EXO Members Walk Off Stage And Pause Recent Fan Meeting Due To Disorderly Crowd

EXO's fans disappointed the group's members when they reportedly refused to be orderly at a recent fan meeting.

A video from a January 31 fan meeting between EXO and their fanclub, EXO-L, showed several EXO members trying to settle down the crowd of excited fans before the members left the stage. Although the members returned to finish the event, the scene was another instance of the EXO fans showing exorbitant adoration towards the SM Entertainment idol group.

The crowd of fans was not able to organize properly during the event, and EXO saw members of the crowd being pushed and even falling over. The fan-uploaded video clips shows EXO's Baekhyun trying to get fans to organize themelves, before fellow member D.O steps in and takes over.

"This is very unfortunate," he begins, and apologizes before explaining that EXO cannot stay if fans won't calm down and make a safe environment. "Safety is very important," he said.

Even hearing his words, as well as Baekhyun's request for them to stop this behavior, the fans in the audience didn't calm down. The MC for the event also addressed the crowd and is heard in the vide asking an audience member if she was alright. "Over there, what happened right now?" he asked. "Did you fall?"

Eventually the group decided to leave the stage, insighting further screaming from the crowd.

EXO's members returned to the stage shortly after, to finish the event.

EXO debuted under SM Entertainment in 2012 and have grown to have one of the largest, fanclubs in Korea. When EXO-L's official fanclub registration opened, there were over 400,000 accounts registered within twenty-four hours.

Even before EXO's fan officially gained a name in 2014, EXO's fans had problems at events. EXO's fans were banned from attending tapings of SBS's weekly music show Inkigayo in 2013, due to disorderly action by some fans. Fans refused to listen to staff members and caused several issues during, before, and after EXO's recordings on the show, including near accidents on the roads nearby.
