#DO KYUNGSOO LEFT SM

[aphrodite1288]

Since EXO-L Japan has said that Kyungsoo’s contract with SM has ended but he will continue to participate with EXO, wouldn’t that mean his participation with EXO is by “honor code” or more like SNSD’s situation and not an actual “group contract” situation like SuJu? 🤔

Before it was told by SM that he will be doing Group projects under SM with the members tied by group contract as he himself confirmed he will be still active as an Exo member. This is usually what SM does with their artists who want to leave but still want to remain active in their band. Because you CAN'T still work in a company you resigned from with no legal contract to protect you and for you to get your profits. But apparently they've done an exception with ksoo , it's not the case with other SM artists who left and still promoting in their band. I'm reading now Koreans are saying Ksoo didn't sign a group contract like the one the members signed, but he may have signed an exclusive Group Contract to promote with Exo in Exo group activities but SM won't be controlling him, he's not obliged like the other members!! Because entering a company let alone working in it in massive group projects, is not possible unless you have a certain type of Contract tied up with them, just like how idols from different companies collaborate and work together, they sign special contracts , so there must be some special exclusive contract SM needs to sign with His company SOOSOO for him to still take part in Exo's schedules and comebacks, but what's the status and title and conditions of this contract? still yet to be confirmed.

There are many people blabbering left and right now, I don't wanna spread baseless rumors I will share with you the exact details about his situation when I get the correct Legitimate info.

So just like I said before, don't expect him to be in EVERY schedule of Exo, it would be optional for him.

Anyway Freedom for Ksoo Yeeehaaaaw!! 🎉🥳🎊💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

its missing kaisoo hours..

kaisoo please come home... the kids miss you 😔

[theboytatu]

you're so right about how exo have surpassed the coworkers line long ago! like who wouldn't trauma bond after surviving the horrors (working under sm) lmao. i'd say that sehun and chen are very close, just like kyungsoo and suho are much more closer (or maybe fonder of e/o?) than what they show us on camera (the way they hugged when they saw each other when exo went over minseok's house... sure, maybe they hadn't seen each other in a while, but that was Friendship!). also, seeing you point out that baekhyun and kai aren't that close got me thinking about how a while ago people on twitter were analyzing the superm dynamics and how some stans were saying that since everyone loved bbh kai was "possessive" about him. first of all, what's going on. second of all, that's just his friend so ofc he will gravitate towards him, that's very normal it's not that deep. and last but not least, taemin, his actual best friend, was right there so 😭 sorry if this is super long but finally i'd like to ask how do you feel about suho and chanyeol because personally i could write a book about how insane their development was. oh, to be a fly on the wall when suho said whatever he said to pcy that shattered the almost idolized vision he had of junmy and that lead to chanyeol distancing himself and them being in a love-hate friendship (??) for years like omg. yeah, things calmed down and tao left the group (which was significant) and they grew up and these days they're friends but just. omg.

i was a superm stan before i was an exol so i know those dynamics like the back of my hand lmao. i can bet anything you want that the reason kai and taemin are barely seen interacting in superm is because they decided to tone it down for the cameras so they didn't mess with the dynamic, and focused on the nct guys to make them feel welcomed.

also it's so funny to me how kai is the only one that is visibly fed up when baekhyun bursts into attention whore mode and the neos are eating from the palm of his hand like 😭😭 I know he was so fucking done with baekhyun's ass by the end of promotions. when baek shows up to his room saying they're gonna share you can visibly see kai panic like he's begging for it to be a joke!! these two are just coworkers and I'm pretty sure when kai learned he'd be in the group with baekhyun again he thought about it twice...

[mybiasisexo]

Hi! Hope u had a great day!

Can I just vent for a sec? If u don’t mind?

Okay here it goes… I rly need solo stans to shut. the. fuck. up. Like rly I do. As we know, Baek had his concert (which looked fantastic btw! I’m so proud of him!) and ofc, some of members came to show their support (im sure if Sehun and Jongin weren’t enlisted/busy they’d be there. Same goes for Yixing). However some miserable people wanted to use this ammunition or proof (whatever the fuck they want to call it) that the members don’t like each other, completely over analyzing their actions/words. Tbh, it’s mainly Kyungsoo and Baekhyun stans I see this from. Tho some other solo fandoms have been yapping about too. For some reason, they’ve gotten brave since Ksoo and CBX left sm (ofc I’m happy that they’re out of the shithole that’s sm). Like it’s 20-fucking-24! And yall still don’t believe that they like each other yet? Seriously? They’ve been together for nearly 15 years at this point. And they are FUCKING GROWN ASS ADULTS! If they didn’t like each other or want to be around each other, then they wouldn’t interact at all outside of work. Yet, how many times do we hear stories of ppl running into them while they’re on LITERAL “DATES” WITH EACH OTHER. Stop treating them like they’re in high school ffs! Every time any member is asked about exo during solo activities, they always say how they’re lucky to have them and that they’re family/brothers/lifelong friends.

