Tensions between EXO members and CBX appear to be spilling into the public eye again.

The alleged conflict stems from the infamous contract dispute between Baekhyun, Chen, and Xiumin with SM Entertainment. CBX attempted to terminate their contracts, citing a lack of payment transparency and unfair terms, while SM accused them of violating agreements and being influenced by outside parties.

After both sides briefly settled, tensions reignited when CBX began handling solo activities independently, leading to legal battles over revenue distribution and contract obligations. Courts ultimately ruled largely in SM’s favor, and since then, EXO has continued group activities without CBX, deepening the divide between the members and their fans.
Fans Slam EXO-CBX After Shocking Expected Outcome Of All 6 Legal Battles With SM Entertainment
During a recent episode of their variety show The Ladder Game, Suho made a comment after D.O. had lost 3 times out of 3, telling him to aim for “12 losses out of 12.”
On the surface, it seemed like a joke about the game. But fans quickly linked it to CBX’s ongoing legal dispute with SM Entertainment, in which Baekhyun, Chen, and Xiumin reportedly lost all legal claims.
The phrase itself has been widely used by anti-CBX fans online, which only added fuel to the backlash. Many believe the wording was too specific to be a coincidence.
I never though he would go this low mocking cbx randomly, like why even say this? d.o had 0 wins while playing ladder 3 times and leader told him to go for 0 wins out of 12, isn’t this outright mocking cbx’s legal battles just like his ot5 fans do? pic.twitter.com/XG9bCcNfp1

The situation has reignited debates among fans, especially given the already strained relationship between CBX and SM-led EXO activities. Some are questioning whether there’s any neutrality left within the group, while others see this as further proof that a full reunion may never happen.
if suho is so comfortable mocking cbx in front of the grp, has the situation been a joke to them all along? also they were laughing at the ot9 comments during that live after sehun’s discharge too, theres no neutral ground here anymore things have been made very explicit by exo

Even if they had serious issues and completely cut ties, that still doesn’t justify this kind of behavior. I mean, you spent 13 years together—your youth, your success, your whole lives were shared. Not even jealousy excuses this. It’s honestly just evil behavior at this point…

With emotions running high on both sides, even small moments like this are now being picked apart, and nothing feels accidental anymore.
