The red guy in obsession is suho the leader,the orange hair in lotto is chanyeol the 6”1 guy , the other rapper guy who caught your attention the most is sehun who have a strong eyebrows....exo’s discography is one of the best discographies not just in kpop but in general for me..their b-sides are just top tier so I can’t wait for you to start listen to their albums.also thank you for listening to them I appreciate it ❤️❤️
The rapper that you like is Sehun. He's the maknae. The other rapper with the abs is Chanyeol. They have a sub-unit, EXO-SC (S=ehun, C=Chanyeol). You should check them out. They have 2 albums.
The one in obsession the rap part chanyeol and in lotto the Orange hair chanyeol and Monster Red hair chanyeol and tempo the one with Black hair and in love shot the one with the abs out Was chanyeol yep
the reason you didn't really see much of Lay is because he hasn't really been active in EXO since he is a really famous artist in china. There's political problems between Korea ans Chin so SM kinda give him small parts and small appearences in the music videos but not too much. You will definitely see more of him in their older realeases tho
yeah but also he usually doesn't get lines or screentime on the korean versions :(. ( dftf was a pretty fair line distribution tho and I hope that by the time they're all back together that happens again)
Lay hasn't actively been in the EXO comebacks due to political issues between China and Korea. As he is an ambassador for China he can't actively promote with them so you won't see him or hear him much in their stuff from the past few years. You do see him more in the Chinese MV version for Tempo and he is in the MV for don't fight the feeling by them. He's mostly just promoting as a solo artist at the moment.
HHAHHA i never heard so many "he's so fine" before in your videos but i agree at this point they could all be visual in EXO all of them are SO FINE But girl we told you, at least for me, Exo is ELITE they're so good I can't put words on how good I think they are, all of them and if you want to see more of suho's abs I would recommend reacting to his "been through" live performances, absolutely amazing
Final comment, I promise!! You mentioned in a different video that you love R&B, and that is primarily what you listen to outside of K-pop. I just wanted to let you know that EXO's default/specialty genre is R&B. There is ALWAYS at least one R&B banger on every one of their albums, and their vocals just make them so NIIIIIIIICE. So I think this group is going to be a good fit for you. Hot men, GROWN men, elite skills and talents, live performance KINGS, and R&B specialists.
^THIS, I remember her sayin that and I immediately thought "she has GOT to get into EXO" cuz listen-----One and Only, Ooh La La La, Butterfly Effect, Baby Don't Cry, Walk on Memories, 24/7, and moar?? come on somebody!
From a decade long EXO-L, I promise you, stanning this group will not leave you disappointed. They never did that to me. That's why I'm still here. From group music, to concerts, to variety shows, to their solos, it's just incredible. I'd do it again in the next life if I can. Stanning EXO is one of the best things I've ever done.
What you saw in the "Obsession" MV was that EXO's doppelgangers were actually their alter ego clones and they were using their superpowers, such as Chanyeol with his fire power, Sehun uses his wind power to deflect the arrows, Baekhyun uses his power of light as a saber in the fencing battle, and Suho (the one with red hair) controls water in the room with all the pictures of water, etc. to fight their other selves. You see the planet on fire in the end of the MV because it's supposed to show how the world is coming to an end as EXO (the good guys in all black) and X-EXO (the evil ones in the colorful outfits with crazy hair and makeup) battle for control, etc. (Each of the members are playing 2 different characters -- there are only 6 people in this MV.) X-EXO has been created by the evil Red Force and EXO and X-EXO are fighting each other. EXO are trying to prevent X-EXO from taking over and corrupting humanity and X-EXO are trying to stop EXO from finding the Tree of Life and putting the two halves back together and restoring peace, etc. If you want to understand EXO's MVs then you need to know that EXO debuted in 2012. "Mama" is EXO's debut song and MV and it is how EXO was introduced to the world and it explains the group's concept -- and since then, everything SM does branches off from that storyline. From day one, EXO's concept is that they are aliens from planet Exo and they came to Earth with superpowers to protect the Tree of Life from the Red Forces. Each of the members has a superpower that is unique to them and almost every MV will have at least one, if not all of them, using their powers. Now you also need to be aware that In the beginning there was 12 members and they were split up into 2 groups EXO-K and EXO-M. EXO-K sang and performed their songs in Korean and EXO-M sang and performed those same songs in Mandarin Chinese. EXO-K had 6 Korean members and EXO-M had 4 Chinese members and 2 Korean members. So to really understand their full origin story you have to watch both the K and the M version of "Mama", because the EXO-K version focuses on the K members and their powers and the EXO-M version focuses on the M members and their powers. However, since then, 3 of the 4 Chinese members have left the group (short answer to focus on their solo work back in China) but there is still one Chinese member left, Lay. (Any performances or MVs you watch that took place prior to May 2014 you will see all 12 members.) However, now -- because they no longer have enough Chinese members -- they no longer do separate promotions, but they still produce almost all of their MVs and main songs in both Korean and Mandarin they just now promote all as one big group as EXO with 9 members. However, in the "Obsession" MV there are only 6 members -- Suho, Baekhyun, Chen, Chanyeol, Kai and Sehun -- because 2 of the members -- D.O. and Xiumin -- are on hiatus during this comeback as they serve in the military; and due to the political issues between the Korean and Chinese government, Lay -- their Chinese member -- was unable to participate in activities with the group. So each new MV or project from EXO tells another part of the story, and over the years we fans have started to create a timeline and idea of what we think each part of the story is telling us. However, the introduction of "Obsession's" part of the story really threw all of our theories for a loop and it has made us question everything we have ever thought was happening in EXO's storyline. The MV starts out with the red and blue light because it's supposed to represent how EXO are currently battling with X-EXO and the Red Force for control. In EXO's MVs when you see red light or anything that is red, this represents the Red Force, and when you see blue light or anything that is blue, this is thought to represent EXO. Therefore, when you see red and blue in one scene or purple -- red and blue mixed together make purple -- this is showing how the line between the two sides is being blurred and they are fighting each other, etc. Since "Obsession" some think maybe EXO has been trapped somewhere from the very beginning and it has been X-EXO that we have been following all along. But I think it's still even more complex than that. I think at times we have been watching EXO and at times we have been watching X-EXO -- with the release of "Obsession" we have only just discovering that the story hasn't necessarily been showing EXO the whole time. With the new information provided to us through "Obsession," it also makes me question how Lay fits within the X-EXO/EXO storyline. Maybe he is one of the members who has been able to break free or avoid the Red Forces' control. In Lay's solo MV for "Sheep," the Allen Walker relift version, we see everything burning outside as if an apocalypse is happening. Maybe "Sheep" is showing us the planet burning from Lay's viewpoint, like we see the world burning at the end of the "Obsession" MV. Also, I believe that the storyline in "Obsession" is connected to SuperM's debut "Jopping" MV storyline. If you pay attention to what Baekhyun and Kai were wearing in "Obsession," those outfits are very similar to the black outfits that Baekhyun and Kai are wearing in the "Jopping" MV. Kai is even wearing the same backpack parachute in both MVs. Which seems to be SM Entertainment's way of making sure we see the connection between those MVs. So it is thought that, as part of SuperM's storyline, EXO has gathered the best of the best of SM's groups -- EXO, Taemin/SHINee, NCT/WayV -- to help them battle the Red Force and maybe eventually take down X-EXO. Just like the Marvel Avengers come together as individual superheroes with their own storylines to create the Avengers and to fight evil, it is thought that SuperM is coming together to create the ultimate supergroup to help EXO fight the evil and corruption inflicted on humanity by the Red Force. Unfortunately, to make it even more difficult to understand, each part of the story is not necessarily in chronological order, so we as EXO-L (EXO fans) have to become detectives and analyze every aspect of all of their teasers, MVs, song lyrics, albums, concert VCRs, choreography and even live performances and piece it all together to understand the story behind it all. And not only are EXO's and SuperM's MVs and storylines connected, but pretty much all of SM's groups have storylines and concepts that connect together, which is designed to become part of one giant graphic novel or movie in the SM Culture Universe. To help you pinpoint the powers being used in EXO's MVs and live performances, here is a list of the members and what their special power is. EXO-K 💦 Suho (Kim JunMyeon) is the leader of the group and he is a lead vocalist -- his power is the ability to control water (Fun fact: Suho in Korean means guardian, as in the guardian of EXO. That's why as the leader of EXO, his stage name is Suho.) 💡Baekhyun is a main vocalist and his superpower is the ability to control light 🔥Chanyeol is the main rapper and lead vocalist -- his power is the ability to control fire and his spirit animal is the phoenix. 🌏D.O. (Do KyungSoo) is a main vocalist and his power is the ability to control earth (dirt) which gives him strength/force ☄Kai (Kim JongIn) is a main dancer, lead vocalist and sub-rapper and his power is teleportation (Kai means opening as in a door or gateway, so his stage name is meant to symbolize his role in the group.) 🌪Sehun is the youngest member of the group and he is a lead rapper, lead dancer and a vocalist -- his power is the ability to control wind EXO-M ❄Xiumin (Kim MinSeok) is the oldest member of the group and he is a lead vocalist and lead rapper and his power is the ability to control snow/ice (frost) 🦄 Lay (Zhang Yixing) is the Chinese member of the group, he is a main dancer, lead vocalist and rapper -- his power is the ability to heal anything. 🌩 Chen (Kim JongDae) is a main vocalist and his power is the ability to control thunder/lightning/electricity (As you can see, Xiumin and Chen were given stage names that sounded more Chinese so they would fit in better in EXO-M because they are the Korean members of the Chinese group) The Chinese members who are no longer part of the group, but are still an important part of EXO's storyline: 🐉 Kris was the leader of EXO-M he was a main rapper and vocalist -- his power was the ability to fly and his spirit animal was a dragon (Kris left the group in April 2014.) 💭 Luhan was a main vocalist and his power was telekinesis (The ability to control things with his mind) (Luhan left the group in October 2014.) ⏰Tao (Z.Tao) was a lead rapper and vocalist and the martial artist of the group, so he did the flips and stunts in the group's routines. His power was the ability to control time (Tao ended activities with EXO in August 2015.)
