Let Me In gives me chills every time. Hear Me Out! Groovy is the perfect word for it. Gorgeous vocals/harmonies/etc all gorgeous! EXO is BACK BABY! Thanks for your reactions to these masterpieces!
I love Let Me In a lot. The vocals are used beautifully and the lyric! Gosh it's so wonderful. i also tearing up hearing the song, so don't worry, girl.
seeing you getting emotional really got me 🥺 i can totally understand what you're thinking while hearing let me in for the first time because that's what i've thought too!! i get youuu
When I heard Chen and D.O. singing together tears immediately came to my eyes. It just hit me so hard that those two have not sung together on an EXO track since Love Shot era... so many years with EXO, the emotional impact is quite powerful. Lovely to watch this with you and I really look forward to your thoughts on their Cream Soda choreo ;)
EXO are the kings, they don't need someone to know about their hardwork and whatever that sympathy just to feel their song, their vocals itself tells you story about them, and that's how they are really good. Like REEEAAAALLLLLYYYY good!
You made cry! This was such a genuine reaction, I want to send you a hug. I hope you enjoy Cream Soda and the entire album as much as I did. I truly am blown away by them... even 11 yrs later
There are a ton of theories to go along with EXO's "Let Me In" MV, but what makes the most sense to me is that the lyrics are all about EXO's connection with their fans and their teaser images are connected to EXO's powers and storyline. For example, Kai says, "Here I am and everything I do for you is for us ...", which I see connected to the fact that his power is teleportation and it's his job to travel wherever the other EXO members and fans are in order to connect all of us together -- plus, it also could be connected to the scene in their "For Life" MV, where we see a sign that says "You Were Here." Xiumin's teaser highlights the line, "For long-lasting love, I will freeze my heart," referring to his power of frost. Baekhyun says, "To the Future with us who resemble light," referring to his ability to control light. Chanyeol says, "Don't worry if the darkness approaches, I will shine the light toward you, which could refer to his fire power, etc. D.O. also mentioned in their behind the scenes video, that the "Let Me In" MV is a worldview of EXO's lore. If you watch the MV carefully, when time rewinds, D.O.'s notebook showed that he knew the meteor was going to hit Earth. We saw in his notebook that he has drawn a picture of the meteor, which seems to show that he already knew it was coming. And as the MV goes on, it's revealed that actually all the EXO members knew that the meteor was on a collision course for Earth and that it would hit at that exact moment. One theory is that EXO is traveling through time and space and they are trying to prevent whatever happened in the past from repeating itself or they are trying to stop or reverse what happened from happening in the first place, etc. The whole "Let Me In" MV has a feeling like they all are aware of what is happening, as if they have been through this hundreds of times, but they haven't been able to do anything about it yet. The story in "Let Me In" could all be a big reveal of what they were talking about way back in their pre-debut "History" lyrics and MV, because in that song they talk about wanting to prevent history from being repeated. "History" is about failing at something and trying again to make it right. The theory is that in this part of the story EXO made some sort of unknown "big mistake" on their planet, so they have been sent to Earth to try and right their wrongs by trying to prevent the Red Force from causing a "big mistake" or prevent humanity from allowing a "big mistake" to happen on Earth. Which now we may have discovered is the meteor that crashes into Earth and destroys humanity. In "Let Me In" we see Sehun and D.O. sitting at the same outdoor cafe, and they make eye contact but they don't interact because it's thought that EXO are supposed to be going about their tasks on Earth incognito, and so they don't want to be noticed by whomever might be watching them or to reveal their location to the Red Force, etc. Some speculate that when D.O. and Sehun are looking at each other they are silently questioning whether they could use their powers to save the world. But, as we see, D.O. choses to walk away and let everything happen because he knows nothing they have tried in the past has prevented disaster, and they have no better solutions at this time. We also see Sehun sigh and continue talking to his friend, even though he knows what would happen. We then see D.O.pause and stand there, watching Sehun and possibly thinking about what is about to happen. In the next scene, we see Baekhyun is standing at the exact spot where he knew the meteor would hit Earth. We see that everything is dark and void of light, which seems to indicate that he is unable to use his power of light and he is unable to stop the meteor as he watches it hurtle toward him. Then we see that as the meteor hits Earth, the end credits of the movie that Chen was watching started playing, which possibly could be happening in the movie theater we saw Chen and the other EXO members sitting in in their "Love Shot" MV. In "Love Shot" we saw Suho trying to prevent the members from watching the video by covering Chen's eyes. The scene with the end credits seems to be saying that this is the end of the world. However, as we see in the next moment, this was where time rewound and, as they say in EXO's "Call Me Baby" MV Pathcode teaser videos, "The beginning = The End." However, there is something more going on with Chen in the theater, because when Xiumin entered the movie theater, Chen squinted at him. Something seemed off about this scene. If you notice, when you see them laughing together, they seem to be watching a replay of a scene starring themselves before the meteor hit, but why? Another thing to note, is the references to all the rocks. The ones we see the members have seem dormant like normal rocks, until time starts rewinding, then they appear to come to life. The interesting thing is, we only see Chanyeol, Suho and Kai with the rocks. This may symbolize that these three had already experienced the meteor hitting the Earth at some point, and they each kept a fragment of it to help them remember in the future or in another time period what had happened. (Kai, Suho and Chanyeol were also the only members in the "For Life" MV.) When the story focuses on Chanyeol, it looks like he may be standing at the epicenter of where the meteor may have