understood to mean either
- a plural form of 哥/ge, indicating that he's referring to more than one older male
- 哥们 can also be used as "bro", colloquially to refer to intimate close friends
(2) 做兄弟的, or "Those who are brothers". The line can be also understood as "those who are brothers will support every one of your decisions" and does not explicitly refer to only himself, could also be referring to other members.