OMG this was is great, I hope it doesn't make her brain spin......its a lot to take in all at once and this is only the tip of the backstory/concept iceberg lol. So so so so so much to see and react to. Even the teasers we get hold information that may help us figure out the storyline. Even their very first teasers. Seriously, it is one of the main things that keeps you drawn into EXO, not just their powerful dancing, unbelievable vocals and hip hoppin rap lines. LIterally EVERYTHING they do pulls you in and keeps you coming back for more.
In Lotto the orange hair guy you asked about is Chanyeol, the rapper/tallest member at 6'1 The guy who caught your eye in Tempo was the maknae Sehun 6'0. Your 2 rappers in Love Shot is yes Chanyeol and Sehun (your fav) Sehun again is the youngest and so handsome.
I’m 100% convinced Editing Mia and reactor Mia are two completely different people because how the HELL did you listen to Tempo and not IMMEDIATELY know what it was about 😭 AND YOU LITERALLY MENTIONED THE BED CREAKING IM SCREAMING AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA
Baekhyun frustrated me the most when I first got into EXO because his looks changed SO drastically each MV. I kept yelling, “who tf is that?!” At the time his solo career wasn’t really a thing so yeah. Kokobop & Monster Baekhyun made my brain explode
Really?I felt that Baekhyun had the most consistent features. I didn't really struggle bc I feel like their faces are so distinct but I kept forgetting Suho at the beginning. Now I be searching for him in every video
@@woolous6127 at first my sister set me up bc she showed me the iconic love shot performance and I said I liked the one with the intense/dark eyebrows and she told me that was D.O🤦🏾♀So for a while I thought Sehun was D.O and the other way around
You complimenting Xiumin with “He’s so pretty!!” made me so happy. He’s my ultimate kpop bias ever and it melts my heart whenever he receives compliments especially from non-EXO-Ls or those who are just beginning to get to know EXO. 🥺💛 I enjoyed this video so much, thanks for loving our boys. 🥰
EXO are all all rounders like literally they are actors,models,musicians everything Ex.Chanyeol one of the main rappers can rap,sing,play guitar,piano,drums,bass,can Dj and is also a producer and songwriter by the name Loey
😭😭😭 rapper man’s name (the one with the strong eyebrows) is Sehun and the other one is Chanyeol and I think you’ll be happy to know that they have a sub-unit: EXO-SC 🔥🔥 can’t wait to see more EXO on your channel!! they’re the only group i stan for now but i’m discovering so many amazing groups thanks to your reactions 💕 i already know you’ll get the best recommendations from other exo-ls, the only thing i’ll say is that you HAVE to watch their live performances, especially this one: White Noise + Thunder + Playboy + Artificial Love ua-cam.com/video/qi6vqNaEe14/v-deo.html ALSO!! they have some amazing individual guides (by Cesar Oh) and I recommend watching those to learn more about the members, even if you don’t react to them you could still watch them on your own because they’re very helpful and informative :)
POPULARITY AND LEGNDARITY ARE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS. Popularity is there today, tomorrow it is gone, and LEGENDARITY IS WITH YOU FOREVER. EXO songs released in 2012 in their debut album are relevant to this day. EVERY EXO ALBUM IS A VISION OF ART THAT YOU CAN LISTEN TO ENDLESSLY. EXO MUSIC IS TIMELESS. EXO ARE RELEVANT EVEN AFTER 10 YEARS OF CAREER.
My rapper man #1: 6'1" main rapper, back-bend-wonder at the start of Obsession, Blue eyes in Tempo = Chanyeol My rapper man #2: "One who keeps coming to the front", shot arrows in Obsession, main dancer along with Kai, @38:37) = maknae Sehun
Do Kyungsoo is just incredible in every sense. He is one of the few vocalists who can make your heart flutter and cause a storm of emotions. He manages his deep voice and sweet timbre with such ease that the same part can sound completely different "starting very roughly and ending unrealistically gently". Kyungsoo's unique voice gives each song a unique charm. I'm ready to listen to his voice as much as I want.! Even when Kyungsoo just speaks, he wants to listen and listen to endlessly, such a pleasant voice. PLEASE REACTION TO: D.O SOLO ALBUM "EMPATHY". D.O OST "CRYING OUT". D.O OST "DON'T WORRY". D.O MV "ROSE". D.O MV "THAT'S OKAY". D.O MV "TELL ME WHAT IS LOVE". D.O AND CHEN "WERE THE TIME". D.O AND RYEWOOK "MISSING YOU". D.O, SUHO, BAEKHYUN PERFORMANCE "MY ANSWER". D.O AND CHANYEOL "FOR LIFE". D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "YOURSELF". D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "BOYFRIEND". D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "BILLIONAIRE".
The one singing with the deep voice in Lotto's last chorus is Chanyeol. He isn't just an amazing rapper, but also an amazing singer, you should check out a video there is called "EXO VOCAL KINGS" because it shows you how all of them in the group are AMAZING singers
if exo calling you ‘baby’ is your thing, then ‘call me baby’ is a must. it’s got the most iconic ‘baby girl’. an easy way to differentiate the rappers at first is chanyeol has the ears and sehun has the brows. chanyeol’s voice is a lot more gravelly and husky compared to sehun’s as well. in earlier videos, chanyeol won’t be dancing at the front anywhere near as much as sehun who’s a dancer.
My absolute favorite group...i hope you watch more of their songs..they are great live! They have some insanely sexy live performances! The two rappers are Chenyeol and Sehun (the mackne)
Sehun is so fine🥵 and he is a little brat, always the cool unbothered guy but very funny (him and Chanyeol have such a dry humour esp together) and weird lol
Lay, hasn't been able to actively participate with EXO since 2016. Lotto was his last MV with them, prior to his participation on their most recent comeback/special album "Don't Fight The Feeling". This album is solid gold, by the way, you really will want to give it a listen (title track and MV + 4 B-sides). You will see Lay in their earlier videos, somewhat, but SM always did him dirty and he was never really given his fair share of lines or center time. Much like my boy Sehun. He wasn't able to participate due to tensions between China and South Korea. China didn't like Lay working for and making money for a South Korean company, rather than for this motherland.
10:33 The boy in front is Oh Sehun 11:38 The man in red suit is Kim Jongdae (Chen) 12:27 The man in red suit and red hair is Our leader Suho 14:10 It's Suho Ohk so in red suit there were two... One is Chen and another is Suho as you know In yellow there was Kai and sehun.. yk Kai so that means you're saying about Sehun 18:28 It's Chanyeol in orange hair 20:41 This deep voice's owner is none other than Chanyeol (orange hair one) 24:17 he doesn't looks like xiumin.. cause he's Xiumin 24:25 It's Sehun 25:43 Don't be shocked I was more shocked when I read the meanings 26:46 He's Chanyeol 26:48 It's Sehun.. 27:58 It's Sehun 33:01 Chanyeol 🥱 33:06 Sehun 😴 38:30 He is...
