NO EXO?? BYE!!
We want the setlist to consider if we should go or no… especially if my girlies only gonna sings 3 songs with no solo stage.
YOU DONT EVEN GIVE TVXQ A COMEBACK THEY DESERVE!!!
so, is this a sign that snsd, shinee, and exo members left sm?
Why there is no SHinee and EXO? They just comeback, and hv a LOT of Fans in Indonesia, so it definitely a lot off fans coming to the concert
For SM Entertainment, please give the complete line up of your artist because we are really looking forward to this SMTOWN concert! Where’s Kangta? BoA? Girl’s Generation members? SHinee? and EXO? Please give us an explanation why they can’t come.
Dear SM! I hope this is not the final line up of the SM artists. We need EXO, Shinee and GG/Taeyeon and Hyoyeon. I know they might have busy schedules but make a plan/way so they can join.
Can u “at least” tell why exo isn’t included in the line up? There are sooo many exo-ls in Indonesia.
