SM Entertainment’s Boy Group Collapses After More Than Half Of The Members Leave

More than half of the group has left the company.

SuperM was once promoted as SM Entertainment’s “Avengers of K-Pop,” bringing together top members from different groups. But now the group is technically down to just three members still under the company.

Over the past few years, several members have either left the company or chosen not to renew their contracts. Baekhyun, Taemin, Mark, and Ten have all moved on in different ways, whether through contract disputes, expirations, or mutual decisions.

That leaves Kai, Taeyong, and Lucas as the only SuperM members still signed under SM Entertainment.

Kai continues to be active as part of EXO and his solo career. Taeyong remains a core member of NCT and its units after completing his military service. Lucas, meanwhile, left NCT but is still under SM and has been slowly resuming individual activities.

Even so, SuperM itself hasn’t shown any real signs of returning. With most of its lineup no longer tied to the company, a full-group comeback looks extremely unlikely.

At this point, the group exists more as a past project than an active team. And with only three members left in SM, SuperM’s future feels all but decided.
