Confused, overwhelmed vibing.
Confused and overwhelmed... But vibing! 😅 That was a trip down time y'all! Any EXO-L that been here since these days? Show yourselves and enjoy the video!
I am an EXO-L since they were announced. And I still have the same ultimate bias. I am a very loyal.
Maybe you should do something for Chanyeol's birthday. Is the 27. Maybe watch some of his solo? Tomorrow, nothin' (the mv is short and it doesn't have his solo guitar so check maybe a lyric video for it) or break your box?
exo had 12 members when they were here. so the first music video also features kris, Luhan and Tao. The member you asked if it was suho or sehun was Kris.
been following them since they were being teased by SM and it’s been so long I can hardly believe it, their journey so far has been a wild ride and I’m with them through and through while they keep getting better and better
@@kylab3994 Exotics forever
What is love was my first exo song I listen and I become exo-l and beakhyun become my ult bias I always got goosebumps last part of beakhyun. And this song sang only beakhyun and D.O, Beakhyun and D.O are great together. They sing Others song together moonlight one of my favorite song 💕
Same here💜
EXO was legendary even before debut and are legendary even after debut. This group has it all. I've been a fan of them ever since EXO was announced and I've been in love with them ever since and never once been disappointed. I'm looking forward to your EXO journey as well.
Me too. We are exotics. Lol.
@@ChanyeolsHaneul wow ikr, nice to hear that. I've been following K-pop and it's safe to say EXO is the best there is in the business. It's great being an EXOL
@@CM-wr6pz I fully agree
What is Love Still my favorite one among other my favorite exo's songs, it's so calming just hearing the main vocals 😄
What is love will forever hold a special place in my heart. My first EXO song. Baekhyun is insane for singing that pre debut. He’s my only and ultimate bias in the whole entire world. Kyungsoo’s vocal is freaking lit too. Their caliber is unmatched. They’re definitely kings of vocal no doubt. These songs are freaking their first and what a talent there already. EXO is a group of greatest vocals, insane visuals, excellent dancers and performers. My only Stan in Kpop. My EXO is the best.
BAEKHYUN trained just months before debuting and right away as main vocal and sang What is love like that. Plssss he is insane
He was that much great that time and now he is like untouchable
EXO's "History" MV is supposed to be an introduction for EXO and it was meant to begin to establish their storyline and concept as a group.
Exo, as in exoskeleton, means "outer," so as a member of EXO they are outside the ordinary.The group's concept comes from the real term exoplanet, which is a term that is used for a planet that is outside our solar system, so their name was chosen to represent the fact that they are stars that are "out of this world" when it comes to their talents. SM Entertainment has all of EXO's release dates and concepts planned out for years in advance, and it's all designed to connect as part of SM's Universe.
So to understand their "History" MV, here is what you need to know: As aliens from Planet Exo, the members are about to be sent to Earth on a mission. "History" is thought to be about how EXO are still on Planet Exo and they are preparing to be sent to Earth. So that is why it has a very futuristic look and feel to it. There isn't a whole lot of story because it is a pre-debut MV so this was meant to just introduce the members and establish their concept.
"History" is EXO's second pre-debut track. It was released in 2012 -- about 2 months after their first pre-debut song and MV "What is Love," and about 2 months before "Mama," which is EXO's official debut -- so this is more than 9 years ago. "History" is the introduction of the storyline and it explains what led up to the events in "Mama."
In the EXO-K version of "History" you only saw the EXO-K (Korean) members -- Kai, D.O, Suho, Sehun, Baekhyun and Chanyeol -- singing, and in the middle of the song you see them flash to the EXO-M (Chinese) members -- Lay, Kris, Chen, Luhan, Xiumin and Tao -- however, if you watch the EXO-M version you will see that the EXO-M members are the main characters in the story and they only show the EXO-K members briefly. This establishes how the two groups are separate and yet still are all part of one group as EXO. Both versions of their MVs may look the same on the surface, but the story is slightly different because it is being told from a different angle or different perspective in each version.
