Honestly, I think the controversy is mostly because he announced the pregnancy and wedding like 2 days before his daughter was born. I was an older fan (both in time and age) at the time and even I was shocked 😂
Being human falling in love getting married, even having a girlfriend, hear say zero evidence ruins their careers. It's not a controversy, it's killing a career. For almost 10 yrs I have spoken out against these self-anointed self-righteous hypocrite bullies. They so deserve to be called that.
@@alexlefayI get why he did that though. It could be he didn't want his wife to be harassed while she was pregnant. Stress is bad for that. It was sudden but that's the way idols have to move unfortunately
@@flightdeparture1895 i get it, but SM should have prepared the drop better: with more time and preparing the fans slowly. Honestly, i don't care if he is married and has now two kids, but I was 29 when it happened, i had more experience than the average fan, and even I was shocked to the core 😆 Apparently he was dating the girl for a while, so they could have prepare for this better.
@@alexlefayi still dont understand why people were surprised that he had a girlfriend... Since exo debuted, there were rumors going around that chen had a girlfriend and when he confirmed it, all of a sudden everyone was shocked and was supposedly betrayed.... He owed no one any apologies. It has been years now, people should grow up and move on now.
It is also normal for older groups have members in different companies. Like Girls Generation and Super Junior also have members that left the companies, but they are still a group together.
@@Tooba-K123 I failed to see him in the latest comeback & he never participates in variety b/c he is in China. D.O is Korea-based. The OT9 crowd needs to take a breather.
@@alantes in the same way ot8 fans need to drink some water and chill out. A member doesn't need to necessarily participate in a comeback once their contract is over. It's Lay's choice if he can't participate in Exo's last comeback anymore since he already gave his last comeback in DFTF era, not to mention when he has other activities in China. D.O. only ended his contract after the last comeback, other group activities are totally complied by his own interest to invest in the group. Exo themselves says Lay is still an Exo member, who are the so-called fans to decide otherwise?
Knowing exo, they'll surely make music together as it's confirmed. Their brotherhood is too tight to be let down by that pinka$$ company. Fairly as a eri for 10+ years, I just know them enough to guess they'll tight thru it and give content. Last year's were hectic because of members enlistment so it made sense. OT8 (or 9? I fxckin wish) will soon be tight by 2025 so yea@@user-cj5mt3et7c
I don't know what the media is talking about that "EXO members are fighting"? Lol! Lay Zhang is having his 4th solo world tour concert right now and this past Sun Jun 23, 2024 he performed in Seoul Korea. Guess who was at his concert, his fellow EXO brothers cheering him on. Sehun which Lay dedicated one of his songs to and Xiumin was there along with Chanyeol. They all had cake and dinner after the concert. Lay says all EXO members are part of their own group chat and speak to each other often. Members who couldn't make Lay's concert were D.O. Kyungsoo who was in Taipai having his solo concert fan Asia tour. Baekhyun was in Thailand for his solo concert tour. Suho was in Malaysia having his solo concert tour. Chen was promoting his new solo album and Kai's in Bali on vacation as still in the military as a public service worker and yes the military allows this. Like we know from before, don't listen to media and haters, listen to the EXO members. If you follow the members IG live video's and their posts, their interviews, you'll know they're all still very close brothers and will be forever regardless if their with SM or not. EXO is the 1st K-pop group to have a CEO Line! Lol! Lay Zhang of Chromosome entertainment, D.O. Kyungsoo of Company Soosoo and Baekhyun of INB100. I'll just be so happy when they can ALL leave SM and finally be free to do the music they want to do and live their lives how they want. I'm a new baby EXO-L for a year only and EXO is thee best, live, power, soulful, RnB, group in K-pop I've ever heard. Their music is timeless, I cannot get enough of their songs from like 11 years ago until now! I'm just so sorry I didn't discover them sooner. I am trying my best to watch Lay's concert in Toronto this summer! And his new movie coming out with Jackie Chan called "A Legend" Hoping they'll release his new movie in Canada! New EXOL / XBACK from Canada!!!
