They all seemed to be very close to each other.

Dispatch shared pictures of EXO's members (except for Kai) at the Incheon Airport.

On June 8, Dispatch shared photos of the EXO members together as they went to Busan for a personal schedule.

Fans were worried about the group after Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin left SM Entertainment and became EXO-CBX. Seeing all of the members together was a relief for them.

In relaxed white shirts, members D.O. and Sehun looked cool. D.O., who has made a name for himself as an up-and-coming star, showed off his signature good looks, while Sehun talked on the phone in a cool way.

Chanyeol and Suho also wore casual clothes, but even though Suho was wearing a mask, he couldn't hide his amazing looks.

Fans were happy to see that EXO-CBX members were also there. Even though they just filed a case to get out of their contract with SM Entertainment, the members didn't let that stop them from hanging out with each other.

Most people on the Internet were happy to see the members together. Many fans couldn't help but get excited about what the group might have in store for their fans.

"Do Kyung Soo (D.O.) is pretty as hell."
"I can't help but look at Chanyeol, who's smiling like he has nothing to worry about."
"Are they going to make a video for a song?"

"The members look like they get along well."
"D.O. is good-looking. Suho's face isn't shown here, but he's also pretty."
"D.O. is as handsome as AF."
"The support truck should have been sent to the airport by the fans."
"Suho is good-looking AF."
"This is weird to me."
EXO-CBX, on the other hand, just ended their deal with SM Entertainment. Since then, SM Entertainment has said that they will give the idols the accounting papers they asked for in order to stop the idols and fans from being upset.

The new OTT series Newtopia has faced mixed reactions, with BLACKPINK’s Jisoo's acting and a slow storyline making viewers question if the show can survive.

Released on the 7th, Newtopia on Coupang Play promised to offer something fresh in the K-zombie genre. The drama follows an unlikely couple, Lee Jae-yoon (played by Park Jung Min), a late-blooming soldier, and his girlfriend Kang Young-joo (Jisoo), as they fight to survive in a zombie-infested Seoul.

The mix of zombies and romantic comedy sounded like an interesting twist, but the show hasn’t exactly hit the mark.

Jisoo’s second lead role after Snowdrop in 2021 was highly anticipated. But many fans and critics have been concerned about her acting, especially after she received some backlash for her unclear pronunciation and awkward expressions in her previous project.

Director Yoon Sung-hyun, aware of the concerns, said at the press preview, “Since Jisoo hadn’t acted for a long time after her last project, I was also initially worried, thinking, ‘Will she be okay?’ But Jisoo dedicated herself, doing script readings four days a week. She worked hard, and as a result, I had no doubts or difficulties. By episode 8, you'll feel that only Jisoo could have portrayed Young-joo. She did an amazing job.”

Despite his words of praise, Jisoo’s performance still left fans worried. While she showed some improvement, her portrayal of Young-joo seemed inconsistent, lacking the calmness expected from the character. However, her "girl crush" image, with her background as a "campus goddess," did add some intrigue to her role.

The main issue, however, wasn’t just Jisoo's acting. Newtopia also struggled with its pacing. While other recent hits like Trauma Center or Trigger grab attention right from the start, Newtopia spent too much time in the first episode on Jae-yoon’s military life and Young-joo’s personal struggles, making it feel like a waste of time. The show failed to showcase the humor and zombie elements it promised, leaving many viewers unimpressed.

On top of that, some characters came off as annoying, like Jae-yoon’s colleague, Line Ho (Im Seong Jae), and the "unlikable" senior character Seojin-wook (played by Kang Young Seok). Even Park Jung-min didn’t do much to help the show move along, making the 57-minute episode feel even longer.

Thankfully, the show picked up pace in episode 2, finally diving into the zombie chaos. But will that be enough to save Newtopia? With the first episode still fresh in fans’ minds, the jury’s still out on whether this K-zombie drama can find its footing and deliver the thrills viewers are hoping for.

The remaining six episodes of Newtopia will air every Friday at 8 PM, with one episode released per week. Stay tuned to see if the series can bounce back!
