Mark leaving NCT and SM…. omg wth is happening (Patreon)

Yall… I just woke up to pee and I see a text from my lil sis 😳

This is why the Dreamies cried so hard at the encore 🥺🥺 It was so out of the norm for them to cry that hard. Knew something was coming. Anyone who have watched their tours, it was never that bad 😭😭

This is especially surprising for me cause he’s not remaining in NCT unlike so many solo announcements/separation from their companies (except Heeseung which was also a shock) — he’s going complete solo. Man this is gonna be the new norm now…

While I support his decision, can I be honest for one sec?

I am honestly so sad that one of my favorite groups (NCT) have had this fate. Just an accumulation of many different events leading to members leaving etc. NCT has such a special place in my heart given it is one of the first groups outside BTS that I did reactions for and they have given me so much joy, especially during Covid when we all felt like our world have collapsed. SuperM too. Loved that combo so much.

I am not blaming Mark at all — he has given SO MUCH to his groupS and to SM. He is an incredible talent and musician. His solo album remains as one of the best I’ve heard so I have no doubt he will thrive as a soloist. I just hope that he finds a new label or sets up a new label that would do him justice (given with what’s been happening recently with others).

One thing I didn’t foresee in being a Kpop stan is all these changes happening and the will you NEED to be able to keep going. As a fan, I’ve had so many heartbreaks for so long now. So many of my faves have left their groups with all different circumstances. When you consume as much Kpop as me, it gets really tough.

Sigh… 😔

With all that said, Mark deserves his own time. He’s been in so many groups with little rest and with so much work. Looking forward to seeing his artistry expand and for him to be able to experience the world 💚