thank you very much for saying it. This interview with suho is fake and media play of S.M! Exo has a personal group chat in kakaotalk, do you think cbx wouldn't say nothing about the press conference for them? a "op" said that she saw exo members together having a dinner a week before the press conference. Why cbx wouldn't say about what happening between INB100 and S.M ? impossible! even, they din't have say nothing, Suho is a leader and he has more than 18 years in S.M since trainee... He knows that the INB100 contract with S.M is only solo and subunit , not EXO! The Exclusive contract about exo is other, so, even INB100 get to punish S.M in law, for their rights, the EXO activities won't be changed because they promise honor their contract and protect EXO and their fans. Suho never would say that he was worried that the CBX actions could to put EXO future activities in danger, mainly when the maknae line comeback, it is a dirty S.M media play and unfortunatelly I saw a twitter with a person that said: they had to kill that 3 idiots before, If I was in Korea, I killed them!... this is so dangerous! And the Exols are confused, atacking Suho and CBX! Please, they don't have guilty! EXO is 9, even Lay said in his concert in Seoul : I'll never leave EXO! Please, EXOL, believe in EXO members only...it can be worse from on...
Just a correction. Kai was in Korea, not in Bali at that time. That Bali trip was months ago, and Baekhyun was in Korea during Yixing’s concert too. He was seen with his friend around his company building.
You forgot how heartbroken Kai was when he found out in just one day he had to inscript and SM forgot to manage it so his song couldn't be promoted by him.
SM is always failing to manipulate EXO-Ls to leave & go against EXO using the media & long hiatuses during their peak. Jokes on SM, we’re still here with EXO. We only believe EXO.
I love the part about SM wanting to talk with CBX again but also has to include D.O., too funny since everyone knows SM’s stocks dropped desperately when he left. Also D.O. Is white hot right now and in huge demand, this is what you get for always holding back and controlling this group not allowing them to grow internationally.
What? Why do people always measure success by how global they are? I mean yes it would be cool if everyone around the world could hear how amazing they are, as someone who thinks they are one of the most talented groups I have ever heard from any genre or country, but that's my only reason. People are missing out on this such great music. Idk, your message just rubs me the wrong way. You're like one of those fans who hype up popularity and that's just something I don't like nor put stock in because popularity comes and goes. It's only temporary. You're entitled to your views so we'll agree to disagree and leave it at that I guess lol
@@LeslieMusicFan95 you seem more like a person who likes to argue rather than enjoy EXO. I am 75 years old, enjoyed and followed EXO for over eight years. I had cancer at 70 had to do chemo and would listen to EXO during a rough period in my life. You stand corrected on your assumptions.
We've had enough media play from SM. You can never bring down EXO members' brotherhood and love for each other. You can see how they support each others' individual activities. Even SM wouldn't let go of EXO, one or 3 members leaving EXO permanently will be such a great loss to them. They cannot deny the fact that EXO's fandom is so powerful around the world and each member can even hold a solo concert and get endorsements on their own. I do hope they resolve the issue asap.
Bro they will never disband. SUHO would never allow it, he is exo and exols biggest fan ♡ I've never seen a man live and breath "we are one" as much as him
so I hope the fandom treats him well and doesn't always blame him for everything that happens to his members, especially those related to their respective solo careers.
SUHO is just an idol and a contract worker. He doesn’t have as much pull or influence outside of the role that SM has placed upon him. If the members are resentful toward the company and not making any money, why would they stay? Look at got7. They technically did not disband. But do you have hopes for them as a group in the future? It is over.
@@alantes yeah thats understood and i'm not saying he has the power to keep them together contractually. I think the exos love being a group together and would want to stay together for a long time if they had the choice
Sehun and Xiumin attended Lay's Grandline concert last week, Xiumin even doing a 2 minutes ment with Lay. They are all still going strong, despite SM's propaganda
why the people from outside fandom is worried about the disbandment more than the exols lmao. The saranghaja spirit is too strong, exo will never disband. You guys can cry about it. Anyway Chanyeol's solo debut is around the corner, can't wait😘
Yup you're right! Lay Zhang Yixing is having his solo world tour right now. He was in Seoul Korea this past Sun Jun 23, 2024 for his concert and Sehun was there. Lay dedicated his song "Right Back" to Sehun. Xiumin and Chanyeol were there too. After the concert they uploaded pictures of each other on their IG accounts eating cake. They went for dinner after. Lay has said the EXO members are part of a group chat and speak to each other often. They're still and always will be close brothers. Baekhyun was right in saying, listen and believe the EXO members. To the media, haters and SM "every time you pop off, they hoping that you fall hard, they're praying for the death of a rock star, everybody hatin' ever since you got more, they're prayin' for the death of a rock star" sorry for you haters these Legends will never die.
