REASONS
WHY I ADORE EXO
└──────────────────┘
Exo
(Korean: 엑소; stylized as EXO) is a South Korean–Chinese
boy band based in Seoul, with nine members: Xiumin, Suho, Lay, Baekhyun, Chen,
Chanyeol, D.O., Kai and Sehun. The band was formed by SM Entertainment in 2011 and debuted in 2012.
Their music incorporates genres like pop, hip-hop, and R&B, alongside
electronic dance music genres like house, trap, and synth-pop. Exo releases and performs music
in Korean, Mandarin, and Japanese. The band ranked as one of the
top five most influential celebrities on the Forbes Korea Power Celebrity list
each year from 2014 to 2018, and have been named "the biggest boy band in
the world" and the "kings of K-pop" by the media.
Some people once
asked me: “Why do you love them so
much? They’re just a bunch of dancing Korean dudes." They pointed at a
picture of EXO and they told me that. Normally, I would take my time and
explain to them how EXO are not just ‘a bunch of dancing Korean dudes’, but
because they’re not me, nor EXO, I wont bother to waste my breath.
My dedicating
love for not only EXO but for Kpop has questioned many people around me, and so
I would like to take up a few lines to tell them why EXO is not just 'a bunch
of dancing Korean dudes’.

artist. They are all special in their own way.

2. They have lots of GREAT SONGS and They are so VERSATILE
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
EXO has lots of
great songs. Most of their non-tittle tracks are actually very nice but
underrated. Another thing is EXO can do almost all genre. They do pop, R&B,
ballad, dance, electronic, rock, hip hop, just name it. To put it in a
nutshell, just check out all EXO albums. From slow sad songs to upbeat songs,
they have it all!
EXO never stick to one genre and one
concept. They will try new things in every comeback. They change their genre
and style so that people won't get bored of them.
There's reasons why EXO albums always reach
more than a million sales. One of the reason is because their songs are always
great and nice.

3. They always TRY NEW THINGS
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
EXO can do almost everything. Not only sing
and dance, there's lots of other things that EXO can do as well.
→ Sing, rap, dance (obviously)
→ Act (movie, drama, web drama)
→ Modelling
→ Compose and write songs
→ MCing/ Hosting
→ Beatbox [EXO Beatbox Compilation]
→ Play musical instruments
→ Sports (Bowling, golf, snooker, hapkido,
taekwando, kendo)
→ Sing in different genres. Just give them
any song, and they will slay.
They are not afraid of trying new things.
They are taking high risk because some people might hate their new concept. But
guess what?
If
you never try new things, you'll never learn.

4.
Their AMAZING CONCERTS
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
EXO concerts are always so fun and lit af.
That's why their concert's tickets often sold out in just a few seconds. EXO
didn't won best concert for nothing.
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
5.
They are VERY HARD WORKING
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
They often fall sick and gets injured
because they work too hard. Sometimes they even stay up late just to write
songs and to practice their dances.
EXO always push themselves and work harder
although they're actually good enough.
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
6.
They are KIND, POLITE and HUMBLE
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
EXO is the group that;
→ Often does charity
→ Give huge donations and full support to
any charity project.
→ Never forget to say thank you and bow to
the staffs after finish their work.
→ Did 90° bow to the fans at the end of
music awards.
→ Always smile and greet people no matter
who it is.
→ The profits that they received from the
winter album is donated to charities.
And now EXO donates part of their album
sales to UNICEF to help children in need.
Lots of people who know EXO say that EXO
is a very humble group. Indeed, they're very kind and humble. They never stop
doing charities and helping people. Never stop being kind and polite. Although
they're popular now, they still act the same way like when they were not
popular.
Popularity and fame never change them.
That's why I love these boys so much.
❝ All
these awards doesn't matter,
we
are here to see EXO-Ls and let them know that we are here. ❞

7.
Their FRIENDSHIPS
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
EXO members are
not just friends. They are brothers. After all the hardships that they've been
through together, they have become closer with each other. They protect each
other, help each other and create lots of good and sad memories together.
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
8. They APPRECIATE THEIR FANS
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
❝ To
our EXO-L, even though it looks like we don't know what's going on, we see, we
hear, and we know. So we want you to know that. Our fans, we thank you and we
love you. ❞
- Suho -
❝ And
most importantly to our EXO-L who love us endlessly and always support us, I
love you with all my heart and soul. ❞
- Baekhyun -
❝ EXO-L,
take care of yourself. Because if you hurt, our heart is hurt too. ❞
- Suho -
❝ It
feels like you always wait for us. As EXO, we're very sorry. We work days and
night so you could feel proud of us. You always listen to our music and always
supporting us. We're moved and always want to thank you. ❞
- Baekhyun -

9.
They are very DETERMINED
△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△
Sometimes it scares me how EXO never give
up no matter how hard it is. If I was them, I'd probably just give up.
They lose 3 members, get lots of hates,
have to deal with bad and fake rumors, lack of sleep, often cry alone, always
get injured, being attacked by saesang fans but they never give up.
Other groups will probably disband and lose
their popularity if they lose 3 members like EXO. So much respect to EXO for
being able to keep their popularity. It's not easy. I'm sure they work very
hard for it.
EXO
is my motivation.
