Can you imagine that this was their first comeback? I think we all should know now that SM never go safe with their groups lmao. In my opinion, Wolf is still by far the most experimental title track from EXO.
Wolf and Mama are actually 2 of exo’s most hardest songs to perform live bc of how vocal and choreo heavy it is at the same time. Idols have even said they are scared to perform Mama Bc it’s so hard😂
"Wolf" was EXO's first comeback since their debut promotions and it came out in May 2013 as part of their XOXO album. "Wolf" was another one of EXO's songs that the mainstream public thought SM was making an even bigger mistake with. It was a song and concept that was too unique for most mainstream listeners when it first came out, and most people didn't really like the song or the MV. However, as many have discovered, it's one of those songs that once you listen to it more, it grows on you, and now it has become much more popular. So what you see in their "Wolf" MV is that all 12 members come together to form the Tree of Life and in the middle of the song you see how they split up into EXO-K and EXO-M and each group creates their own tree. How I interpenetrate that is they are showing how the tree has now been split in half and each half of the tree represents the two halves of EXO. In the intro to "Mama" they talk about how the Tree of Life has been split in two and each half has been hidden away. It's EXO's job to find the two halves of the Tree of Life and reunite them to restore peace in the world. No, Kai's hair is not really that long. It's hair extensions. It was part of the bad boy wolf/hip-hop theme of this song. (Just like the hair extensions Key wore in SHINee's "Everybody" MV.) Yes, everything on that set says EXO because as a wolf pack, they are supposed to be inside EXO's cave or the pack's den, etc. (Which some theories have pointed to, could be connected to SuperM's "Tiger Inside" MV.) When EXO had 12 members they were both involved in both versions of their MVs. However, the EXO-K members were featured more prominently in the EXO-K versions and they were the ones that sang the main parts of the songs, but if you watch the EXO-M version you will see that the EXO-M members are the ones highlighted in the MV and EXO-M sings the main parts of the song. That is why you need to watch both versions. EXO's slogan is "We are One" which means they are one as a group and one with their fans, so even when they had separate sub-units they were meant to be one group. You should also check out the EXO-M (Mandarin Chinese) version of their "Wolf" MV to see what the song sounds like in Mandarin and to discover how the MV is slightly different. In "Wolf" the members are also supposed to be a wolf pack. So the entire MV and the song is them acting like wolves. The choreography was created to use movements that made them seem like wolves, and the moves, such as them showing their claws and bristling their backs and shaking are all things that wolves do as they compete for power and attention, etc.The wolf comes out of the forest (as he scratches the ground behind the Tree of Life) in the beginning of the MV and he is stalking his prey. Their prey is the girl that, in the song, they are talking about being so obsessed with and in love with that they can't help but act like a wolf and capture her so that no one else can have her, etc. I'm not sure how this concept was supposed to fit into EXO's larger storyline, but many feel that after the 3 Chinese members -- Kris, Luhan and Tao -- left the group that the wolf part of the story was completely dropped and it is no longer part of EXO's story. So we just watch it as a fun side story now instead. In EXO's songs and MVs it is often thought that the girl that EXO sings about is a manifestation of the heart of the Tree of Life. So, that is why EXO becomes so enamored by her and so possessive and protective of her, etc. Protecting the heart of the Tree of Life -- or "the girl" -- is what EXO has been sent to Earth to do. If you look up the lyrics of the song you will see that the lyrics are also about being a wolf. The main point of the song is they are saying, I'm a wolf, I'm a wolf and I love you so fiercely that I am going to capture you and possess you and devour you like the wolf that I am. If you are impressed with their vocals in the MV, just wait until you see the live concert remix performance of the song. You will be even more blown away when you hear what they can do live. "Wolf" and "Growl" are partner songs. "Growl" was the follow up song to "Wolf. ""Growl" was the lead track on the XOXO repackaged album which came out in August 2013. So, now you should check out EXO's "Growl"/"Wolf" Drama video. The drama version combines their two songs "Growl" and "Wolf" and it's like a mini K-drama that is more like a movie or TV show with a complete story and the members playing characters. Here is a link to the full "Growl"/"Wolf" drama version th-cam.com/video/sFCvZUSnuus/w-d-xo.html. It's less then 10 minutes long, but it tells an interesting story. It also might help to explain more of the story in their "Wolf" MV, however, as I said, I'm not sure the story goes any further than being mostly just a fun side story now. in EXO's history of MVs. Fun fact: Kris' eyes turning red will make more sense once you watch the drama version I mentioned above. On top of being aliens -- Kris and Luhan in particular, and maybe Lay -- they also are wolves. Just watch the drama to see what I mean.
