EXO-L Voice Their Support For EXO, Trending “Always With EXO”
On June 1, 2023, EXO‘s Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin announced they were suing SM Entertainment to terminate their exclusive contracts.
In their statement, the members detailed that they were not given accounting records about their payouts when requested. Similarly, they shared their long contract renewal periods, which “differs from the standard exclusive contract for pop culture artists notified by the Fair Trade Commission…”
Although the unexpected news shocked netizens, many weren’t surprised that SM Entertainment “doesn’t change” how it manages its artists. Especially when you look at issues in the past, like former EXO members filing lawsuits for similar reasons, or TVXQ’s legal dispute with the company.
Now EXO fans have taken to Twitter to trend “Always With EXO” to show their unwavering support for the group.
say it with me, exols.
Always With Xiumin!
Always With Baekhyun!
Always with Chen!
Always with EXO!— EXO (@exopredict) June 1, 2023
We are one π

I donβt trust SMEnt. I trust EXO and EXO only.

Fans are vocal that they will wait as long as necessary for EXO, preferring that the members prioritize their treatment to the upcoming comeback, which SM Entertainment has reported will still include the “seven members as previously planned.”
EXO-Ls are good at everything, especially when it comes to waiting π
We will always wait for #EXO.