If you don’t like the group or certain members, fine. That’s how you feel. I can’t change that. But you need to shut your damn mouths and show some respect! As the saying goes: if you have nothing nice to say, then don’t say anything at all. Just remember, any of them members would burn you all alive to keep the others warm. Without a second’s hesitation.

Sorry, damn, I rly needed to get this off my chest. Thanks for listening to my rant lol. 😂

Damn. Yknow I’ve been lucky enough to miss this discourse and I’m glad cause solo stans make me sad bro 😔. I truly can’t understand the concept when it comes to exo. They are one god dammit!!!!

But yeah you’re spitting nothing but facts! Exo have proven years ago that they are more than just coworkers and it’s such a tired argument. If they really didn’t care for each other they would disband. They’re literally staying with sm to remain together like ??? If that don’t prove their loyalty idk what does.

Solo stans can gag bro cause exo ain’t going anywhere and they love each other lmfaoooo like huh???

[jisungshotfirst]

Levanter anon: sounds like SM Entertainment is having a chaotic time once again.

On a more lighthearted note, if you look at the graph of SM stock prices going down, it looks like a cat now. 'Tis the EXO-dus cat!

But jokes aside: what will happen to EXO now? How many group members would be left in the company (assuming the don't also leave after the first group of members)? Where will the leaving members go?

Also, will this affect other SM groups? I am not the most familiar with them, but I hear SM groups are very interconnected, with NCT and Superm and everything. So will other groups have members leaving?

Hello!! they sure are hahahhaha

omg we love<3 jfjfdj exo's legacy :')

So there currently Chanyeol, Sehun, Kai, Kyungsoo, Suho and Lay are still contracted with SM. Chen, Baekhyun, and Minseok are still in exo of the moment - they've left the company not the group and so unless there's official word after all the legal stuff that they've left the group - they are still in the group! the contracts will be them individually contracted as SM artists, not as members of EXO so they don't lose that when the contracts gone until SM declare it. Sehun... is unpredicatable so i can't say anything for sure 😭 but he is basically sitting back atm with popcorn watching it go down so i imagine that whatever the outcome he will step up and try something himself hahah the others i truly don't know! Kai fucked off to the military right as the drama's happening so we won't get his news for a while 😭 the contracts are kinda frozen/extended over military enlistment periods i've noticed so he won't be doing anything until it's over. The leaving members are very likely going to go get signed to other labels/ set up their own ! i can imagine they have a plan, and considering they're suing together at once i can imagine they have a plan together! it would be great for us fans to have them sign to the same company but you gotta remember this is their first free decision about their career they've prob ever gotten so they should go with what they want individually and find companies that will suit them and work well with them<3

oki so I think there's a lot that could happen if u compare it to other groups! they could definitely do a got7 where they are in different companies focusing on solo stuff but manage to do a full-member comeback by organising it themselves between all their companies (if only once or twice </3). Or you could look at snsd. snsd came back through SM but 3 (?) of the members aren't under SM anymore - it was just something arranged between all companies involved and i can imagine that the non-SM girls got well compensated 😭 but yeah - something like that could happen if there's some relationship between the members and SM... which doesn't seem particularly likely considering the lawsuits but anyways it's a possibility hahaha!

about other SM groups! it will be affecting poor taeyong trying to promote his solo atm thru all this drama 😭 and as you said about the stock prices - that does inhibit the other groups. However, if they win the lawsuit, one can only hope that would encourage better artist treatment and fairer payout around the whole company!! and if SM don't do it themselves, the other artists would have tonnes of info on how to beat SM in a lawsuit 😭 so we can hope they use it well<3 but yeah - the icky thing about companies is that although they are all artists with similar contracts, the treatment and payout could be extremely different between all the groups :(( and within the same group (read: luhan and tao lol). and good old misogyny when it comes to rv<3 so each SM artist could have a different experience and some could have it much worse than others.