EXO may not break up because of “no disbandment” cases from the past. EXO will always have us, EXO-Ls and they know that we are one for life. However, (no hate, pls), I honestly think that Suho is doing the best that he can but it’s as if he’s waiting for Jongin and Sehun to complete their obligations with SM so they can all go “on hiatus” just as Super Junior has done. People, let’s face it: all of the EXO members are successful artists who have grown up and wish to live their lives away from SM. The thing is that SM is a horrible company and it will continue to make EXO’s lives a nightmare. We just need to keep supporting EXO members as individuals just as much as we do toward them as a group. We are ONE!
lol that is insane. Accounting documents can not contain company “secrets”. They have to be readily available for tax audits and presented in case of investigation by the government so if it is accounting documents everything should be transparent and available to be audited.
Ok, first of all, EXO's literal group greeting is 'WE ARE ONE'. That means whatever happens within the company or the industry, the 9 artists will always be family. We all honestly know that SM is the core of the problem, like LITERAL SLAVE CONTRACTS OF 12-13 YEARS??? EXTENDING TO 17-18 YEARS???? No one should agree to that. And their dirty tactics trying to get public opinion on their side is just showing how low they can be. Exo will always have Exo-L supporting them, so lets hope the problems get resolved soon.
Sm rarely promote them as group and worse for their solo projects.. so when cbx started promoting actively, sm wants free money?? Bs. Fans must not fell for sm's tricks
There is no group that gets crazier after 3 members leave and don't forget the biggest betrayal in 2017, and no group has as many problems as EXO. EXO is used to things like this and whatever happens later EXO will still be EXO.
@@slightlybruntthere's actual proof. BTS is great, but EXO was cheated that year. It was so bad that even SM(exo's biggest haters) decided not to let them attend the MAMAs anymore
@@slightlybruntif ur a$$ at least researched, you'd know what we mean. Make sure to educate yourself. EXO don't kiss f33t to promote, they're good knowing they've fans and talent than awards, they're those one's who straighthanded left and never returned on award shows after the disrespect on the fans and the group itself, bffr
Why non exol got no chill to our exo😂 we exol never worried bcs we trust them than anyone else. So u guys better chills and wait for them release new song😊
What fans turned against the members and support SM? Nobody likes SM. We know they are a shady company. The only thing in SM's favor is that they know how to find and cultivate talent. They make good music. Beyond that we know not to trust them. They have been screwing with EXO for many years, they screwed Winwin from WayV out of his groups comeback, they punished Seunghan from Riize after his privacy was violated and the list goes on. These people who were supposedly swayed to SM's side are probably just some random folks on the internet who are not paying attention.
GIRL, what is this ridiculous title? No one is worried. Literally 4 members are holding solo tours with overlapping dates and selling out venues left and right. Name another group with this much popularity and massive loyal fan base with actual buying power. Always believe in Exo members. If Suho says we are getting a winter album we will. If he says soon as Sehun and Kai get out theyll do a group album and world tour, we can expect them to do so. If Baekhyun says they will always be part of Exo, they will always be part of Exo. NEXT!
if I were SM, I would be fuming too right now. When Lay didn't renew his contract, they already lost their money maker in China. Imagine the damage that 1 exo member alone did then next are losing Kyungsoo and CBX. SM made the group EXO and also wants to ruin it from the get go. now we can see SM downfall while the members are killing it on their solo activities. I say, that's EXO karma
I don't want them to disband. I want to see an EXO comeback with 9 full members. I don't care if they part ways with SM, but the contract trap makes it hard them to leave like damn. EXO will be EXO forever!
EXO will continue as a Group and its not a New thing SM has been mistreating them way Before. Their Bond is Strong 💪 and they will continue and still remain as a Group♥️ .
