Did Girls’ Generation Sunny leave SM? “Her name didn’t appear in 16th debut anniversary message”

There is speculation that Girls’ Generation Sunny left SM Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as “SM”).

Girl group Girls’ Generation celebrated their 16th debut anniversary on August 5th.

Messages from Taeyeon, Hyoyeon, Yuri and Yoona were posted on the fan platform “Kwangya Club” operated by SM Brand Marketing. The members also posted autographs along with the message saying, “Let’s always be together.”

However, there were only 4 names, and no messages or autographs Sunny left for fans could be found.

In the midst of this, fans are speculating that Sunny does not seem to have renewed her contract with SM.

In 2017, Girls’ Generation Tiffany, Sooyoung and Seohyun moved to other agencies without renewing their contracts with SM Entertainment, which they had been with for 10 years. At that time, some netizens commented “Girls’ Generation disbanded” and “I can’t see the complete group anymore“, but SM said, “There is no disbandment of Girls’ Generation.”

In fact, Girls’ Generation, which celebrated their 15th debut anniversary last year, released the 7th full-length album “FOREVER1” and carried out music show schedules together even though the members belong to different agencies. Besides, they appeared JTBC’s reality program “Soshi Tamtam” and boasted their chemistry as well as friendship.

Sunny is also expected to continue team activities even if she leaves SM.

Meanwhile, Sunny is the niece of SM’s former executive producer Lee Soo Man. Last February, Lee Soo Man announced his resignation at the same time as the announcement of the “SM 3.0 era”.
