On the 11th and 12th, SM Entertainment celebrated its 30th anniversary with 'SMTOWN Live 2025' concert, drawing significant attention. Many stars under SM Ent. as well as former SM Ent.'s artists attended the concert. However, fans were disappointed, as among other SM Ent.'s representative idol groups, only Suho and Chanyeol from EXO attended.
During the concert, Suho and Chanyeol shed tears while thinking of their fellow members. Addressing this, Do Kyungsooo reassured fans by saying, "EXO is still going strong." He continued, "I believe fans will definitely get to see the full group again. I want to tell fans not to worry. We're about to start preparations for a full-group comeback. You'll be able to see EXO as a full group soon. It might be a bit difficult to happen this year, but I think we'll reunite in the near future. After all, we all have to adjust our individual schedules. But we've been continuously preparing for the comeback."

-I trust Kyungsoo, but not the others... I hope they will still do it even if some members are missing.
-'Soon' but 'not this year'... What does that even mean...? Is this from an old interview?
-Who exactly is considered in the full-group? Also, why didn't D.O. attend the SMTOWN Concert??
-Will Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin also participate??? This is amazing.
-I'm always waiting for EXOㅠㅠㅠㅠ I really want to see them soon.
-What does he mean soon but not this year...?
-It'ts only January, so if it's not gonna happen within this year, it seems like they're still at the talking stage.
-If that one member gets discharged in September, then realistically the comeback would happen in Christmas at earliest (Meaning that it's obvious that the comeback wouldn't happen within this year)
-It's going to be difficult for the comeback to happen within this year... Especially since Sehun will get discharged at the end of this year... It makes sense.
-Sehun will get discharged from the military in September, so I figured they would release an album next yearㅋㅋㅋ At least do a fan concert this winter!
-It seems like they'll only do a fan meeting this year! Please give us an album and concert next yearㅠ
-If they're not seriously preparing for it, it's better not to give fans false hope.
-Did Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin leave the group? Who exactly is included in the 'full group'?
-So it's going to be D.O., Suho, Chanyeol, Sehun, and Kai, right?
-Just hearing that EXO is still going strong is enough for me. It's reassuringㅋㅋㅋ
