Another iconic EXO song! They performed this in the closing ceremony of 2018 Winter Olympics.This was also the fist Kpop song to be played at the world famous Dubai Fountain Show
I you should have done the Olympics closing ceremony it was amazing and historical. Kai opening with Traditional Korean dance then into Growl closing the Olympics with Power. It’s amazing like a live concert 🎶 please do that next Brock 🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗🤗🤩🤩☺️ along with Power the first K-Pop song played at the Dubai Water Fountain show to music and EXO on the worlds tallest building in Dubai The Burj Khalifa EXO was the very first and it was The united Arab emirates who decided to do this.
THIS. I am a baby exo-l and i don't even know when i started counting the number of members at the beginning of every performance i watched and checked who's missing.
This was the first kpop song (and EXO the first kpop artist) played in The Dubai Fountain, the world's biggest choreographed fountain. Also, it was played in the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, and the last song EXO performed in MAMA. Hope you can react to it (plus the speech in the end) because its such an emotional performance to both EXO and EXOLS 😭🤍 As always, thank you for reacting to EXO 🤍🤍🤍
It's an iconic song, its was the first kpop song ever to be added to the permanent list of Dubai dancing fountain, and they preformed it in the winter Olympics 2018 closing ceremony with Growl, you may want to react to it one day, it's a great performance ^^
With all due respect to the others, but i say with conviction that EXO has the best b-sides in kpop .. Man, they have THE EVE (my fav, I think it's emotional attachment, because it was one of the first ones I was like "wow" ), SWEET LIES, FOREVER, GRAVITY, DIAMOND, ARTIFICIAL LOVE, GOING CRAZY, STRONGER, OH LA LA LA, 24/7, YA YA YA, PARADISE, BEEN THROUGH, WAIT, TOUCH IT, LADY LUCK .. Anyway, it could pass hours quoting much more .. Anyway, they are awesome! I literally have a playlist of just their bsides on spotify 🤣🤡❤️ Oh, I wanted to indicate a performance by them, I think it's one of my favorites because you can feel the vibe of this show even through the screen .. please watch it later: Diamond+Coming Over+Run this+Power(closing the show) m.ruclips.net/video/tmuUOALe5pc/видео.html
And you forgot to mention so many of my trop favourite bsides including Hurt, Oasis, Trauma, Promise, Baby don't cry, Runaway and many more. Literally all of their bsides are worth mentioning ❤❤
I think you might be at a point in your EXO journey where you can handle watching Diamond+Coming Over+Run This+Drop That+Power, the Elyxion in Seoul concert. The only thing is it will make you realize you’d sell a kidney to see them live.
In EXO's "Power" MV it is thought that EXO are on Planet Exo and, before the "Obsession" MV came out, we all thought EXO was trying to get their powers back from the Red Force.The original theory was that the robot, which is being controlled by the Red Force, stole EXO's powers and the members had to fight to get their powers back. That's why the robot is labeled RFO5 which stands for Red Force. Not sure what the 05 means, but some theories say that EXO's sister group, Red Velvet, could possibly be the Red Force. If you watch some of Red Velvet's MVs you might be able to make some connections between EXO's storyline and Red Velvet's storyline. Red Velvet has 5 members, so maybe the 05 stands for the 5 members. But whatever it means, the one thing I am sure of is, it's another clue to EXO's origin story. The powers the robot has are all of EXO's powers. For example, you see the robot with Chanyeol's fire orb use it to shoot fire, and the blue orb I think is Suho's water power, etc. On each of EXO's "watches" you see a symbol which is the symbol that represents each of their powers. If you remember in "Mama," each of the members has a symbol that represents their power -- If we were able to see all of their watches, I am pretty sure, we would have seen each one displayed that member's symbol. (The hooded figure and the part about the two suns, etc. at the beginning of this MV, is a reference to EXO's origin story and it's supposed to remind you of the narration in the intro of their "Mama" MV.) On a side note, as you see in this MV, each of the members is represented by a different color which coincides with their power. EXO's fandom color is "Cosmic Latte" (greyish-tan) -- Cosmic Latte is said to be the color created when you combine all the colors of the stars together -- but the group's lightstick is actually multi-colored. Each color represents one of the members. The lightstick has bluetooth and during concerts the lighting technicians can control the fan's lightsticks and change the colors or make them flash or strobe, etc. along with the beat of the music. So during different parts of the concert, depending on which of the members are featured at that moment on stage, they often change the color of the lightstick lights to the color that represents that member. Also, as you see in the MV, EXO's powers are controlled by the eclipse. As you know, the eclipse is where EXO summons their abilities from and that's why the majority of the stories in their MVs revolve around an eclipse of some kind or something to do with the moon. And that's why a few of their comebacks and MV releases have been on days when we have had a real eclipse, or some sort of real planetary phenomenon, etc. Chen's power is the power to control thunder, but where there is thunder there is always lightning, so Chen also has control of electricity. Lightning is what creates thunder. So, some theories say that is why Chen is the one that is able to plug the power source back in without getting zapped because he has the ability to control electricity; and because Xiumin's power is snow/ice/frost he gets zapped when he tries to plug the power in because snow and ice doesn't mix well with electricity. The funny wiggly toy is supposed to represent the robot after he has been deactivated by the EXO (or maybe X-EXO) members. It is now dead and it no longer has any power, etc. Lay is the only member who is missing in "Power" -- this MV was during the start of when he was no longer able to work with EXO. So, because Lay was unable to participate in this