kpop stans putting the randomest songs because it charted high and was famous for 2 years at most 😭 y’all simply do NOT understand how insanely huge growl was and still is so let’s not speak on things we can’t comprehend
can’t stop thinking how chanyeol chose not to include clips of exo winning music shows, receiving awards or performing on stage. instead he wanted to put videos where they are simply goofing around with each other, being toally at ease with one another.
even veteran idols known for great vocals like exo, btob, monsta x and mamamoo STILL take vocal lessons and here’s sakura telling people to pack it up because nobody’s perfect
sakura’s weverse post 🥺
“what does it mean to be on stage?
is it about showing the perfect side?
is it about entertaining the audience?
or is it about performing a stage without being allowed to make a single mistake?”
none of these match growl’s power and it’s okay! 😭 we can definitely give the girls their flowers but it will be given to snsd for gee, 2ne1 for i am the best and wonder girls for nobody/tell me
junmyeon’s enlistment is probably the most painful one yet because he has always been the anchor for exols when the fandom starts to miss exo too much. it was always him who reassures us that despite everything, it will get better soon for exo and exols.
i love how this break exo is taking isn’t just for them to complete their military services or expand their solo careers but it’s also for them to grow as human beings, yixing continuing his studies and jongdae building a family like i’m so proud and happy for them
the exos are always like “please wait for us” “wait for exo” “wait for my members” like what tf do they think i have been doing for the past two years?
i have mad respect for new exo-ls. when i joined the fandom, i had exo showtime, music stages, multiple endorsements and daily interviews with tv appearances meanwhile all they got was enlistment news but we still love exo the same 😭
other fandoms beg for a comeback, more selfies, more spoilers, more content while exo-ls just beg for exo to be seen together in one room and one frame but apparently even that is too much to ask for
yixing was the first member of exo to have a solo and now jongdae is the next member so according to my calculations, minseok will be following their steps because exo-m always wins. this is a win for exo-m stans and exo-m stans only.
these are all exo’s confirmed cars so far. chanyeol’s mercedes, sehun and baekhyun’s audis and now jongin’s bmw. their cars are as expensive and rich as they are.
this entire era is just so bittersweet. in all my years as an exol, i’ve never seen exo so quiet especially after a comeback. even for winter mini albums in the past, we had some performances and vlive. sm isn’t even trying to do anything to promote this comeback.
some of y’all on stan twt don’t have a life outside of social media and it SHOWS. people date and break up all the time over so many reasons but when idols are involved, it’s suddenly “media play” or a “scheme” by sm and yg for attention and publicity.
i hate how exo doesn’t feel like a 12 year old group because they were only truly active for 5-6 years like tempo doesn’t feel like it’s too long ago but sekai were only 24 for dmumt and they’re 30 now? that doesn’t make sense what do you mean it’s been THAT long
exo members actually meet up so regularly but they just prefer not to post anything because they don’t need to prove their brotherhood and friendship to ANYONE. only they know what they have and only they know how tight their bonds are.
no but can y’all imagine the absolute apocalyptic mess this fandom would have experienced if xingpark didn’t spoil it for us, imagine if we hadn’t known anything and suddenly saw yixing’s teasers 😭
can we talk about how this comback isn’t your typical angel vs devil or white vs black concept? we are not getting exo in whites with halos on top of their heads fighting with their evil doppelgangers. we are getting badass exo vs an even more badass and twisted version of exo.
yixing calling out sehun’s name before singing “can i be the one you call when i’m back on your side of town?” OKAY LONG DISTANCE HOMOSEXUAL RELATIONSHIP???
