A number of EXO fans held a protest action in front of the SM Entertainment building. They asked that Chanyeol and Chen be removed from the EXO group. Reporting from Allkpop, Friday on May 26, 2023, a number of fans took to the streets and sent trucks to the front of the SM Entertainment building as a form of protest.
The fans wanted SM Entertainment to remove Chanyeol and Chen from the group so that EXO could continue activities with a six-member formation, namely Suho, Xiumin, DO, Baekhyun, Kai, and Sehun. In their protest action, the fans stated the following.
" The fandom of EXO (hereinafter referred to as EXO-L) demanded the departure of Chen (Kim Jong Dae) and Chanyeol (Park Chan Yeol) from the group. This arose from a series of controversies related to their personal lives, which according to EXO-L had a negative impact on their professional image group.
Since January 2020, the fandom has been continuously campaigning for Kim Jong Dae and Park Chan Yeol's departure from EXO. However, SM Entertainment has remained tight-lipped and the two artists have continued to perform under the EXO banner since their return from military service.
There is no doubt that there is negative public opinion towards Kim Jong Dae and Park Chan Yeol, who are maintaining their idol activities after causing controversy over their private lives. " Responding to this, netizens showed mixed reactions. Some netizens think that EXO fans have crossed the line, but there are also netizens who empathize with their behavior.
" The fans are very unhappy, the agency should have listened to them, " said one netizen. " I'm from a different fandom but I understand what they feel, " said another netizen. " Gosh, the fans are this angry, those members should voluntarily withdraw from the group ," another netizen chimed in.
" These fans are too much, " said one netizen. " I think it would be great if they left the fandom instead of making a fuss like this, " said another netizen. Previously, in 2020, Chen announced that he had a non-celebrity girlfriend and would be blessed with children.
This news left a number of fans feeling disappointed. Meanwhile, Chanyeol was also involved in controversy after someone claimed to be his ex-girlfriend and claimed that Chanyeol was in a relationship with 10 other women while he was still dating him. What do you think?
