A few days ago, XANDER opened up to fans about his feelings on the disbandment of so many K-Pop groups.
The former U-KISS member took to Twitter to shed some light on the reason so many great groups are breaking up. This year the list has included 2NE1, Secret, and 4MINUTE, among others. While some groups disbanded for personal reasons, others disbanded because of “the seven year curse”, which is a nickname for the fact that the last generation of K-Pop groups were all on a 7-year-long contract, and it’s finally coming to an end.
The following series of tweets come from XANDER’s heart, empathizing with and comforting fans. He even gives a small, but powerful, piece of advice.
It’s sad how groups of my ‘era’ are disappearing one by one. The fact is that standard contract by law is 7 years maximum. Now u know why…

That is why people respect SHINHWA despite each member has his own direction/goal. But who knows? Maybe some groups might comeback suddenly.

I must say some groups have become so iconic that they are absolutely irreplaceable. #2NE1 I just feel like I haven’t had enough from them.:relieved:

But for fandoms, stay tight together n keep the good memories. Business perspective: if demand is high, definitely gonna supply someday.:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

The responses to the posts have been overwhelmingly positive, with many fans thanking XANDER for his comforting message.
