oh i never meant that YOU do this, i was just reacting in general cos of all the stupidity that's flying around on tumblr. i'm sorry, i didn't mean to make you feel i was accusing you of anything.
about why SM has a longer record of artistes suing - i had a think about this and i think it's significant that everyone who's sued has gone on to have really successful careers elsewhere. idols from smaller companies can't do this because they don't have the same clout the former SM artistes have built up. that's obviously not the whole picture but i do think it plays a part in why shinhwa, jyj and geng chose to leave. i'm trying to think of a company as big as and that has been around for the same length of time as SM and the only ones i can come up with is probably jyp/yg (tho i'm probably wrong): interesting to note no one from those companies have sued.
sigh, after the geng debacle we all hoped SM would change, and we were hopeful that park youngmin taking over would mean a departure from the old ways. now im just scared for exo's remaining foreign members (especially yixing! god, he reminds me so much of geng it hurts.)
