Hahaha, I think Vietnam airport almost collapsed due to their fame~!! Their popularity is awesome~!! Really handsome~!! But there was this lady in front of me that kept looking at me~!!

2. Anti-fans failing to remove Chen from EXO
Once Chen announced his marriage in 2020, some EXO “fans” decided that they were going to turn in Chen’s anti-fans. They also made it their “goal” to get him kicked out of the group.

The petition ended up getting signed by over 5,000 people in four days. However, KBS rejected this petition, as they made it clear that IZ*ONE would be performing on Music Bank.
