I hope u can do Ga In - Bloom vs Fxxk U or Paradise Lost. Troublemaker - Troublemaker vs Now PS. Did u watch Produce48? Because if u did can u let them react to Rumor vs Rollin' Rollin? The one with the original team?
Thats exactly what exo is doing since EXACT honestly they got this extremely polished clean image but are always showing a dirty heavy obscure side they got both extremes so well done it turns into an unique characteristic of them
@@CookiesAreNoice There's a repetitive sound effect used in the chorus that sounds like a bed squeaking from forceful movement on top of it. i.e It's an allusion to a sound that could happen during sex. I hope that clears up your confusion! :)
APADO GWAENCHANA yeah people don't really notice that Sehun's lower register is so dark, connected & heavy despite him being an untrained singer. It'd be really useful if SM trains his voice more & use him more on songs since all members except Chanyeol have voices that shine more in higher area.
One thing that I've always thought about is that SM should train EXO to sing acappela in live shows, like, using Sehun's and Chanyeol's voices as the base and the other boys doing other stuff. IT WOULD BE SO AWESOME TO LISTEN TO THEM HARMONIZING. EXO Ls would go craaaazy 😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤
The producer said a lot of companies were offering him to make a song like tempo but he said he can’t make a song like tempo anymore so he declined them, exo really pulled this off
2:38 see this is why i'll never take sehun antis seriously. they keep insisting that sehun can't sing yet here classical musicians (people who actually knows what they're talking about) are, complimenting sehun for his cool and unique vocal qualities. haters gonna hate, i guess.
Sehun is somewhat like Yoona in their own groups, often called for not singing well but they have unique voice that does not just always fit in the group' songs
When they debuted I legit thought sehun's voice is not as good as the others tho (don't attack me, I was 13) but I recognize his voice has gotten better as years come and now he's great. I do love them all lol
He doesn't really have a singing voice but it does sound VERY pleasing when he raps. I also enjoy his rap flow since it's different from the typical "kpop rapper voice" ( deep, husky, loud ).
you asked about the low note who did that! i didn't see any replies so i will tell you it was chen! one of the main vocalists they mentioned it in their showcase that chen does the really low dum dum dum part in the background of the acapella!
kinda weird that most of the fans were thinking about that, i mean, i'm not that innocent and am a hard stan sometimes, but that's not the first thing that i thought just like those reactors. lol
Exo seems to focus more on the grounded qualities of the music a human can produce. Their rapping and vocals are very well trained and the melodies are always well written. They also focus on their dances. Their choreography tends to be the most challenging out of kpop dances
Haters: "Sehun can't sing" Meanwhile *sehun's part playing* Lindsey: "THIS GUYS VOCAL QUALITY REALLY COOL. THOUGH IT LIKE SUPER DEEP AND.." David: "IT'S SO UNIQUE" Lindsey: "VERY UNIQUE" U see it bruh?
@@Anonymous-ve7pi The comment basically meant Sehun is no good other than for dancing. But yeah, Sehun actually has a very nice vocal colour even for singing. It shows in Smile On My Face and Wait.
Not my Name "other than for singing" means he's onlyy suitable for singing which is NOT what the comment said. The comment clearly says that haters go "Sehun can't sing". Then OP went to give an incorrect example of "singing" to prove the haters wrong...but he's rapping there, not singing, and the reactors are complimenting his deep voice, not his singing (cause he wasn't even singing there).
The song is not about "dont steal my girl." Maybe its misinterpreted in Englsh or something idk (dont wanna blaim the reactor). I guess "to keep her by my side" part might sound like a kidnapper in English?? In Korean its more like "to make her stay by my side." The couple in this song has just started dating (the girlfriend still feels shy and awkward) and the boyfriend hopes that his girlfriend falls for him as fast as he is falling for her. For that, the guy wants to make efforts so that the girl doesnt leave him. Its most obviois with the lines like "however you want it, teach me (meaning he will follow)," and "if you dont want to be by urside, msg me (meaning he will come out to accompany), and "there is no such thing like "LIE" to me (meaning he will be sincere)"
No, that is not it. The couple in this song have separated/broken up for some time. Now the guy is trying to get back to the girl. Some other man has already stolen the girl from the guy. That is why the guy warns the other man not to steal the girl, and at the same time the guy is trying to get the girl back, and keep her by his side from now on. That is the true meaning of tempo.