MV, as part of EXO's storyline, Lay was unable to collect his power orb at this time. So originally fan theories thought that the EXO members got his power back for him and they sent Lay his power orb in the mail. We see Lay receive a package, which is thought to contain his orb, in his MV for his solo song "Namanana." However, Lay is not the only one who doesn't get his power back right away. If you look, when all the members powers are being reunited, Baekhyun is the only member who is not shown receiving his power orb -- he didn't show up until later in the MV. In a lot of EXO's MVs, Baekhyun is one of the main characters and he is usually singled out or stands apart from the members. So theories originally speculated that maybe Baekhyun had been corrupted by the Red Force. But now, since "Obsession," we are starting to think that maybe Baekhyun was the only one that was not under the Red Force's control. But as with everything that EXO does, we fans are all still trying to figure out what it all means. Although, now that we have new information about EXO's story -- since their "Obsession" MV came out -- the new theory is that the "Power" MV is actually showing us X-EXO in training and Baekhyun has always been the one who the Red Force was unable to steal his power orb, which is why we don't see him until later on in "Power". This is another instance where, now that we know X-EXO are the ones that are dressed in bright colors, with crazy hair and makeup that, in hindsight, we think "Power" might be showing us a piece of X-EXO's storyline, instead of EXO like we originally thought. Now that we know about X-EXO, it makes sense that "Power" is showing us X-EXO's storyline because most of the members in this MV have blue eyes or different eye colors, which we originally thought was just because it makes them look more like comic book characters to go along with the theme of the MV. However, we have now realized, within SM's SM Culture Universe storyline, when characters within SM MVs have blue eyes or different eye colors this usually is an indication that that person isn't themselves, i.e. they aren't who we think they are. It is thought to be used to show that they are a clone or alter ego, etc., under the control of an evil force. Also take notice, of the letter that is on the collar of the Kitten. If you look, you will see it's an L. It is thought that the kitten is supposed to represent us EXO-Ls. We are the ones that are supporting "EXO," dispensing power and giving them strength, etc. That's why Baekhyun is seen lovingly holding the kitten. If Baekhyun is the only one not under the Red Forces' control, then he is an EXO member, so he is protecting the Kitten (EXO-Ls). In the "Power" MV, fan theories originally thought that once they defeat the robot and get their powers back, EXO are then sent to Earth to start their mission. That is why at the end of this MV you see Baekhyun being sent to Earth were he lands in the water. However, now maybe Baekhyun wasn't necessarily on Earth, but maybe, because he is the one that isn't under the Red Forces' control, this scene is showing us something else. The song you hear playing at the end of the MV is another song from their Power album -- it is called "Sweet Lies." (There is no MV for it because it's a B-side track.) Theories have also been that when the members all arrived on Earth none of them arrived together and they each landed in different locations all over the world (which is explained in EXO's "Call Me Baby" pathcode teaser videos), so that might be why at the end of the "Power" MV you see Baekhyun by himself floating in the water. As you can see, even though this is one of their more recent songs and MVs the story in the MV is actually part of the very beginning of EXO's origin story, so this is an example of how their storyline is not in chronological order. We EXO-L's have to really pay attention to figure out where each part of their story fits within the storyline with each new song and MV release, including all their solo content and their sub-unit releases, etc. Also, it's worth noting that if you were to pause the MV at the part in the beginning before the MV really starts, at the part where all the members are in that "club room" hanging out. You would see that everything in that room is there for a reason and it all gives clues to different things to do with EXO, such as the date of their next comeback, what the theme of the next MV might be, the title of the song, etc. The posters on the walls and even the way the members are positioned in the room and what they are doing is all another part of EXO's story, and it gives us a few more clues to what to expect in future chapters of EXO's epic novel or action adventure/mystery movie series. I encourage you, if you haven't already, to go back and look at this frame of the MV, you will be surprised the things you can find within just that one scene. If you haven't already, you really should check out a comeback stage for "Power" because even though this MV doesn't have any dancing, there is choreography that goes along with the song and it gives the song a totally different vibe, ruclips.net/video/QxYzQzqrKOQ/видео.html. And when you see their concert performance of "Power", the concert version is the remixed version, so the choreography is different then what you will see in their comeback stage. "Power" was also used as one of the theme songs, along with their song "Growl," during the 2018 winter Olympics, and EXO even performed both songs during the closing ceremony. Fun fact: If you purchase this album, one version comes with a comic book/graphic novel that continues EXO's storyline. And you only get to see those clues to the story if you own the album. Just another example of how EVERYTHING SM creates for EXO continues their concept and storyline. :D
A repackage album is the same album plus 3 more songs. The power of music has all the song from the war album ( kokobop, the eve, forever, going crazy, etc) plus 3 more songs: power, sweet lies and boomerang. The same way love shot is the repackage for don't mess up my Tempo album., and growl is for xoxo( wolf album), and Lotto is for EX'act ( lucky one and monster) Mini albums and the winter albums don't have a repackage album. Obsession is the only full album that doesn't have a repackage album.
