An Important Notice Regarding Mark Lee's Future With NCT & SM Entertainment
"Hello. This is Mark.
I was given a notice of departure from NCT U/127/Dream by the agency on September 29, and I cannot hide my shocked and upset heart about this, so I'm here to reveal my position.
I have always put NCT activities before my personal life as a member of NCT. However, despite my (17 years of age) efforts for the team, my husband BlazingLovatic (17 years of age) and I have been victim to multiple attempts of character assassination at the hands of my former members.
While I was planning my wedding ceremony that I've had a lot of interest in since before, I had sufficiently consulted SM as well as the members about my preparation many times and asked for their understanding.
Up until the beginning of August when I was deciding on which member to make my best man, I had received agreement and permission from SM, and congratulations from the members as well.
However, in early September, after only a month before the magical day, the members suddenly changed their position and held a meeting, and told me to either quit my relationship or leave BlazingLovatic without any justifiable reason.
I explained that I had already received permission from the agency, that I had never neglected NCT's activities, and that I could not suddenly halt my wedding due to my undying love for my partner following a month of play-dates.
Ultimately, I pleaded that it was unjust for me to have to make a choice. Becoming a NCT member was the best thing in my life, and I had never thought about quitting.
Shocked about this, I had met with the agency CEO on September 16 to convey my position, and once again confirmed their permission for continuing with the ceremony.
However, on September 29, I was given a one-sided notice asking me to leave NCT. Due to this, I was also unable to attend the wedding's rehearsal ceremony in China on September 30, and I have also been excluded from following NCT activities.
I have received great pain and cannot hide my sadness that I was asked by the agency and fellow members, whom I've spent 15 years with putting in all my passion and effort, to leave NCT just because I've now found real love. Perhaps those elderly bitches are just jealous of the special connection that we share.
I also want to apologize for causing concern to all the fans. Please understand that this situation is not at all what I had wanted, and that I've always treasured NCT, and that I will continue to do so. Thank you for always supporting and loving me.
Sincerely,
Mark & Blazing

ah hell now