Fun fact: if you compare the English translation of the Korean and Mandarin lyrics, you will see that the songs are slightly different. Because, as the intro to "Mama" points out, the two halves of EXO stand on the same ground and see different things and they stand on different grounds and see the same thing -- they are separate groups and yet they become one, etc. Hence, their songs and story are the same and yet different.
As an SM Entertainment group, it shouldn't be a surprise that EXO are amazing vocalists. 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 vocal and/or dance skills, and even the rappers get intense training as vocalists. None of SM's rappers became a trainee because of their rap skills, all of the company's rappers learned to rap, or really became good at it, only after joining the company. That is why SM is known as the vocal powerhouse of the industry because they put a huge emphasis on showcasing outstanding vocal talent. And EXO is a perfect example of that.
To understand the story in their "History" MV this is one time where it is helpful to look up the English translation of the lyrics. The song is called "History" and in the lyrics they talk about making history. It's about failing at something and trying again to make it right. So, the theory is that in this part of the story EXO made some sort of unknown "big mistake" on their planet, so they have been sent to Earth to try and right their wrongs by trying to prevent the Red Force from causing a "big mistake" or prevent humanity from allowing a "big mistake" to happen on Earth. They are trying to prevent "History" from repeating itself. And they want to make "History" here on Earth. It establishes the whole reason why EXO are fighting against the Red Force and why they need to find the Tree of Life and restore peace. They can't let whatever happened on their planet happen again on Earth, etc.
The part of the dance where they put their hands in their pockets and shake their pants, I interpret as the nervousness and uncertainty that they are feeling as they are about to embark on this new journey as they prepare to go to Earth and also as a representation of the nerves and excitement they are feeling as they are about to debut. As you can see, even the choreography is designed to tell the story.
However, just so you know, we didn't fully understand that was what the MV and song was trying to tell us, until several years later, after we had more context to go on after we had several other MV stories and more information. But that is why we say, if you want to try and follow EXO's story you have to pay attention to everything and you have to remember as much detail as you can about everything you have ever seen and heard from EXO. Because although you might think you understand one piece of EXO's story, with every new release from EXO, we get a little more information, and, sometimes it helps to confirm what we thought to be true and sometimes it turns the whole theory on its head and makes us realize what was happening wasn't what we thought after all.
What complicates this even more is the fact that almost nothing in their storyline is in chronological order, so we EXO-Ls (EXO fans) have to become detectives and analyze every aspect of everything any of the members are involved in to try and piece it all together and figure out where each part fits within their larger storyline. And I literally mean everything, from their teaser videos, to their MVs, to their song lyrics and live performances, concert VCRs (videos played in between sets at their concerts) and even some of their choreography, as well as their sub-unit and solo work. Everything EXO does is connected.
And now that story has branched out even further to include all of SM Entertainment's groups and artists storylines. Everything that SM Entertainment produces is all part of one giant story, like a giant graphic novel or mystery movie series, and it's all connected to the SM universe storyline, that all started with EXO in 2012. Each new MV or project is another chapter in the story, and it's up to us fans to figure out where it all fits in the larger storyline.
To see their dancing better, if you haven't already, check out the dance practice for "History," the choreography is very unique. They have an EXO-K dance practice and an EXO-M dance practice. And it's one of their few choreographies where the two groups are not combined because they were completely separate groups in this MV.
I really love all of their voice but d.o is really something that i want to hear his voice everyday 😍
"What is Love" actually features the 4 main vocalists of EXO, so, in the EXO-K (Korean) version you only hear D.O.'s and Baekhyun's voices, but when you watch the EXO-M (Mandarin) version you will see Chen and Luhan as the singers. These are the main vocalists from their respective groups. However, in the MV you see most of the members. The rest of the members aren't singing the song, but they are helping to tell a story.
This was their very first pre-debut MV -- about 3 or 4 months before "Mama" -- so it is setting up EXO's storyline and it's showing the members. This was before most people really even knew who EXO were. EXO's second MV, was "History" and it was also a pre-debut song. "History" came out about 2 months after "What is Love."
