EXO's instagram
SM Entertainment, the agency representing EXO, confirmed on Friday that the highly anticipated seventh album from the renowned boy band is set to be released on July 10. This marks their first collective album in four years and four months, as individual members had embarked on military service during this period.
While details about the album remain undisclosed, SM Entertainment assured fans that the project is progressing according to schedule, promising to unveil more information in due course.
However, EXO's forthcoming comeback comes at a tumultuous time, as both the band and their agency find themselves embroiled in a legal battle that commenced earlier this month. Three members of EXO—Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin, who also form the subunit EXO-CBX—have alleged that SM Entertainment coerced artists into signing unfair contracts and demanded an immediate termination of their agreements.
In response to these claims, the agency has vehemently refuted the allegations, asserting that the members' perspectives have been influenced by a third party with questionable motives. They label the allegations as baseless and driven by ulterior intentions.
As the legal dispute continues to unfold, fans of EXO eagerly anticipate the release of the group's seventh album, which holds the promise of reuniting all members and reigniting the band's musical prowess. The album launch represents a pivotal moment for EXO, as they aim to overcome their recent challenges and reconnect with their loyal fan base.
