In February, SM Entertainment announced that with EXO members enlisting in the military, the group will focus on solo and unit activities.
“Besides, since there are members who are about to enlist, from last year, EXO was scheduled to focus on solo and unit activities this year. Expectedly, the members' activities will be announced in turn. In the future, EXO members will continue to conduct various activities as EXO, soloists, units, etc. and work hard to repay fans' affection,” it said, according to Osen.
Last July, sub-unit EXO-SC, composed of Sehun and Chanyeol, released their studio album “1 Billion Views.” In May, Baekhyun released the album "Delight."