Although the members are young here, they aren't that young. The oldest member Xiumin was 22 and the youngest members Kai and Sehun are 18. Baekhyun became a trainee later then many trainees -- he was already 20 -- and he only trained for 3 months before EXO's debut.
If you think D.O.'s and Baekhyun's version was amazing, just imagine what Chen's and Luhan's version is like. It has a slightly different feel because it has a sound and style that is designed to appeal more to a Chinese audience, but it's no less amazing. There's a reason why EXO has 3/4 main vocalists.
Now to explain the story in the "What is Love" MV: As you may have noticed, you see an eclipse is happening. The eclipse is what controls EXO's powers and it's where they get their power and strength from. So, that is why you see in most of their MVs that they focus on the moon or show an eclipse taking place, etc. EXO are aliens so staring at an eclipse or the sun doesn't affect them in the same way. After all, they come from Planet Exo, which has two suns. LOL
In the scenes were you see D.O and Baekhyun singing that is thought to be showing clues to EXO's storyline, such as the light that is streaming through the holes in the walls is thought to be representing Baekhyun's superpower which is the ability to control light, and the fact that the room they are in is kind of disheveled could be after D.O. used his power of force. You also see scenes such as Chanyeol (a member of EXO-K) looking at a drawing of a unicorn and comparing it to a hieroglyph of a unicorn on a piece of rock which is thought to be something to do with the fact that he is searching for Lay (an EXO-M member). Lay's symbol is a unicorn which represents his power of healing.
In the MV for "What Is Love," you see clips from some of their pre-debut teaser videos. All the clips in the MV are special clips that were originally released one at a time on their own to introduce EXO to the world, before the group's official debut. Before EXO debuted, SM released 23 teaser videos over a 3 month period and the videos showcased the members and their talents, such as Kai's special dances and Tao's martial arts skills, as well as told a story about EXO who are on a quest to find each other and to find clues to locate the Tree of Life, etc. Kai was the member that was featured in the most teasers -- somewhere around 10 videos. The "What is Love" MV takes clips from those teaser videos and puts them together to make the MV.
Months and years later, we have also discovered that the teasers also were teasers to EXO's discography of songs. At the time, when the teasers were released, we had no idea the significance of the songs that you hear in the teasers. But now, over the years, we have discovered that the majority of the songs that were featured in EXO's pre-debut teasers were also meant to be teasers to songs that would be released as some of the main tracks of EXO's albums.
All the teasers are still on SM's TH-cam channel if you want to check them out. If you watch the teasers, you will see how planned out everything EXO is involved in actually is. Most of the songs that they released even years after debut were songs that were teased to in their pre-debut teaser videos even before fans knew who EXO was. That just goes to show you why we say that everything EXO does comes back to their storyline. :D Absolutely everything has been planned out down to the most minute detail for years in advance and for years to come.
However, not all of the songs you hear in the teasers were songs that made it to the albums, or maybe they are songs that haven't been released yet. There are several songs in the teasers that we still don't know. Maybe they are songs that have not been released yet, or maybe they may never exist as a full song. It's another part of EXO's mystery that we are waiting to discover.
So, if you want to follow EXO's story, you have to watch both "What is Love" MVs to see the different clips and try and figure out the story it is trying to tell. EXO's MVs may look similar, but in each version there are hidden messages and Easter eggs that SM puts in each MV that tell a little more of the story, even still today. Plus, in the Korean version they highlight the EXO-K members, where in the Mandarin version they highlight the EXO-M members. It's a common misconception that just because EXO's 2 MVs look similar on the surface that you don't need to watch both versions, but if you skip the Mandarin version of EXO's MVs -- especially these early MVs when they were still a full group -- I guarantee you are going to miss a key part of their story. Plus, you miss out on hearing the EXO-M members and what the song sounds like in Mandarin.
Something you should also know is that, the EXO-M or Mandarin MVs are just as an important part of EXO's storyline as the Korean version. They actually shot two separate MVs for each version, so the parts that look the same were deliberately made to look the same and there are almost always subtle differences in both versions because it is telling the story from a different angle or from the other group's perspective.
