EXO REVERXE Title Track Crown Teaser Sparks Heavy Backlash
EXO's REVERXE comeback faces an unexpected hurdle as the 'Crown' teaser receives heavy criticism from fans over its visual and musical direction.
The highly anticipated return of the 'Kings of K-pop' is off to a rocky start. On January 17, 2026, SM Entertainment released the music video teaser for 'Crown', the lead single from EXO's upcoming album REVERXE. However, instead of the usual praise, the teaser has been met with significant criticism from netizens worldwide.
Why EXO REVERXE Crown Teaser Disappointed Fans
According to reports from Koreaboo, criticism flooded social media platforms shortly after the drop. Fans expressed deep disappointment over the song's perceived lack of impact and what some called 'outdated' visual effects. For a group that's been active for over 14 years, the production quality was expected to be top-tier, yet many claim it fell short of EXO's established standards.
Netizens have been vocal about the creative direction, with some questioning if the agency is properly investing in the group's long-awaited comeback. Comments such as "The visuals feel rushed" and "This isn't the EXO quality we know" have gained thousands of likes, reflecting a rare moment of unified discontent within the EXO-L fandom.
