    EXO have so much influence on international pop culture that big western companies, such as Disney are coming to them and asking them to partner with them. "Lightsaber" was a collaboration between Disney, which owns the Star Wars franchise, and EXO as a way to help Disney promote their Star Wars movie "The Force Awakens".
    Disney actually approached SM Entertainment and asked them if they would be willing to create a song and MV centered around the Star Wars theme as a way to promote the upcoming release of the movie across Asia. So SM came up with "Lightsaber" -- which is actually a sort of remix of a song that SM already had also called "Lightsaber" -- and the accompanying MV. (The original version of "Lightsaber" was used in one of Kai's pre-debut teaser videos.)
    And because EXO is one of the biggest groups across Asia, with one of the largest fan bases, it's not surprising that "Lightsaber" as a song and MV got a lot of recognition around the world. And because of its popularity, SM came up with an epic iconic concert stage for the song as well.
    One of the reasons why SM agreed to partner with Disney on this project was because it fit so well with EXO's storyline and concept. As aliens from Planet Exo, it makes sense that EXO might be Jedis as well. :D
    Although, as you heard, they have a Korean version -- and, because it's EXO, they also have a Mandarin version of "Lightsaber" -- the song is actually one of EXO's Japanese songs. So, on top of it being a promotional video, because it was also released as a Japanese song, that is one reason why I think the MV is so short. Traditionally, most Japanese MVs use an abridged version of the song. I think It's part of Japan's marketing strategy to make you buy the song or album in order to hear the full song. So, most of the time, to hear the whole song you have to see it live in concert or listen to the studio version. I personally like the sound of the Japanese version the best, which you heard in the live concert performance of "Lightsaber." :D
    All the members of EXO sing on this track, but in the MV you only see Baekhyun, Kai and Sehun. I'm not sure why SM chose to only include these members in the MV, but I am sure it probably has to do with EXO's storyline.
    As you may have noticed, in the MV they seem to be on a mission. For example, we see Sehun in the hotel and he is walking down the hall with all the doors on both sides of them. As part of EXO's storyline, it is thought that EXO uses doors as portals to other dimensions or ways to travel throughout history. So theories speculate that one of the things the members are doing is searching for the right door that will allow them to escape or travel to each other, etc.
    Did you read the sign on the wall of the club? Do you know why Sehun had to turn in his lightsaber before entering the Jedi club? The sign says something like, "This is a lightsaber free zone, all weapons must be checked at the door."
    I also think that the scene with Sehun on the motorcycle is connected to the fact that we see Sehun sitting on a motorcycle in EXO's "Tempo" MV and also in their "Don't Fight the Feeling" MV.
    Also, at the very end we see the lights come back on in the dark hallway of the hotel. I think this is showing Baekhyun using his power of light. He may have turned the lights off to conceal something, then as he exits the space, the lights pop back on.
    And like everything that EXO does, flowers even play a part in their live stages. Flowers are a central part of EXO's storyline, so we often see flowers in things to do with EXO. Although I am not sure yet what the significance of blue roses is, blue roses seem to have an important part in the story as well. For example, we also see Sehun with a blue rose in their "Love Shot" MV.
    You also see during the live "Lightsaber" performance, leading into the rap section, on the floor they show an image of swirling flames, which is the combination of Chanyeol's fire power and Sehun's wind power, which are the two members who are the main rappers of the group.
    This concert is in Japan, at the Tokyo Dome, so there is 55,000 people in that audience. The Tokyo Dome is one of the largest concert venues in Japan and there is an unwritten rule that you can't perform there unless you are able to fill to capacity. EXO, and SM artists in general, are a big deal in Japan, so they have no problem selling out concerts. EXO are so popular that they sell out concerts in 0.2 seconds. The Tokyo Dome concert promoters actually call SM and ask them when they want to hold their next concert because they know that they will have no problem selling tickets and most likely will even have to hold multiple day events to accommodate all the fans who want to attend.
    And as you saw, EXO has one of the largest stage setups, complete with a giant rain machine and moat that was built special for this concert tour. The members get wet several times throughout this concert.
    Rumor has it that an executive from Disney happened to catch EXO's performance of "El Dorado" at one of their concerts -- in which EXO also has choreography that uses lightsaber-like lightsticks -- and that's how they were inspired with the idea to ask EXO to collaborate with them on this Star Wars project.
    Also, as one of the big 3 entertainment companies in Korea and around the world, SM has had a relationship with Disney for a long time now. SM has partnered with Disney to produce programs for Disney Channel Korea in the past. Many of the members of NCT got their start pre-debut as members of Korea's Mickey Mouse Club and they starred on the well known variety show which aired on Disney Channel Korea.
    The show was hosted by Leeteuk from Super Junior and the guests on the show each week were SM artists.
    And NCT-127 also performed on Mckey's 90th birthday celebration TV special in the U.S. a few years ago, as well.

    Its so funny watching an EXO live performance for the first time makes you always think it’s the best but they serve another stage which makes you rethink your favorite stage. That’s how dope they perform in their concert. No wonder they hold the title as THE WORLD’S FASTEST SOLD OUT CONCERT in just 0.2 sec. Their concert is insanely out of this world. I can’t wait for your reaction to MAMA + MONSTER + WOLF (LIVE IN JAPAN) ruclips.net/video/wCw4dNlVjsQ/видео.html THIS IS MINDBLOWING PERFORMANCE!!!

    Each member of exo has their own numbers.
    Xiumin-99
    Suho-1
    Lay-10
    Baekhyun-4
    Chen-21
    Chanyeol-61
    D.O-12
    Kai-88
    Sehun-94
    Theories say that they have numbers because red forces treat them like test subjects not like a human.

    If you would want to see the lightsaber action more clearly you can also watch the live stage in Seoul, the lighting of the stage is better on that one.. Also there is another version where Kai and Sehun dance/fight with the lightsabers, I think it was at MAMA 2015 music awards :-)

    Chen 21: Birthday
    D.O. 12: Bday & representation of 12 members (back then)
    Kai 88: represents him as the main dancer. Cuz Hip-hop together as 'HH' is 88, H is the 8th letter in the alphabet. He chose it for this reason, not necessarily for their united jerseys for their album XOXO
    Sehun 94: Birth Year
