We want to inform you about the direction of EXO’s future activities.
In the future, all eight EXO members will continue activities together as EXO. In addition to presenting new songs and performances, they plan to greet fans unchanged through the EXO fan meeting scheduled for April, as well as through various activities.
In particular, the exclusive contracts with members who renewed their contracts are still in effect, and DO (Doh Kyung Soo), whose exclusive contract has expired, has agreed to participate in EXO activities, and we are continually in discussion about future activities. In the case of Chen (Kim Jong Dae), Baekhyun (Byun Baek Hyun), Xiumin (Kim Min Seok), we have agreed to enable the artists to proceed separately in the case of individual activities under the exclusivity contracts mentioned above.
Just like before, EXO plans to communicate with fans through good music and performances, so please show lots of interest and support for the members’ activities.
The agency will work even harder to support EXO as well as each member’s activities and growth. Thanks.
