EXO leader Suho finds himself in the midst of controversy once again, this time involving members of ChenBaekXi (Chen-Baekhyun-Xiumin).

On June 14th, Suho was set to hold a round of interviews with reporters at his agency to mark the conclusion of the MBN drama 'The Crown Prince Has Disappeared'.

He has been actively promoting his solo mini 3rd album 'Dotted Line (1 to 3)' and recently completed his first solo concert, generating high anticipation for insights from the interview.

However, just hours before the interview, Suho faced unexpected trouble. INB100, the agency representing EXO members Baekhyun, Chen, and Xiumin as part of ChenBaekXi, announced their decision to sue SM Entertainment, EXO's management company.

INB100 stated, "We will file a lawsuit against SM Entertainment for overdue settlement claims. We seek transparency in financial matters as per our contracts and fair treatment under the law. Our aim is to ensure a fair judgment regarding the fairness of SM's exclusive contracts through this legal process."

This isn't the first time Suho's activities have been disrupted by issues involving ChenBaekXi. Last year, during the musical 'Mozart!', Suho tactfully addressed questions about the group's internal conflicts, emphasizing EXO's solidarity and commitment to delivering great music to their fans.

ChenBaekXi's recent actions have raised concerns within SM Entertainment, particularly regarding potential impacts on other EXO members' solo activities. SM responded, "Despite our efforts to accommodate their activities, including confirming terms with INB100, ChenBaekXi continues to misrepresent our cooperation."

Earlier, INB100 alleged that SM failed to fulfill a 5.5% music distribution commission and unfairly demanded 10% of revenues from ChenBaekXi's individual projects while withholding financial details.

In response, SM defended its stance, accusing INB100 of seeking benefits without fulfilling obligations and taking legal action against Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin for contract violations.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