@@maggiewy0905 Although I believe that interpretation of literature is up to readers/listeners, I really can't find any lines that hint what you wrote, can you quote examples? :-o?? thanks!
kellimm Please read the English translation of Tempo Chinese lyrics. The translation is bad, but at least it explicitly mention “opponent” and “memory”. Btw I can read Chinese. I know international fans don’t care about TEMPO Chinese lyrics at all, and it really shows.
I'm not always commenting, but today I need to. You do know that EXO's Korean and Chinese lyrics are usually not literal translations of each other, e.g. Korean and Chinese meanings (or English translations) of the lyrics may differ in order to fit the beat amongst other things? Hence, I can agree to both of your interpretations :) Enjoy music with an open mind!
@@xXMayuraXx You are wrong. I understand both Korean and Chinese. EXO's Korean and Chinese lyrics are NOT literal translation, BUT THE MEANING AND TOPIC ARE ALWAYS THE SAME. This is not my interpretation. Sehun literally once said "Chinese version and Korean version have the same meaning ". Hence, I suggest you learn one of the language, either Korean or Chinese, to begin with.
I think Tempo is the most musically interesting title track from EXO. Umu said the lyrics is about them telling other boys to keep away from their girl but I always thought that the lyrics were telling the GIRL to not mess up their tempo, kind of like don’t play hard to get, follow the rhythm, etc. I got that from the subs in the MV. 🤔
e x o rcized as Umu said - when Tempo was first introduce as a title track before its official release, this was the official lyrics message of the song according to SM ... However to this day I don’t actually see it in lyrics either 😃 I also wondered if just me who doesn’t see this message to correspond with the actual lyrics, or SM just interpreted the lyrics wrongly...
yeah I don't think that's what the song is about at least the lyrics I've read. Plus so what lol is pop, we are not asking them to write about saving the world or something LOLOL
No, you misunderstood the lyrics. "Don't mess up my tempo" is a warning to other men. The singer warn other mens "not to steal their girl", and at the same time the singer also woo the girl. Both meanings are common theme for exo's title songs, ever since the growl and wolf era.
@@Sara-uk5eg That is the actual meaning of the song: DON'T STEAL MY GIRL. It is that simple. I don't understand why some international fans just deny that is the theme of the song. It's just K-pop, not that deep, take it or leave it.
Fall for EXO - king of humble better yet show him that one video where they harmonized spontaneously and no rehearse involved. bit will show that they can be on pitch on the spot lol
they said sehun’s voice quality is really good and unique . SM ! thats why give him lines like that okay . im not an exo-l but i feel like sehun’s lines are always almost non existent in their title songs
Really glad they've been giving him more substantial lines now. He's been doing pretty well, had a proper solo track in the last concert tour, had a duet released with Chanyeol, given more lines as a rapper and, surprisingly, as a singer, and several dancing solos on special stages. He's improved so much across all departments (e.g. his rapping flow).
I'm pretty sure all this time SM trained him and Sehun worked so hard on it. SM known for their training sytems...as long as the idol willing to work hard on it.
They liked Sehun’s voice. This is why SM needs to consistently give him more lines. They did it right with Tempo and I hope he gets more in the future.
"the tempo stays the same, the beat changes." we can only learn abt this from this channel. reacttothek, yall rock. ps. its my nth times re-watching this reaction, idk why. i just like it.
Well actually saying "don't mess up my tempo" while messing up their OWN tempo was the whole point cause no one else can mess up their tempo but themselves.genius huh.
“You’re just mad that you like it” Yes, Love Shot stans! Hear that? Hear that? HAHA THAT’S Y’ALL WISHING TO BE A TEMPO STAN but don’t worry it’s not too late and will never be STAN TEMPO AND YOU STAN ART ITSELF
@@mx.n.3682 lmaoo yeah, EXOLs just messing around because Love Shot got more views than Tempo when Tempo is actually-- musically speaking -- *a masterpiece* but people and gp tend to listen to Love Shot because the mv got more sexy vibes lol
Shiera Lee Love Shot isn't that musically interesting so prob that's why they didn't react to it. In fact Umu wasn't gonna put Tempo into reaction list if not for the song's unique & complex musical structure & composition.