I also support cbx but please don't hate suho. He adores his member and exo'l is everything for him. Please don't hate suho on this matter please support him as a leader , as a soloist, as a singer , as a actor.please❣️❣️
Wow, when SM goes for the jugular, they don’t play. Who will they go after next?Taemin? After all, he went with BPM ultimately. What a shite company, and a behemoth of one at that! Smaller ones don’t have nearly the resources to battle long term against it, which is what SM knows. All they have to do is cry, “MC Mong, MC Mong, MC Mong!” Long enough, and say, “he stole our impressionable artists” (as if they haven’t a brain in their own heads, and can’t look out for their own best interests). Lee Soo Man may as well be at the helm since SM is still and always will be a shark tank.
So. SM/KAKAO persuaded CBX to continue to use SM’s intellectual property for their independent activities, in the name of group unity. Then when CBX chose to do the right thing, SM turned around and use that against CBX. Evil.
The tactics they are using is simple. They have given Suho ample of promotions this time, a tour (a Europe Tour on top of that), doing promotions on youtube so they want everyone to think that they were treating the members correctly and its the members that turned their backs on the company.
Who said we're worried about EXO? Don't put words in our mouth. Just wish all exols don't read this channel, because this channel always talks bad about EXO and tried to drab EXO and members. I am here to be careful of this channel. STOP using any content here about EXO. Go work with ur BTS stan, geez!
I'm pretty sure, they are waiting for Sehun and Kai to finish military duties, so they can all leave that hell of a company together and fight for their Exo name. Suho has said that he didn't aspire to be a SM director anymore, he's fucking fed up with that company and the other are too. If you are an Exo-l you know that after the other 3 members left, we can handle everything.
When did they say they were waiting for Sehun and Kai? if they don't say it don't make assumptions if it doesn't happen you guys will only blame the members. And where did Suho say "he didn't aspire to be sm director"? can you tell me? I don't like SM either but if the members don't say anything don't make too many assumptions.
@@infounik12345 Suho did say that, I think it was during an interview in their last comeback. If you follow exo, you know how fed up they are of SM, so It wouldn't be surprising if they did all leave, and if they didn't no one will blame the members, we know how loyal they are to each other. This fandom and exo have been through hell and back, we will always support the members, no matter what.
@@petravieira2363 last comeback do you mean in 2023? exist era? If you have a link or article where he says this can you give it to me? I'm sorry but I'm very careful about this because people always twist what they say. What I know is that a year ago he only said he would wait for Kai and Sehun for the concert, not to leave SM, that's because fans asked and not only him, other members also said the same thing, so if you can tell me where he said it, I'd be grateful. And if you see that they have extended their new contract to 2022, it will take another 5 or 7 years for the contract to be completed, Sehun and Kai will finish military service in 2025.
And I'm very sure that Suho or other members never said "they will fight to take the rights to the EXO name" in front of the public/media because they know that EXO is a patent owned by SM. If they ever said that openly in they last comeback like you said, do you think SM would stay silent now? Suho is a very careful person. Such narratives are created by some fans with assumptions they make themselves. I follow EXO btw and many fans easily believe random translators on social or they don't know the context so I'm very careful.
@@petravieira2363 And for Suho "didn't aspire to be SM director anymore" like you said I will watch all exo content again a year ago during the comeback maybe I missed something.
i dont mind exo disband as a group,exo is just a brandname lol.What matter for me if they disband,they take all of their own including that alibaba investor and that chinese private investment company along with their new agency..Sm doesnt worth for it,all of their investor come from exo hardwork and their fame not sm..
Exo was my first kpop group, i found them in 2012 on accident and from there i fell in love with kpop music. that group changed my life fr. It would b such a shame to see em disband after all the hits they’ve given us
I know this might be uncalled for but these are young people being killed , please spread what's happening, we need international news to cover this , am scared and i don't know what to do , this is the only way i can try to help my people , we are innocent ,
This is why I refuse to support SM groups - this company is a slave driver. EXO-L are being very selfish and gullible. It is also funny b/c those three members are so valuable, that there is no way EXO can make a comeback without them even if KAI and SEHUN are also MIA. Taemin and Baekhyun are the most beloved SM idols. Both left or actively wanting to leave. Tells you smthng.
