Dream the Duet

Yes, you have read the title correctly. A duet will happen, entitled 'Dream'. This DREAMy duet will be sung by Baekhyun and Miss A's Suzy. The song will be released exactly at January 7 2016 at 00:00 am KST. We look forward to this beautifully titled song that will come out in one week.

EXO L Cursing Death on BTS's Jung Kook?

I don't know what is up with you guys recently, but isn't cursing someone to die too much? I recently read the news saying he is being cursed by EXO L because he just said one saying from EXO? It is stated that Jung Kook applied the term 'Let's Love' (which is strongly associated with EXO)  and the other EXO Ls start thinking this was an act of thievery and disrespect to EXO? Now, before you go against me and hating me for defending Jung Kook, I have my points:

  • No K-Pop idol would try to 'steal' or disrespect one another
  • It was probably just accidental instead of him intending to do it
And now, this picture is all over the internet?

Like, isn't that too much? We have to thank the Lord that the ARMYS haven't killed us all yet. They're taking an approach to this situation in a good way by trying to calm us down. I praise whoever made this post before this turns out into World War 3:

Translations for non-Korean speakers:
"I realise how important the phrase 'let's Love' is for you guys but your babies aren't the only important ones are they? How could you photoshop his face into a funeral picture and tweet it to him ㅠㅠㅠㅠ"
Help us out by trying to calm down the fandom and stop World War 3!


Unit 1 Lesson 2: Xiumin

Hey guys! This is another post about EXO 101! In this lesson, we will learn about Xiumin! Here is a chart that I made to help this lesson go along easier:


Xiumin is easily recognised by chubby cheeks and his cat eyes. The powers that the members poses come from their first song, Mama, where each member uses a special power in the music video. Xiumin has the nickname Bao Zi be cause of his chubby cheeks.

Unit 1 Lesson 1: The Basics of EXO

For the first unit, we'll be talking about the basics of EXO. But first, to get started, you have to read my page entitled 'A Beginner's Guide to EXO' before moving on. First step is that you need to memorise are their names. You must remember 12 names, which is hard. It took me about one week to memorise everything. These are the list of names:

  • Suho
  • Sehun
  • Baekhyun
  • Chanyeol
  • D.O.
  • Kai
  • Kris
  • Luhan
  • Tao
  • Lay
  • Chen
  • Xiumin
The way I see it, the only way to do that is just by repeating it over and over again. Once you have that memorised, you are done with this lesson! Stay tuned for more of EXO 101!


New Topic: EXO 101

So lately, not much news about EXO has come out so it means no content to write, so i'm making a new topic for this blog named EXO 101. It's basically like a course for all those new fans to make them into an intelligent fan, with the knowledge of EXO! Tell me what you think about it, the next post is coming up soon!


Sorry, Sorry, Sorry

I'm SO sorry that I did not complete the christmas countdown and I have not been updating. Lately, I have been busy preparing presents, going to Christmas celebrations and I did not have time to blog. Once again, sorry!

Japanese Version of 'Lightsaber' is Out?

First, we had the Korean version of 'Lightsaber'. Then, we had the Chinese version. Now, we have the Japanese Version! It's nice that we can listen to it in several languages, and they still sound as good as the previous! Watch the video here:

When I watched the video, I was impressed by how they could sing so well in Japanese. As usual, continue watching on youtube to increase their views!

Kris Hanging Out with Jessica Jung?

Former member Kris is seen to be hanging out with Jessica Jung? Usually, it's rare seeing people who have left their band and company hang out together. According to few news articles, they seem to be working on a variety show. Jessica even posted a selfie saying,"I had so much fun today!". Soon enough, their search ratings on weibo went up to 5th place! Some suggest that they are now working on their solo projects.

Lay Feels Regretful for Not Appearing in 'Sing For You'

Ever seen a Kpop idol cry? Well, one recently did. During the shooting for 'Sing for You', he was busy and unable to attend. He felt regretful and upset because he wasn't there to help the other members.
"I wanted to tell the members that I love them, and that I'm sorry,"
~Lay

Even just saying that made him choke ad cry, making him turn so the audience won't see.
"It must be hard for Lay, being the only Chinese member, having to move from place to place for EXO and his Chinese promos. We want to tell you to find strength and we're grateful that you can cope."
~Korean fans

If you seen my previous post entitled 'Is Lay Ill?' where he was visibly fatigued, you will understand. Stay strong, Lay. Fighting!

Saesaeng Fans: Why Not to Be One..

I'm sure all of you know what a saesaeng fan is. If you don't, they are basically the downside of EXO L. They stalk EXO like.. EVERYWHERE! Even in the toilet! Few signs of saesaeng fans:
-Stalking
-Killing anyone who says anything bad about EXO
-Framing whatever EXO has touched.. even a dirty tissue

Now do you see my point? There was one EXO member who came specifically just to talk about saesaeng fans.. Probably talking how they give them a hard life. I composed a letter to all you saesaengs:

To: The Saesaengs
From: Admin Crystal
Subject: Talking about Saesaengs

Honestly..
Why do saesaengs exist? Your intention might be trying to help them. The hard truth is that you're not. You're just giving them a hard life. Creeping them out by stalking them, making them feel responsible when you saesaengs bring another band, maybe their best friend (Taemin and Kai are besties). In short, most things you might do are harming them some way. Stop being a saesaeng, I encourage you, and be like a normal fan. I'm 101% sure that EXO will appreciate it.

All the best,
Admin Crystal

Thinking About K-pop

Hi guys! First, totally sorry for not updating recently. I have been going home pretty late, or I'm busy watching the MAMA Awards Ceremony. Today, the post is a bit different. It is an interview, about what people think about K-Pop. All of the people questioned are my close friends from school. Shall we start?

Questions:
1. What did you think when you first 
knew/heard about K-Pop?

 Greta: Interesting
 Isabel: I felt nothing
 DaHye: Fun and makes me want to dance
 Klea: Fun and good

2. What do you think about it now?

 Greta: They have nice/good songs
 Isabel: Interesting
 DaHye: Good
 Klea: I don't think about it anymore

3. Do you consider yourself a fan?
 Greta: No
 Isabel: No
 DaHye: Yes
 Klea: No

So, the conclusion is that everyone likes K-Pop (almost) but not much are fans, which is sad. But, you may be asking my own opinions and maybe a story for how I became a fan, but that's a story for another time. But, that's not all. All of them have blogs, too! Here are the links:
