Another exciting week in the world of K-Pop! Here are the top three stories from the past week.

Chinese Media Reports Surfaced of Further Departures from EXO

International fans of popular boy band EXO found themselves worrying once again that members of the once-twelve member idol group would lose additional members.  Entertainment industry insiders in China wrote that EXO's Tao and one other member would leave the SM Entertainment group, and one insider said that EXO would disband by the end of 2015.

Neither SM Entertainment nor the members denied or confirmed the rumors.

Concerns For Future of 4-Member 2NE1 Surface

The news that 2NE1's lead vocalist, Park Bom, will not attend SBS's year end award show while the other three members will attend, once again raised the question of whether 2NE1's days are numbered.

CL's recently announced solo debut in the United States has left many fans worried, and a recent appearance on America's Next Top Model where 2NE1 was introduced as "CL and 2NE1" has led to consternation from fans of the YG Entertainment girl group.

Super Junior's Sungmin Gets Married 

On December 13, Sungmin became one of the first popular male idols to get married in the midst of promotions. Sungmin married actress Kim Sa Eun in Seoul, with various members of the Korean entertainment industry in attendance, including several Super Junior members.

Despite his marriage, Sungmin has assured fans that he will return to regular promotions as a Super Junior member following his return from his honeymoon to the Maldives.