@@resurgingflame I get what you're saying but not all of the songs they reacted to are complicated. Love Shot's composition might not be that complex but isn't average too. Since they've done to this reaction, they could've just easily added love shot too. I guess thats what op is tryna say
@@strawberrycoon5382 Umu's been focusing more on songs that they can give comments on the composition or other music theory related things since the start of Season 2. Because that's what this channel brings as it's unique feature. If it's not musically complex then their reactions are the same as any other channel's. Given the number of reactors and their reactions are paired, I can also see why Umu does restrict to songs that are musically complex. There's only so much time in the day and it's not like she's running out of musically complex songs for them to react to. Since Love Shot's in the list of songs they will not be reacting to, it sounds like it's just not complex enough to make the cut.
dave. You mean Henry? The one with glasses & chubby cheeks right? I still don't understand & disagree of why he said the rap is over the top, I mean it's just the 2 verses & I actually think it's a really well flowed & connected to the rest of the song :\
What Henry said about the rap part is smtg I at all agree with bc let's be honest, neither are their verses too long or abrupt. They fit perfectly with the flow of the song so.. But I guess it's everyone's own opinions on what they prefer.
Hmmm… I don’t really interpret the song as “don’t steal my girl”. I believe the song is about finally falling in love with someone and wanting them to reciprocate your feelings. The song creates the scenario that they see each other everyday because they're both interested, except he's fallen in love and wants to make it official. He also wants to know that she loves him too. The first and second verses are two separate dates. In both of them, he’s trying to impress her. Tempo is referring to the momentum he’s gaining to win her affection. If she rejects him, the momentum would be lost. The delivery is passionate because he’s never fallen in love before, “I can’t believe / I’ve been waiting for this feeling” and “you’re my one and only savior”. LOVE this channel, by the way. Sorry for the essay. 😅😅😅
EXO-NATIONS PICK Exo is the name but they always use xo and they are huge in all aisan countries like china korea philipiness arabia etc.Even though they havent signed up with any western companies they still manage to have impressive feats in western charts like billboard and theyr album the war topped 1 on itunes in more than 70+ countries.Their lates album dont mess up my tempo was even better selling one million preordered copies They have 8 korean members and 1 chinese member.

That "I like EXO! Fight me!" is soooo me! HAHAHAHAHA FIGHT ME, EXO IS THE KING OF VOCALS WHEN IT COMES TO GROUP VOCAL. EVERY INDIVIDUAL CAN MAKE YOU SMILE. EVEN THEIR RAPPER CAN SING WELL!!💙💙💙
This is why i love kpop. They dare to blend amazing vocals and rap along with acapella and then that turns out amazing!! I dont think others can do this. It is difficult as hell to produce a good music and again they set the bar high. Standard of kpop is really high!!
Lindsey: This guy's vocal quality is really cool, though. It's like super deep Both: *Yeah, its so unique* Lindsey you are my spirit animal. Like you know how to appreaciate good things. She also likes Amber, f(x) and BLACKPINK. I'm so proud Sehunnie is getting the recognition he deserves. Yes haters! Eat s**t And ofcourse as expected, they love the acapella. Well done. I can rest in peace now
this song is just amazing, it was si well produced and composed that every parts just impresses more,, i love EXO'S vocals truly,, they are so diverse but still true to their RNB roots,,, tempo is that song ,it showcases their talents, creativity and passion towards music,, the acapella bridge being added was the best decision ever,, they sang that part full of emotions and passion, in short this is a musical masterpiece,
I really love the comment about how the song shows off their different vocal qualities! As an exo-L, you can hear how they’ve vocally blossomed as individuals from when they’ve debuted. You guys have said in the past that exo was amazing as a unit, but as the years go by, they’ll definitely to continue to distinguish themselves ❤️
The zoom in during the acapella breakdown is literally how I feel every time I hear this hahaha I wonder how everyone would feel about "Artificial Love" - it wasn't uber popular, but it definitely has interesting layers to it.
