EXO’s Baekhyun is facing intense backlash after a viral post on Theqoo accused him of being at the center of EXO’s ongoing issues from a scrapped winter comeback to the cancellation of group activities. The post, titled “Baekhyun, Who Ruined EXO and Still Makes Fans Suffer,” quickly spread across Korean communities, drawing divided reactions.
The author bluntly criticized Baekhyun’s role in EXO’s recent struggles, “EXO’s winter album something they themselves hinted at in advance completely fell apart due to the ChenBaekXi press conference and lawsuit, and of course, their comeback was scrapped as well. Because of this, there was no group Season’s Greetings either, and EXO’s fandom endured a painful time.”
The post further accused Baekhyun of ongoing insensitivity, “And yet, Baekhyun who just has to make fans suffer again through Bubble makes you wonder if he even has a conscience.”
Baekhyun’s Bubble Message Sparks Debate
The latest wave of frustration was reignited by Baekhyun’s message on Bubble, where he reacted to SM Entertainment’s announcement of a debut anniversary live broadcast — a group event set to feature Suho, Chanyeol, D.O., and Kai, excluding Chen, Baekhyun, Xiumin, and Sehun (who is currently serving in the military).
Baekhyun wrote, “I’m good at challenges too… I want to do a live as well… Wish I had known in advance… Such a shame.”
While the message seemed harmless to some, many interpreted it as tone-deaf, especially given the context of the legal disputes that many believe caused delays in EXO’s group activities.
Comments on theqoo:
- Isn’t it kind of strange to sue SM because you don’t like them, and then ask why you weren’t invited? You filed a lawsuit saying you didn’t want to be part of it, so why question not being included…?
- Please stop making us feel bitter already… seriously.
- What’s wrong with him?
- This is just way too shameless…
- Did he cut ties with the other members…?? At this point, it really seems like he did.
International Fans Defend Baekhyun Amid Harsh Criticism
Despite the harsh tone of the viral post, international fans have come to Baekhyun’s defense, arguing that he’s being unfairly blamed for a situation involving both artist rights and company negotiations.
Some fans highlighted that Baekhyun’s lawsuit, alongside Chen and Xiumin, stemmed from deeper contractual disputes with SM Entertainment and that holding one member solely responsible for the group’s instability is not only unfair but overly simplistic.
Still, the debate rages on, with Korean and international fans divided over Baekhyun’s recent tone and role in EXO’s uncertain group future.
As the group’s anniversary approaches, and emotions remain raw among EXO-Ls, only time will tell whether Baekhyun’s next steps can help mend the growing rift between him and a portion of the fandom.
