Former SM Entertainment Idol Tells All About What It's Like To Leave The Agency

A former SM Entertainment idol has spoken about what it was like for him to leave the agency.

On November 13th, Sung Si Kyung 's YouTube channel released a video featuring Kyuhyun of Super Junior .

In the video, Sung Si Kyung mentioned Kyuhyun's move from SM Entertainment, where he had spent 17 years, to Antenna . Sung Si Kyung said, " You're doing well. We talked so much when you were changing companies. I told you it was fine whether you stayed or left, no problem at all. "

He recalled their conversation before Kyuhyun left, saying, " It's so scary before you leave. 'Everything becomes your responsibility, but your earnings will definitely improve.' "

Kyuhyun expressed gratitude, saying, " Beyond the earnings, I think I was able to take on the challenge thanks to you. Didn't you say back then that if I had a hard time, you'd introduce me to people and help with performances? "

In response, Sung Si Kyung said, " You can say that to someone too, right? For example, when someone who's been at a big agency for a long time is afraid before leaving. "

He added, " I told you it was okay to stay at SM. You gain something by staying, and you gain something by leaving. I never told you to leave. Either way is fine, " praising Kyuhyun for how he handled the situation. Kyuhyun agreed, " There are definitely pros and cons. "

When Sung Si Kyung said, " Isn't it yours now? This Asia tour, the album, too, " Kyuhyun replied, " The good thing about leaving is that I can negotiate conditions for the tour myself. "

Sung Si Kyung compared it to the movie The Matrix , saying, " Do you stay comfortably protected, or do you unplug like in The Matrix and step out? I think knowing is the right choice, " to which Kyuhyun expressed concern, " That might encourage quitting too much. "

Sung Si Kyung clarified it wasn't meant that way, adding, " Not just anyone can leave, and some shouldn't leave. " Kyuhyun emphasized, " There are pros and cons. When juniors ask, I explain without bias, staying neutral. "
