EXO's Chen finally breathes his first activity following the backfire of his marriage announcement to pregnant fiancé with EXO-l ACE, wanting him to withdraw from the group.
On the 17th of January, Amoeba Culture posted on their official SNS account a hint that Dynamic Duo, a Korean hip hop duo will be collaborating with someone, though it was not yet revealed.
Later this 20th of January, a music video teaser was released, with a title track, "You" and was published through their official social media accounts. The dynamic duo then brings out the news that Chen has participated in the song, which attracts lots of musicians and fans, domestically and internationally.
The MV showed an older man and a young woman, crossing paths with each other, in a solitude manner, while they wander in several places. At the ending of the video, it was incorporated with a soft R&B melody and instrumental of piano. At the same time, sadness covers the whole place as the two sat down on a train face to face, both lonely, and the pastel rose sky matched with the loneliness.
The music video was taken in Italy, Europe, which has added up and enhance the feelings the song wants to portray.
Meanwhile, this is the reunion collaboration of Chen and Dynamic Duo following their singe track last 2017 called, "Nosedive." The song was loved by many fans, which also won and topped several music charts. Their collaboration even brought them the bacon as the winner for the " Best Collaboration" category last MAMA 2017.

Due to this, amidst the controversy and the physical protest that was happening between SM Entertainment, Chen's agency, and Korean EXO-L ACE, or the VIP members, fans of Dynamic Duo and EXO Global (EXO and Chen's international fans) are very much anticipating the music that was created between the three influential musicians.
"Synergy" of Dynamic Duo and Chen is expected to capture fans and listeners. That built through their past activities, making them have better skills for musicality.
The collaboration song "You" is set to be released on music sites on January 23, 6 p.m.
On the other hand, regarding the issue of kicking out Chen from EXO, the majority of EXO-ls still want Chen to remain in the group. Though EXO-l ACE or other Korean EXO-ls want Chen out from the group, SM Entertainment hasn't released any statement acknowledging this request.
As a part of their protest, EXO-L Ace organized a gathering in from of SM Coex, and it was expected that about 200 would come, though, only 20-30 people only showed up.
Reasons why they were demanding for withdrawal of Chen, is that they felt betrayed, as well as not receiving any formal apology after the backlash of Chen's announcement. Also, an official statement was released saying that Chen has created a disruption and division from the fans and their fandom.