There is some debate about why they don’t have their powers here, the most popular is that they were taken and here they win them back. except Baekhyun who has his all along, but finishes in the Sweet Lies teaser in alone in water which is not his element. Power is very popular live and has been used in some iconic performances.
@@noryjeansacorin9311 He still has his power orb, he doesn’t have to get it back. Popular theory is that he is not in the same place as the others - he dropped down into the water, perhaps from the spacecraft the rest were in as it came down, whether forced or through choice is unclear. Some think he may be on another planet - Suho’s water planet.
@@noryjeansacorin9311 yes, very sad. One thought is that Sweet Lies may have meant to have a video - even if only for Concert purposes. Maybe we have yet to see the continuance as the time line of events does not correspond to the time line of MV releases.
Saw this comment under the mcountdown video and had the urge to post it here too: Facts about Exo's Power: • Exo's Power played at Dubai Fountain (Also Exo appeared at Burj Khalifa in Power era) • Exo's Power played at FIFA World Cup 2018 • Exo's Power played at Olympics ceremonies TWICE -Seoul winter olympics 2018 (even performed) -Tokyo olympics 2020 ->Conclusion: Power IS a powerful song.
Yes power is the title track its a repackage album thankyou for reacting more EXO i am excited everytime you react to my favorite kpop group of all time the story of power is their superpowers got by the redforce and they will get it back Please check more live performances WHITENOISE+THUNDER+PLAYBOY+ARTIFICIALLOVE 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😘😘😘
So in kpop industry there's a "full album" & "repackage album". In America, repackage is known more as "deluxe" version. So basically repackage or deluxe is the extension of full album. It's usually released a few months after it, containing all the songs in full album plus additional new songs in there(usually 2-4 new songs). They might comeback with slightly different concept between the two but overall still retain the same vibe of music. So in this case "The War" is their 2017 full album with Kokobop as their title track. Then a few months later they released The War repackage, which is called "The Power of Music" with Power as their title track. They're basically the same but one is the "main album" whereas the other is "additional album". I'm trying my best to explain here. I hope it's not too confusing😅 but that's just how kpop albums works, not just with EXO but also with most of them.
We don't mind the spamming as long as it's EXO 😌 Kai's face expressions are iconic and even though others tried doing it as well, it's never like his 😎 "The Power Of Music" is a Repackage album for "The War" In the MV, the robot represents the red force who have taken EXO's powers so by defeating it, they took their powers BACK. The cat having the letter L as a pendant, represents EXO-Ls. Freeing EXO's powers. There's a remix version to Power, they performed it during concerts and award shows. They also performed it at the closing ceremony of Winter Olympics at 2018, and is the FIRST KPOP SONG to ever be played on Burj Khalifa during a Dubai Fountain Show.
A repackage album is an album that comprised of all the songs from a comeback album plus new songs. EXO used to have 3 albums in a year before, 1st: Comeback album, 2nd: Repack album, 3rd: Winter album. Here’s an example, in July 2017, EXO had their Comeback with ‘The War’ album (Kokobop-title track) after few months, september 2017, they had their Repack album which is ‘The War: The Power of Music’ (Power-title track) and on December of the same year they had their Winter special album which is the ‘Universe’. So basically it’s a new album but consist of all of the war album plus few new songs hence called re-package. Personally, i love this album in terms of concept, the physical album is soooo nice. It’s a comic type you’ll get power cards and a comic story, like you said comic vibe and you’re totally right. Power era is a crazy one, this song was played in a western football event - if im not mistaken, first kpop song played in Dubai fountain, EXO performed this as a closing performance for Winter Olympics. This is too lengthy now, hehe. thank you for another exo reaction, as always.
