flying apsaras is hands down the most mesmerizing choreography i've ever seen
visually it’s sooo beautiful
honestly no one can execute it like Lay did
I could always pick Lay out in EXO because he is so crisp and precise to watch, and I love that about him. He can do all styles of dance with finesse and excitement. He is creative to the max. I love it when Zin gives reactions, she is so great at describing the moves and pointing out things I never thought of. Thank You Zin and Micah and Lay and your "Lit" dancers.
during EXO performances Lay Kai Xiumin in my eyes really stands out
LAY should get more recognition outside of China coz he is just soooo hardworking and talented!
I agree, but most exols don't even support him 😔
He does very well for himself outside of China. His US and South America fans absolutely love him and his charisma. Only people that don't like and support him sadly are Koreans specifically EXO fans, the racism is real! Best thing he ever did was get the hell out of there. Doesn't need any of that unhuman system of robots!
Oh boy you should definitely show her some of his dance compilations from Street Dance Of China, he was one of the Captains in season 3 and 4
Yes! I need to rewatch SDOC just to see Lay, Yibo and Jackson all in one place
upppp
The lit dance performance was also top tierrr 😭
Lay is going to feed you his skills and culture. Lazy doesn't even exist in his vocabulary, clean indeed. Great reaction guys.
I love how Lay fuses his culture and western culture. The end product is uniquely him and produces something different to experience as a viewer.
The story in Lay's "Flying Apsaras" was inspired by Chinese mythology or folktales. Apsaras are spiritual immortal beings that can fly -- similar to angels -- which are based on Hindu and Buddhist beliefs. Flying apsaras are most often found in hieroglyph images as part of ancient Chinese cave murals. So, a lot of the pictures you see them making in this dance are designed to look like the images of the flying apsaras from those drawings.
Lay is an ambassador for China, so one of his goals is to share Chinese culture with the world. One way he is doing this is by creating his own style of music, which he has labeled M-pop. M-Pop stands for Mixed-pop, which means he mixes traditional Chinese elements and sounds with mainstream pop and hip-hop beats and styles -- combining old school Chinese culture with new modern hip-hop and contemporary beats and styles.
The choreography has also been designed to highlight Chinese culture by using a lot of traditionally Chinese dance moves and styles. The choreographer that Lay worked with was Huang Xiao who is a member of his team from the dance competition show that Lay was a team captain on last year called Street Dance of China season 4, and the other dancers are all members of Huang Xiao's Hello Dance crew.
Lay is a singer, rapper, songwriter, composer, producer actor, director, editor, dancer, designer, etc. -- genius -- and with every new release of his, he just one ups himself. When it comes to Lay's solo work, he does it all -- he writes, composes and produces the songs (including the rap sections), he even creates all his own beats, he has a large part in creating the choreography and he has a hand in coming up with and directing the MVs. It is also all financed by him. He even owns his own production company called Zhangyixing Studios, which is named after Lay. (Zhang Yixing is Lay's real name. Lay is a stage name given to him by SM Entertainment.)
As you might know, Lay is the Chinese member of EXO and he was originally meant to fill the same role in EXO-M -- the Mandarin Chinese sub-unit of EXO -- that Kai fills in EXO-K -- the Korean sub-unit of EXO. Kai is one of the top two BEST dancers in Korea (Taemin from SHINee being the other top dancer) and Lay is one of the top dancers in China.
Lay's catchphrase is "Balance," which means that when it comes to choreography and synchronization it has to have balance. If it's not balanced then it's not good. Therefore, his attention to detail when he creates music and choreography is on point.
He is so highly respected within the Chinese music and dance community that he is considered an authority figure. He has even started his own Idol trainee company in China -- with SM's blessing -- called Chromosome where he plans to use his talents to influence the world entertainment industry and to pass his skills and knowledge on to the next generation. (And he's not just head of the company in name alone, he is super hands-on in everything he does.)
He is regarded as an expert at so many different things because when he decides to do something he becomes hyper focused with the goal of being the best at it. Like all of SM's top dancers, Lay is super dedicated when it comes to dance and music. He literally spends 6 hours every day in the dance studio practicing, regardless of how busy his schedule is. Some of his favorite sayings are "Try hard, work harder" and "Talent is only 1% of what you need to succeed, hard work, dedication and a grateful/humble heart is what makes up the other 99%."
Lay is a perfectionist and he is never satisfied unless everything exceeds his expectations, which is why he only released a short 40 second visualizer using a few clips from what was going to be the MV, and we don't have a full MV for "Flying Apsaras" yet. He wasn't happy with the final product. This is also why Lay is involved in all aspects of his music. He takes pride in the fact that all parts of his work are done by him, so he wants it to be extremely high quality because it's his reputation that's on the line if things aren't up to his standard.
Thank you so much for such a detailed description of Lay’s personal experience and his work, especially his style! It was not easy because he is so versatile, but you did it and you are really great!
THANKS SO MUCH FOR WRITING ALL OF THIS, I wanted to know more about lay as I’ve fallen in love with his craft and skills of dancing. He is out of this world amazing and I’m glad to have found out more of these things that you’ve wrote about him 👍
Yes, you're right. It is a little bit of south asian influence. Apsara means angels in Hindu muythology and believe it or not, Lay has starred in an Indo-Chinese movie before. Lay will always stand out to me as one of the best artists to ever come out of the Kpop industry. The way he can sing, rap, DANCE and produce, he's one of a kind.