they have to listen to the instrumental version of the song but just the bridge/breakdown/Acapella part because there are so many parts they couldn't hear in the actual song
I've been waiting this.... from the "Tempo" producer....it's really sound "squeking bed", there is article about it in Billboard website...:), this is it www.billboard.com/articles/columns/k-town/8491589/exo-love-shot-making-of
you can check out from this link, it's the producers and songwriters' break down for all songs in the album: www.billboard.com/articles/columns/k-town/8491589/exo-love-shot-making-of
I really love reaction in this channel because their reaction is really pure for the music. So different from others and give me many new things to learn. Don't mess up my tempo is so great. Piano, acapella, everything in this song really really shock me. After a long time, this is an amazing comeback for EXO. Thank you very much
Oh my god I'm late to the game but I was SO excited to see this on this channel with the acapella and the *bed squeaks* and all lmaoo. Also it's really dope that Lindsey and Davis pointed out Sehun's voice! Chanyeol always gets the comments for his deep ass voice but Sehun's is also worth pointing out bc its quite unique
I'm living for the musical analysis in these videos. Usually it's just people reacting to the visuals and the songs in general but actually hearing classical musicians analyse the music in such a way is so much more interesting to me

Yesssssss that's why I'm glad theyre giving him longer lines now 😭 and noticeable too😆
you forgot about lay :')
Really glad they've been giving him more substantial lines now. He's been doing pretty well, had a proper solo track in the last concert tour, had a duet released with Chanyeol, given more lines as a rapper and, surprisingly, as a singer, and several dancing solos on special stages. He's improved so much across all departments (e.g. his rapping flow).
I'm pretty sure all this time SM trained him and Sehun worked so hard on it. SM known for their training sytems...as long as the idol willing to work hard on it.
Rachel Cheng well , they didn’t talk about lay ... :”) and lay has no line in the korean ver .. so ... :”)
They liked Sehun’s voice. This is why SM needs to consistently give him more lines. They did it right with Tempo and I hope he gets more in the future.
Yesss!! His deep unique voice needs to be exposed more
"the tempo stays the same, the beat changes."
we can only learn abt this from this channel.
reacttothek, yall rock.
ps. its my nth times re-watching this reaction, idk why. i just like it.
자막 달아주신 분 정말 진짜 너무나도 감사드립니다. 올 한해 복 다 가져가시오
"Their vocal recording is so incredible" yeah yeah everyone knows how good they are🤗🤗💕💕
Tempo is the best release by male group in 2018 imo
FACTS

I HAVE NEVER CLICKED SOMETHING SO FAST OMG JFJDGSJS WHO ELSE WITH ME

tempo is literally a masterpiece
love how the guy is really amazed at Kyungsoo riffs. Kyungsoo has so little lines in this song but his adlibs still caught every reactors' attention
Well actually saying "don't mess up my tempo" while messing up their OWN tempo was the whole point cause no one else can mess up their tempo but themselves.genius huh.
They never mess up their tempo tho, and in this video the girl explains it
@@AnaMargaridaSings you mean Hugo? he's a guy 😂
@@21dzz hahaha sorry I forgot who said it in the video, my memory is bad, idk why I was thinking it was a girl 😂 oops
4:12, jeremy who said it
@@ahmadrifaldi4591 hugo, the one explained their tempo is actually never messed up
One day SM will recognise the gem that is Sehunny’s voice 😭
EXO is always ahead of their time, just straight facts
“You’re just mad that you like it”
Yes, Love Shot stans! Hear that? Hear that? HAHA THAT’S Y’ALL WISHING TO BE A TEMPO STAN but don’t worry it’s not too late and will never be
STAN TEMPO AND YOU STAN ART ITSELF
Tbh, I used to not like Tempo, but suddenly I'm super obsessed.
A Jae In the Life of Day Yes, be obsessed because it’s literally a masterpiece and a huge vocal flex!
Both songs are amazing though?
@@mx.n.3682 lmaoo yeah, EXOLs just messing around because Love Shot got more views than Tempo when Tempo is actually-- musically speaking -- *a masterpiece* but people and gp tend to listen to Love Shot because the mv got more sexy vibes lol
@@ale-rm7fn faxx tempo is better for me.
4:30 yes talk about my king Kyungsoo’s incredible vocal prowess
aw i hope it will be love shot vs dont mess up my tempo
Tbh me too :(
Shiera Lee Love Shot isn't that musically interesting so prob that's why they didn't react to it. In fact Umu wasn't gonna put Tempo into reaction list if not for the song's unique & complex musical structure & composition.
@@resurgingflame I get what you're saying but not all of the songs they reacted to are complicated. Love Shot's composition might not be that complex but isn't average too. Since they've done to this reaction, they could've just easily added love shot too. I guess thats what op is tryna say
@@strawberrycoon5382 Umu's been focusing more on songs that they can give comments on the composition or other music theory related things since the start of Season 2. Because that's what this channel brings as it's unique feature. If it's not musically complex then their reactions are the same as any other channel's. Given the number of reactors and their reactions are paired, I can also see why Umu does restrict to songs that are musically complex. There's only so much time in the day and it's not like she's running out of musically complex songs for them to react to. Since Love Shot's in the list of songs they will not be reacting to, it sounds like it's just not complex enough to make the cut.
