Recently, Ten guested on Episode 2 of Super Junior-D&E, Eunhyuk and Donghae‘s YouTube channel “DNE comment ‘Hey, Come here.’”
The three men reminisced as they are former labelmates. The Super Junior members were Ten’s seniors under SM Entertainment.

Donghae and Eunhyuk left SM Entertainment last year. They have since established their own agency, ODE Entertainment.

So, during the episode, the two revealed that their fingerprints would be removed from SM Entertainment, so they could no longer enter the building easily.
donghae and eunhyuk told that their fingerprint are being removed since they left the company.

As the conversation continued, Donghae asked Ten if he, too, would leave. Ten replied, saying that he would 100% leave.

The clip went viral as netizens laughed over Ten’s “confession.”

donghae: are u going to leave the company after this?
ten: 100%.. 100% out

Donghae’s question could actually be interpreted in multiple ways. In the context, it could sound as if Ten was being asked if he, too, would leave SM Entertainment. Yet, another interpretation is, “Are you not going to come out (on Donghae and Eunhyuk’s show) anymore (because we are in different companies)?” So, Ten was concerned about offending his seniors and replied that he would continue to visit them.
So, Eunhyuk followed up by asking Ten if he was truly leaving SM Entertainment. Ten clarified that he didn’t understand the question since Korean isn’t his first language.
eh: you’re leaving the company, 100%?
ten: #ten later clarifies that it’s because his korean language skills is not good pic.twitter.com/fEDBkBsZdr