Not enough people give EXO-M credit. There is no reason why the EXO-M version of EXO's songs should have about half as many views, and yet they do. I encourage you to take the time to also check out the EXO-M Mandarin version of this song, even if you don't react to it, it will help you to understand EXO a little better.
In what is love is only D.O and baekhyun singing, but in this song they introduced all the members from exo k and from exo m, and exo mama shows the beginning of exo storyline and showcase their super powers
BtoB debuted also in 2012. Vixx and BAP debuted the same year as well. I am a 2012 fan. The best 4 groups debuted that year. Also Girls Generation TTS subunit debuted in 2012. And exo members were in their mv for Twinkle. And Chanyeol appeared in GG Genie Japanese version.
13:55>> "What is love?" has only two version.
EXO-K (Korean version) is sang only by Baekhyun and D.O. who are the main vocals in EXO-K.
EXO-M (Mandarin version) is sang only be Chen and Luhan who are the main vocals in EXO-M.
This is the vocal showcase of the min vocals of EXO even though it is the pre-debut.
SM is doing a remastering of old songs and there is a possibility that Mama will be remastered. It would be epic to see her in 4k.
You like aespa. If you watch mama again see how the butterfly 🦋 appears in mama intro, and in many other mvs from sm groups all towards aespa. The concept of exo started to be designed in the 70s.
Mama means "majesty" and the lyrics also explain some of the concept.
In other mvs you can see them using their powers like in Obsession, lucky one. In others is very subtle. But all mvs are connected somehow.
I BECAME EXOL WITH THESE SONGS:) SO UNIQUE
In mama mini album there is a song "two moons" which the Rappers sing it. For exo K is Chanyeol, Kai and Sehun. And Key from shinee.
So the songs are mama (debut song)
History ( pre debut)
What is love ( pre debut)
Angel
Two moons
Machine.
Until Lotto ( exac't repackaged album "monster" and Lucky one album) and Universe ( the last winter album after kokobop album) they still got songs that only the main vocalists sing. Sometimes is main vocalists + chanyeol. Or in the case of exo K also Suho is counted as main vocalist. For example "Baby don't cry" the K version is sang just by D.O, BaekHyun, Suho and Chanyeol.
What is love was made ( a part from the parts were BaekHyun and D.O sing) by their individual teasers.
It's only d.o and baekhyun sang what is love music video and the reason why only the two of them sang it's because the song introduce the two main vocalist of exo k.
Yup, EXO had always been incredibly amazing since pre-debut!! Their concept is also mind-blowing and really beyond it's time! What is Love perfectly displayed the BaekSoo's vocal prowess. If you could, please react also to its newer version, Tell Me What is Love, by D.O.
what is love is the song that made me become exol until now
What is love is more of an introduction for the main vocalist of each unit, beakhyun and D.O. for ExoK and Chen and Luhan for ExoM, the rest of members had more spotlight and were introduced on the debut teasers (what is love is directly connected to those) it would be amazing if you react to the teasers too!!!
Always go back and watch some of EXO beginnings to get revved up again to understand why I'm still an EXO fan after all these years..I mean all three songs are great but MAMA is EPIC, EPIC, EPIC. Nobody sounded like them back then in Kpop and 10 yrs later, it still remains true. Thanks for the throwback!
EXO, all member are vocal, vocal, vocal. 👍👍👍💝💝💝
In order to really see the full story you actually have to also watch the EXO-M version of "Mama." The whole point of both the EXO-K and EXO-M versions of their songs and each MV is to introduce you to EXO's concept and storyline. If you only watch EXO-K, you only see half the story. "Mama" is like the first episode of EXO's drama -- it sets up everything to come in the rest of the series. And if you miss any part of the first episode you will forever be lost when it comes to the rest of EXO's story.
So, in other words, you HAVE to watch the EXO-M version of "Mama." If you watch both versions of their "Mama" MV, you might be able to understand a little more about EXO's mission and everything they have been sent to Earth to do. Because in the EXO-K version the whole story focuses on the K members, but in the M version it will show you the M members and explain their powers and each of their roles in the story.