The song is called "Tempo" and the album is named Don't Mess Up My Tempo, so, the tempo keeps speeding up and slowing down. I think the change in tempo is also supposed to mirror the uncertainty and unsteadiness that EXO are feeling within the storyline in the MV. However, if you read the lyrics, you see that the song is talking to a girl and they are telling her, "Don't mess up my tempo." And yes, part of the tempo in the song is created by the squeak of what is thought to be bed springs. However, as with everything EXO does, there are duel meanings depending on how deeply you want to interpret the song and MV. On the surface the song and MV is meant to be enjoyed by the casual watcher and listener like you would any song on the radio, but if you want to delve in deeper and explore EXO's storyline, then there is so much more going on. As an SM Entertainment group, it shouldn't be a surprise that EXO are amazing vocalists -- hence the a capella part in the song. That is just what SM is known for. You can't be an SM artist without having amazing vocals and dance skills. That's just a fact about the type of people SM selects to become part of its company. All of SM's artists were first chosen for their visuals, vocals and/or dance skills, and even the rappers get intense training as vocalists. That is why SM is known as the vocal powerhouse of the industry. And EXO is a perfect example of that. The aesthetic of the "Tempo" MV is centered around the color red because the setting is supposed to be depicting the members under the Red Forces' control. Without going into too much detail -- there is so much going on in EXO's "Tempo" MV that it's hard to grasp it all -- what fan theories think is happening in "Tempo" is it is showing the members of EXO all trapped in separate dimensions. Each of those rooms, could possibly be a different dimension and that is why you see the glitches and why you hear Xiumin and Baekhyun with that computerized voice, because they aren't all in the same place at the same time, so their voices are being distorted as they try to connect between dimensions, etc. They also still could be trapped in different rooms within the maze, like what we saw them in their "Overdose" MV. For several of EXO's MVs we believe they are still trapped within the maze and they are continuously trying to find their way out. The maze seems to affect their connection to their powers and it clouds their minds and dulls their senses, so not only are they fighting the Red Force and X-EXO, but they are also struggling to break free from the fog the Red Force has them in. That's why you see some of the members just lazily sitting around and kind of blankly staring off into space at times. Baekhyun is the one that is singled out in the MV and he is the one standing above everything looking down, so this is one example of where we think that maybe he is the only one who has avoided the Red Force's control and he is observing everything that is going on from the outside. You see Chanyeol being interrogated by Chen with the inkblot test and that is thought to be the members trying to figure out who are the real EXO members and who are the evil X-EXO members created by the Red Force -- or who are the real members and who are the clones. At this point everyone is suspicious of each other and no one can be trusted. As you may have noticed, halfway through the MV Chanyeol's eyes and hair change color, so some think that this is either showing two different versions of Chanyeol who appear in two different time periods or dimensions, or one is Chanyeol the EXO member and one is Chanyeol the X-EXO clone. Often, when you see a character in one of SM's MVs with blue eyes or different eye colors this usually means they are not who they appear to be. The "Chess game" is thought to be supernatural EXO chess, and I don't think it's a game they are playing, but I think maybe it's something they are using to try to decipher a clue or figure out a way out of wherever the Red Force has them trapped at the moment. It's unclear right now what that scene is really telling us, but I have a feeling things will become clearer in the future as more of EXO's storyline is unveiled in future MVs and as SM's SM Culture Universe storyline continues to evolve. You also see Sehun on the motorcycle in this MV, which I now think is connected to the scene where we see him driving a motorcycle in EXO's "Lightsaber" MV and sitting on the motorcycle in their new "Don't Fight the Feeling" MV. In the very last scene, that is Baekhyun with that cube. I am not sure what that means, but I am sure it's foreshadowing something to come in the future with EXO's storyline. EXO's Chinese member, Lay, is in this MV, but you won't see or hear him sing or dance because you watched the Korean version, and at this time, because of the political issues between China and Korea, the Chinese government only gave him permission to appear in the Korean version of "Tempo", but he wasn't allowed to participate in the song. If you want to hear Lay sing you will have to watch the Mandarin version. Nothing in this MV is random or done just because, even the smallest of detail has been planned out to either connect to something to do with EXO's storyline from past MVs or it will become a key part to help explain something in one of their future MVs.
Girl out here leaving Monster for last. Monster is like THE most iconic choreography in the industry. Practically every active idol group has covered this song (and if not Monster, they’ve covered Growl. But they’ve probably covered both), that first chorus with the X formation is like the MOST covered piece of choreography in kpop.
11:38 that's Jongdae known as Chen. 10:34 that's Sehun, and your other rapper man. 12:27 and 14: 09 the leader of the group, Suho. 18:30 is Chanyeol, and 20:41 is his voice. 20:21 yeah that's Lay. 24:26 is the youngest, Sehun.
Welcome to the exo wormhole. I first didn't want to Stan them at the time I first got into kpop cause I thought they were overrated, but I'm glad I proved myself wrong. Now they are part of my top 5 including Nct and got7. They have if not the best, one of the best b-sides in kpop. Btw, I love your Libra necklace 😉
Yup, Lotto Baekhyun is something else. It's one of the main reason why he's my bias.. Note: You absolutely fall for our rap line, Chanyeol the orange hair in Lotto and our maknae, Sehun the eyebrows. Lucky for you, they form a subunit EXO-SC that have 2 albums..
Yes they have a story like ateez, and exo is the first group who started to have a storyline concept, their storyline dates back to pre debut too. They are aliens who is trying to save the tree of life. I can't explain everything their story line is huge (there's a rumor sooman has a entire book about it)
20:40 The deep voice rapper is Chanyeol, love his tone too! Edit: the other rapper is Sehun, you confuse them a few times but he also seemed to catch your eye!
EXO always delivers, they literally are the definition of a group with "no skip" albums. Their b-sides are incredible. I highly recommend their live performances, like their acoustic melody, "White Noise + Thunder + PLAYBOY + Artificial Love" performance, and "MAMA + Monster + Wolf" performance from their previous concerts. They will blow your mind! Looking forward to more EXO content!
Fan theories believe that "Lotto" is the prequel to "Monster." "Monster" is from EXO's EX'Act album and "Lotto" is from their EX'Act repackaged album, which came out a few weeks after "Monster" in 2016. So, to understand the story in "Lotto" and "Monster" you have to connect the two storylines. How I interpret things is that the story starts in "Lotto" as EXO goes undercover and works to take down the gambling ring, which is thought to probably be run by the Red Force, and now that we know about EXO's clones, from their "Obsession" storyline, maybe even X-EXO are involved. Fun fact: Kai -- EXO-K's main dancer -- isn't dancing in the "Lotto" MV. As you saw, Lay -- EXO-M's main dancer -- and Sehun -- EXO-K's other main dancer -- are the dancers highlighted in "Lotto." Kai was injured during this time and couldn't dance, which is why you see him sitting down in the MV. In live performances at this time, Kai is absent when Lay is part of the performance because he is still recovering. However, when Kai is back performing the song, Lay was absent because he was busy doing solo activities in China. If you watch any live TV network performances of "Lotto" you might also notice that they change the title of the song to "Louder" and the lyrics are changed to use the word louder instead of lotto as well. Gambling is illegal in Korea and it's one of those things that are banned from being talked about in mainstream media. So in order to make the song TV- and radio-friendly they had to change everything to "Louder." I think the two stories in both "Lotto" and "Monster" actually overlap. I think both MVs take place in the same location and around the same time frame, and in each MV you see the members in different moments as they try to destroy everything to do with this gambling ring. You see them breaking everything in both MVs and you see them smash the car in "Lotto," and in "Monster" you see the car has now been set on fire, and they burn the money and other things in "Lotto" as well, etc. At the end of "Lotto" you see the police or FBI have come in and are just starting to take the members into custody, but if you remember in "Monster" it shows all the members have now been arrested. So I see it as the fight starts in "Lotto" and continues in "Monster." At the end of "Monster" all the members were now in custody and Baekhyun rescues them as he releases them from the back of the police van allowing them to escape, etc. The birds you see in the cage are roosters -- cock fighting roosters to be exact -- and they are another form of gambling. And the dogs are probably guard dogs like what criminal enterprises use as part of their security to deter someone from causing trouble or wanting to rob them, etc. The dogs are thought to be part of the Red Forces' security efforts. Don't worry, SM and EXO don't like animal cruelty either, that's the whole point they are trying to make. It's just another form of evil that comes with gambling. Also remember, in the "Obsession" MV we see EXO are the members in all black and X-EXO are the members in the colorful outfits with the crazy makeup and hair. So, if you notice, in "Monster" the members are all in black for part of the MV (In "Monster" we also see EXO in black and red outfits, which we have now started to think is supposed to be X-EXO in those scenes because of the red on their outfits), and in "Lotto" they are pretty much in black or dark neutral colors, so that is why I think the story is being depicted from EXO's point of view. You also may notice that in "Monster," and in parts of "Lotto," Chanyeol has red hair. But at the end of "Lotto" when he is being arrested, he has blond hair. I think this also might mean that the Chanyeol with red hair is his X-EXO clone, while the blond Chanyeol is the good EXO member who is undercover, trying to accomplish his tasks here on Earth and help the girl, etc. So, in "Lotto" and "Monster" I think what we are watching are the EXO members trying to take down X-EXO and the Red Force and stop the evil and corruption that the Red Force is inflicting on the world, which is depicted here as corruption through illegal gambling. We are not really sure what the girl takes from Chanyeol at the end of "Lotto", but it definitely wasn't money. If you pay attention to the lyrics, one of the English lines is, "I don't need no money." That is why they burn the huge stack of cash. Most theories agree that the currency that EXO values the most is flowers. There is an overwhelming use of flowers in many of their MVs, and as you see in "Love Shot," for example, they aren't collecting money but flowers. And in EXO-CBX's "Hey Mama" and "Blooming Day" and in EXO's "Love Me Right", etc. you see them with flowers. My theory is that the girl is somehow connected to EXO's quest to find and protect the Tree of Life and that is why at the end of "Lotto" you see her secretly take something -- which, if you pause the MV and zoom in, you will see looks like a small video tape -- to somehow help them in their quest. The video tape is thought to be the video that D.O. is filming with the camcorder in the middle of "Lotto." It's still unclear at this point how the girl fits in the storyline, but I think, or at least I hope, that in the future we will discover more about her and what significance she has within the story. As mentioned before, some say the "girl" that EXO is always singing about and you sometimes see in their MVs -- like in "Lotto" -- is a manifestation of the heart of the Tree of Life and that is why the members are always rescuing or protecting the girl, etc. And why all their songs are about being in love with a girl or being controlled by the power of the girl, such as in "Overdose" for example. Or how they talk about knowing they are bad news for the girl but they want her anyway and they can't help it, but in the end they know they might destroy her -- as they say in "Monster," etc. etc. When you think of the girl as the heart of the Tree of Life the mystery begins to unfold even more. It's been seveal years since "Lotto" came out and I have seen the MV dozens of times, and each time I watch it I still see something different and am still working to unravel more clues. But "Lotto" and "Monster" are the two EXO MVs that have me the most confused. I'm still struggling to really grasp the full story those MVs are trying to tell. I think part of the reason why I find these two MVs so confusing, is the fact that they depart the most from the linear storyline and the story jumps back and forth between the two MVs so much that it's difficult to put the events in order to really make a clear picture.