@@strawberrycoon5382 but it's a vs.. it would be pointless then bc most of them would've pick the complex one...
Elizabeth: I like EXO. Fight me.
Every person after hearing "Tempo" xD
2:38 I love an intellectual! 👏 but sadly SM doesn't appreciate much sehun's beautiful unique voice 😤
"They probably could do a variant of that live"
They can and did the entire thing live-- highnotes, harmonies, riffs, and all
Clearly Peyton is the only one who knows R&B and the classic bed squeaks I was astonished that they didn't 😂😂
It's funny because people want more rap from exo because they are mostly vocal and someone said too much rap lol
Anyway a lot went into making this song in particular so its interesting to see what sounds came from what and how they are layered
dave. You mean Henry? The one with glasses & chubby cheeks right? I still don't understand & disagree of why he said the rap is over the top, I mean it's just the 2 verses & I actually think it's a really well flowed & connected to the rest of the song :\
@@resurgingflame same. 😂 he's just mad because he likes it.
What Henry said about the rap part is smtg I at all agree with bc let's be honest, neither are their verses too long or abrupt. They fit perfectly with the flow of the song so.. But I guess it's everyone's own opinions on what they prefer.
He was the one who also said he needs ‘more rap’ part in another exo reaction video (I think it was cbx hey mama). So idk and Idc about his opinions
The reaction video that i've been waiting for since the album release hahaha😍
*_Yes finally! I’ve been waiting so long for this - THANK YOU!_*
My reaction to tempo: 5:32
Hmmm… I don’t really interpret the song as “don’t steal my girl”. I believe the song is about finally falling in love with someone and wanting them to reciprocate your feelings. The song creates the scenario that they see each other everyday because they're both interested, except he's fallen in love and wants to make it official. He also wants to know that she loves him too.
The first and second verses are two separate dates. In both of them, he’s trying to impress her. Tempo is referring to the momentum he’s gaining to win her affection. If she rejects him, the momentum would be lost. The delivery is passionate because he’s never fallen in love before, “I can’t believe / I’ve been waiting for this feeling” and “you’re my one and only savior”.
LOVE this channel, by the way. Sorry for the essay. 😅😅😅
Well said!
I never get bored in rewatching their reactions especially to EXO and more especially to TEMPO
Lmao I love how pure they all were- the last thing anyone thought of was squeaking bed haha
I have been waiting
*too long*
Yas! Praise EXO, the Kings of QUALITY!
Stan Tempo their most musically superior track! :)
Yes
Samee
Omgggg I appreciate that girl saying that Sehun's voice is so uniqueee ahhh
King Kyungsoo doing hard riffs effortlessly again 🙌
Henry: "dOn'T sTeAL mY giRL...i'm just so tired of that being the crux of male pop music."
what an intellectual.
I love this song but liTERALLY
Agreed 100%. It's really, reaaalllyy cringy. And using the words "baby girl" ugh.
When he said that I had to give him a thumbs up on my screen because gurl... AMEN. I love the song but the meaning is so uGH
Sounds more like you're whining about nothing to me, but you do you I guess
But thats not always the crux of male pop music tho or at least not for exo, they always come back with something different..

Exo For life their total awards is actually reaching 500 already tho...
That's a sharp not a hashtag. Okay i love that shirt.
No, it's a pound sign.
Huehuehue.
"I can't believe" is right. This song is one of my favourites!!
That "I like EXO! Fight me!" is soooo me! HAHAHAHAHA FIGHT ME, EXO IS THE KING OF VOCALS WHEN IT COMES TO GROUP VOCAL. EVERY INDIVIDUAL CAN MAKE YOU SMILE. EVEN THEIR RAPPER CAN SING WELL!!💙💙💙
This is why i love kpop. They dare to blend amazing vocals and rap along with acapella and then that turns out amazing!! I dont think others can do this. It is difficult as hell to produce a good music and again they set the bar high. Standard of kpop is really high!!
Yeah, I never saw acapella and rap in 1 song before. Very interesting blend and it works.
