Since reporting that Korean group Super Junior-M's leader Han Geng filed a contract termination request against SM Entertainment on December 21st, it has triggered many speculations from the media world. Recently, a reporter noticed that the December 30th event guest list for "Passionate Animation Festival" includes SJM's member Henry's name.
The reporter realized that Henry's name is not linked with other members, but with SM's Chinese female artist, Zhang Li Yin to sing her song, "Love Me". According to festival producers, they originally planned for the entire group to appear at the event but because of the recent lawsuit, SM declared that SJM cannot perform due to "internal reasons" and offered the Zhang Li Yin & Henry combination instead of the originally planned complete SJM group. The festival staff member then said, "Afterwards, we learned that SJM cannot attend because of Han Geng's contract termination. Currently, the company is consulting with Han Geng on this matter. During this stage of Han Geng's leave of the group, SJM will also temporarily disband, and Henry with Zhang Li Yin will represent the company by forming a group for future promotions."
About SM's temporary adjustment, the producers welcomed it. "Before SJM required 150,000 in appearance fees, now with only Henry and Zhang Li Yin, it is only 50,000. The fee difference is quite a lot."