you’re one of my new favorite reactors! your editing is so entertaining and so are you! EXO is one of my ult groups i’m glad you’re enjoying them and also baekhyunnie (my ult) and kai! i just watched your reaction to their solos too!
I loved Lotto the first time I heard it because of the deadpan "lalalala" from Xiumin. Lay was in Lotto, Monster and a small part of Tempo. He was not always with EXO because there was political tension between China and S. Korea that kept him away. Lay is very famous and important in China. He was inactive in the group for a few years, but he was part of their last comeback.
so the rappers are sehun (eyebrows) and chanyeol (the one with blue eye contacts in Tempo) and they actually have their own subunit called Exo-SC where it’s just them two so I think that’s perfect for u tbh
Next EXO reactions should be "The Eve" dance practice. Remember it has to be the dance practice version. You will cry, but it is worth it! Also, "kokobop" is another good song. Search for EXO "Artificial Love + White Noise + Thunder + PLAYBOY" for some more great songs performed live and incredible eye candy. Just subbed to your channel recently and enjoying your personality and content. Best wishes!
yaasss thank you for your reaction to EXO my ult grouuuup! they have a ton of super amazing live stages, but you should for SURE check out the White Noise + Thunder + Playboy+ Artificial Love performance!!
Sehun, your rapper man with the eyebrows, is also a main dancer 🤭 He released his first solo song On Me with a track mv (like a mini mv, while the complete song is available on audio) i would recommend, as well the dance practice that fans have uploaded on YT after he went live on insta with the choreographer and danced it live. For exo, if you wanna get to know more of their sibling nature i would highly highly recommend you watch their appearances on Knowing Bros show, i feel they're so close that they dont hesitate with voicing out their problems with each another & being frank, it makes for really funny episodes. Thanks for the honest reaction!!
omg the way I relate to the crying!! Hi, Mia! This is the first video of yours I'm watching! It was recommended to me :) EXO is my ult group!! Chanyeol is my ult bias but Baekhyun is also a bias for me. Chanyeol is one of the rappers, the one you mentioned the most during Lotto. But really I think you pointed everyone out and wanted to know who everyone was at one point or another! which I love! I'm definitely subscribing and joining you on your EXO journey
i'm glad you enjoyed exo! they are such a legendary and iconic group, the best discography in kpop in my humble opinion! not only an amazing group, but also amazing soloists too!
I loved your video! I’m glad you loved EXO, I recommend watching their live performance of white noise + thunder + playboy + artificial love, it’s all in one video! You’re not ready for it 🫡
omg im so happy you found exo! their entire discography is amazing. their music has a strong rnb vibe that you'll hear as you keep listening :) all the members are insanely talented too! i bet you'd love the songs call me baby and ko ko bop
Red suit guy is our best leader Suho and yellow suit guy is not-looking-like-youngest maknee Sehun - they're best leader & maknee pair that I have ever seen!
That guy with sharp eyebrows that caught your attention is Sehun. He's the rapper dancer visual and maknae of EXO! He's known for his cute personality, very mischievous and clingy, likes to prank his member, and he's very very loyal! He's really close with their leader and their bond are so endearing to watch! And he recently appeared in Street Men Fighter as hidden face(guest) of a team in that show! The clip of him dancing gets over 2 million views on twitter which is INSANE! You should definitely check him out. They don't have many variety shows sadly, but you can start by watching 'Travel the world with EXO ladder 2' to learn more about their personalities. One of the infamous incident from that show is when Sehun was afraid to sleep alone in a huge room and basically begging someone to sleep with him lol. (spoiler) Suho (the leader) slept with him every night in the show 😭
I love that you noticed about Lay hehe. Nways EXO is a very talented group I love them and will all them always. Xiumin and Lay will drop their new album this September soo excited 😍
It was super entertaining and relaxing for my mental health. Ukrainian EXOL appreciate. This boys are a huge part of my life since 2011. Thanks to Shinee who are my ults, that I found out super early about new SM boy group.
You will absolutely LOVE the Obsession and Ex'Act/Lotto repackage albums. Like, calling it at least Obsession may be one of your favorite KPop albums ever.
EXO are legendary and trendsetters Like Kai made crop tops for male idols a trend in Tempo(2018),Baekhyun made face chains a trend in Obsession and more
OMG thank you for reacting to exo!! I'm so shocked when you recognize xiumin in the tempo music video even though you just saw him ince in the guide website!! You have such a good memory!! Can't wait for your next exo reaction! ALSO, Xiumin is debuting his first solo album next week!! So you're just in time to follow his debut in real time💙 Thank you for this!💙
The red guy in obsession is suho the leader,the orange hair in lotto is chanyeol the 6”1 guy , the other rapper guy who caught your attention the most is sehun who have a strong eyebrows....exo’s discography is one of the best discographies not just in kpop but in general for me..their b-sides are just top tier so I can’t wait for you to start listen to their albums.also thank you for listening to them I appreciate it ❤️❤️
EXO has the best vocals in the industry. Their b sides are untouchable. I highly recommend watching their acoustic live performances
The rapper that you like is Sehun. He's the maknae. The other rapper with the abs is Chanyeol. They have a sub-unit, EXO-SC (S=ehun, C=Chanyeol). You should check them out. They have 2 albums.
2 albums :p
Up
@@boughanmimourad3328 amended! TQ
Up!
Up
You won’t regret getting into their music. Their albums are INCREDIBLE
Especially the repackaged album that has lotto on it, or the one with el dorado on it. Those are 10/10 albums for me omg
The one in obsession the rap part chanyeol and in lotto the Orange hair chanyeol and Monster Red hair chanyeol and tempo the one with Black hair and in love shot the one with the abs out Was chanyeol yep
😂😂😂😂
Pretty much Chanyeol 😂😂
@@quanzy121 yupp😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
😭😭😭😭
Fun fact;EXO holds the record(guiness records) for fastest sold out concert in the world in just 0.2s
They are 🔥 live
Agree she should react to this also
the reason you didn't really see much of Lay is because he hasn't really been active in EXO since he is a really famous artist in china. There's political problems between Korea ans Chin so SM kinda give him small parts and small appearences in the music videos but not too much. You will definitely see more of him in their older realeases tho
yeah but also he usually doesn't get lines or screentime on the korean versions :(. ( dftf was a pretty fair line distribution tho and I hope that by the time they're all back together that happens again)
Lay hasn't actively been in the EXO comebacks due to political issues between China and Korea. As he is an ambassador for China he can't actively promote with them so you won't see him or hear him much in their stuff from the past few years. You do see him more in the Chinese MV version for Tempo and he is in the MV for don't fight the feeling by them. He's mostly just promoting as a solo artist at the moment.
Oh and also the red suit man in obsession was Suho and the two rappers were Sehun (eyebrows) and Chanyeol
HHAHHA i never heard so many "he's so fine" before in your videos but i agree at this point they could all be visual in EXO all of them are SO FINE
But girl we told you, at least for me, Exo is ELITE they're so good I can't put words on how good I think they are, all of them
and if you want to see more of suho's abs I would recommend reacting to his "been through" live performances, absolutely amazing
Final comment, I promise!! You mentioned in a different video that you love R&B, and that is primarily what you listen to outside of K-pop. I just wanted to let you know that EXO's default/specialty genre is R&B. There is ALWAYS at least one R&B banger on every one of their albums, and their vocals just make them so NIIIIIIIICE. So I think this group is going to be a good fit for you. Hot men, GROWN men, elite skills and talents, live performance KINGS, and R&B specialists.
