[START] Beginning of a new challenge!

- Finally being able to enter the big stage, before that, how were you feeling?

All: Prior to debut we’ve waited for quite a long period of time, to be able to do better, during the waiting time we practised non stop. But because we were unsure if we could do as expected, we were still a little nervous, of course it was filled with unlimited anticipation too

- What was the most unforgettable experience ever since debut?

All: The most unforgettable event would be debut stage in China on the 8th of April, to be performing with various mainland senior artistes on the same stage, we were nervous yet excited. The other really unforgettable point would be the fact that everywhere we go, there would be passionate fans welcoming us.

- Why was the song ≪MAMA≫ chosen as your hit song?

All: Because this song has a story within it, narrating EXO’s birth and how the 12 of us have split up and are active in different places. Be it the song’s genre or in the aspect of lyrics, it all suits EXO very well.

- How do you feel about debuting in China?

Lay: Because I’m Chinese, I feel exceptionally happy to have debuted in China.

Chen: To be able to debut in the varse lands of China, I’m relaly happy and at the same time, we can spread our music to many people.

Luhan: I am really happy to have debuted in China.

[XOXO] Explanation of some unrevealed secrets!

- What interesting matters happen on usual days?

All: Lay likes to cook for everyone else, there was an instance when Lay cooked and told Xiumin to eat, after which he asked if it was delicious and Xiumin ate a mouthful and said yes, Lay let him take another bite and Xiumin agreed it was delicious again, Lay then gave him somemore and Xiumin said he was full and wouldn’t eat anymore, Lay felt that since it was something yummy, there was no reason for him to eat that little, so he tried it himself and realised it was really salty ……………………..
