OT11 Happy Camp, finally :')

[HD] EXO - 140705 Happy Camp 快乐大本营 (eng subbed)

 

Hi guys. :)

Believe it or not, ever since Kris became Yifan to us, I haven't had the heart to watch this because this is the show where OT11 has talked about what had happened.

It took me almost a year to face this video because I've read what the others thought of the members' messages.

Being Yifan was my bias, I don't think I could handle the members' reaction first hand because I, myself, isn't very happy with how Yifan decided to end things.

 

Here are my thoughts regarding the Chinese members' side:

Luhan - he was pretty vague here already compared to Tao and Lay's reactions. I dare say that he has been contemplating the thought of leaving EXO already. He might've just been waiting for the concert to be finished or he was waiting for some compromise from their company. When they did this, he probably has 80% sticking with EXO. I think that he really didn't want to leave but given the circumstances when he did, I could hardly blame him. :|

Lay - for some reason, I think Lay knew about Yifan's plans. From the tone of his words, it seemed like he tried convincing Yifan to stay when he talked about that yes, what they do is tiring but they can endure it. I can see that he's hurt because even after he tried stopping the other from leaving, he still did.

Tao - oh dear, that baby was totally hurt and disappointed. I've admired Tao for his transparency and kinda sass and his message was a good mix of those two. It clenched my heart when he thanks the members for not leaving EXO, for not leaving him. I've seen how close he is (or was) to Yifan through his statement. As I see it, Tao felt like he lost one of his good support systems and he has put up a shield to cover up his vulnerability that was exposed when one of his most trusted friend has left.

 

But all we could do is talk about things and believe whatever reaches us. That will be the truth and the reality that we know.

I want to believe that Yifan has his damn good reasons for doing what he's doing. I just hope that it isn't bull because if it is, I would be more than willing to smack him on the head.

It still hurts when people accuse him of being a traitor just because Yifan has done well on the engagements that he had when he has left. They say that the claim for health issues was questioned. Why didn't they think that maybe Yifan's condition won't affect activites such as acting because that won't need hours nad hours and that they had?

 

IDEK why I'm posting this. Everything is solely on my opinion so I'm not guaranteeing that what I wrote is in anywhere near is,

same goes for me TT^TT but it was their XOXO program (?) or whatever, 'till now, I haven't tried watching it or once I think but I've never get to finish even the first episode :( I downloaded the video of this Happy Camp when Kris' case was still fresh for me, it was so painful to watch that I wanted to cry my heart out so I leave it for months before I got my courage to face the situation. I'm so so so sad... like everyday... it's so hard for me to smile too. Although Kris wasn't my bias but being with the EXO with 12 members, seeing someone leaving was much more heartbreaking. I really miss him T~T

I don't know what a good reason would be though. In my opinion, I would say good for him even if he wants a greener pasture because who wouldn't? Everyone has their ambitions for their professional career and he might find staying with EXO at this point in time is no longer for him. But this reason seems like the one that most people (maybe including s) find unjustifiable.

He's probably not that patient to wait for opportunities to pass. If he aspires to be in acting/singing or whatever he can't seem to do in EXO, he could have done acting the way Siwon had. Siwon had missed many live Suju-M performances to fit in his acting schedule. I've heard he had to film some part of the music video separately from his group. I don't know when SM started to allow individual activities for Siwon but EXO was still a new group at the time, so having members miss a performance will not work for the group cohesive image. I guess the timing wasn't great for Kris to finally realize staying with EXO was not really what he wants to do. But then again, he wouldn't know if he didn't try it.

People thinking of him as a traitor are either too emotionally attached to the group formation of EXO or there is some undercurrent of bias against Kris for being a non-Korean or a Chinese. How can he be a traitor unless loyalty is involved? Is Kris liable to be loyal to his group? Is he required to be loyal to SM? Is he necessarily not loyal to his fans because he left EXO, but he is still performing for his fans? This whole traitor thing is BS cooked up by media in my opinion because I cannot define loyalty in this context. Leaving a group has no correlation to betrayal; SES disbanded and they are still friends with each other. I think it's a matter of where the fine line between work and personal matters blur. There is no loyalty to speak of in work, only professionalism.

I can't blame you dear coz I did the same but not that long as yours coz me it was just like after 2 months that I decided to watch that show..but..I didn't watch the last part honestly not until when my sister stayed at my place last weekend and we kind of like had an EXO marathon thing(me insisting of course, sis is not an EXO fan but not a hater as well but looks like she's starting to be one :D)......and just then that I realized that I didn't have the courage to watch that episode alone coz i was in a crying mess after that episode and coincidentally, like you I was kind of focused on Luhan, you know, I was kind of trying to get some hints or signs that he's gonna end up leaving as well.. and I just can't believe that there is also someone out there...YOU...who is having the same feelings as mine.... :)
And believe it or not, I haven't seen even a single fancam vids of EXO's new concert..YES, not a single one though I have some pictures of them of that event for my keeps...I just can't ,I don't know why but I just can't...really...especially when I knew and saw some pictures of them crying.
I find it funny and sometimes I think I'm stupid coz everytime I see group pictures of them I unconsciously do a head count though I know there's only eleven (before Luhan left) or ten of them now but it's as if I'll end up with a 12 when I do the counting....Kris was not my bias but i am a bit more into M than K so I was really affected with his leaving exo and just realized Luhan was my bias all along when he left exo...and I is still in denial up to this moment but trying my best to look at the brighter side of everything...I still am supporting the 12 of them and a hard core FAN, I am calling myself...I just wish all of them happiness and more success especially Kris and Luhan.
Sorry dear, I talk a lot again...don't hate me okay? coz this post of yours just reminded me of what had happened last weekend.. :(
Have a great day sweetheart..SMILE :)

It kind of heartbreaking to watch that episode, you know...I can't stop my tears from flowing...How the members pour their feelings on that topic and they cried in the stage...Just nerve wrecking...I felt like smacking Kris' head at that time and told him to went back into Exo...Lol..But, past is the past..We can't change it...