^THIS, I remember her sayin that and I immediately thought "she has GOT to get into EXO" cuz listen-----One and Only, Ooh La La La, Butterfly Effect, Baby Don't Cry, Walk on Memories, 24/7, and moar?? come on somebody!
@@valiataossagin3421 God, walk on memories is my one of my top 3 exo songs. If I have one last song to listen to it's gonna be that
@@valiataossagin3421 hi
Couldn't agree more with your coment!!!❤️
From a decade long EXO-L, I promise you, stanning this group will not leave you disappointed. They never did that to me. That's why I'm still here. From group music, to concerts, to variety shows, to their solos, it's just incredible. I'd do it again in the next life if I can.
Stanning EXO is one of the best things I've ever done.
What you saw in the "Obsession" MV was that EXO's doppelgangers were actually their alter ego clones and they were using their superpowers, such as Chanyeol with his fire power, Sehun uses his wind power to deflect the arrows, Baekhyun uses his power of light as a saber in the fencing battle, and Suho (the one with red hair) controls water in the room with all the pictures of water, etc. to fight their other selves. You see the planet on fire in the end of the MV because it's supposed to show how the world is coming to an end as EXO (the good guys in all black) and X-EXO (the evil ones in the colorful outfits with crazy hair and makeup) battle for control, etc. (Each of the members are playing 2 different characters -- there are only 6 people in this MV.)
X-EXO has been created by the evil Red Force and EXO and X-EXO are fighting each other. EXO are trying to prevent X-EXO from taking over and corrupting humanity and X-EXO are trying to stop EXO from finding the Tree of Life and putting the two halves back together and restoring peace, etc.
If you want to understand EXO's MVs then you need to know that EXO debuted in 2012. "Mama" is EXO's debut song and MV and it is how EXO was introduced to the world and it explains the group's concept -- and since then, everything SM does branches off from that storyline. From day one, EXO's concept is that they are aliens from planet Exo and they came to Earth with superpowers to protect the Tree of Life from the Red Forces. Each of the members has a superpower that is unique to them and almost every MV will have at least one, if not all of them, using their powers.
Now you also need to be aware that In the beginning there was 12 members and they were split up into 2 groups EXO-K and EXO-M. EXO-K sang and performed their songs in Korean and EXO-M sang and performed those same songs in Mandarin Chinese. EXO-K had 6 Korean members and EXO-M had 4 Chinese members and 2 Korean members. So to really understand their full origin story you have to watch both the K and the M version of "Mama", because the EXO-K version focuses on the K members and their powers and the EXO-M version focuses on the M members and their powers.
However, since then, 3 of the 4 Chinese members have left the group (short answer to focus on their solo work back in China) but there is still one Chinese member left, Lay. (Any performances or MVs you watch that took place prior to May 2014 you will see all 12 members.) However, now -- because they no longer have enough Chinese members -- they no longer do separate promotions, but they still produce almost all of their MVs and main songs in both Korean and Mandarin they just now promote all as one big group as EXO with 9 members. However, in the "Obsession" MV there are only 6 members -- Suho, Baekhyun, Chen, Chanyeol, Kai and Sehun -- because 2 of the members -- D.O. and Xiumin -- are on hiatus during this comeback as they serve in the military; and due to the political issues between the Korean and Chinese government, Lay -- their Chinese member -- was unable to participate in activities with the group.
So each new MV or project from EXO tells another part of the story, and over the years we fans have started to create a timeline and idea of what we think each part of the story is telling us. However, the introduction of "Obsession's" part of the story really threw all of our theories for a loop and it has made us question everything we have ever thought was happening in EXO's storyline.
The MV starts out with the red and blue light because it's supposed to represent how EXO are currently battling with X-EXO and the Red Force for control. In EXO's MVs when you see red light or anything that is red, this represents the Red Force, and when you see blue light or anything that is blue, this is thought to represent EXO. Therefore, when you see red and blue in one scene or purple -- red and blue mixed together make purple -- this is showing how the line between the two sides is being blurred and they are fighting each other, etc.
Since "Obsession" some think maybe EXO has been trapped somewhere from the very beginning and it has been X-EXO that we have been following all along. But I think it's still even more complex than that. I think at times we have been watching EXO and at times we have been watching X-EXO -- with the release of "Obsession" we have only just discovering that the story hasn't necessarily been showing EXO the whole time.
With the new information provided to us through "Obsession," it also makes me question how Lay fits within the X-EXO/EXO storyline. Maybe he is one of the members who has been able to break free or avoid the Red Forces' control. In Lay's solo MV for "Sheep," the Allen Walker relift version, we see everything burning outside as if an apocalypse is happening. Maybe "Sheep" is showing us the planet burning from Lay's viewpoint, like we see the world burning at the end of the "Obsession" MV.
Also, I believe that the storyline in "Obsession" is connected to SuperM's debut "Jopping" MV storyline. If you pay attention to what Baekhyun and Kai were wearing in "Obsession," those outfits are very similar to the black outfits that Baekhyun and Kai are wearing in the "Jopping" MV. Kai is even wearing the same backpack parachute in both MVs. Which seems to be SM Entertainment's way of making sure we see the connection between those MVs. So it is thought that, as part of SuperM's storyline, EXO has gathered the best of the best of SM's groups -- EXO, Taemin/SHINee, NCT/WayV -- to help them battle the Red Force and maybe eventually take down X-EXO. Just like the Marvel Avengers come together as individual superheroes with their own storylines to create the Avengers and to fight evil, it is thought that SuperM is coming together to create the ultimate supergroup to help EXO fight the evil and corruption inflicted on humanity by the Red Force.
Unfortunately, to make it even more difficult to understand, each part of the story is not necessarily in chronological order, so we as EXO-L (EXO fans) have to become detectives and analyze every aspect of all of their teasers, MVs, song lyrics, albums, concert VCRs, choreography and even live performances and piece it all together to understand the story behind it all. And not only are EXO's and SuperM's MVs and storylines connected, but pretty much all of SM's groups have storylines and concepts that connect together, which is designed to become part of one giant graphic novel or movie in the SM Culture Universe.
To help you pinpoint the powers being used in EXO's MVs and live performances, here is a list of the members and what their special power is.
EXO-K
💦 Suho (Kim JunMyeon) is the leader of the group and he is a lead vocalist -- his power is the ability to control water (Fun fact: Suho in Korean means guardian, as in the guardian of EXO. That's why as the leader of EXO, his stage name is Suho.)
💡Baekhyun is a main vocalist and his superpower is the ability to control light
🔥Chanyeol is the main rapper and lead vocalist -- his power is the ability to control fire and his spirit animal is the phoenix.
🌏D.O. (Do KyungSoo) is a main vocalist and his power is the ability to control earth (dirt) which gives him strength/force
☄Kai (Kim JongIn) is a main dancer, lead vocalist and sub-rapper and his power is teleportation (Kai means opening as in a door or gateway, so his stage name is meant to symbolize his role in the group.)
🌪Sehun is the youngest member of the group and he is a lead rapper, lead dancer and a vocalist -- his power is the ability to control wind
EXO-M
❄Xiumin (Kim MinSeok) is the oldest member of the group and he is a lead vocalist and lead rapper and his power is the ability to control snow/ice (frost)
🦄 Lay (Zhang Yixing) is the Chinese member of the group, he is a main dancer, lead vocalist and rapper -- his power is the ability to heal anything.
🌩 Chen (Kim JongDae) is a main vocalist and his power is the ability to control thunder/lightning/electricity
(As you can see, Xiumin and Chen were given stage names that sounded more Chinese so they would fit in better in EXO-M because they are the Korean members of the Chinese group)
The Chinese members who are no longer part of the group, but are still an important part of EXO's storyline:
🐉 Kris was the leader of EXO-M he was a main rapper and vocalist -- his power was the ability to fly and his spirit animal was a dragon (Kris left the group in April 2014.)
💭 Luhan was a main vocalist and his power was telekinesis (The ability to control things with his mind) (Luhan left the group in October 2014.)
⏰Tao (Z.Tao) was a lead rapper and vocalist and the martial artist of the group, so he did the flips and stunts in the group's routines. His power was the ability to control time (Tao ended activities with EXO in August 2015.)
Holy crap you summed that up so well!!!
Wow thats a serious stan! 👏👏👏
OMG this was is great, I hope it doesn't make her brain spin......its a lot to take in all at once and this is only the tip of the backstory/concept iceberg lol. So so so so so much to see and react to. Even the teasers we get hold information that may help us figure out the storyline. Even their very first teasers. Seriously, it is one of the main things that keeps you drawn into EXO, not just their powerful dancing, unbelievable vocals and hip hoppin rap lines. LIterally EVERYTHING they do pulls you in and keeps you coming back for more.