@@sadiariaz6183that's not a news lol. Exo fighting for career who? They literally out enjoying concerts, recently members in Yixing concert, thru don't give af knowing their bond and fans are always intact. The video creator is just exaggerating
As a fan, I would say that failure is what they deserve as a group, and apart from a few truly kind members, everyone else lacks conscience, dedication, and numbness.
I mean if lets say if CBX do ended up leaving EXO, i really hope they can continue like TVXQ. What i mean is that TVXQ was originally 5from 2003 - 2009, but in 2009-2010 but 3 of the members filed a lawsuit against SM and left the group. So starting 2011 TVXQ is now a duo group, and still successful. I really hope EXO can continue despite what happens
In this case it's different, EXO has lost 3 members and 4 members indirectly and that's enough, I don't think all EXO fans want that Indeed, TVXQ can still be at the top after their members left, but the members who left had a really hard time not being able to appear anywhere. If that happens to CBX, of course their hard work all this time will be in vain, especially since Chen and Baekhyun are the backbone of EXO because a strong vocal line is EXO's identity. BTW I got to know k-pop when TVXQ released Mirotic, and I like EXO because they have the same vocal quality as TVXQ
TVXQ's impact was diminished after the lawsuit. JYJ were black listed from appearing on any Korean content related to singing except for acting. Max and Uknow are still good but it's evident how much it impact their impact in kpop as public figures. Exo already lost 3 members, 2 of whom had an insane fanbase while the third one was such an asset when it came to choreographies and stages. If CBX are to face the same situation as JYJ and China line of Exo then it would impact Exo massively since both Baekhyun and Chen are not only the main vocalists of Exo (Exo-K + SuperM and Exo-M too) but they're the best vocalists of their generation, whilst Xiumin is such an amazing all-rounder.
I just have to laugh 😂 as if exo didn't go through millionth shits Also EXO is doing great, the lawsuits have nothing to do with their activities. Lay with other members just hang out together days ago.
i'm actually not worried at all, exo have been through a billion lawsuits and a bunch of other nonsense, if the members want to continue together they will manage a way, if they don't want to continue together it's better that they don't.
People are worried about the WRONG THING!!.. EXO is SOLID. People hope for disbandment and thrive on anything negative about EXO, STOP IT. Each one of these 9 men have very firm and sound decision-making abilities. SM as it is, does not deserve them. These men are more than a K-POP Group, they are brothers and will continue as a group.
And then u hear another grp claim victimhood of what a hard time they have had. EXO are most stoic grp you can find. Unbelievably resilient. Waiting for the 3:19 biography, k drama and west end show. Who wants boring when you can have EXO. Especially when they never tell u.
Por favor exo es de los grupos mas fuertes. estos conflictos vienen de años y controversias...otros grupos quizas se hubieran disuelto pero exo son muy unidos a pesar de los conflictos. Tu canal siempre comentas lo mismo ya quisieras tu.
Not even 1 ERI stayed on SM's side since all of this started to happen and we won't EVER. We trust EXO and will always be by their side, no matter how much SM tries to ruin their reputation and career. You need to stop bringing up opinions from akgae and solo stans because they always say things against EXO as a group. What these people say DO NOT stand by the fandom! This channel is a joke, you should stop talking about EXO since you do it just because of how many views you get.
It will never be the end of Exo. Sorry to disappoint the ney sayers. They way too strong mentally and their love for Exo-L is too strong for SM to break. Whether with or without SM, Exo will always remain. Period.
Every Legend stops becoming more , but she is a Eternal Legend , and she keeps becoming more and everything , She is above all : wizards , angels , fairies , etc . She is a Eternal Legendary Dreamcatcher
Hey Kookielit, Can you please make a video about Jimin being mistreated from his label? Please? His label didn't give a proper promotion of his new album Muse and didn't provide the eu ver of his new album Muse.Many K-medias including MBC news and Billboard made articles and news about this situation. One of Geffen's company team deleted all of his sns because he is exposed for sabotaging Jimin intentionally.
You are a BLINK, right? Why are you here in an EXO video talking about a BTS member? Touch grass. Get help. Take your medicine. Stop embarrassing yourself.
I only have listened to LAY ZHANG. He’s an AMAZING ARTIST so, I’m certain the others are as well. The Company needs to submit to their requests for records of financial statements.
