Yes, as the main dancer Kai is the center in EXO. Most of the time you will notice the main dancers are the ones in the front and center of most Kpop groups. But it's also part of EXO's storyline. Kim JongIn was given the stage name Kai because Kai means opening -- as in a door or gateway -- in Chinese. (That's also why Kai is often the first one to be introduced or seen in a lot of EXO content, because he is the opening of everything.) As the center of the group, its Kai's job to connect the members of EXO-K and EXO-M together and make them one as a group. EXO's slogan is "We are one." That is also why Kai was given the superpower of teleportation because it's his job to travel across time and space and through history and dimensions to find all the EXO members and bring them together, etc. Kai stands in the center and strengthens the members so they are able to overcome obstacles and defeat the Red Force, etc. Literally everything EXO does is for a very specific reason and it always has something to do with their storyline. Nothing you see or hear is ever random or there just because. Also, why do you prefer "real guns" with bullets? Do you need to see them threatening to shoot and murder people to make the story good? They're not children playing with water guns. Most likely those are supernatural weapons and the water/alcohol in them have a counteracting, neutralization effect, etc. with whatever the Red Force is using to trap or control them. The reason why the guns are filled with water and alcohol is because the whole point EXO is trying to make is that the human world is too full of violence and we don't need to use bullets to get our point across. The EXO members are using shots of Love and shots of alcohol, etc. to stop the Red Force and prevent the corruption of humanity. It's a metaphor within EXO's whole storyline.
As with most of EXO's songs and MVs -- such as "Love Shot" -- the song and the story in the MV are two separate things. There are two messages that the story tells in the MV. Yes, the story in the MV is loosely based on the lyrics of the song, but the main point of the MV is mostly to tell another part of EXO's story. Everything EXO is involved in, and I literally mean almost everything -- including all of their MVs, the majority of their sub-sub-unit MVs and members' solo MVs, teaser videos, concert stages, concert VCRs (videos played in between sets at concerts) and choreography, as well as special content included with their albums, etc. -- is designed to help tell a little more of EXO's story. EXO debuted back in 2012, and from the very beginning their concept is that they are aliens from Planet Exo who have come to Earth with superpowers to protect the Tree of Life from the Red Forces. And as otherworldly beings, each of the members has a superpower that is unique to them. There are 8 members in "Love Shot." Lay, EXO's Chinese member, was not able to participate in this MV. In "Love Shot" I'm not sure why EXO first ended up at the gas/service station or the cinema/movie theater, but the story in this MV is all about how the Red Force is trying to corrupt and control them. For example, supposedly, most fans agree that Xiumin may have been captured by the Red Force -- or maybe it's his X-EXO clone. If you notice, Xiumin is squaring off with a group of guys with guns, but a few seconds later we see someone with a mask and when the mask is removed we see that it's Xiumin, which seems to show that he may not be who we think he is. (We also see Xiumin -- pronounced Shoe-Min, X in Chinese makes the English SH sound -- not Suho or Sehun, talking to or listening to someone or something on a red phone.) And when Chen is sitting in the theater watching the film, we see what fans agree is Suho, as the leader, probably trying to protect the members and prevent Chen from watching the film by covering his eyes. Whatever is being played on the movie screen is thought to probably be the Red Force trying to control EXO. (Which is now thought to also be connected to the fact that we see Chen and Xiumin in the theater in EXO's new "Let Me In" MV.) We also see references to the movie screen with Chen being projected on the screen in their "Lucky One" MV and the scene where Suho is running through the forest in their "For Life" MV, etc. These instances seem to be showing times when the Red Force are using the videos to brainwash EXO to keep them incapacitated so they don't try to fight back or escape, etc. In "Love Shot," one theory is that the members are fighting to discover who has been corrupted by the Red Force and who may not be who they say they are, etc., which I see as a sort of continuation of the story in their "Tempo" MV. This is why we see them being very suspicious pointing their guns -- which are filled with alcohol -- at each other. (Get it? The song is called "Love Shot" so it has a double meaning: Love Shot like a gun and Love Shot like a shot of alcohol. :D Plus, they don't have real guns because it has to do with their storyline, they don't need guns to defeat the Red Force.) We also see a glass cube with a red liquid inside, which seems to be part of a theme that connects across all of EXO's storyline. We see a similar cube in several of EXO's other MVs. The flowers have two purposes, one is they represent Love and EXO is collecting love, but also the flowers are a big part of EXO's storyline. There has been a flower theme that continues throughout all of EXO's MVs. The flowers are thought to be something that EXO is collecting and trying to get rid of to prevent the Red Force from being able to control people, etc. They often collect the flowers and then burn