1. [+3,171, -111] With the Chinese market growing so big in the entertainment industry, it's no wonder that SM won't give up on their Chinese members even after being betrayed by them. I understand the circumstances but they should really be looking at the bigger picture... the longevity of the team is more important for fandoms to grow thicker and stronger which will of course bring in more foreign money in return... they shouldn't be focusing on the profits they see in the market right before them but the future of the team instead..

2. [+2,925, -69] And I'm sure my money's a part of that income...

3. [+2,827, -182] There's a reason some of the best upcoming talents all aspire to be under SM. They really give you the push to become the best star possible.

4. [+1,797, -484] They better be investigated for all their taxes properly

5. [+494, -69] Of course, think of their money makers... they have SNSD, Super Junior, SHINee, EXO, TVXQ, and they all had comebacks this year too! Do well, SM

6. [+407, -10] Now I see why they can't give up on the Chinese market... but SM really needs to tighten up their contracts for the Chinese if so;;; I hate how the Chinese just take the talents from right under our noses as soon as we finish training them

7. [+421, -34] People hate on SM but anyone who wants to be an idol is desperate to get in

8. [+383, -27] Well there's never been a time where SM put out SHINee, EXO, SND, Red Velvet, SuJu, and BoA out all at once