okay so i just read some articles and it's so funny djfgjjdfgj what i'm understanding is.. cbx were like 'yo can u provide us with the info on how we've been paid for 12-13 years' and sm are like 'no. i don't want to.' and sm are CONVINCED that some other evil company leaders have been talking to exo and getting them to sign with them and illegally go against their SM contracts. which very much could be true but it's not illegal to have discussions with other employers jgjdfg and SM are still like 'we have your best interests at heart, not those evil outsiders!'. ... they r so funny fkgkd. also their contracts were literally 12-13 years long... not the usual 7 recommended by the government.... and the contracts they r terminating were written in nov/dec 2022 and were extending them another 5/6 years...and SM's current defence is "no ur lawyer doesn't know the law properly we aren't in the wrong".. so .... unless some miracle is pulled I don't see SM coming out of this well since they're not rly cooperating at all.

but yeah.. i don't see a swarm of artists leaving SM happening, mostly because a lot of them won't have the luxury as EXO have to do that. And especially if they're also stuck in 13 year contracts... which is ridiculous. so yeah :(( but we can hope they get better treament!! and soz to any superm fans if there are any of you 😭 superm is a done thing i'm afraid</3 lucas flopped, baekhyun's suing and then it'd just be taemin in an Nct unit KJFGKFJGK. so yeah no more superm. but nct will prob truck on - they are SM's priority there's no denying it so they'll prob be fine. tho they are tragically suffering with the loss of sungtaro so like... </3 rip to them but infinite Nct flopped to me the second sungtaro left, like no one else matters</3

[jongbross]

Hii bestie :)

First of all, I really love reading your works, they give me a good feeling and that I’m being loved (even if they’re just fiction). ❤️

Secondly, sorry if it’s not really EXO related.

Please allow me to express my opinion and feelings to you, and forgive me for the next thoughts. So this thing has been on my mind lately… I don’t think idols realise that fans exist outside Asia and the US… and yeah, if I had to be honest, I’d say it kinda saddens me. I’m talking about the idols in general now (don’t get me wrong), and when they say stuff like “I love my fans so much” etc, I feel excluded, because I only see mostly Asian fans getting the chance to go to their concert or a fan meeting, or just simply see them at the airport and giving them presents.

I know that feeling like this is not a behaviour of a true fan, but! aren’t we allowed to feel, let’s say, jealous sometimes? I mean, it passes soon but it can also bring me down and I even feel guilty for not being able to be that fan who supports their idols in that way. Of course, I know how much easier it is to travel to those countries near Korea, but still.. especially, when a group/soloist has been in the industry for a while now, I think they could visit further countries too to give at least a tiny bit of chance to see them live.

If you read it, thank you for your time, you’re the best, girl <33 I love you and keep doing what you do 🥹😘

Also, I wouldn’t mind if you shared your own thoughts tho ;)

i went to the theaters the other day to watch nct's concert, the "nct nation", you know? as i was going back home, i was talking to my sister's friend about the shows we went to, how much fun it was, and how much we wanted to see our favorite groups live (mine being exo, and hers being enhypen).

i told her that i already made my peace with the fact that maybe i'm gonna have to travel to asia to see exo live as a whole group, and that's okay. kpop is gaining more and more attention through the years, and that's amazing of course, i'm happy for that! but still, there are some things that will take more time to change.

i do believe exo cherish every fan and that they wanna go and meet as many of us as they can, but there's almost a gatekeeping with groups in korea, to the extend that some of them (not only exo members but other idols as well) think they're only famous and loved in korea. when nct 127 came to brazil, they were SHOCKED to see that we knew every song, that we screamed for every member and not only for our bias, etc. they did 3 concerts in a row, with very little seats left at the venue. they realized they're big here, you know?

i think exo would be just like that. they already know that places like japan, china, indonesia (and many more) love them, but they didn't have the chance to see that around the world and i partly blame it on sm. but things are changing for them now, baekhyun and kyungsoo have their own companies, so maybe that means we'll have more chances to see them live, who knows? it might take a while (and in exo case i think it will take a while, considering sekai's enlistment, the whole lawsuit that was going on and that definitely left a bitter taste for sm, etc), but eventually the way they see the whole world will change and opportunities will come their way.

so it's okay to feel that way, there is no such thing as "true fan behaviour" in my opinion. just please, know that you are loved and that exo do appreciate you! <3

[flaredpantsagenda]

Hey, again! Sorry it’s been weeks since I messaged you! I meant to reply but I forgot, but I have been looking through music to edit to for you. Do you have any type of edits you specifically like?