My favorite Shawol is here ahahahaah so happy to see you here and in some Suju videos too. Always appreciate your comments.
come on, paragraph! yesss ❤️ giving the girls the information that they need to know.
In Lotto the orange hair guy you asked about is Chanyeol, the rapper/tallest member at 6'1
The guy who caught your eye in Tempo was the maknae Sehun 6'0.
Your 2 rappers in Love Shot is yes Chanyeol and Sehun (your fav) Sehun again is the youngest and so handsome.
I’m 100% convinced Editing Mia and reactor Mia are two completely different people because how the HELL did you listen to Tempo and not IMMEDIATELY know what it was about 😭 AND YOU LITERALLY MENTIONED THE BED CREAKING IM SCREAMING AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA
Exo is not only a super talented group, they also have a amazing story line on going. It's seriously so cool.
exo b-sides are top tier like truly untouchable
can't wait to see you discover their discography of gold
Baekhyun frustrated me the most when I first got into EXO because his looks changed SO drastically each MV. I kept yelling, “who tf is that?!” At the time his solo career wasn’t really a thing so yeah. Kokobop & Monster Baekhyun made my brain explode
Really?I felt that Baekhyun had the most consistent features. I didn't really struggle bc I feel like their faces are so distinct but I kept forgetting Suho at the beginning. Now I be searching for him in every video
@@lucasbieber9051 me too suho & sehun. i always got lay and sehun confused for some reason and sometimes still do😭
@@woolous6127 at first my sister set me up bc she showed me the iconic love shot performance and I said I liked the one with the intense/dark eyebrows and she told me that was D.O🤦🏾♀So for a while I thought Sehun was D.O and the other way around
@@lucasbieber9051 😭😭i love your sister now
@@woolous6127 stawp, she was so bad at teaching me members why did she do the same thing with yang yang and xiaojun when I got into NCT?😭
You complimenting Xiumin with “He’s so pretty!!” made me so happy. He’s my ultimate kpop bias ever and it melts my heart whenever he receives compliments especially from non-EXO-Ls or those who are just beginning to get to know EXO. 🥺💛
I enjoyed this video so much, thanks for loving our boys. 🥰
EXO are all all rounders like literally they are actors,models,musicians everything
Ex.Chanyeol one of the main rappers can rap,sing,play guitar,piano,drums,bass,can Dj and is also a producer and songwriter by the name Loey
Shall we tell Mia that the rap line (Chanyeol +Sehun) are also an EXO subunit, EXO SC, and they already released two albums 😚 ?!
😭😭😭 rapper man’s name (the one with the strong eyebrows) is Sehun and the other one is Chanyeol and I think you’ll be happy to know that they have a sub-unit: EXO-SC 🔥🔥
can’t wait to see more EXO on your channel!! they’re the only group i stan for now but i’m discovering so many amazing groups thanks to your reactions 💕
i already know you’ll get the best recommendations from other exo-ls, the only thing i’ll say is that you HAVE to watch their live performances, especially this one: White Noise + Thunder + Playboy + Artificial Love ua-cam.com/video/qi6vqNaEe14/v-deo.html
ALSO!! they have some amazing individual guides (by Cesar Oh) and I recommend watching those to learn more about the members, even if you don’t react to them you could still watch them on your own because they’re very helpful and informative :)
I'm so hyped about this series that I get to be here so early lmao exo are nation's pick for a reason, you won't regret getting deeper into them!
POPULARITY AND LEGNDARITY ARE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS. Popularity is there today, tomorrow it is gone, and LEGENDARITY IS WITH YOU FOREVER. EXO songs released in 2012 in
their debut album are relevant to this day.
EVERY EXO ALBUM IS A VISION OF ART THAT YOU CAN LISTEN TO ENDLESSLY. EXO MUSIC IS TIMELESS. EXO ARE RELEVANT EVEN AFTER 10 YEARS OF CAREER.
My rapper man #1: 6'1" main rapper, back-bend-wonder at the start of Obsession, Blue eyes in Tempo = Chanyeol
My rapper man #2: "One who keeps coming to the front", shot arrows in Obsession, main dancer along with Kai, @38:37) = maknae Sehun
Do Kyungsoo is just incredible in every sense. He is one of the few vocalists who can make your heart flutter and cause a storm of emotions. He manages his deep voice and sweet timbre with such ease that the same part can sound completely different "starting very roughly and ending unrealistically gently". Kyungsoo's unique voice gives each song a unique charm. I'm ready to listen to his voice as much as I want.! Even when Kyungsoo just speaks, he wants to listen and listen to endlessly, such a pleasant voice.
PLEASE REACTION TO: D.O SOLO ALBUM "EMPATHY". D.O OST "CRYING OUT". D.O OST "DON'T WORRY". D.O MV "ROSE". D.O MV "THAT'S OKAY". D.O MV "TELL ME WHAT IS LOVE". D.O AND CHEN "WERE THE TIME". D.O AND RYEWOOK "MISSING YOU". D.O, SUHO, BAEKHYUN PERFORMANCE "MY ANSWER".
D.O AND CHANYEOL "FOR LIFE".
D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "YOURSELF".
D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "BOYFRIEND".
D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "BILLIONAIRE".
The one singing with the deep voice in Lotto's last chorus is Chanyeol. He isn't just an amazing rapper, but also an amazing singer, you should check out a video there is called "EXO VOCAL KINGS" because it shows you how all of them in the group are AMAZING singers
Welcome to EXO planet
Vocal and RnB kings of kpop
One of my favorite groups since their debut!!! The live and ESPECIALLY the concerts will ROCK YOUR WORLD
Nah cause Suho in obsession(red suit) did it for me HE LOOKED SO GOOD
Kai is the trendsetters for crop tops in kpop, since Tempo Kai uses crop tops and other idols begun to use it after the suscesfull of Kai.
I got into EXO 4 months ago and they have me in a chokehold. They are all amazing
if exo calling you ‘baby’ is your thing, then ‘call me baby’ is a must. it’s got the most iconic ‘baby girl’. an easy way to differentiate the rappers at first is chanyeol has the ears and sehun has the brows. chanyeol’s voice is a lot more gravelly and husky compared to sehun’s as well. in earlier videos, chanyeol won’t be dancing at the front anywhere near as much as sehun who’s a dancer.
LMAO 14:04 you complaining not seeing Suho’s abs and then💥 right in your face 🤣🤣
In Obsession, red suit is Suho and yellow suit is Sehun
+ red suit with killing make up: chen aka nation's dad
fire rapper: chanyeol
the fact that she started off with obsession 😭 obsession is the all out attack video. Suho had his abs out yes.
You curated an awesome intro to EXO Mia.
I hope you’re ready for the EXO rabbit hole you’re about to fall into because their discography is DEEEEEP AF
Yes!!! Exo's reaction gonna be a wrecking the hell out of me reaction for you 🤣
My absolute favorite group...i hope you watch more of their songs..they are great live! They have some insanely sexy live performances! The two rappers are Chenyeol and Sehun (the mackne)
EXO’s logo is the hexagon(Chanyeol made it)but they change the design of it in every comeback
You liked all members that's so cool it's already a promising beginning
As others told you Sehun was the one who you kept pointing out the most. Sehun WRECKED me hard in Ko Ko Bop. I'll be looking forward to that reaction.
Sehun is so fine🥵 and he is a little brat, always the cool unbothered guy but very funny (him and Chanyeol have such a dry humour esp together) and weird lol
Sehun, our expensive evil maknae hahaha
I immediately stopped watching another reaction video once I got this notif. 🤣🤣🤣 Mia is the GOAT for relatable content stg!
One of the best discographies in kpop(if not the best)
U have to check out more of them and ofc their b sides
Girl your edits are always the BEST got me dying everytime🤣🤣
Lay, hasn't been able to actively participate with EXO since 2016. Lotto was his last MV with them, prior to his participation on their most recent comeback/special album "Don't Fight The Feeling". This album is solid gold, by the way, you really will want to give it a listen (title track and MV + 4 B-sides). You will see Lay in their earlier videos, somewhat, but SM always did him dirty and he was never really given his fair share of lines or center time. Much like my boy Sehun. He wasn't able to participate due to tensions between China and South Korea. China didn't like Lay working for and making money for a South Korean company, rather than for this motherland.
The main dancers of EXO are Kai,Lay and Sehun
our superior dance line 🔥😌

The song is called "Tempo" and the album is named Don't Mess Up My Tempo, so, the tempo keeps speeding up and slowing down. I think the change in tempo is also supposed to mirror the uncertainty and unsteadiness that EXO are feeling within the storyline in the MV.
