If you're a long-time K-pop fan, then rumors and speculations in the industry are no longer surprising. Usually, companies or the aritsts themselves are quick to shut them down, but there are some rare cases in which these rumors actually ended up being true.
It's common knowledge for K-Pop fans that idols split their revenue with their company, whether it be 50/50 or less. However, some idols have spoken out and revealed that they were either not properly paid for the work they did or just flat out not paid at all.
While others leave the girls following a scandal or after losing popularity, these idols left the groups suddenly, leaving fans worried and curious as to why they chose to depart from their group.