Exo is the only group in KPOP industries that use acapella in their song..😎
Lindsey: This guy's vocal quality is really cool, though. It's like super deep
Both: *Yeah, its so unique*
Lindsey you are my spirit animal. Like you know how to appreaciate good things. She also likes Amber, f(x) and BLACKPINK.
I'm so proud Sehunnie is getting the recognition he deserves. Yes haters! Eat s**t
And ofcourse as expected, they love the acapella.
Well done. I can rest in peace now
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! EVERY MINUTE, I KEEP REFRESHING YOUR CHANNEL!! AAAAAHHH!!
The most of harmony are made by xiumin vocal
5:33 "You're just mad, that you like it" LOL
Yes, they do the acapella part live. 😉
sehun my kpop boy
Thank god they recognized sehun’ voice!!! MY BABY DESERVES IT
this song is just amazing, it was si well produced and composed that every parts just impresses more,, i love EXO'S vocals truly,, they are so diverse but still true to their RNB roots,,, tempo is that song ,it showcases their talents, creativity and passion towards music,, the acapella bridge being added was the best decision ever,, they sang that part full of emotions and passion, in short this is a musical masterpiece,
헐 침대소리...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 는 첨 알았네 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ대애박
제발 템포같은거 또 나왔음 좋겠다 진짜 너무 좋아 템포는
저런 퀄 케이팝 찾기 참 쉽지 않음 ㅠㅠ
I. HAVE. NEVER. CLICKED. THIS. FAST. BEFORE.
Them: I LOVE ACAPELLAAA
Me: *take a sip of tea* not surprised.
charlotte being all pure and then went lenny face and peyton's oh god..... 😂😂😂😂 mayhaps i stan you guys
I really love the comment about how the song shows off their different vocal qualities! As an exo-L, you can hear how they’ve vocally blossomed as individuals from when they’ve debuted. You guys have said in the past that exo was amazing as a unit, but as the years go by, they’ll definitely to continue to distinguish themselves ❤️
I was here to re-watch it just to learning again n again how much exo's vocal worth the whole love
The zoom in during the acapella breakdown is literally how I feel every time I hear this hahaha I wonder how everyone would feel about "Artificial Love" - it wasn't uber popular, but it definitely has interesting layers to it.
entertaining and informative as always !! side note: I truly appreciate how honest everyone is each time.
Their everything is sooo unique(their face, vocal, dance, etc) and thats why I love them♡♡
they have to listen to the instrumental version of the song but just the bridge/breakdown/Acapella part because there are so many parts they couldn't hear in the actual song
They have some of THE best vocals of the industry and i still cannot get over that damn bridge
"Don't mess up my tempo" is considered the Bohemian Rapsody of Kpop. Someone had to say it.
The kpop gods were calling me and I ran here.
I've been waiting for this AAAAAA THANK YOUUUUU
아카펠라 부분은 진짜 너무 좋았음 보컬강조하는 노래 자주 내줬으면 좋겠다
Based on several reaction videos, Elizabeth is such a living classical music encyclopedia. 😁
8:33 I like this Guy 🥺🥺 i like how he appreciate Kyungsoo's riffs and run and Exo's vocals.
I've been waiting for this!! DAMNNN!! THANK YOUUU!!!

I really love reaction in this channel because their reaction is really pure for the music. So different from others and give me many new things to learn.
Don't mess up my tempo is so great. Piano, acapella, everything in this song really really shock me. After a long time, this is an amazing comeback for EXO.
Thank you very much
Oh my god I'm late to the game but I was SO excited to see this on this channel with the acapella and the *bed squeaks* and all lmaoo. Also it's really dope that Lindsey and Davis pointed out Sehun's voice! Chanyeol always gets the comments for his deep ass voice but Sehun's is also worth pointing out bc its quite unique
5:21 Exo-l's, I think we have a new memeber in our fandom❤❤❤
Finally!! This is a video that I've been waiting for since EXO's comeback!! Thanks for the review >.
Thank you for reacting. i've been waiting for a long time. P;ease react to more exo!!!
이 리액션 영상 볼때마다 정말 뽕차오름... 템포 노래 나오자마자 들었을 때 진짜 ㅜㅜ 충격 그 자체였고 그자리에서 몇 번이고 내리 들었음,,, 스엠이놈들 빨리 활동 내놓으란말이다!!!!ㅠㅠㅠ
I'm living for the musical analysis in these videos. Usually it's just people reacting to the visuals and the songs in general but actually hearing classical musicians analyse the music in such a way is so much more interesting to me