hit the first time it struck Earth or he has traveled back in time to right after the meteor first hit Earth. He looks confused and alone, which seems to parallel his "Call Me Baby" Pathcode teaser and he's recalling what happened. Then we see the stones start to float once again, which looks like it might be the pieces of the original meteor being reactivated like they are coming back together as time reverses. This also reminds me of D.O.'s power, which is the manipulation of Earth elements that give him super strength. In some of EXO's early teaser videos and concert VCRs from the early days, we see that D.O. is able to use his power of force to take giant rocks and use them to stop missiles from hitting their targets. So, was D.O. involved in helping to prevent the original meteor from causing destruction? And nothing in an EXO MV is ever random. For example, I think the child throwing the rock at the beginning is shown for a very specific reason. Many think the fact that he throws the rock is meant to be a metaphor for how the meteor wasn't a natural occurrence, but was actually caused by something man-made. As part of SM's Culture Universe storyline, it is thought that the underlying message the story is trying to address is all the things that we as humans are doing wrong that need to be fixed, such as war, hate, the destruction of the environment, governmental control, greed of money, etc., which is revealed through the interference of the Red Force and their influence on humanity. Therefore, it is thought that someone or something has directed this large rock toward Earth or caused the rock's trajectory to be directed toward Earth. There's also one scene in EXO's "Lucky One" MV where we see Kai in space with lots of meteors, which could be a foreshadowing of things to come. Therefore, some now think "Let Me In" is taking place after EXO has escaped in "Lucky One", which could explain why the members no longer have the ability to use their powers in "Let Me In". The Red Force stopped EXO's ability to use their powers when they were experimenting on them in "Lucky One". We originally thought that the story in their "Ko Ko Bop" MV took place right after "Lucky One," which would explain why they were loopy and unable to control their powers in "Ko Ko Bop", but since their "Obsession" MV part of the story was introduced, we now think that "Ko Ko Bop" is actually all about X-EXO's storyline, EXO's alter ego clones. That's why it is now thought that "Let Me In" is where EXO's story picks up after they escape in "Lucky One." "Let Me In" also could be taking place in conjunction with "Obsession's" part of the storyline, because we see the world being destroyed at the end of "Obsession." Maybe EXO are rewinding time to try to prevent whatever happened, in order to stop the destruction of Earth, which could be caused by the battle between EXO and X-EXO or the Red Force, as we see come to the boiling point in "Obsession". Also, notice how when time was turned back, only Xiumin and Chen, who were in the house, rewound, and everyone else stayed where they were. There are two theories to explain this. Either they are in parallel universes where they can see what is happening, or maybe one of them or some of them aren't EXO members, but they are an X-EXO member in disguise. In another scene, we see time rewind and the rock that Suho had disappears. We think that could be because the "disaster" never happened or hasn't happened yet. Therefore, it is thought that in this reality, EXO must be the only ones who know what happened in a previous time and place because the timeline has been altered or changed. Something must have prevented it from happening, or has changed the events which lead up to the meteor striking Earth, etc. As the time reversed, it gave them another chance, but they have to relive it all before they can figure out how to change things. The most interesting part of this MV storyline, is that there is no eclipse or sun in the video. An eclipse/sun and moon are where EXO gets their powers from. Some speculate that this means that in their next MV there will be an eclipse, which will allow their powers to return. It's pretty clear that the EXO members are unable to use their powers in "Let Me In" because, for example, why wouldn't D.O. just use his power of force to break up the meteor and why would Kai need a car if he is able to teleport wherever he wants to go?
Where the hell you been Thina! No really, I know life happens. To finally see them together after so long, this song will make me happy to the point of tears too. The song Let Me In is just as you guessed. They were all lonely, busy with military and life, and being together again is what they needed. Hear Me Out is a groovy vibe, chill with a brew and watch the sunset. Love it. 😊 💙🌺
I had the same reaction when watching Let me in at the first time. I did not realize that I'll be that emotional. Also, we're the same! I started stanning EXO around 2019. Thanks for reaction to EXO😊
Same, same, same! I became a fan about a month after Growl came out. Every comeback since has been an amazing experience, from the anticipation to the deep dive. But this one feels different. This is EXO at 30 and there’s no mistaking that.
Aww Tina ❤ i felt the same when i heard Let Me In, super happy for their comeback yet sad since it's not full group cb huhuhu but this comeback really WORTH the wait! Can't wait to see your reaction & thought for the Cream Soda & EXIST & their Killing Voice video Have a good day :>
I'm happy finally! you've reacted to EXO LET ME IN & HEAR ME OUT I've been waiting for you. And here am I waiting for you to react to their TITLE TRACK 'CREAM SODA' . I've been watching your reactions of EXO. Keep the exciting flow!
As soon i watched the mv, lostening properly to the song (they sung it live as a surprise to yheir anniversary event, so i couldnt figure it out properly by live snippets), i cried an ocean. Somehow felt like a rock was lifted from my chest, didnt even read the lyrics. Instantly has become one of my favorite ballads ever, its truly a masterpiece and i cant help but cry EVRY single time i hear even a note. It heals me in a way i cant explain even if it hurts. Guess it was the same for you. I hope you stay strong and wonderful as you are, always ❤ Ps: ues, i cried with you throughout the video, damn!
Waiting for your reaction. Yeah, like both songs. Let Me In give such sad vibes plus its lyrics. And then Hear Me Out give such a chill vibes for summer. Looking forward for your reaction for Cream Soda. And if possible, kindly react EXO in Killing Voice. I believe you're gonna like it.
