[ASKKPOP] Weekly recap: Cry me a river, damper on the party, and hands off!
Amber tells it like it is
The usually genial and benignf(x)memberAmberwas forced to get stern with all her haters. Ina lengthy post that she uploaded on her personal Instagram, the singer stressed how not everyone is the same and thanked the people close to her for always encouraging and supporting her. She then wrote an inspiring message to everyone--including her haters--to stay true to themselves. Yaassss girl, I agree with you. You tell 'em!
SM strikes back
SM Entertainmentseems to have had enough antics of past EXO members. WhileTao spilled tears on a Chinese program recalling the difficult times he faced alone in Korea, SM spared no empathy for the singer. SM seems resolute and have attempted toblock Tao's activities by taking down his solo MV. The label has recentlytaken legal action against Kris for his activities in China as well,
While I understand that there is the possibility that SM may have treated them harshly, I don't believe it's right (I don't want to use such a strong word as 'moral') for the past EXO members to just up and leave so abruptly. They had a duty to fulfill their contracts with SM and they just totally treated their responsibility towards the company, EXOandtheir fans like none of them held significance for them. I may not be an EXO fan, but I'm getting upsetforall theEXO-L's who are probably angered and sad about the sudden and ugly departure of the Kris,Luhan, and now Tao.

Good going, JYP!The netizen quickly posted an apologyto Bae Yong Joon and J.Y. Park - but notably missed out apologizing to Park Soo Jin.