Repackage albums are like deluxe albums. Basically the same album but with more songs. This one's kinda different though. They changed the title track to Power and basically the story/theme they're telling for the repack.
there are 2 EXO songs that i didn't like when i first watch them, it's wolf and Power. but once i watch it performed live, i love it instantly. thank you for reacting to EXO! LOVE YOU!
Brock: Sorry for spamming EXO reactions. Satisfied Exols: u kiddin'? Also Brock: The smile Kai, cheeky. The stage presence. Me: u under Kai's spell. jus sayin. lol
😍😍 power yes ........ look you must react to this live but it never comes alone it would be unforgettable reaction if you react to it all at it should be like deimond + coming over + drop that +POWER as ending part 🎉🎉🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨 plz do it soooooon
EXO's albums confused me too at first.. But before they would release an album then after a couple of months re-released it again with a different title with the same songs together with some new songs. Thats why they call it repackaged. In this case it was 1st released as The War Album.. with Kokobop as its title track. The repackaged to The Power of Music with Power as a title track.
Also keep in mind during this Era in the comics that came with the album it was said that there's a traitor among us. So we know one member is working for the red force as well or being a spy. So far baekhyun and Xiumin are obviously suspicious in most of their mvs we even got them both pointing guns at themselves in LOVESHOT but other members also look sus in other mvs and vcr too but we still don't know for sure even to now. Oh and their latest mv DFTF is a continuation of power storyline 😎
if you remember D.O. with the buzz cut that was not because the military service, it was because he was acting in a movie (Swing Kids) which requires him to cut his hair like that.. (note: most Korean men would only get the buzz cut when they first going into the military, they'd have a normal short hair when they got out) and yes, this is before everyone went to the military
Yey!! More EXO content is always good! 😁Power is such a fun song and MV, it deserves more appreciation! And yes, Kai's stage presence is just off the charts!
I soo agree to the MV sound effects being too loud/the actual song not being loud enough!! I always thought it was too bad that’s how they edited it!! Also i liked this! I think it’s best to react to music shows live stages bec those are usually where you get the most essence of the original concept! The actual active members during that era, stage outfits and design! Usually concert stages are done months or years after so their stage outfits aren’t thematic to the song, or some members have gone to the military enlistment so singing parts are temporarily changed, concert versions are remixed etc☺️
Spam EXO tracks all you want, Don, and you won't hear us, Aeris, complain even in the tiniest bit!!! Yup, this MV is so reminiscent of the Power Rangers! In it EXO are fighting their perpetual enemy, the Red Force in the form of the robot RF-05 that stole their super power orbs. My favorite lines from this track: "When tiring days come, remember baby The beautiful us The power to get up again It's in you!" Fun Fact: EXO made history again with POWER as it was the first ever K-Pop song to be played in the Dubai Fountain Show, the world's biggest choreographed fountain system. The boys even flew to Dubai for its inaugural run.
We knew of Exo's Continuous storyline but with Power mv it was then we all realized they had parallel universes in their storyline. Because each planet shown at the beginning of power mv represents a different dimension and time in Exo's storyline. And you almost got it, Exo since the beginning had their powers but because they are constantly trying to hide the heart of TREE OF LIFE from the RED FORCE whose always chasing after them to destroy them. In power mv the red force robot had their power orbs but they got it back when they destroyed the robot. The storyline is confusing really because the mv are not released in order. It's like bits and pieces of puzzle pieces we try to piece together but given at mixed order and time. I remember in the CALL ME BABY era promo, it was said that after they got to earth and stayed for many generations they lost their powers and memories but when an eclipse occurs they either regain their power or memories i forgot which one.eris yall help use out on this one.
you're really observant to be able to catch the plot about the power orbs and how they get their superpower on the first watch.. I mean, I've watched this mv 20 times before I noticed Xiumin fall head first after trying to connect the cords 😭 I'd never understand anything if not for other exols explaining it
The choreo is clearer in this vid ruclips.net/video/swmr_t7ISoQ/видео.html Please watch how Kai stood up magically in time stamp 2:36 definitely our dancing king!
Thanks for linking that video, i am a baby-L and i had sort of hear that kai had such a step in one of the choreos but i didn't know which. Also, while watching that, i noticed how Baekhyun also tried getting up like that behind Kai and ended up stumbling lmao😂😂
@@saumyaa65 Really? Haha I didnt notice. Baek you are a legend on your own so its okay. ☺️ They are actually really fans of each other all the members. Xiumin once reacted to Bambi and said he thought Kai was dancing instead of Baek. And Baek said it was the best compliment. 🥰 ruclips.net/video/AluvqqmO5X4/видео.html
Exo releases albums but the repackaged ones after it have added bside tracks I believe. They did the same thing with LOVESHOT album the repackage album of it had 2 new tracks.
