It's like I raised children from birth until they became a full pledged adult. We've been together thru thick and thin, hurdles, issues, happiness, dating, breakups and such. @weareoneEXO
I'll be honest i don't think SME only wants the money, they also want to humiliate and turn CBX into scapegoats so it can serve as a lesson to anyone daring to rise against their management.
Exactly. SM representative said that it is impossible for CBX to continue exo activities after all of the broken trust over these disputes and only retracted their words when cbx team seeked legal review over that article. Why did they edit that out? They knew cbx have been reaching out to them and even subject them to new agreements for the group activities alone which I already told you last night that cbx have already complied and according to cbx new statement, they already conveyed the intention to pay that 10% to sm once the legal proceedings are concluded but what did sm do? They still excluded them in the upcoming cb and fm bc (let's go back to the first sentence) they can't work with them anymore. They could have at least told cbx to their faces that "yeah let's wait for the court proceedings to conclude but at the mean time you're not part of this comeback yet bc we don't trust you yet bc you haven't paid us yet" but no, they literally announced that fm and cb without them and cbx clueless about it.
@enjieLou SM's legal team accidentally told the truth: the goal was always to make CBX's group participation "impossible."
They retracted it because it exposes this not as a contract dispute, but as a deliberate termination of their roles in EXO.
This is a smoking gun.
๐ถ : i also just realized that, "ah, eri really is such a powerful source of strength for me".
๐ถ : lately, i've had a lot on my mind while going through my days.
๐ถ : but meeting Jakarta eris today gave me the energy to keep going again.

Yung tipong resign na resign na ko and demotivated sa work and EXO comeback and concert lang pumipigil sakin tapos bigla nyong sasabihing OT6?? Para san pa yung pagtitiis ko? @weareoneEXO@SMTOWNGLOBAL
He started singing group songs in BKK and eventually sang the most group songs in Taipei. That's between Sept 6 to 21. They had mutual exchange of concrete terms on Sept 10 and entered the negotiation phase. The timeline's aligning.
Baekhyun (2022): โI hope you take courage and say no to what you hate. If itโs something you really hate but you need to maintain the relationship, you might choose to sacrifice yourself, which is not a bad thing to do. But please make sure you donโt get hurt in the process. If you think it will hurt you, I hope you have the courage to say no and say so.โ
late night musings
* Junmyeon said the other day that they are only 20% done with album prep
* Jongdae said yesterday that they are waiting to participate
* Yixing said today that he has already filmed the mv with the 5 others
* you canโt tell me the exos arenโt talking amongst all 9 of themselves in the group chat
* CBX still has cleared schedules for the entirely of fanmeet/album/promotional period
* so did CBX already know they werenโt going to be included, werenโt allowed to mention anything publiclyโฆ but still held out hope forโฆ something? i wish i could figure out what ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ some kind of late, backdoor resolutions etc that would allow them to film/record their parts separately and later be included in the full album? idk and i wish i did. something doesnโt add up
wait. hang on
what if it really does all add up
Junmyeon could be correct; the album is still in early development. Yixing could be correct; the mv is for the pre-release single and has been recorded with only 6 members. Jongdae could be correct; CBX are still waiting - but for the green light for the full album, hence the extended schedule clears
what if SM is testing the waters with the fanmeet and single (both released early) to see how much the fandom can be pacified by finally adding poor yixing into the mix. if the fanmeet sells out (which it will, we cannot control that: thanks kfans ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ) and the single goes well with zero fandom backlash then the full album will be 6. but nothing is set in stone and SM can change the lineup at any time
i think the international fandom have to get loud and messy. fast.
Recent tensions within the fandom have led to misplaced frustration being directed at the members of EXO. We would like to clarify that the ongoing issues stem from SM Entertainmentโs management decisionsโnot from EXO themselves.
Assigning blame to any member only distracts from the real issue and undermines the collective effort we have built. Our shared goal should remain firm: ensuring that SM Entertainment fulfills its obligation to include CBX in all of EXOโs future activities and comebacks.
We urge everyone to refrain from spreading or engaging in baseless accusations and to channel that energy toward supporting EXO as a whole.