Also, I saw your new drawing from last week and its so cute! Love the chaos. I would love to see the comics. Those sound like they’ll be really cool.

My favorite Baek songs are probably Ice Queen, Drown, and Cry for Love. Also, his ballads! I love all of them so much. I think my favorite of those is Is it Me. You?

My favorite looks are definitely from lotto, kokobop, and cream soda era. Wbu?

Ooh I loved Wonder but I think Ordinary Days is definitely my favorite from Expectation. Honestly the whole album was such a vibe. Also, can’t believe he finally left SM!!

Omg you’re a baby-l. How did you like your first full comeback? I bet it was difficult stanning someone and having them go right to the military. I don’t know if I would’ve stayed loyal 💀 But I got into exo in 2016 right around after Lotto. My first comback was for life winter album but my first full comeback was actually kokobop which was honestly the best.

- exol secret santa

Hey!! No worries at all about not messaging, obviously I am also very slow in getting through my inboxes. I hope you've been doing well!

I don't know that I have any specific types of edits I like? I do watch some edits but I guess I don't know as much about different types or the process of making them. If you've already started I'm sure it'll be great!

Great choices all around on Baekhyun songs- I hadn't heard Is It Me but I added it to my morning playlist! My favorites tend to be his poppy ones- Betcha, Privacy, Amusement Park, Take You Home... although Drown and Cry for Love are definitely up there for me also!

And re: looks lotto and kokobop are also definitely top tier for me. I also really adore the fun styling for cbx. and I have a soft spot for the cozy sweater for life looks. I guess everything like 2016-17 era haha

Kyungsoo's album WAS such a vibe. Empathy too. and what a plot twist with his new company good for him!! start the trend of Exos getting out.

I am a baby-L haha. I had so much fun this summer with the comeback. I watched everything like 12 times lol.

Although I don't think I had much of a choice about sticking with them once I found Baekhyun/Exo I was kind of in it haha. But my other fandoms before Kpop were classic rock bands lmao so I'm used to fishing through the archives for content.

Ahh Kokobop what an era to join though I'm so jealous.

And thanks for the nice words about my art 😊 talk soon! <3

[pinkbyun]

It's been a while and a crazy weekend! D.O left SM, Jongdae finally had his wedding ceremony...those pictures are gorgeous!

Anyways, how have you been?

How is there only a little over a month before the gift exchange? Do you have a preference about what gift you would like? Moodboard? Edit? Fic?

Can't wait to hear from you!

-🤫🎅 (is this how I signed off before?)

Hi! I have been doing okay! I hope you have been too :)

Yes, it has been crazy with the exos! So happy for both Kyungsoo and Jongdae!! We also got new music from both Chanyeol and Baekhyun, so that’s been pretty awesome too!

For my gift, I don’t really have a present. Whatever you feel most comfortable doing is fine by me.

[anyamaris]

Haha thank you sm for being so happy for me, really 🥺 the gidle concert is in September so now I have another thing to look forward to. I always have a bittersweet feeling when I hang out with my friend because I get sad when it's over so she said 'I need to keep giving us things to do' lmao she's the best 🥹

Oh I'm definitely being wrecked by everyone left and right. Suho and Minseok look so good ughhh I'm really hoping they show up in my unboxing I'm so excited to open themmmmm

- 🍒

Here are my pulls, I got it today!

I love that you have that to look forward to, it's far enough away to have the anticipation and close enough to get excited about that it's soon!

The sadness of having that when you visit others...Oh I know it so well. My best friend is across the country from me and I only see him maybe once a year. It's always hard to leave too. You're friend is awesome!

I'm excited to see who you get! I got Baekhyun and Kyungsoo so I'm totally happy, but of course I love them all so I'm delighted. Also I got a Nini and I'm so happy!