But don't worry about the sound effects Sir bcoz its only on the music video. In the actual song like in the spotify, it don't have those sound effects, just the song hehe. I became an EXO-L because of that song, that time I haven't seen the mv yet. It was just the song that involuntarily makes me happy.
You should really react to their song PROMISE. Since that song means a lot to exols. With the difficult time that both exo and fans experienced then. ruclips.net/video/QsH9qAWR5kE/видео.html here you can watch a live performance with subtitles.
Another iconic EXO song! They performed this in the closing ceremony of 2018 Winter Olympics.This was also the fist Kpop song to be played at the world famous Dubai Fountain Show
I you should have done the Olympics closing ceremony it was amazing and historical. Kai opening with Traditional Korean dance then into Growl closing the Olympics with Power. It’s amazing like a live concert 🎶 please do that next Brock 🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗🤗🤩🤩☺️ along with Power the first K-Pop song played at the Dubai Water Fountain show to music and EXO on the worlds tallest building in Dubai The Burj Khalifa EXO was the very first and it was The united Arab emirates who decided to do this.
True
The impulse to count EXO members is the starting point to becoming an EXOL for sure 😅
THIS. I am a baby exo-l and i don't even know when i started counting the number of members at the beginning of every performance i watched and checked who's missing.
same thoughts when he started counting the exos 😂
The war repackage cover album is so cool!! The cover is webtoon and it has comics book and storyline in it!! Suho as superman with that hairstyle😄
My kids love this MV. My boy even tried to draw the scene where they used the power. Of course it was all stick figures but i was hella proud.
love your reaction! you will love diamond + coming over + run this + drop that + power live from the elyxion concert.

This was the first kpop song (and EXO the first kpop artist) played in The Dubai Fountain, the world's biggest choreographed fountain.

Hope you can react to it (plus the speech in the end) because its such an emotional performance to both EXO and EXOLS 😭🤍 As always, thank you for reacting to EXO 🤍🤍🤍
Their concert performance of this song is also out of this WORLD 😭🤍

With all due respect to the others, but i say with conviction that EXO has the best b-sides in kpop .. Man, they have THE EVE (my fav, I think it's emotional attachment, because it was one of the first ones I was like "wow" ), SWEET LIES, FOREVER, GRAVITY, DIAMOND, ARTIFICIAL LOVE, GOING CRAZY, STRONGER, OH LA LA LA, 24/7, YA YA YA, PARADISE, BEEN THROUGH, WAIT, TOUCH IT, LADY LUCK .. Anyway, it could pass hours quoting much more ..
Anyway, they are awesome!

Also take notice, of the letter that is on the collar of the Kitten. If you look, you will see it's an L. It is thought that the kitten is supposed to represent us EXO-Ls. We are the ones that are supporting "EXO," dispensing power and giving them strength, etc. That's why Baekhyun is seen lovingly holding the kitten. If Baekhyun is the only one not under the Red Forces' control, then he is an EXO member, so he is protecting the Kitten (EXO-Ls).
In the "Power" MV, fan theories originally thought that once they defeat the robot and get their powers back, EXO are then sent to Earth to start their mission. That is why at the end of this MV you see Baekhyun being sent to Earth were he lands in the water. However, now maybe Baekhyun wasn't necessarily on Earth, but maybe, because he is the one that isn't under the Red Forces' control, this scene is showing us something else. The song you hear playing at the end of the MV is another song from their Power album -- it is called "Sweet Lies." (There is no MV for it because it's a B-side track.) Theories have also been that when the members all arrived on Earth none of them arrived together and they each landed in different locations all over the world (which is explained in EXO's "Call Me Baby" pathcode teaser videos), so that might be why at the end of the "Power" MV you see Baekhyun by himself floating in the water.
As you can see, even though this is one of their more recent songs and MVs the story in the MV is actually part of the very beginning of EXO's origin story, so this is an example of how their storyline is not in chronological order. We EXO-L's have to really pay attention to figure out where each part of their story fits within the storyline with each new song and MV release, including all their solo content and their sub-unit releases, etc.
Also, it's worth noting that if you were to pause the MV at the part in the beginning before the MV really starts, at the part where all the members are in that "club room" hanging out. You would see that everything in that room is there for a reason and it all gives clues to different things to do with EXO, such as the date of their next comeback, what the theme of the next MV might be, the title of the song, etc. The posters on the walls and even the way the members are positioned in the room and what they are doing is all another part of EXO's story, and it gives us a few more clues to what to expect in future chapters of EXO's epic novel or action adventure/mystery movie series. I encourage you, if you haven't already, to go back and look at this frame of the MV, you will be surprised the things you can find within just that one scene.
