Baekhyun, who has been active as the unit EXO-CBX (Chen, Baekhyun, Xiumin) amid conflict with group EXO, is once again signaling a move to go it alone. Reports indicate he is in discussions for an exclusive contract with G-Dragon's agency, the leader of BIGBANG.
According to JoyNews24 on the 22nd, Baekhyun is currently in discussions for an exclusive contract with Galaxy Corporation, G-Dragon's agency. The media reported, "Negotiations are currently in the adjustment phase, and the final decision on the contract will be confirmed depending on the outcome."
Baekhyun established the independent label INB1000 in 2024 and embarked on a new chapter alongside EXO members and unit EXO-CBX members Chen and Xiumin. During this process, SM Entertainment raised allegations of 'tampering' (pre-contract contact before expiration), leading to conflict. Consequently, the three members of EXO-CBX filed lawsuits against SM Entertainment citing reasons such as 'failure to provide settlement data' and 'unfair contracts,' but they suffered consecutive defeats.
Among these developments, INB1000 was absorbed into Cha Ga-won (Chairman)'s subsidiary One Hundred Label, and EXO-CBX continued their activities. However, recent issues such as One Hundred Label's failure to pay settlement funds have emerged, and it is reported that EXO-CBX also sent a formal notice of contract termination to Cha Ga-won (Chairman).
With rumors of Baekhyun's exclusive contract with Galaxy Corporation surfacing, attention has also turned to the whereabouts of Chen and Xiumin.
Meanwhile, in connection with this matter, multiple attempts were made to contact Galaxy Corporation to verify the facts, but no response has been received.
