On the May 22 edition of JTBC's 'Ssul Jeon,' the topic of EXO's Kris came up as it is possibly one of the biggest stories going on in K-Pop at the moment.
Heo Ji Woong started the topic with, "We are interested in EXO's Kris and his lawsuit to void his contract." Kang Yong Suk brought up Hangeng's situation with Super Junior, which led Heechul to speak up about the situation.
Heechul said, "This situation is different. In Hangeng's case, Hangeng was only able to go on two broadcasts. Whether it was because he was the only international member, there were many difficult situations hindering Hangeng's activities."
Kim Gu Ra said, "I feel like he also would have been lonely, so I think they recruited about four Chinese members [for EXO]."
Heechul agreed with Kim Gu Ra's thoughts and said, "In the case with Kris's situation, the problem is neglecting the fans' trust. With only a week left before the concert, all movements, choreography, and music have turned on their heads.
EXO has choreography for groups of six, but everything's become upside down. This is discourteous to fans that have been waiting. If you look at it a certain way, you could have predicted this a bit as there were incidents even before this. Even the fans know these parts, such as suddenly disappearing on stage, suddenly not appearing at the company even though he needed to promote, and [not returning to Korea] after going abroad."

THE POWER KIM HEECHUL
To be honest I kinda waiting when this men gonna speak about Kris’s scandal? When SM gonna use their ‘wild card’? and now he speak in Sseol jun, definitely a perfect place to speak about this scandal. I wondering what actually he gonna say since he in the same agencies as Kris. Of course he know thing that public didn’t know, right? Well that not the problem or the main point here. The point here whose side he gonna stand? Did he play ‘safe’ or siding one side? If you ask me, I gonna say he was siding one side. Which side? You also can easily figure out (even without reading that article). But what choice he has right? Even dark horse can be tame.
Back to the point, Heechul words definitely can turn the table. People now look KRIS as the biggest jerk ever. I’m not blaming Heechul here; I just wanna show the ‘power’ of Heechul words. Heechul words make people think again and giving a little bit info about Kris make can make people think Kris as the jerk. This happen because Heechul has an image of ‘truth image in broadcast’. He has an image that just says the truth in the broadcast, that why people tend to believe on what he said. But still he not put all the blame on Kris since he not practically say that what Kris did was wrong its just practically wrong timing. If you ask me how I gonna intemperate it, I will say that he know that Kris will take this kind of action its just a matter of time that become the problem.
As what I said before Heechul is dark horse in SM and also Wild Card to SM. Make him speak definitely can turn the table. What I can see, he definitely on the side of SM but at the same time not looking that he put all the blame in Kris. He also mention that the EXO condition right now not same like SUJU condition (hangeng scandal). Of course it’s not the same but what I wanna pointed out here is the reaction of EXO’s member. I still think they should learn with SUJU how to handle this kind of emotion. Just like I said before, sometime its better you stay quite. You can give comment but make sure it’s not harm yourself back. What I saw here, EXO just harming their own self. The image that they tried very hard to make can be destroying by their immature and careless act.
The conclusions here are Kris take this action at wrong timing and our dark horse finally come to save their kingdom. One more thing what I can saw here is EXO definitely have lack of communication between the member. If Kris already shows their action by not attending to SM and not going back to korea, I think they suppose can “see” it right? Kris already gave a hint that no one care.