If you haven't already, you really should check out a comeback stage for "Power" because even though this MV doesn't have any dancing, there is choreography that goes along with the song and it gives the song a totally different vibe, ruclips.net/video/QxYzQzqrKOQ/видео.html. And when you see their concert performance of "Power", the concert version is the remixed version, so the choreography is different then what you will see in their comeback stage. "Power" was also used as one of the theme songs, along with their song "Growl," during the 2018 winter Olympics, and EXO even performed both songs during the closing ceremony.
Fun fact: If you purchase this album, one version comes with a comic book/graphic novel that continues EXO's storyline. And you only get to see those clues to the story if you own the album. Just another example of how EVERYTHING SM creates for EXO continues their concept and storyline. :D
A repackage album is basically a re-release album but with a few more songs added.
So Power of Music is The War album but + Sweet Lies, Power, etc.
Ohhh like a deluxe for western artists?
@@BrockTheDon ruclips.net/video/qi6vqNaEe14/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/wCw4dNlVjsQ/видео.html
plz Reaction to these videos
A repackage album is the same album plus 3 more songs. The power of music has all the song from the war album ( kokobop, the eve, forever, going crazy, etc) plus 3 more songs: power, sweet lies and boomerang.
The same way love shot is the repackage for don't mess up my Tempo album., and growl is for xoxo( wolf album), and Lotto is for EX'act ( lucky one and monster)
Mini albums and the winter albums don't have a repackage album. Obsession is the only full album that doesn't have a repackage album.
There is some debate about why they don’t have their powers here, the most popular is that they were taken and here they win them back. except Baekhyun who has his all along, but finishes in the Sweet Lies teaser in alone in water which is not his element. Power is very popular live and has been used in some iconic performances.
What is the reason baekhyun has less appearance in here??
@@noryjeansacorin9311 He still has his power orb, he doesn’t have to get it back. Popular theory is that he is not in the same place as the others - he dropped down into the water, perhaps from the spacecraft the rest were in as it came down, whether forced or through choice is unclear. Some think he may be on another planet - Suho’s water planet.
Ok but he only have few screen time...
@@noryjeansacorin9311 yes, very sad. One thought is that Sweet Lies may have meant to have a video - even if only for Concert purposes. Maybe we have yet to see the continuance as the time line of events does not correspond to the time line of MV releases.
Another video about EXO?🥹 I always look forward to it. Thank you for making a reaction for EXO! 🙆🏻♀️ Vocals and dances... they have POWER. ✨
Saw this comment under the mcountdown video and had the urge to post it here too:
Facts about Exo's Power:
• Exo's Power played at Dubai Fountain (Also Exo appeared at Burj Khalifa in Power era)
• Exo's Power played at FIFA World Cup 2018
• Exo's Power played at Olympics ceremonies TWICE
-Seoul winter olympics 2018 (even performed)
-Tokyo olympics 2020
->Conclusion: Power IS a powerful song.
Chanyeol tone as always enjoying, recomend you Far East Movement x Marshmellow feat. Chanyeol & Tinashe - Freal Luv
Next, electric kiss, groove, sign, damage, oasis...
Yes power is the title track its a repackage album thankyou for reacting more EXO i am excited everytime you react to my favorite kpop group of all time the story of power is their superpowers got by the redforce and they will get it back Please check more live performances
WHITENOISE+THUNDER+PLAYBOY+ARTIFICIALLOVE
🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😘😘😘
KAI’s stage presence is insane 🥹🔥🔥
Chanyeols part is always ur favorite.. loving it!
So in kpop industry there's a "full album" & "repackage album". In America, repackage is known more as "deluxe" version. So basically repackage or deluxe is the extension of full album. It's usually released a few months after it, containing all the songs in full album plus additional new songs in there(usually 2-4 new songs). They might comeback with slightly different concept between the two but overall still retain the same vibe of music.
So in this case "The War" is their 2017 full album with Kokobop as their title track. Then a few months later they released The War repackage, which is called "The Power of Music" with Power as their title track. They're basically the same but one is the "main album" whereas the other is "additional album".
I'm trying my best to explain here. I hope it's not too confusing😅 but that's just how kpop albums works, not just with EXO but also with most of them.
Please, check out 2018 Olympics closing ceremony with EXO, starting with Kai's traditional dance. ❤
We don't mind the spamming as long as it's EXO 😌
Kai's face expressions are iconic and even though others tried doing it as well, it's never like his 😎
"The Power Of Music" is a Repackage album for "The War" In the MV, the robot represents the red force who have taken EXO's powers so by defeating it, they took their powers BACK. The cat having the letter L as a pendant, represents EXO-Ls. Freeing EXO's powers.
There's a remix version to Power, they performed it during concerts and award shows. They also performed it at the closing ceremony of Winter Olympics at 2018, and is the FIRST KPOP SONG to ever be played on Burj Khalifa during a Dubai Fountain Show.
