Earlier, it was reported that EXO‘s D.O. would not be renewing his contract with SM Entertainment. However, SM Entertainment has now denied the claim.

SM Entertainment has released 2 short statements regarding the news report.

“The report is completely false. We will release our official position on the matter soon.” “The report is false. D.O. still has a lot of time left on his contract” — SM Entertainment

The initial report also stated that all of the EXO members renewed their contracts, except for D.O. With SM Entertainment denying D.O. will be leaving the company, it seems like all 9 members of EXO will stay in SM for their second contract.