However, if you read the lyrics, you see that the song is talking to a girl and they are telling her, "Don't mess up my tempo." And yes, part of the tempo in the song is created by the squeak of what is thought to be bed springs. However, as with everything EXO does, there are duel meanings depending on how deeply you want to interpret the song and MV. On the surface the song and MV is meant to be enjoyed by the casual watcher and listener like you would any song on the radio, but if you want to delve in deeper and explore EXO's storyline, then there is so much more going on.
As an SM Entertainment group, it shouldn't be a surprise that EXO are amazing vocalists -- hence the a capella part in the song. That is just what SM is known for. You can't be an SM artist without having amazing vocals and dance skills. That's just a fact about the type of people SM selects to become part of its company. All of SM's artists were first chosen for their visuals, vocals and/or dance skills, and even the rappers get intense training as vocalists. That is why SM is known as the vocal powerhouse of the industry. And EXO is a perfect example of that.
The aesthetic of the "Tempo" MV is centered around the color red because the setting is supposed to be depicting the members under the Red Forces' control. Without going into too much detail -- there is so much going on in EXO's "Tempo" MV that it's hard to grasp it all -- what fan theories think is happening in "Tempo" is it is showing the members of EXO all trapped in separate dimensions. Each of those rooms, could possibly be a different dimension and that is why you see the glitches and why you hear Xiumin and Baekhyun with that computerized voice, because they aren't all in the same place at the same time, so their voices are being distorted as they try to connect between dimensions, etc.
They also still could be trapped in different rooms within the maze, like what we saw them in their "Overdose" MV. For several of EXO's MVs we believe they are still trapped within the maze and they are continuously trying to find their way out. The maze seems to affect their connection to their powers and it clouds their minds and dulls their senses, so not only are they fighting the Red Force and X-EXO, but they are also struggling to break free from the fog the Red Force has them in. That's why you see some of the members just lazily sitting around and kind of blankly staring off into space at times.
Baekhyun is the one that is singled out in the MV and he is the one standing above everything looking down, so this is one example of where we think that maybe he is the only one who has avoided the Red Force's control and he is observing everything that is going on from the outside.
You see Chanyeol being interrogated by Chen with the inkblot test and that is thought to be the members trying to figure out who are the real EXO members and who are the evil X-EXO members created by the Red Force -- or who are the real members and who are the clones. At this point everyone is suspicious of each other and no one can be trusted.
As you may have noticed, halfway through the MV Chanyeol's eyes and hair change color, so some think that this is either showing two different versions of Chanyeol who appear in two different time periods or dimensions, or one is Chanyeol the EXO member and one is Chanyeol the X-EXO clone. Often, when you see a character in one of SM's MVs with blue eyes or different eye colors this usually means they are not who they appear to be.
The "Chess game" is thought to be supernatural EXO chess, and I don't think it's a game they are playing, but I think maybe it's something they are using to try to decipher a clue or figure out a way out of wherever the Red Force has them trapped at the moment. It's unclear right now what that scene is really telling us, but I have a feeling things will become clearer in the future as more of EXO's storyline is unveiled in future MVs and as SM's SM Culture Universe storyline continues to evolve.
You also see Sehun on the motorcycle in this MV, which I now think is connected to the scene where we see him driving a motorcycle in EXO's "Lightsaber" MV and sitting on the motorcycle in their new "Don't Fight the Feeling" MV.
In the very last scene, that is Baekhyun with that cube. I am not sure what that means, but I am sure it's foreshadowing something to come in the future with EXO's storyline.
EXO's Chinese member, Lay, is in this MV, but you won't see or hear him sing or dance because you watched the Korean version, and at this time, because of the political issues between China and Korea, the Chinese government only gave him permission to appear in the Korean version of "Tempo", but he wasn't allowed to participate in the song. If you want to hear Lay sing you will have to watch the Mandarin version.
Nothing in this MV is random or done just because, even the smallest of detail has been planned out to either connect to something to do with EXO's storyline from past MVs or it will become a key part to help explain something in one of their future MVs.
Girl out here leaving Monster for last. Monster is like THE most iconic choreography in the industry. Practically every active idol group has covered this song (and if not Monster, they’ve covered Growl. But they’ve probably covered both), that first chorus with the X formation is like the MOST covered piece of choreography in kpop.
I dropped everything at the notif bc I knew Mia was gonna die in this one and had to pay my respects
11:38 that's Jongdae known as Chen. 10:34 that's Sehun, and your other rapper man. 12:27 and 14: 09 the leader of the group, Suho. 18:30 is Chanyeol, and 20:41 is his voice. 20:21 yeah that's Lay. 24:26 is the youngest, Sehun.
Everyone in this group keeps coming after me
She is pointing Sehun and ChanYeol so much throughout all the videos!! Yesss!! That is EXO's rapper line!!!
Welcome to the exo wormhole. I first didn't want to Stan them at the time I first got into kpop cause I thought they were overrated, but I'm glad I proved myself wrong. Now they are part of my top 5 including Nct and got7. They have if not the best, one of the best b-sides in kpop. Btw, I love your Libra necklace 😉
Yup, Lotto Baekhyun is something else. It's one of the main reason why he's my bias..
Note: You absolutely fall for our rap line, Chanyeol the orange hair in Lotto and our maknae, Sehun the eyebrows. Lucky for you, they form a subunit EXO-SC that have 2 albums..
Xiumin that u mentionedd at the beginning he will have his own first solo album on september 26th outt
Cant wait to hear him more
Yes they have a story like ateez, and exo is the first group who started to have a storyline concept, their storyline dates back to pre debut too. They are aliens who is trying to save the tree of life. I can't explain everything their story line is huge (there's a rumor sooman has a entire book about it)
Girlie living on the edge starting with Obsession
20:40 The deep voice rapper is Chanyeol, love his tone too!
Edit: the other rapper is Sehun, you confuse them a few times but he also seemed to catch your eye!
EXO always delivers, they literally are the definition of a group with "no skip" albums. Their b-sides are incredible. I highly recommend their live performances, like their acoustic melody, "White Noise + Thunder + PLAYBOY + Artificial Love" performance, and "MAMA + Monster + Wolf" performance from their previous concerts. They will blow your mind! Looking forward to more EXO content!
Best discography in kpop imo
And generally more mature music compared to other groups
All of these songs are such iconic kpop hits
They are the legends of vocals in whole kpop
They do all the producing levels by themselves
Fan theories believe that "Lotto" is the prequel to "Monster." "Monster" is from EXO's EX'Act album and "Lotto" is from their EX'Act repackaged album, which came out a few weeks after "Monster" in 2016. So, to understand the story in "Lotto" and "Monster" you have to connect the two storylines. How I interpret things is that the story starts in "Lotto" as EXO goes undercover and works to take down the gambling ring, which is thought to probably be run by the Red Force, and now that we know about EXO's clones, from their "Obsession" storyline, maybe even X-EXO are involved.
Fun fact: Kai -- EXO-K's main dancer -- isn't dancing in the "Lotto" MV. As you saw, Lay -- EXO-M's main dancer -- and Sehun -- EXO-K's other main dancer -- are the dancers highlighted in "Lotto." Kai was injured during this time and couldn't dance, which is why you see him sitting down in the MV.
In live performances at this time, Kai is absent when Lay is part of the performance because he is still recovering. However, when Kai is back performing the song, Lay was absent because he was busy doing solo activities in China.
If you watch any live TV network performances of "Lotto" you might also notice that they change the title of the song to "Louder" and the lyrics are changed to use the word louder instead of lotto as well. Gambling is illegal in Korea and it's one of those things that are banned from being talked about in mainstream media. So in order to make the song TV- and radio-friendly they had to change everything to "Louder."
I think the two stories in both "Lotto" and "Monster" actually overlap. I think both MVs take place in the same location and around the same time frame, and in each MV you see the members in different moments as they try to destroy everything to do with this gambling ring. You see them breaking everything in both MVs and you see them smash the car in "Lotto," and in "Monster" you see the car has now been set on fire, and they burn the money and other things in "Lotto" as well, etc.
At the end of "Lotto" you see the police or FBI have come in and are just starting to take the members into custody, but if you remember in "Monster" it shows all the members have now been arrested. So I see it as the fight starts in "Lotto" and continues in "Monster." At the end of "Monster" all the members were now in custody and Baekhyun rescues them as he releases them from the back of the police van allowing them to escape, etc.
The birds you see in the cage are roosters -- cock fighting roosters to be exact -- and they are another form of gambling. And the dogs are probably guard dogs like what criminal enterprises use as part of their security to deter someone from causing trouble or wanting to rob them, etc. The dogs are thought to be part of the Red Forces' security efforts. Don't worry, SM and EXO don't like animal cruelty either, that's the whole point they are trying to make. It's just another form of evil that comes with gambling.