EXO never disappoint their fans they're so talented and hardworking
The MV is fun and creative, but their live stages of it got me love this song! I really miss their live performances…
Power is an energetic song!! One of my faves ❤
Power is my mood booster♥ Thank you for the reaction!
A repackage album is an album that comprised of all the songs from a comeback album plus new songs. EXO used to have 3 albums in a year before, 1st: Comeback album, 2nd: Repack album, 3rd: Winter album. Here’s an example, in July 2017, EXO had their Comeback with ‘The War’ album (Kokobop-title track) after few months, september 2017, they had their Repack album which is ‘The War: The Power of Music’ (Power-title track) and on December of the same year they had their Winter special album which is the ‘Universe’. So basically it’s a new album but consist of all of the war album plus few new songs hence called re-package.
Personally, i love this album in terms of concept, the physical album is soooo nice. It’s a comic type you’ll get power cards and a comic story, like you said comic vibe and you’re totally right. Power era is a crazy one, this song was played in a western football event - if im not mistaken, first kpop song played in Dubai fountain, EXO performed this as a closing performance for Winter Olympics.
This is too lengthy now, hehe. thank you for another exo reaction, as always.
Repackage albums are like deluxe albums. Basically the same album but with more songs. This one's kinda different though. They changed the title track to Power and basically the story/theme they're telling for the repack.
I am extremely happy because you are paying much attention to my babies, so I am here for it! Thank you soooooooo much!
I never be tired to say thank you for loving exo 💕💕
there are 2 EXO songs that i didn't like when i first watch them, it's wolf and Power.
but once i watch it performed live, i love it instantly. thank you for reacting to EXO!
LOVE YOU!
Thanks for reacting to EXO
Sweet Lies is one of my favorites as well.
Brock: Sorry for spamming EXO reactions.
Satisfied Exols: u kiddin'?
Also Brock: The smile Kai, cheeky. The stage presence.
Me: u under Kai's spell. jus sayin. lol
Happy 5 years to Power! Such uplifting and inspiring music especially before going to work hehe
EXO performed POWER in the closing ceremony of Winter Olympics LIVE not even recorded and that was FIRE. The anniversary was about a week ago
im literally living for your exo reactions lmao
😍😍 power yes ........ look you must react to this live but it never comes alone it would be unforgettable reaction if you react to it all at
it should be like deimond + coming over + drop that +POWER as ending part 🎉🎉🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨 plz do it soooooon
Up
The choreo for this is so dope.. thanks for the reaction.
So proud of this song. 🥰
I could watch you react to EXO all day, everyday. Thank you :)
One of playful exo comeback show🙏💙💙💙💙
EXO's albums confused me too at first.. But before they would release an album then after a couple of months re-released it again with a different title with the same songs together with some new songs. Thats why they call it repackaged. In this case it was 1st released as The War Album.. with Kokobop as its title track. The repackaged to The Power of Music with Power as a title track.
Also keep in mind during this Era in the comics that came with the album it was said that there's a traitor among us. So we know one member is working for the red force as well or being a spy. So far baekhyun and Xiumin are obviously suspicious in most of their mvs we even got them both pointing guns at themselves in LOVESHOT but other members also look sus in other mvs and vcr too but we still don't know for sure even to now. Oh and their latest mv DFTF is a continuation of power storyline 😎
No sabes lo feliz que me hace ver tus reacciones
love your exo reactions!!!!
you should check out the one at their concert. it was so hype !
Omg I've waited for your reaction to this song so much, thank you.♥♥
if you remember D.O. with the buzz cut that was not because the military service, it was because he was acting in a movie (Swing Kids) which requires him to cut his hair like that.. (note: most Korean men would only get the buzz cut when they first going into the military, they'd have a normal short hair when they got out) and yes, this is before everyone went to the military
EXO Marathon😭 Thank you Thank you Thank youuu
Subscribing right after you said you're sorry for spamming exo in your channel but you don't give a damn cuz their musics slay
the way u recognize sweet lies at the end of the mv😊
My fav 🔥
I just found out this song through twice in May 2022 great song exo-l forever
One of my fav lyrics.. was very healing during pandemic days
Yey!! More EXO content is always good! 😁Power is such a fun song and MV, it deserves more appreciation!
And yes, Kai's stage presence is just off the charts!
I soo agree to the MV sound effects being too loud/the actual song not being loud enough!! I always thought it was too bad that’s how they edited it!!
Also i liked this! I think it’s best to react to music shows live stages bec those are usually where you get the most essence of the original concept! The actual active members during that era, stage outfits and design! Usually concert stages are done months or years after so their stage outfits aren’t thematic to the song, or some members have gone to the military enlistment so singing parts are temporarily changed, concert versions are remixed etc☺️
7:20 Yeahh you understand the storyline
They performed Power in Winter Olympic 2018. Please react to whole Winter Olympic with EXO. The whole stage of them was fire
this is the first KPOP song to be played ON Dubai fountains !!!!
