    Things about Kai dancers, is that he choose them and are the same for every cb. They choose them based in versatility, charisma and technique because they aren't just back up dancers for him, but the complement of every stage.

    Kai's "Rover" lyrics and MV can be interpreted in two ways. One way is that the song talks about Kim JongIn (Kai is his stage name), his life and who he is as an artist and person. The other interpretation I think is meant to tell his EXO character Kai's story and continue EXO's storyline.
    To understand what is happening in Kai's "Rover" MV, you have to first understand EXO's storyline and concept.
    As a member of an SM group, it shouldn't be a surprise that Kai is such a great singer and performer. You can't be an SM artist without having amazing vocals and dance skills. 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 group that is a perfect example of that.
    From day one, EXO's concept is that they are aliens from planet Exo and they came to Earth with superpowers on a mission 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.
    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.
    One of the reasons why "Rover" was chosen for Kai's title song is because the concept of the song and MV was designed with Kai's storyline in mind. To understand why Kai is Mr. Rover, you have to be aware that everything the EXO members do is usually connected to EXO's storyline and concept, even the member's solo projects. Kai's superpower in EXO is the ability to teleport, which is why in the "Rover" MV we see him blink in and out of scenes and at the end he disappears as he dives off the stage, etc.
    The MV is literally showing how he is Mr. Rover -- a rover is someone who roams, travels, wanders all over the place. Kim JongIn was given the stage name Kai because it means opening in Chinese and he is supposed to be the one who opens the doors and travels between time and space and dimensions, etc. to connect all the EXO/SuperM members together, which is why his superpower is teleportation.
    If you notice, at one point in the MV we see Kai's face is bruised up and it looks like he might have been in a fight. Because Kai can teleport and appear at any time and place he wants to, the fight in which he was injured could have happened at any time or place. it doesn't necessarily mean it took place at that exact moment in the "Rover" MV, and it may not even have anything to do with the storyline of "Rover" specifically. For all we know, he is appearing in "Rover" after traveling from another place within EXO's storyline. The fight may have happened in a different location, time or dimension, and it's even thought that EXO -- or specifically Kai -- can time travel to different times and places throughout history. It's probably another one of those scenes that is meant to create connections in EXO's storyline and reference something that has happened, or will happen in the future, in their other MVs.
    In "Rover" we also see him taking on different identities. It depicts the different identities or sides of his personality -- Kai the sexy, over confident on stage personality -- powerful hip-hop dancer -- or Kim JongIn the elegant, ballet dancer, etc.
    As the main dancer of EXO, Kai is literally one of the top two best dancers in Kpop. And that's not just a fan's opinion, but it's a title given to him by his peers and the the industry as a whole. (Taemin from SHINee -- who happens to be Kai's best friend since trainee days, and is a fellow member of SuperM -- is the other top dancer.) There is literally no one better when it comes to dance than Kai and Taemin.
    Kai's love for dance started with jazz and ballet. From a young age, he began training to become a ballet dancer. So he learned form and technique first before any other style of dance. That's why I think you can see such precision in his dancing. As a child, he fell in love with dancing after seeing the Nutcracker and he told his parents that he wanted to do that. So, his whole foundation with dance began with ballet. He says, that if he hadn't been bribed by his father to audition for SM Entertainment, and if he hadn't become a Kpop star, he probably would be a professional ballarino today.
    Kai became a trainee with SM when he was about 12 -- he debuted as a member of EXO when he was around 18 -- so he has been honing his skills and dedicating himself to become one of the best in the industry for years. And now, at 29, he has literally been recognized as one of the best of the best.
    Also as a member of EXO, as part of their storyline, it is thought that the EXO members are supposed to be going about their tasks incognito, which means that in order to keep a low profile Kai probably needs to take on many different identities as he travels across time and space, through different points in history or to different dimensions, etc.
    Fun fact: If you pay attention to some of the names he chooses for his aliases in this MV, one of the names is Elliot Billy, which is pretty clearly a reference to the well known ballet movie Billy Elliot, which Kai has said influenced his love of ballet.
    And of course, the red light is most likely supposed to represent something to do with the Red Force, which is the evil being or group in EXO's storyline who the EXO members are fighting against. Therefore, it is thought either, Kai is being controlled by the Red Force in those scenes, or maybe this whole MV is depicting X-EXO Kai, which is Kai's alter ego clone that has been created by the Red Force.
    Also keep in mind, that in EXO's concept blue is supposed to represent EXO as a way to distinguish between EXO and X-EXO. Things that are blue are thought to symbolize EXO or show when EXO has the upper hand. Therefore, in the scenes where you see blue this could be showing the EXO version of Kai. And in the scenes where we see blue and red together, or purple colors -- blue and red mixed together make purple -- this could be showing how EXO and X-EXO, or EXO and the Red Force, are battling for control or are in conflict, etc.
    Yet again, just another example of how EXO's and SM's Universe is extremely complicated and complex. The thing is, none of us really know exactly what is happening in the story, it's all just fan theories and educated guesses. SM has never confirmed or denied any of our theories and they have left it completely up to fans to figure out what is happening and to create the story. (We only hope that someday SM will release the book or produce a movie that will explain the whole story, so we will know whether any part of our theories were correct.)
    "Rover" is the title track on Kai's third mini album. There are 6 songs on this album. Kai's "Rover" is actually a remix and I think the style can be considered reggaeton based, which is a music genre with reggae and Puerto Rican/Latin influences. If you want a sample of the other songs on this album check out his "Film: Kai #Rover," which, like his previous two albums, is a sample of all the songs on his Rover album. "(In his Rover film you will see other scenes where he looks like he has been in a fight, which could possibly be connected to his "Rover" storyline.)
    Kai is a fashion icon and he is highly sought after by some of he biggest names and brands in fashion to be their model and brand ambassador, etc. Kai had a hand in styling this whole MV. Therefore, I'm sure that everything he wore was expertly selected from some of the top fashion brands. And the MV was specifically styled to represent his designer model status.
    As you can see, he is also considered one of the sexiest Kpop idols, and he is known for his super sexy onstage personality, which is why you often see him shirtless or wearing crop tops when he is performing. However, if you really get to know him, you will see that when not on stage he is almost the complete opposite of what you see here. He is actually soft spoken, cutely innocent and pretty shy in real life.

    all EXO title tracks are always amazing but my favorite overall album from them is Obsession despite some of the member's being in the military when it was released. The title track, Jekyll, Groove, and Trouble are some of my favorite songs of all time! Kai is my favorite EXO soloist but most of the members release really good solo music tbh. My other fave EXO solo songs are Baekhyun's Candy and Bambi and D.O's That's Okay. Honestly EXO are ALMOST as replayed as SHINee for me. (also your caption lol, same) Watch the Jekyll stage mix if you like Kai's abs I mean a great song

      @@BexaReacts Overdose was when I got into EXO, but Call Me Baby is probably their most iconic comeback? That, Monster, or Love Shot. Shinee's been around since 2008 I could go on forever lol. They ALL have solo albums as well. Jonghyun's solo albums are treasures for me, but I'm also obsessed with Onew's Dice and Circle (recent release). As far as Shinee title tracks Ring Ding Dong and Sherlock are literal classics. Sherlock is considered a turning point in kpop choreo everyone says it made the entire industry step up their game lol. I'm really fond of View, Prism, and Don't Call Me. That being said there is no music video for it but the music bank stage for Jonghyun's White T-Shirt solo kills me his live vocals are insane. Also sorry if I went on forever I love SHINee. EXO have stated before the main thing they listen to as a group is SHINee so I know I'm in good company lol.