I can't wait to see your pulls!🤍💜🤍

[namjoohyuk]

I always find your thoughts and opinions interesting so I thought I could ask this. What do you think about exo’s group dynamic and what’s your opinion on all of them ? I hope you don’t mind this ask

omg wow i’m so flattered honestly bc i never think my opinions are interesting so thank you 😭🤍

idk how clear i can be bc my feelings towards exo and their members have changed so much tbh. so i’ve basically been a fan since 2014-2015, and looking back i think their group dynamic was misconstrued. mind you, they were the no. 1 group back then and ouhh, they were hated. being an sm group, along with the exo-m controversies, i think all the shit they had to deal with made them grow closer. they were already friends, but ofc there were certain cliques within the group. but i think they’re much closer now. I think people have this perception of them being co-workers is bc they have other friend groups, can socialize, and are able to produce successful solo work, and kpop fans who love the brotherhood/sisterhood of kpop feel threatened by that. but genuinely i think they all love each other and as much as i am a bitch for saying that exo would be fine if suho and chen left, i feel like they all have a part and fit in the group really well (even tao, lay and luhan). i really love them.

as for the members. let me tell you, i love them now but i hated most of them at one point 😭 i started off as a kai girl and would go to bat for him. most of them would pick on him and say really colourist shit to him, which was sooo shocking to me bc he didn’t look any different from others. baekhyun and chen were no. 1 on my shitlist. i always enjoyed kyungsoo and tao tho. the others, i eventually warmed up to them. suho—i kinda shit on him for not being up to par vocally or dance-wise, but he’s an amazing leader, and really the glue to exo. he was supposed to debut with shinee which is crazy to think. he was meant for exo. xiumin—a king. love him nothing bad to say about him. chen—don’t love him. or his vocals. i try to ignore him lol. i do feel bad for him for getting shitted on for being married and a father tho. baekhyun—best vocalist. kinda arrogant but he’s allowed to be. amazing solo work. it took me awhile to warm up to him but he’s great. his stans are the worst tho. chanyeol—my man!!!!!! love him! he’s super charismatic. can sing, act. i like his raps idc idc. kyungsoo—the best idol turned actor. love him. he minds his business. kai—i can write a whole thinkpiece on kai but truly an it-boy. a real performer. had the best solo debut of exo. a FUNCLE!!!!! sehun—love him too!! really watched him grow up. tho i do think he gets harassed about his sexuality too much. lay—great performer!!! a little arrogant too tho kdkdkfk. tao—i loved him. he was my fave after kai. luhan—i didn’t get to know much about him. terrible solo stuff tho. kris—hope he dies.

hope this answered your question 🤍

[aphrodite1288]

Now that Kyungsoo has left SM, do you think SM will exclude him when there’s a group activity or comeback? I feel like they’d be petty enough to do that (it isn’t like it hasn’t happened many times before and that was when he was still contracted to them plus their relationship must be very tenuous at this point anyway).

What is Kyungsoo's Situation and Future with SM?

So I'll explain something to everybody here, since not everyone knows,

So until now all of the members signed "Group activities" Contract and "Exclusive Solo activities" Contract with SM ,

Except Ksoo! Who didn't sign the Exclusive solo activities Contrat because that would be managed by SooSoo Company. So since he said he still can be in Exo's schedules and activities after his official contract ends in November 3rd, means he signed the "Group Activities contract"! Just like Donghae and Eunhyuk and Kyuhyun from Super Junior.

Whereas Tiffany and SNSD members who left they didn't sign the group contracts so they cannot Use "SNSD" Group Name or their stage names because they're all owned by SM. Which is why Tiffany's stage name was changed to "Tiffany Young" she can't use "Tiffany" to introduce herself because that's SM's credit.

Same thing for Lay/Yixing, this is why he can't use "Exo" or "Lay" anymore so he calls himself "Lay Zhang" or "Zhang Yixing " because he officially left SM with no Group contracts so yes he won't be on Any Exo schedules unless Exo want to and they can make him an exclusive contract for that, which I don't think would happen anytime soon.

So we'll wait until after November 3rd, If Ksoo still introduces himself as "Exo's D.O" or "D.O" then we would know he sighed the group contract and only the Exclusive "Solo activities" contract that was not signed, which means he would be in Exo's Comeback schedules IF HIS SOOSOO COMPANY ALLOWS HIM and it Doesn't Overlap with his Solo Company's schedule, which I'm sure he will manage and solve with Nam Kyungsoo since it's his company as well, so I believe he would organize his schedules so that he won't be absent in Exo's Schedules. But of course we would expect him not to show up in every show or every fan event or every variety show with them. He might miss some !! Because now the SooSoo Company will manage BOTH his Music and Acting Careers.

And I don't think Ksoo would give up his stage name "D.O" or "Exo".