Also remember, in the "Obsession" MV we see EXO are the members in all black and X-EXO are the members in the colorful outfits with the crazy makeup and hair. So, if you notice, in "Monster" the members are all in black for part of the MV (In "Monster" we also see EXO in black and red outfits, which we have now started to think is supposed to be X-EXO in those scenes because of the red on their outfits), and in "Lotto" they are pretty much in black or dark neutral colors, so that is why I think the story is being depicted from EXO's point of view.
You also may notice that in "Monster," and in parts of "Lotto," Chanyeol has red hair. But at the end of "Lotto" when he is being arrested, he has blond hair. I think this also might mean that the Chanyeol with red hair is his X-EXO clone, while the blond Chanyeol is the good EXO member who is undercover, trying to accomplish his tasks here on Earth and help the girl, etc.
So, in "Lotto" and "Monster" I think what we are watching are the EXO members trying to take down X-EXO and the Red Force and stop the evil and corruption that the Red Force is inflicting on the world, which is depicted here as corruption through illegal gambling.
We are not really sure what the girl takes from Chanyeol at the end of "Lotto", but it definitely wasn't money. If you pay attention to the lyrics, one of the English lines is, "I don't need no money." That is why they burn the huge stack of cash. Most theories agree that the currency that EXO values the most is flowers. There is an overwhelming use of flowers in many of their MVs, and as you see in "Love Shot," for example, they aren't collecting money but flowers. And in EXO-CBX's "Hey Mama" and "Blooming Day" and in EXO's "Love Me Right", etc. you see them with flowers.
My theory is that the girl is somehow connected to EXO's quest to find and protect the Tree of Life and that is why at the end of "Lotto" you see her secretly take something -- which, if you pause the MV and zoom in, you will see looks like a small video tape -- to somehow help them in their quest. The video tape is thought to be the video that D.O. is filming with the camcorder in the middle of "Lotto." It's still unclear at this point how the girl fits in the storyline, but I think, or at least I hope, that in the future we will discover more about her and what significance she has within the story.
As mentioned before, some say the "girl" that EXO is always singing about and you sometimes see in their MVs -- like in "Lotto" -- is a manifestation of the heart of the Tree of Life and that is why the members are always rescuing or protecting the girl, etc. And why all their songs are about being in love with a girl or being controlled by the power of the girl, such as in "Overdose" for example. Or how they talk about knowing they are bad news for the girl but they want her anyway and they can't help it, but in the end they know they might destroy her -- as they say in "Monster," etc. etc. When you think of the girl as the heart of the Tree of Life the mystery begins to unfold even more.
It's been seveal years since "Lotto" came out and I have seen the MV dozens of times, and each time I watch it I still see something different and am still working to unravel more clues. But "Lotto" and "Monster" are the two EXO MVs that have me the most confused. I'm still struggling to really grasp the full story those MVs are trying to tell. I think part of the reason why I find these two MVs so confusing, is the fact that they depart the most from the linear storyline and the story jumps back and forth between the two MVs so much that it's difficult to put the events in order to really make a clear picture.
The one with the abs in Obsession is Suho(leader,lead vocal)
istg mia literally got wrecked by all of ma babiess😂 she just mentioned different person in each videos I'm rollinggg
you’re one of my new favorite reactors! your editing is so entertaining and so are you! EXO is one of my ult groups i’m glad you’re enjoying them and also baekhyunnie (my ult) and kai! i just watched your reaction to their solos too!
I loved Lotto the first time I heard it because of the deadpan "lalalala" from Xiumin.
Lay was in Lotto, Monster and a small part of Tempo. He was not always with EXO because there was political tension between China and S. Korea that kept him away. Lay is very famous and important in China. He was inactive in the group for a few years, but he was part of their last comeback.
Xiumin's Lalala is the best, and i wanna hear more people talking about it ♡
your editing is hilarious oh my god nshHDGWEHDG you’re so fun to watch!!! thank you for reacting to EXO ❤
I love EXO 😍😍😍
I love D.O's unique voice and fantastic and and everything 💘💘💘👍👍👍
so the rappers are sehun (eyebrows) and chanyeol (the one with blue eye contacts in Tempo) and they actually have their own subunit called Exo-SC where it’s just them two so I think that’s perfect for u tbh
Next EXO reactions should be "The Eve" dance practice. Remember it has to be the dance practice version. You will cry, but it is worth it! Also, "kokobop" is another good song. Search for EXO "Artificial Love + White Noise + Thunder + PLAYBOY" for some more great songs performed live and incredible eye candy. Just subbed to your channel recently and enjoying your personality and content. Best wishes!
yaasss thank you for your reaction to EXO my ult grouuuup! they have a ton of super amazing live stages, but you should for SURE check out the White Noise + Thunder + Playboy+ Artificial Love performance!!
i laughed everytime you asked who Chanyeol is in each of the music videos 😂 i’m like yooo that’s himmm your rapper guy
If you ever listen to an EXO album I recommend the 2nd and 3rd albums. They are truly top tier.
I have to warn you that once you go in the exo rabbit hole is impossible to go out so welcome!
Sehun, your rapper man with the eyebrows, is also a main dancer 🤭 He released his first solo song On Me with a track mv (like a mini mv, while the complete song is available on audio) i would recommend, as well the dance practice that fans have uploaded on YT after he went live on insta with the choreographer and danced it live.
For exo, if you wanna get to know more of their sibling nature i would highly highly recommend you watch their appearances on Knowing Bros show, i feel they're so close that they dont hesitate with voicing out their problems with each another & being frank, it makes for really funny episodes.
Thanks for the honest reaction!!
omg the way I relate to the crying!! Hi, Mia! This is the first video of yours I'm watching! It was recommended to me :) EXO is my ult group!! Chanyeol is my ult bias but Baekhyun is also a bias for me. Chanyeol is one of the rappers, the one you mentioned the most during Lotto. But really I think you pointed everyone out and wanted to know who everyone was at one point or another! which I love! I'm definitely subscribing and joining you on your EXO journey
i stan so many new bgs but exo will always have my heart
You've been loving my man Chanyeol so much. I love it! He's discharging from the military on the 28th! I say it's time to STAN!!
EXO FINALLYYY
45 mins full of exo reactions? hell i’m on board!
i'm glad you enjoyed exo! they are such a legendary and iconic group, the best discography in kpop in my humble opinion! not only an amazing group, but also amazing soloists too!
I loved your video! I’m glad you loved EXO, I recommend watching their live performance of white noise + thunder + playboy + artificial love, it’s all in one video! You’re not ready for it 🫡
XIUMIN ON THUMBNAIL 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lol omg i love your reaction and commentary. Also i love your hair 😫❤
omg im so happy you found exo! their entire discography is amazing. their music has a strong rnb vibe that you'll hear as you keep listening :) all the members are insanely talented too! i bet you'd love the songs call me baby and ko ko bop
I just love seeing other people crazy for Sehun, he's beautiful!
once you deep dive in EXO you cannot get out anymore. looking forward to your next reaction! you'll love them..
Red suit guy is our best leader Suho and yellow suit guy is not-looking-like-youngest maknee Sehun - they're best leader & maknee pair that I have ever seen!
That guy with sharp eyebrows that caught your attention is Sehun. He's the rapper dancer visual and maknae of EXO! He's known for his cute personality, very mischievous and clingy, likes to prank his member, and he's very very loyal! He's really close with their leader and their bond are so endearing to watch! And he recently appeared in Street Men Fighter as hidden face(guest) of a team in that show! The clip of him dancing gets over 2 million views on twitter which is INSANE! You should definitely check him out.
They don't have many variety shows sadly, but you can start by watching 'Travel the world with EXO ladder 2' to learn more about their personalities. One of the infamous incident from that show is when Sehun was afraid to sleep alone in a huge room and basically begging someone to sleep with him lol. (spoiler) Suho (the leader) slept with him every night in the show 😭
Their vocals is literally out of this world. U can check it out. vocal king for a reason
I love that you noticed about Lay hehe. Nways EXO is a very talented group I love them and will all them always. Xiumin and Lay will drop their new album this September soo excited 😍
It was super entertaining and relaxing for my mental health. Ukrainian EXOL appreciate.
This boys are a huge part of my life since 2011. Thanks to Shinee who are my ults, that I found out super early about new SM boy group.
Yezzzzzzz! Do more EXO please! You won’t regret it! I swear!!!! You’ll love them for sure
Can’t wait to get to know them more!
You will absolutely LOVE the Obsession and Ex'Act/Lotto repackage albums. Like, calling it at least Obsession may be one of your favorite KPop albums ever.
EXO are legendary and trendsetters
Like Kai made crop tops for male idols a trend in Tempo(2018),Baekhyun made face chains a trend in Obsession and more
OMG thank you for reacting to exo!! I'm so shocked when you recognize xiumin in the tempo music video even though you just saw him ince in the guide website!! You have such a good memory!! Can't wait for your next exo reaction! ALSO, Xiumin is debuting his first solo album next week!! So you're just in time to follow his debut in real time💙 Thank you for this!💙