I'm really going crazy with the power of the vocals. Why does every group have these vocals and hight note oh my god no one is going to compete with EXO in vocals😭😭😭😭😭😭
Glad you have a positive reaction about this. When I first listen to EXP wolf I hated it but that was before I became a fan. Now I appreciated the song.
At first, it was heavy for me. I was much into call me baby style. But then fell in love with it, then watched all wolf live performances repeatedly(bc of different chores in award shows and I was obsessed with their performances ). It's a song u will fall in love as time goes. Atleast it was like that for me.
I really like the early music of Sm the background music isn’t that loud and complicated and you can hear their vocal so clearly 2013 at that time this is really new in kpop this song and growl open the third generation of kpop really a legend
i was really super into exo before and when this song was released, i did set this as my alarm tone. i wasn't able to go back to sleep again. i mean the intro was.... yeah. i changed my alarm clock ringtone.
Thank you for your reaction. I'm an "EXO-L" in Japan🇯🇵, and love EXO very much. (Especially I love KAI so much💖) I really enjoyed your video very much. One of my favorite songs is "EL DORADO". Please react the live video next time❣️ In addition, I also love a new J-POP boys group named "BE:FIRST" that debuts with "Gifted." on November 3rd. I would be happy if you could also react to the MV "Shining One" that's the pre-debut song, and "Kick Start" that's the coupling song of "Gifted."❣️ Please check them. I'm looking forward to your reaction of them very much！
The subject is that the song is from 2013 and was one of their first songs, but they sang it professionally! This is awesome, no one beats EXO's history in singing
first time i watch this mv i don''t like it cuz its so weird but i start loving WOLF after i watch the remix live concerts version in DOME JAPAN. I'm totally in love with this song haha
I know right!! their mv editings are just wow! Can you react to their live performance in the EXORDIUM concert singing Drop That+Keep On Dancing+Let Out The Beast+Run? This was freaking LIT!
You must look that the song is in 2013 and they were very young but hear their voices!! It's crazy! How can young children sing so powerfully!!! As for a new group and only EXO kids who are born with great voices, it's the truth
No need to brag exo amazing vocals cause it was a public knowledge everyone knows, but in wolf esp i really love the instrument and the beat tho, it remind me the old time when i repeat this downloaded mv all day long, such an adorable memories i have :')
Can you react to Exo at winter Olympics for your next reaction video? :) [Btw Wolf was the song that got me into Exo back then. This song means lot to me.]
How sad that Tao , Kris , & Luhan are not in EXO anymore I miss seeing them with EXO members As for Lay they said his back with EXO so yay but the other 3 *sigh* this brings back memory ,
The stylists during EXO's Wolf era have a LOT to answer for. I have never seen such a complete train wreck. Everyone was styled horribly during this era. Their music show performances and live outfits at the time were HIDEOUS. Poor babies had to sing and dance to this beast of a song, and look like they were blindfolded in a clown closet when selecting their clothes. The song is a bop though. It wasn't my favorite off the bat, and it still isn't, but I can definitely put a ton of respect on EXO's name for having the ability to pull off a number like this when they were literal fetuses.

For rookie idols their vocal power was insane , no one dared to cover this song yet, *EXO is Vocal Legends* in KPOP after all
Fact. The first boy group i stan.
True. This one and Tempo are hard to cover.
Yup
Facts! 🔥
Dance too
