I was going to put this picture in another catagory (because it's such a cute picture), but I woke up in the middle of the night (about 2:00am) to find this news flooding my twitter account:
Hankyung Requests To Terminate His Contract
Looks like SM Entertainment just might lose another star... After the JaeChunSu trio turned their backs against their company in regards to their unfair contract, Hankyung (Hangeng) of Super Junior decided to follow their lead and attempt to opt out as well.
According to a related source in China, Hankyung filed a request at the Seoul Central District Court to make his contract with SM Entertainment null and void at noon on the 21st.
Hankyung, who is well-known as the only Chinese member in Super Junior, is popular amongst both the Asian youth and media. With his good reputation and talent, many speculated that the singer would go on to have a very successful solo career as well. However, rumor has it that the contract forbade Hankyung from pursuing a solo career, creating a rift that led to this contract termination request.
The press stated,
"No specific details have yet been released towards this termination request. However, it is likely the reason is because of the unfairness the contract holds in regards to Hankyung's personal development."
Currently, Hankyung's legal representative is remaining silent. However, allkpop.com will be sure to provide further details of this hot news.
So what do you guys think? Is Super Junior finally reaching its end, downfall after downfall? Since SM Entertainment has yet to confirm anything, I guess we'll just have to see.

I'm saddened by this news but I think Kyuhyun summed it up best by saying:
"Even a beast don't bite the hand that feeds one...I can not understand..."
