Well this news is not new to us anymore. Hope we can know soon which agency Young Saeng and Kyu Jong will be in.
Anyway, Young Saeng knows that the we are all worrying about his and Kyu's future. He mentioned in his cyworld yesterday that they don't know as well but he's positive that things will work out smoothly soon and that there will be good news soon.
Meanwhile, read what DSP has to say about Kyu Jong and Young Saeng. Thanks to Ode for the translation oh her blog.

Group SS501's members Kim Hyun Joong, Park Jung Min and Kim Hyung Jun has had left their previous agency DSP Media ever since their contract with them expired. Admist which, remaining members Kim Kyu Jong and Heo Young Saeng are said to be moving into new agencies as well.
A related personnel from DSP Media mentioned in a phone interview with TV Report, "Heo Young Saeng and Kim Kyu Jong will be moving into new agencies as well. As to when and which agency they will be moving into, there are no concrete decisions made for now".
In addition, "All the members do not want SS501 to break up, despite each moving into various agencies, they will still maintain activities together. Though there are no official and confirmed decisions yet, in future when SS501 release albums or have concerts/events, DSP Media will be directly and indirectly participating in them".
-2nd last paragraphs omit, talks about expiry of contract-
On the other hand, Kim Hyun Joong is shooting for his new MBC drama Playful Kiss, whilst Park Jung Min and Kim Hyung Jun are preparing for their acting career and overseas venturing.

smart dsp!! They wont leave their cow money!! sigh poor ss501!! I hope everything will going well!! Cant wait for ys and kj news!! I'm really curious about this two because they are my fav!
From the looks of it, the relations between the boys and DSP did not turn sour. Their peaceful transfers may have been made in consensus with DSP. No matter what, from what the news reports tell us, I would think that DSP is rather admirable in their handling of this matter. If it's true that they feel that they can't handle the boys full time no more, they were gracious enough to let them go, one by one. DSP ain't stupid, they definitely know and see the value in this group they nurtured. I think that they would have held on tightly to them if they could. But i guess they too saw that it benefitted everyone as a whole (even DSP themselves) for them to transfer to other agencies for their individual careers.
No matter what, whether they did a good job or not, we wouldn't have known the SS501 we know today if not for DSP who discovered them in the first place. They do deserve some credit for the name of the group.
Really looking forward to what saengi and kyu has in stall for us all. These two are so mysterious and cute, especially with them still holidaying happily. Probably catching up on all the times lost, and making up in advance for those that they will lose when they start activities all over again =)
Yes, I pretty much applaud dsp for handling this well. They don't totally let go of ss501 (which is good, to be honest) but don't mind to transfer the members to other companies.
But I'm glad finally kj and ys make up their decisions. These two seem to be the least ambitious of all...
The problem is, we miss youuuuu!!
Kj can act and ys has that superb amazing voice. He can make a solo album, actually.
And I think baby, ys and jungmin also have potential to be composers.
I agree with every word anonymous 11:19!
I know DSP could have done a better job promoting and managing SS501 but we can't say they did anything bad to them and that's why I respect DSP.
With all due respect to DSP, the agency did a fantastic job of discovering, training and launching the charismatic SS501 we know and love - that took a certain amount of risk but DSP saw it through and we can enjoy SS501 for their vocal & dance and even hosting skills.
KYUSaeng my fave! finally, new agencies for both of them. too much partying, ne... (YS also knows that we are concerned for him and Kyu as he said in his cyworld)
YS in his cyworld also (again)tried bungee jumping 108 storeys high, laughing the fact that you pay while risking your life, tsk,tsk,tsk
about DSP, no questions and hands down, they did a good job with SS501. what i don't like (though its part of their job) was the strict/tight schedule they had for the 5,also producing albums that are always delayed or should I say limited albums,
Tight schedules seem to be the norm for most Korean idol groups, probably the agency's form of control and discipline. However, ever I chanced to hear a interview of what Hangeng ( ex Suju ) had to endure, I think DSP is more humane. Also, the managers are genuinely fond of the SS501 members and even now, they have close attachment to each other.
Yep DSP might sucks in marketing and management of their artists but at least they treat them well and gave them more freedom unlike one big agency(SM) which treat their artists as products not as human. I also read about how they treated their most celebrated group DBSK. They work them to death until all 5 got sick and have to be send them to the hospital to have IVs so they can work them to their limit again.