100 Days My Prince - Part 87

Part 87 – Love Shot (Side 4 – 1 Song 4 You)

Fluff

Character:

Baekhyun

Reader

‘I know what song they are going to perform just from the position’

621 words

The performance has started. You and your husband, Byun Baekhyun, enjoy the performances presented by various SM celebrities. You didn’t know when EXO is going to perform, but you patiently wait while watching the other concerts performed by solo artists, duets, and also group work.

The stage goes dark when the artists are changing places. At one time, you notice a few people going to the stage in dark and taking their own position.

“It’s them.” your eyes are wide open when your husband whispers to you, telling you that the silhouette belongs to the EXO members.

“How do you know?” you get curious.

“Love Shot position. They are going to perform Love Shot” he answers casually. “Well, my love…. Your husband has performed this many times, so, of course, I know what song they are going to perform just from the position” he continues.

“Wow…. That’s my husband” you show a thumbs up to him, impressed and feeling proud of him. He looks at you and smiles. “I wonder who is going to replace your part since you are in the military.”

“Want to bet? It’s going to be Kyungsoo. I sing at the beginning of the song and somewhere in the second chorus” your husband places a sudden bet.

“Why him? I’m thinking Chen Oppa though” you think of a different member.

“Kyungsoo and I have a similar voice range, though his voice tends to be slightly lower than mine. But usually, if I am absent, or Kyungsoo absent, we take turns replacing in singing the parts” your husband explains. “What about you? Why Chen though?”

“Because he is in the main vocal part, and he gets most lines though. So, I guess it’s him. If not, Suho Oppa.”

“Nope. I don’t think so. Usually, they will replace with a member who has a similar voice range or similar voice texture first” your husband argues.

“Hahaha, I don’t know. But I think in the second part, I think Sehun Oppa will take your dancing position. You dance at the front for the second chorus, right?” your husband raises his left eyebrow. “Why him?”

“Well, when I see your lines, the song always begins and ends with the main vocal part; you, D.O. Oppa, Chen Oppa, and sometimes Suho and Xiumin Oppa. When the song goes to the middle or to the bridge, the rappers’ part will take place; so, either Chanyeol Oppa, Sehun Oppa, or Kai Oppa. The SKY brothers” you grin. “If Lay Oppa is here, he will go to the second part of the song too.”

“Wow, nice observation. Let’s see how their line goes” your husband compliments you.

As the Love Shot starts, your husband wins the bet. D.O. is the one who replaces your husband’s part. Your mouth opens wide while looking at your husband.

However, you guessed correctly when Sehun takes place at your husband’s dancing position towards the middle of the song.

“Hehehe, nobody wins. So, no bet lost” your husband pinches your left cheek. You giggle at his actions and continue. “It’s okay. I will sing 1 song 4 you since you win the first part of the song.”

As the song reach the end, you and your husband give a big, round applause to them. You cheer their name, one by one, trying to compete with the other fans who scream louder than you. The members change turns with other singers. You sit down and think of something.

“Hmm? Are they only performing one song?” you look at your husband.

“Impossible. Usually, we will be asked to perform about 3-5 songs; as a whole group, solo or sub-units. It’s okay. Let’s keep watching and see what other performances they show later.”

To be continued….

Joining your prayer circle, let's hope not only Chanyeol but all the exos leave as soon as possible 🙏 call me delulu but I think that's why we finally got that Kyungsoo album. I mean it's been sitting in the vault all done and finished, collecting dust since May of last year? 🤔

there's no way all of exo will leave sm - suho won't, kai won't, before the cbx lawsuit i would have bet my life that baekhyun would never leave.. now? who knows but yeah doubtful.

by the looks of it kyungsoo won't leave as long as he gets to do all the acting he wants to, i'm still 50/50 on him. and his album had been collecting dust because sm cannot manage an annual schedule to save their lives plus his own acting gigs probably got in the way until now

chanyeol is the one that has the more to gain and the less to lose if he leaves sm. I think he would only stay for exo but things have deteriorated so fucking fast in that company i don't think a lot of idols that would've stayed if lee sooman was still at the helm will stay now. just this year alone sunny, suju men and a bunch of djs left sm. I think it's a sinking ship at this point

[yemme]

SM stop playing games and give me my D.O. album.  What ever is in the vault I’ll take it.

DID KYUNGSOO REALLY NOT RENEW HIS SM CONTRACT????????

