Another Homma (fansite master) has decided to close their fan page for EXO's Baekhyun.
On June 10, Homma BGROUND announced through their social media X account, "If fans are really precious, shouldn't you avoid making similar mistakes again? Thank you for all your support all this time."
This incident follows the latest incident involving INB100, the agency of EXO-CBX (Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin) and SM Entertainment. On June 10, INB100 accused SM Entertainment of unfair practices in the EXO-CBX deal and claimed, "SM Entertainment has ignored the terms of the negotiations that were the basis of the agreement and is demanding that INB100 hand over '10% of the revenue from the artists' individual activities."
In response, SM Entertainment refuted by saying INB100 had "tampered" with CBX and the company is unreasonably refusing to pay the 10% royalties, breaking contract terms. INB100 responded by stating the company would "strongly respond by holding SM accountable for defamation and spreading false information."
Many netizens have interpreted the Homma's fan page closure as a response to the latest feud between INB100 and SM Entertainment.
Korean netizens and fans speculated that the Homma had become disappointed with Baekhyun. They commented:
"They were smart dropping out from his fandom."
"What they said is true. If he thought of the fans, he wouldn't have made the same mistake."
"He's been saying he's doing this for fans but it just seems like he's greedy for money."
"They started this lawsuit just because INB100 doesn't want to pay the 10% royalty fee to SM."
"I can't believe BGROUND closed the account."
"They took really good photos. That's disappointing."
"I understand where they're coming from. The fans are the ones who suffer when their artist gets embroiled in a lawsuit. Since the artist can't really promote well during that time."
"I understand why they closed the site."
"They were posting photos even 1 hour before. They must've been so mad."

I still don’t understand this drama. Why are they blaming only Baekhyun if the deal was with SM entertainment?