7:25 Yes Yes Yes right👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for your EXO REACTION
Love all the EXO content lately! Please keep them coming and may I add another request for White Noise + Thunder + Playboy + Artificial Love!
Spam EXO tracks all you want, Don, and you won't hear us, Aeris, complain even in the tiniest bit!!!
Yup, this MV is so reminiscent of the Power Rangers! In it EXO are fighting their perpetual enemy, the Red Force in the form of the robot RF-05 that stole their super power orbs.
My favorite lines from this track:
"When tiring days come, remember baby
The beautiful us
The power to get up again
It's in you!"
Fun Fact: EXO made history again with POWER as it was the first ever K-Pop song to be played in the Dubai Fountain Show, the world's biggest choreographed fountain system. The boys even flew to Dubai for its inaugural run.
SOY TAN FELIZ CON LAS REACCIONES
Aprecio demasiado que hagas esto
We knew of Exo's Continuous storyline but with Power mv it was then we all realized they had parallel universes in their storyline. Because each planet shown at the beginning of power mv represents a different dimension and time in Exo's storyline.
And you almost got it, Exo since the beginning had their powers but because they are constantly trying to hide the heart of TREE OF LIFE from the RED FORCE whose always chasing after them to destroy them. In power mv the red force robot had their power orbs but they got it back when they destroyed the robot. The storyline is confusing really because the mv are not released in order. It's like bits and pieces of puzzle pieces we try to piece together but given at mixed order and time. I remember in the CALL ME BABY era promo, it was said that after they got to earth and stayed for many generations they lost their powers and memories but when an eclipse occurs they either regain their power or memories i forgot which one.eris yall help use out on this one.
Thank u so much...
KING KAI ❤️🐻 I love ❤️
you're really observant to be able to catch the plot about the power orbs and how they get their superpower on the first watch.. I mean, I've watched this mv 20 times before I noticed Xiumin fall head first after trying to connect the cords 😭 I'd never understand anything if not for other exols explaining it
Next, exo drop that pleaseee
I love Chanyeol's voice too. I recommend Fly away by EXO-SC.
☆☆☆I love ☆☆☆EXO ☆☆☆☆☆
Perfect!!! I suggest you to watch their live concert performances, you won't regret it!
Hola me encantaria que reaccionaras AL DORADO LIVE es una presentacion iconica creeme la vas ha disfrutar
Watch the Olympic closer ceremony, maybe you can’t upload in RUclips because it will be blocked. But it’s amazing, don’t miss this!
OMG! Thank you.
The Red Force stole their powers and they reclaimed them
you should watch live concert ver :)
With this song exo closed in the Closing Ceremony of the PyeongChang Olympic Games
Please do react to live of diamond + coming over+ run this + drop that+power

Exo es lo mejor que me ha pasado 😭
The choreo is clearer in this vid
ruclips.net/video/swmr_t7ISoQ/видео.html
Please watch how Kai stood up magically in time stamp 2:36 definitely our dancing king!
Thanks for linking that video, i am a baby-L and i had sort of hear that kai had such a step in one of the choreos but i didn't know which. Also, while watching that, i noticed how Baekhyun also tried getting up like that behind Kai and ended up stumbling lmao😂😂
@@saumyaa65 Really? Haha I didnt notice. Baek you are a legend on your own so its okay. ☺️ They are actually really fans of each other all the members. Xiumin once reacted to Bambi and said he thought Kai was dancing instead of Baek. And Baek said it was the best compliment. 🥰
ruclips.net/video/AluvqqmO5X4/видео.html
@@CheG1224 i absolutely love their brotherhood and how they always support each other 🥰🥰
You should react to the remix version of POWER👐🏻
Exo releases albums but the repackaged ones after it have added bside tracks I believe. They did the same thing with LOVESHOT album the repackage album of it had 2 new tracks.
But don't worry about the sound effects Sir bcoz its only on the music video. In the actual song like in the spotify, it don't have those sound effects, just the song hehe. I became an EXO-L because of that song, that time I haven't seen the mv yet. It was just the song that involuntarily makes me happy.
You should really react to their song PROMISE. Since that song means a lot to exols. With the difficult time that both exo and fans experienced then. ruclips.net/video/QsH9qAWR5kE/видео.html here you can watch a live performance with subtitles.
EXO-CBX "Paper Cuts" live you should definitely check it out.
you gotta like Been through and 24/7
You should check out MAMA - their debut song- and you can get better the storyline :))
React to Power live..it's out of this world
