The person who signed the lease would be on the hook. If the property management arranged the whole thing then they probably could only come after you for your portion. This is a mess. If you are all on the lease then since you have already moved out just tell the selfish couple you are done and they are on their own if they don't agree to take the replacement people on ... a month or two of the lease not being paid is going to cause big issues after a while with the landlord. In the end the person or people on the lease would be on the hook, AND usually the lease hold you individually liable..which means the landlord could come after you for the whole amount... but if you have NOTHING what can they really do?

I suggest finding a person who is fluent in the dialect of Chinese that these people speak, and ask that person to tell these people that you are going to the immigration authorities and report them for immigration irregularities based on the fact that they want to blackmail you with the additional stipulations they demand... Tell them this may not work, but that the immigration people are not going to be happy about it, and will now have them on their radar.. The Chinese culture is unlike our Western culture in that they do not respond to subtilty well. Let them know that our government frowns on their behavior, and have your interpreter tell them they'd better just let you out of your lease unless they want the authorities to become negatively aware of them immediately... If they refuse, do it. Call immigration and ask them to visit your home and talk to the people. They may not do it, but then again they might? These are not nice people, you do know that, I'm sure. So don't worry about offending them. They do not respect you. There is no easy way to do this….

To terminated the lease is to terminate the agreement for the apartment, and all parties have to agree. The best case for you is to discuss the matter with the roommates that you signed the agreement with to learn of a compromise. I am a little confused about some of things you wrote, for example the number of people that were living in the apartment, was it three or four? The moral of the matter, why is the married couple concerned with the morals of two people that will solve the problem in connection with $20.00?

The $2000 is probably a total fine if everyone backs out. You might be able to get around this if you can find a replacement. Read the contract and there might be able to get around the fine somehow.
