My Theory About Pathcode (Theory of Acceptance)
I have been an avid fan of SM Entertainment ever since. And I knew all too well that they love secret messages. After netizens cracked the code about Red Velvet’s Happiness videos showing 7 different faces on one frame, and when Yeri was introduced as a member, I was more than impress.
Now, after seeing Pathcode ‪#‎Kai‬ yesterday, the first thing I noticed was how he wondered helpless along the streets of London as if, not sure of where he was going. Also ‘pathcode’ is the word we would hear if Sehun says ‘passcode’ due to his lisp. ‘Pathcode’ are two fused words from ‘path’ which means a ‘way’ and ‘code’ which means a system of words, figures, substituted for words and letters. In our case, the code is just the teaser videos we had watched; we just need to crack it. So ‘pathcode’ means the key to the path. What ‘path’ are they referring to? We will find out. 
Kai was in London and just runs along the horizons. We also see him disappearing near the end of the video. It is his power, teleportation. Also, throughout the video, he is seen in one place, and then on the other, and then on another. 
Pathcode ‪#‎TAO‬ features Tao freezing time, and bringing it back. This is his power. We also see some type of a clock counting from one to ten at the end of the video. 
Pathcode ‪#‎Chanyeol‬ features Chanyeol playing with flames — his power, of course, fire. And through these footages, we see ‘EXODUS’ just before they end. 
Now, I personally had heard EXODUS lived and the song on English itself. The song tells a story about a woman, whom they saw to be beautiful but was deep inside, dangerous. The woman, represents ‘us’ EXO-L’s and EXO do not want us to turn like that just because of what happened with Kris and Luhan. 
And the teasers, well, the members tried hard, and even awoke their powers to stop it from happening. Stop us from turning against them. This explains the 10 we see in these videos as a way of saying, “Dear fans, please accept it. So we can all live happilyyy.” Also explains the maze, wherein they want us to accept. 
Now, what is the path leading us to, you ask? Simple, the happiness for the all of us. 
El Dorado – Looking for the land of gold (happiness)
‘EXO’ means outside, external. ‘DUS’ means 10. ‘EXODUS’ means mass departing. Our arrival to a new era, the EXODUS era, which brings us to our own happiness. Our departing from yesterday with Kris and Luhan.
I don’t hate Kris or Luhan for leaving, but acceptance is needed. They are going on their own way while we, all we need is to accept and become stronger.