[dtyfp]

Lily masterlist

Lily w/ SuperM

Baekhyun

- “I'm not good with English. So, I always need one of the twins around me so they can answer the questions.”

- EXO are SM legends, and you were so so intimidated to be spoken in the same breath as them, let alone the same group

- “Baekhyunnie oppa, you’re so cute.”

*speaks in tiny* “who, me?”

- Baekhyun is a good leader, despite the teasing he receives, and he’s thankful for Lily because she’s the only reason he knows he’s doing a good job

- Marvels at her English

- “Lily? Do you mean my daughter?”

- constantly says that if he ever has a daughter, he wants her to be like Lily

- He kept saying how excited he was to work with you when you first officially met and promised to get closer to you soon

- Always had been low-key jealous of Xiumin, Kyungsoo, Lay, and Chen for being closer to you

- It's not that you didn't like him, but he was so sociable, kind of like Johnny, so she was a little intimidated and kept her space

- like all her other groups, she naturally babies them all. Baekhyun was pleasantly surprised when she started offering him food and asking if he needed anything. He milks it all shamelessly.

- the care he doesn’t receive in EXO, he gets from Lily now

- *Lily breathes* Baekhyun: wow, amazing, never been done before, immaculate, you’re doing amazing sweetie

- Reminds her a little of Haechan

Kai

- “I’m so grateful to become close with Lily, they call her SM’s princess for a reason, right? Now I know what all the hype is about.”

- She’s heard Jisung talk about Kai and how much he admired his dancing enough to become shy around him when they first officially met

- she knew EXO before and were comfortable with a few, but Kai was someone she was still sort of awkward with

- You were the most comfortable with Kyungsoo, Kai had heard him mention you before and he wondered how the most awkward member (said lovingly) of EXO could befriend her so easily. He gets it now.

- Kai (or the others) never knew about her health problems until they got out into the same group and the issue was suddenly staring him in the face

- she was worried that he’d think she was holding them all back, but instead, Kai simply slowed down for her like it was the most natural thing

- Calls him Jongin behind the camera

- he has two older sisters and always wondered what it would be like to have a younger one, he doesn’t wonder anymore

- he gets a little camera shy when she takes his picture with her Polaroid camera, but over time, he’s become more confident and will happily pose for whatever you want

- they took a little longer to be comfortable and she was a little afraid to overstep so she usually left him alone

- Mark and Taemin helped them get closer, and believe me, they did

- When Kai asks for some help with English, Lily is the first to volunteer her time

- He gets flustered when she calls him “cute”, it’s something she does with NCT and didn't think twice about doing it with SuperM

- Invited you to his niece's birthday once where you got closer to his family (Kai says they like you, especially his niece)

- He got stuck on babysitting duty once and found they were too much for him so he called you over and within 30 minutes, they were asleep

"Are you the baby whisperer?"

- Like Baekhyun, he was surprised at the near maternal way she looked after her members, but doesn’t complain and secretly likes it

- “Suho never makes me food. We should replace him with Lily.”

Taemin

- “We've been close for years now. Lily was the first person who truly helped me and asked for nothing in return. I will never forget her kindness.”

- Since you were close with Yeri, the two of you were known to be close to Jonghyun which extended to Shinee in general

- they’ve been close for years. Maybe not in front of the cameras and everything, but they’re close

- Taemin has always been grateful for the way you helped him after Jonghyun’s passing. He never told you, he doesn’t know why he’s never properly thanked you, maybe he will one day

- sometimes he felt like he has to look after you for Jonghyun, keep an eye on you because that’s what he would have wanted. He felt bad when the opposite happened

- After Jonghyun died, Lily was constantly stopping by his place and making sure he was fed. She would comfort him and make sure she wasn’t alone.

- Taemin has many friends, but he was only ever that vulnerable in front of Lily

- You got a lot closer in SuperM, she made him feel comfortable and his weird feelings of guilt eventually faded

- Taemin is Shinee’s baby so it was kind of weird when he suddenly became the second oldest. But age is just a number and he reassures his place as maknae through her constant doting

- when his members go to the military, Lily invites him to hang out a lot. He usually says no because he’s busy, but appreciates the invitations nonetheless

- Always makes sure you know that you’re doing great, doesn’t let you listen to the outside noise

“Haters going to hate gurl-“ (in a cute accent with an added swish of the wrist)

He doesn’t get to finish before you burst into laughter