them, like we see in "Love Shot" and in EXO-CBX's "Hey Mama" MV. Blue roses also have some sort of significance, but I am not sure what yet -- we see EXO with a blue rose in their concert performances of "Lightsaber" and we see Sehun with a blue rose in "Love Shot." Some of what happens in this story is explained by past MVs and other parts will hopefully be explained as the story continues in future MVs. Money is the root of all evil, and people's obsession with material goods and wealth could be one of the ways the Red Force is using to control humanity, which is why we see EXO trying to take down the gambling ring in their "Monster" and "Lotto" MVs and why they talk about money in EXO-CBX's Japanese song "Ka-Ching," etc. They also burn the giant stack of money in "Monster"/"Lotto." It's not an isolated incident, so that's why we see them burning money in "Love Shot" as well. It's obviously a significant thing within EXO's storyline. We also see that everything in the MV was taking place during an eclipse. The eclipse is what controls EXO's powers and it's where they get their power and strength from. So, that is why we see in most of their MVs that they focus on the moon or show an eclipse taking place, etc. However, you should make note, in "Love Shot" it's not a regular eclipse. We see two moons covering the sun. Which, in the introduction narration in the beginning of their debut "Mama" MV, they point out how EXO comes from a "planet" with two suns. Each sun is part of a parallel universe that is alike and yet different. Therefore, this could be an indication that they aren't on Earth in this MV, or they may be trapped within another dimension. And if they are still trapped within the Red Force's maze, the Red Force could have them in a dream-like state and some of what we see happening could be happening within their minds. Baekhyun is actually one of the main characters in EXO's storyline, so he is often set apart or singled out in EXO's MVs. He is often the one that stands alone or is highlighted in the story. For example, in their "Power" MV Baekhyun is sort of separated from the other members, which seems to suggest maybe Baekhyun is the only member that hasn't been corrupted by the Red Force. So that is thought to be why in "Tempo" and in "Love Shot" we see Baekhyun standing on top of the building looking down on the rest of the members, almost as if he is observing them from another dimension or from another time period. Baekhyun is often the one who is going behind the scenes to help EXO. For example, as we see him disguised as a member of the police as he rescues the other members from the back of the police van in EXO's "Monster" MV, and we see Baekhyun facing off with and confronting Xiumin in "Love Shot." :D We also see scenes in "Love Shot" where the members are sometimes dressed in all black leather and other scenes where we see them dressed in red and black leather, which look very similar to the outfits they were wearing in "Monster." And now that we have discovered that the Red Force has created X-EXO, EXO's evil clones, as part of EXO's "Obsession" MV story, I'm also starting to think that maybe in "Love Shot" we aren't just seeing EXO. I think maybe when we see the members dressed in bright colors -- for example, when they are in their suits -- this might be X-EXO and when we see the scenes where they are in black, this could be EXO. Because in "Obsession" we find out that the members in all black are EXO the good guys, and when we see them in the colorful outfits with the crazy hair and makeup that is X-EXO. This could also explain why Kai is dressed in a red suit. Although I am sure their stylists put him in red because he looks really good in it, I think SM chose it because it's another hidden message within the storyline. Usually, whenever we see red in EXO's MVs this has something to do with the Red Force, so for a long time I have been wondering why then would they put Kai in a red suit? However, now that we know about the X-EXO members, I am starting to think that when we see the members in their colorful suits and clothing in "Love Shot" this is actually the X-EXO members. Therefore, Kai in the red suit could be under the control of the Red Force, as well as the other members when we see them in suits, etc. I also think maybe the members who are collecting all the flowers in "Love Shot" are really X-EXO, as part of some evil plot. If we look at the members' expressions and the outfits they are wearing in the scenes where we see them collecting the flowers, this reminds me a lot of what they looked like in their "Ko Ko Bop" MV. Since "Obsession," theories now think that what the "Ko Ko Bop" MV was showing us was X-EXO right after they were created as they are becoming acclimated to the world and learning how to use their powers, etc. Which would explain why everything in the "Ko Ko Bop" MV is so brightly colored as well. But you should also know that no one really knows for sure what is happening in any of EXO's MVs. There are well known theories and storylines that are accepted within the fandom, which we think might explain what is happening in each MV. And there are theories about how each MV is connected and where each falls within their larger storyline, but nothing is set in stone. Fan theories are constantly evolving and changing with every introduction of a new piece of the puzzle.
❤❤❤Thanks alot and please react to EXO,S winter songs like=Miracle in december, Sing for you ,For life and Universe and Exo,s Live performance.Exo we are one
Hey Guys!
Just wanted to let you know that we had some issues with the audio. There's an echo on the MV sound.
