Twitter exploded on May 14th with the rumor that Kris from the popular boy band EXO is suing SM Entertainment and leaving the group. The only source of this information has been from the Chinese news website Sina.
Needless to say, the internet freaked out and Kpop fans don’t know what to believe.
Here’s a summary that one fan posted based off of the Sina article.
There was a downpour of fan reactions to this rumor, the majority demanding that this was false information.
Here is a sampling of tweets I’ve found reacting to the situation.
I do not know if any of the posts are true. Please read them as tweets that were posted, not facts.
Reaction #1: Support
#WeBelieveInYouKris also started growing in popularity
Reaction #2: Sina Actually Meant “Chris” not “Kris”
Everything stated to mash together until you get things like:
The Following Consensus Has Emerged
Apparently, SM is Denying the Rumor
That being said, the facts are still uncertain.
One thing’s for sure, I feel bad for Kris’s new Instagram account.
Let’s hope we get some concrete information soon!
Thanks for reading,

Good for him. This is the one part of K-Pop I really don’t like. Though part of me still hopes that things are getting blown out of proportion.
