SMROOKIES Hansol Leaving SM Entertainment?

Many fans of NCT/SMROOKIES know Hansol as he is a very popular trainee under the agency.

He was expected to debut with the first few NCT units but as of now, he has still not debuted. He took part in the SMROOKIES concert and was among the popular members, also one of the oldest from SMROOKIES. The singer was even featured in J-Min’s music video for “Shine” 2 years ago.

Now, the trainee has opened an official Instagram account under the name @jisol_11 and while he gained over 50k followers in a short time, fans are not happy. Many know that trainee’s and recent debuted artists under SM Entertainment do not create social media accounts so when he created his account and did not follow an SM Entertainment artist, many speculated he is leaving the agency.

This is not the first time a popular trainee has left SM Entertainment to join another agency. Jinho who is now a Pentagon member, was a favorite SM trainee as he debuted with the project group SM the Ballad but ended up leaving the company to pursue his career as a Pentagon member under Cube Entertainment.

While not much is known, we can only wait and see how things go for the trainee.