The M version will feature the EXO-M members and they will be the ones singing the main parts of the song. You only see small clips of the M members in the Korean version. But in the Chinese version the story continues, and the EXO-M members are the ones that are highlighted. You have to see both MVs to understand the full story.
In Korean Mama is a term they use to address a leader or king or queen. It's a term of reverence and respect. It's similar to saying "Your majesty." If you watch very many historical Korean dramas you will hear the characters call the royal family, and especially the head of the royal family or leader, "Mama." So, in this song, they are speaking to the leader or deity who sent them to Earth, essentially asking, "Now that I'm here, Your Majesty what should I do? How do I fulfill what you have sent me to do?" etc.
It's very important that you pay attention to the introduction story in "Mama" because it is literally setting up EXO's storyline. The narrator is telling you EXO's whole origin story, about how EXO have been split up into two groups EXO-K and EXO-M and they are part of the same group and yet separate -- part of two worlds that come together as one, etc. And he is telling you about how the Tree of Life has been split in half to protect it from falling into the Red Forces' control -- each half of the tree representing one half of EXO (EXO-K and EXO-M) -- and EXO's mission is to find the two halves of the tree and reunite them to restore peace in the world.
In the EXO-K version of "Mama" the members are using their powers to search for and meet up with the EXO-M members. That is why you see the K members traveling to find the M member. For example, you see Kai using his power of teleportation as he searches for the M members. And, because Xiumin is a member of EXO-M, you see him appear in the mirror because the K members are searching for him and he is being summoned, etc. As the story goes, when EXO arrived on Earth they did not all arrive together. Their story starts out that they were dropped on Earth in different locations all over the world and they have to search for each other and meet up, kind of like in a quest, before they can begin to figure out how to accomplish the tasks they have been sent to Earth to do.
When you see the members all together in their "Mama" MVs they are together because they are still on Planet Exo where they are still united. But when you see them separated this is when they have all been sent to Earth.They keep flashing back and forth between present moments and recent past moments. So, how I interpret the story is that at the end they aren't back together yet, but that is a scene from when they were still on Planet Exo as they are preparing to be sent to Earth.
The two worlds the narrator talks about in the introduction could possibly be different dimensions, so you often see parts of their story which could be interpreted as them being in different dimensions or time periods or different moments in history.
Each of the members in EXO-K has a counterpart in EXO-M, so part of what you were seeing in this MV was them showing you which EXO-K member corresponded with which EXO-M member. For example, Suho (EXO-K) with the power of water corresponds with Xiumin (EXO-M) who has the power of frost/ice. Chanyeol (EXO-K) with the power of fire is Kris' (EXO-M) counterpart because he is the power of flight, and as you will see when you watch the EXO-M MV, Chanyeol has the power of the phoenix and Kris has the power of the dragon, which both animal spirits have fire elements and flight so they connect. D.O. (EXO-K) with the power of force is connected to Chen (EXO-M) with the power of thunder/lightning. And Sehun (EXO-K), who has the power of wind, is connected to Tao (EXO-M) who controls time. Baekhyun (K) with the power of light is connected to Lay (M) with the power of healing; and Kai (K) with teleportation is linked to Luhan (M) with the power of telekinesis, etc. That's how they maintain their bond even as members of separate groups.
Also, the symbols you saw represent each of the members and it has to do with each of their powers. For instance, Kai's symbol is a pyramid and it represents teleportation, and Lay's symbol is a unicorn and it represents his power of healing, etc. (In future MVs and other things to do with EXO, when you see things like a pyramid, you know that is a reference to something to do with Kai, etc.) Even the most minute of details in EXO's content has something to do with their origin story and EXO's storyline.
And, yes, during that screamo part, that was Kai. All the tattoos on Kai's face and body say EXO and also all of the EXO members names, or at least the 6 EXO-K members names, as well as EXO's symbol and other hidden clues to EXO's origin story.
