After over 17 years each, Super Junior’s Donghae, Eunhyuk, and Kyuhyun are parting ways with SM Entertainment.
On July 14, SM Entertainment officially announced, “Eunhyuk, Donghae, and Kyuhyun have not renewed their contracts with us and will each be pursuing individual activities.”
However, all three Super Junior members will still be continuing their activities with the rest of the group under SM Entertainment.
“Eunhyuk, Donghae, and Kyuhyun will be continuing their Super Junior promotions together with SM,” said SM Entertainment. “We will be cheering the three of them on as they take on new challenges, and we plan to communicate closely with them so that they can effectively carry out both their group activities and their solo activities at the same time.”
Meanwhile, the remaining members of Super Junior—Leeteuk, Kim Heechul, Yesung, Shindong, Choi Siwon, and Ryeowook—have all renewed their contracts with the agency.
Donghae and Eunhyuk both debuted as members of Super Junior in 2005, while Kyuhyun joined the group one year later in 2006.
