Even though EXO’s new song and choreography was leaked, it’s not the complete (final) version.

EXO’s company SM Entertainment said on the 10th that “The video was recorded for MBC’s Music Core and the audio is not the complete version. We are currently in the midst of deleting the illegally circulated video and we are trying to find out how it got leaked illegally”.

On the 10th, the MP3 file with the title “EXO – Overdose” has been spread around video site youtube. Even though the song in the file was 3 minute and 25 seconds, (SM) did not verify if it really is ‘Overdose’. This file was then blocked this afternoon from the request of the copyright holders.

Not only that, a video titled ‘EXO Overdose choreography’ was published online. In this video, EXO-K members DO, Kai, Suho, Chanyeol, Sehun and Baekhyun can be seen performing to a song.

SM has requested for an investigation, and will file charges and claim for damages to the persons who published and circulated the video.

SM says, “We will take serious actions against those who have violated copyrights. We are also requesting for caution so that any actions similar to this will not happen again”.
