Suho and Chanyeol of group EXO revealed that they are discussing full group promotions among the members.

Suho and Chanyeol passionately performed the song ‘First Snow’ at the second day of the ‘SMTOWN LIVE 2025’ concert to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the founding of the company held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 12th.

Then, they mentioned their individual solo concerts and explained, “I watched the concert from behind yesterday, and it felt different watching the senior and junior artists on stage. The seniors‘ stage was great, and when the trainees performed ‘Growl’, it felt different.”Suho also said, “There’s one problem. They‘re flawless. Trainees make mistakes and are flawed so fans think they’re cute,“ he said playfully, and ”I thought, ‘SM is the way to go.’ I once again thought how happy I am to be in SM and to be in EXO. I hope you‘re happy as fans of the artists you love,“ surprising everyone by swallowing back tears.

Chanyeol said, ”This is the first time the two of us are showing ourselves as EXO through a concert. Member Kai will be out soon and we’re getting ready to gather again soon for a better stage. We‘re talking about what we’re going to do, so please look forward to it,“ and mentioned the full group stage, explaining, ”Thank you always for loving us.“
