Do you guys think EXO can make a "comeback" comeback?
-
Not really
Their individual C fandom stopped bulk buying long ago. Baekhyun fandom dont buy a single copy since 2017, Sehun and Chanyeol fandoms peaked in 2016 I think
Their EXO bar still huge and I'm sure they will deliver, but they will never make up the amount of sales left from their individual fandoms
Their J fandom degraded due to SM poor support of Japan for to reasons that I never really understood
Korean fandom also degraded since Chen's marriadge, that's why they are charting so poorly. Overall k-exol are people approaching or even over their 30s, I don't know if they have stamina to spam EXO at this point
I'm expecting them to have a good debut on Spotify and YouTube because EXO is by far the 3rd gen BG with most casual listeners next to BTS. Maybe they can have a middling good charting in Korea, but I will not bet on this.
Their album sales will be better than Don't Fight The Feeling but I'm not sure if it will be enough to cross 2 million

if they arent getting modelling contracts and discussions about their weight and attitude, they are not in the public eye anymore

They've had a very good run so, while it's possible, they don't need it.
I think because Exo is very good at what they do, people know what to expect and Exo always deliver the required standards and meet expectations, their comebacks are not surprising anymore so, fans will appreciate with lots of love and I don't expect much to change with the exception of them having a bigger fandom than before.

They're definitely crossing 2M in sales.

It doesn't mean they can't do well.

If they were given the same marketing and promo priority as most of the mentioned groups, it could be possible.
If they blitzed TV shows with promo (esp. performance of the right song (FOR ONCE) for Daytime [GMA, Kelly Clarkson], Primetime [SNL, Award shows, singing based game shows like The Voice, American Idol] and Late Night [Tonight Show] and had an associated dance challenge on TikTok. That would be great.
They aren’t a priority for SM though. They could quake the East and West if they still were.