Each member in EXO-K also has a partner in EXO-M that fills the same role in their respective group. For example, Baekhyun is the main vocalist in EXO-K and Chen is the main vocalist in EXO-M; D.O. is the other main vocalist in K and Luhan was the other main vocalist in M; Chanyeol is the main rapper in K and Kris was the main rapper in M; Sehun is the lead rapper in K and Xiumin is the lead rapper in M; Kai is the main dancer in K and Lay is the main dancer in M; and then it's Suho is a lead vocalist in K and Tao was a rapper/vocalist in M (I'm not sure how these two really work together because Tao is more of a rapper and Suho is a vocalist, but because they are the last two they are put together.)
You also need to pay attention to the lyrics for "Mama." The majority of the gregorian chant is in English: "Shoot anonymous, anonymous; Heartless, mindless; No one who care about me ... Careless, careless (Mama: Mama in Korean means Your Majesty); Shoot anonymous, anonymous (Mama); Heartless, mindless (Mama); No one who care about me (Mama)" Also, if you pay attention to what the whole song is talking about and what the lyrics mean it will give you even more insight into why EXO have been sent to Earth and what their mission is all about.
EXO's storyline begins with them being sent to Earth to try and heal the world and to stop and prevent the Red Force from taking over and corrupting everything. And the story in the lyrics of "Mama" foreshadows what they will have to overcome and understand about humans and our world to accomplish their tasks. EXO kind of takes humanity to task and asks us to explain why we would allow all this anger and hatred to cloud everything around us and why we don't love each other more? It's really a very beautiful message and the more you learn about EXO the more interesting the whole thing becomes.
In the song the members, being aliens from another planet, are struggling to understand how we as humans could allow all this evil and bad things to happen all around us, such as war, hatred and the destruction of the environment, etc. and they are daunted by the fact that they are now tasked with figuring out how to fix it all and prevent more evil from taking place. That's why they need to find the two halves of the Tree of Life and reunite them to restore peace.
EXO's story is part supernatural and Sci-Fi and part based on reality, which touches on real life events and things that are really happening in the world. And from the very beginning, even during pre-debut days, and everything since then and everything yet to come, it all is connected to that storyline.
Everything EXO does and everything you see from them, including Baekhyun's and Kai's parts in SuperM, all has something to do with the concept and story that began with "Mama," and each new installment of something from the members expands a little further on EXO's story. Whether it's an MV from the group, a solo project from one of the members, a sub-unit project, a live performance, teaser videos, concert VCRs, or even a good amount of their choreography, it all has been designed to connect to EXO's storyline.
To see a list of the members roles within the group and what their superpowers are, please see the reply attached to this comment.
To help you pinpoint the powers being used in their 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 that have since left the group, but are still important to 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.)
Thankyou for your reaction ❤
These songs are timeless masterpieces and I will never forgive my co-Ls for sleeping on them.
Hi, the exo subunits are not like NCT's. In the videos of Exo K and Exo M all the members appeared, the difference is in the language K (Korean) M (Mandarin) and in that the main vocalists alternated by language. All the members were at the concerts, they all participated in the choreography. It is a mistake to consider EXO K and EXO M as two independent units because the songs are the same.
I've been listening to Kpop for over 15 years so I was present at EXO's debut.
Seriously in all the years I have been into kpop I couldn't find a debut song more epic and significant, MAMA, from the storyline of both M and K versions, the music video, and *the lyrics* are just amazing and timeless, I'd love if you read them if you have time, even the screamo part shows the desperation expressed on the lyrics, Mama explains how Exo are aliens that come to a warful earth to teach people to love one to another again
yess i missed your exo reaction video
Pro tip: If looking for music videos pre-2016 or so, you can always type in "title of song + eng subs" in TH-cam. Surely, someone reuploaded the video with fanmade subtitles. It was a thing back then before the record labels started having captions in their music videos.
Here is What is Love subtitled: th-cam.com/video/4PQQBVnmHVQ/w-d-xo.html
SM ENTERTAINMENT = CONCEPT KING
It is kai screaming, but the hight note is D.O's.
What Is Love supremacy !!!