In fact, the music and dance of the Flying Apsara is derived from ancient Chinese Buddhist legends, and many of the movements and gestures in the choreography come from the images of the murals in the Mogao Caves at Dunhuang, located on the Silk Road (the ancient route of Chinese commerce to foreign countries) in western part of China. To this day, there is still a traditional dance in China that draws on these images and movements, and even the costumes mimic the images on the murals. Lay combines this traditional Chinese dance with modern hip hop dance , and incorporates traditional instruments from western part of China into modern hip hop music, which is very innovative and attention-grabbing.
I was looking for Lay reactions last night and this just dropped omg! She'd get surprised if he sees Lay in street dance of china
He's hands down one of the best dancers I've ever seen crisp and clean!!
He is a genius when it comes to dancing
Yes, manifesting for an OT9 comeback soon! 🙏
I was waiting for her reaction to Lay! Thank you for sharing!
even if he suffers from Hymophilia it does not stop him from working harder again and again 💖
Hymophilia?? What is that?
@@LisaMT1218 i mean Hemophilia, it is a constitutional abnormality of blood coagulation linked to a deficiency of one of the coagulation factors.
I have been dying to see her reaction to Lay. I hope you can show more of his work. Lay left SM Entertainment so not sure if we see a lot of him with EXO. I hope so I found and fell in love with EXO through Lay.
Ofc. If there's group activities, they'll try to include him. His relationship with SM is actually doing really great now. The problem is not him leaving SM. The problem is him being the biggest star in China. Makes it very hard for him to join the rest due politics & tension.
Zin finally gets to watch Lay! She should watch Street Dancer China. She would like it. There is a performance video for Flying. It was done for a holiday.
Namanana and Lit dance practices are amazing too. Thanks for reacting to Lay.
lay is perfect...this man can do every dance form
I like that he respectfully displayed movements from another culture without making their movements a caricature of that region's traditional dance. A lot of the movements are derived from Indian Classical Dance. The word apsaras itself is a reference to Hinduism.
Ahhhh nice!
always enjoy seeing this girl react to stuff. she's such a sweetie pie!
Surprised you didn't include LIT.
I would definitely love to see Merv's take on Lay as well with the Krumping. And I agree with Zin about how smooth the isolations are.
Ugh he's so cool, loved the reaction!!
I love this man so much. He was my first bias in my first and forever ult group (EXO, of course). I was pretty heartbroken when he stopped being able to perform with the group but now I’m just glad that he’s been free to express his creativity his own way. Also, he’s hysterically funny without really trying to be.
Thank you for reacting to Lay! ❤
I am very happy for your reactions and for the recognition you give to the enormous talent that EXO members have... and I would be very grateful if you react about GIVE ME A CHANCE, one of Lay Yixing's first songs as a solo artist. Kind regards. By the way, I love your channel!
Thank You so much guys! ~♡˖
lay is amazing
she needs to watch the namanana dance practiceee
Veil definitely gives me a lot of south asian/Indian vibes too, i even thought the dancers were wearing lehengas, but I don't know maybe china and india has traditionnal clothes that look the same ? Anyway Lay aways kills the choreos 💯
Lay is a krumper.. it is his speciality
That's my KING right there! 🔥
Amazing Lay❤EXO❤
I always impressed by Lay Zhang Yixing's stage performances and his mv
The word is BALANCE
I get a little bit of a G Dragon vibe from him. He is so fun to watch! Love his style, would like to see Lay and Ten do a collab!
He is a wonderful dancer.
Thanks for pointing out the fact that he stays pretty much in the center. I just noticed because of your comment. I think it has to do with symmetry. I have a feeling that Lay and the choreographers he works with like symmetry and balance. Reflecting further on it, it has a lot to do with Asian culture. The pictures also reflect inspiration from architectural designs of the culture. Very fun.
Lay is super amazing and super talented! He impressed me ecery time, non stop!
Talking about LAY YIXING is talking about great talent, great dedication, a lot of effort and professionalism, of a hard work on and out of stage... He is, has been and will be an irreplaceable and incomparable part of the wonderful and incredible #AsianLegend called #EXO...
#LAY #YIXING, a dancer out of the ordinary, pure technique just like EXO's #SEHUN whose movements are precise and fluid making them flow smoothly to the rhythm of the music... passion is from #KAI, forming an outstanding #danceline... Total Chemistry.

Loved this, as always! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You have to do Lit if you're going to to Lay!!!! The MV is one of the best ever made and the dance practice is amazing too!
Laaaaay ❤
Просто у него есть баланс🤣🤌🏻
Thank you so much for this reaction. Lay is one of my ult bias in EXO. He was a team Captain in "Street dancer of China" season three & Four☺
Please can you react to EXO-CBX "Blooming Day" dance practice. Baekhyun, Chen and Xumin are the members of EXO-CBX. Its choreography is so nice. I'm sure you would like it.

Reaction for lay exo new song D.N.A cypher please..Thanks you
If she wants to see him move around more, then she should check out EXO performances. Here because he's the main artist, he's always centered but in EXO he's weaving all over the place
React to btbt by b.i. please
They reacted to it last week
@Koko3op Lay's contract with SM ended in 2022. So I don't think he is a member of EXO anymore. (Edit: I have been corrected. 😆)
He still member of EXO but he wasn't under SM entertainment again.
@@NurAzizah-hc6il Ok, thanks! I wasn't sure if he was or not.
Sorry for saying this but it's facts no America or none Asian dancer is even competing with Lay JUST saying 🤷 there's only one who can match him and he's also a kpop idol Choi San From Ateez
React to The truth untold by bts please
Lay left EXO just an update so you won't see him in EXOs comeback.
