News Chen apologizes over engagement announcement (1 Viewer)

[Abeamus]

"Hello. This is Chen.

After worrying a lot about how I should express my feelings, it’s taken me until now to write to EXO-L.

I’m worried that I might hurt you through poor wording, but I want to first off apologize to everyone who has waited for all that time. I also want to express my apologies to EXO-L who must have been very surprised and taken aback by my sudden news.

When I first wrote that letter, it was my first time too experiencing such a thing, so I worried a lot about what I should say to EXO-L who’ve been together with me. Still, I wrote a letter because I thought that I needed to personally tell all of you first… however, my unintentionally lacking and poor wording caused disappointment and hurt, and seeing you experience that made my heart ache as well.

I don’t know if my feelings will be conveyed well, but I’m sincerely grateful for the love that you’ve given me and I’m more aware than anyone else that I am who I am now because of that love.

I want to apologize again for expressing my apologies to you so late. Also, I will show you how I’m continuing to try hard. Thank you."

he shouldn’t need to apologize for this

he shouldn’t need to apologize for this

He definitely shouldn't and it does seem like the apology is directly from him so the antis successfully made Chen feel bad about being happy

Don't apologise for making me happy Chen. You made a lot of EXO-Ls happy

 

[Bopper]

He shouldn’t have to apologise for making some ‘fans’ (looking at you Lysn app users) unhappy, but what is good is that he isn’t apologising for falling in love and becoming a father. Those who don’t like him now can sling their hooks because the other members have made it clear they’re not happy with those hating Jongdae.

 

[ddeonghwaaa]

He has no reason to say sorry.

chen you dont have to apologize
we support you, your wifeu and your little baby

 

[kinnie]

Hope this made those "fans" feel like shit.

Tbh, I don't think this letter will change mind of those fans. They think dating and especially marrying ruins idol. They want him out of group, apology isn't going to be enough for them.

Wtf is wrong with those unsatisfied k exo-ls. Chen doesn't need to apologise for falling in love , they are seriously acting like he was their fiance or sth

An update from SM (via Soompi)

I adore all of this statement. SM are saying that they are standing by EXO on what THE MEMBERS DISCUSSED, that the three members not currently active would’ve also been involved, and that EXO call bullshit on the ridiculously lame attempts from antis to get Jongdae out.