“gone too far” and it’s just a bbh fansite posting pictures of baekhyun’s leader who is in the same group as baekhyun, who supported baekhyun, who baekhyun loves so much
imagine being so powerful and relevant that in the midst of having your own comeback stage and enjoying time with your fans, you still make antis pissed and bothered during an award show you never even thought about attending, exo and only exo can relate
i kind of like how ot9 keeps their relationship to themselves because they know they don’t have to prove their brotherhood to anyone. the korean members actually meet up with yixing so regularly but they don’t see the need to tell the world about it.
monster was not ot9’s first comeback together but this is definitely peak ot9. they showed up to the studio all mad because everyone kept hating on them but they had a mission to conquer and carried power no other 4 year old group ever could
the strongest boy group and that’s on period. they’ve gone through so much. public backlash, lawsuits, members leaving, dating scandals, horrible rumors and even mistreatment from their own agency but they never slowed down. they grew and improved with each passing year.
we have almost only A WEEK left before the date of exo’s official comeback and we still know nothing about the albums, we love sm’s most privileged group
exo was only truly active and given attention from sm for 4 years, 2013-2017. 4 years out of their 12 year long career so i don’t think even exo are aware how huge they really are and how much bigger they could have been if given the chance
i don’t know what it is between jongin and chanyeol but they have the most accurate hyung-dongsaeng relationship ever. chanyeol treats him like his actual baby brother and jongin loves his chanyeol hyung so much and it’s most precious thing ever.
you NEVER see other groups dealing with albums going out of stock during preorder period because that’s literally the purpose of preorders? you can’t tell me sm hasn’t already chosen the amount of numbers they want exo to sell lmfao
there’s a difference between having a concept for a comeback and having a fixed concept throughout your entire career. exo didn’t just have this for obsession, they’ve had this concept since the very beginning. hinted through nearly every comeback since 2012. exo is the blueprint
the reason why antis are loud about exo “flopping” is because they KNOW exo aren’t the flops they so badly want them to be and they can’t accept that. who else in the industry sold a million copies even after 9 years with absolutely zero promo whatsoever? 😭
i just adore how exo doesn’t flaunt their friendship as openly as others but when they do, it���s one of the most precious moments ever. they know what they have, they know how tight the brotherhood is between them and they don’t need to convince or prove it to anyone.
the farewell fanmeeting, him covering gg songs, him performing exo songs alone, exo members making a surprise appearance, exo calling yixing, yixing telling exo-ls that he misses exo, chanyeol exposing that him and minseok nearly kissed all happened today
the way sm could have easily put exo in this online concert as well. include more sechan stages, more solo performances for each member and perform songs that they’ve never performed before but they’re exophobic, we been knew.
no because if you’re denying that sm isn’t trying to sabotage exo, you must be one hell of a fool. it was already proven when the prices for dftf are way higher than any other albums sm produced this year. the shipping fees on ktown4u is also nonsensical.
what some of y’all fail to realize is that the only reason why exo still exists is because they want to stay together. each and every single member has proven to us that they’re capable of making a name for themselves by excelling in different fields of the entertainment industry
me thinking about how yixing missed out so much with his members. he didn’t get to go to dubai, didn’t get to join the olympics performance, didn’t get to go to fiji for dear happiness, didn’t join exo on their getaway trip for their reality show
everyone expected baekhyun to pick up his phone calls like “eung? oh? hello~~ ‘ㅅ’” but in reality he goes all “the fuck do u want asshole” and that’s the greatest thing ever.
i personally think the reason chanyeol has been quiet about this is because he’s getting to the bottom of this himself. he wants to know who exactly is behind this issue so he can properly take legal action since his own company refuses to provide him with any help
yixing inviting girl groups all across the world to not only compete with his famale trainees but also serve as mentors because he believes the girls can learn so much from watching all these amazing groups. not to mention he helps the existing girl groups boost their popularity.
solo stans obsession with their bias “outgrowing” exo as if it’s some sort of qualification. y’all really think the exos are together simply because of the awards and numbers? why is it so hard for y’all to accept that exo exists to this day because they just love being exo? 😭
chanyeol wanting to be baekhyun’s teammate because he can’t stand going against him, jongin wanting to be on baekhyun’s team because he knows they’ll win and kyungsoo not giving a damn which team he’s in 😭 please this is already so chaotic
the second you akgae freaks realize and accept the fact that exo are all men in their 30s with actual lives outside of being boy group members who definitely don’t need twitter warriors to tell them how to treat their friends, you will at least start to look less insane.
exols have been saying for the longest time that sm quite literally limits their artists’ growth because they don’t want their idols to overpower them but y’all called us delusional and butthurt from “lack of exo content”
