EℓyXiOn? More like E(ℓit)XiOn — my experience

Hello everyone! It’s that time of the year again— ANA’S ANNUAL EXO PLANET BLOG!!!!!

 

(Sorry I had to repost becos it was taking far too long to load so I had to remove some gifs!! But I provided links at the end of the blog for yall to see the gifs album :>)

EℓyXiOn came to Singapore pretty fast this year in 3rd March and I had loads of fun also despite some setbacks. I kinda wrote a lot of descriptions in this post so that when I take a tripe down memory lane, I'll remember what vividly took place heh ❤ Behold! This loOOooOng super personal post will feature performance-by-performance gifs, a first-hand experience through the eyes of an ultimate exo fangirl which will be described more intricately than the surround viewing by SM yet it’s all a free read! Bonus: constant shrieking and cursing by me too since im not over it lol. So if you’re all ready sit back, load the thread of emdia and let’s enjoy the ride!

By the way if you want to repost my gifs somewhere, PLEASE credit me. I recorded the videos and cropped it individually all by myself so I’ll greatly appreciate it :”)



D-Day! #excited #nervous


Before entering the concert venue!!! IT WAS SUPER HOT OUTSIDE THE QUEUE WTF MY MAKEUP MELTED


THIS WAS HOW CLOSE I WAS TO THE STAGE. I CANT EMPHASISE ENOUGH BUT I WAS ONLY AN ARM’S LENGTH APART WTF?? I was second row but then when the lights dimmed i got PUSHED to the FIRST row LMAO TF miracles do ing happen. And I just want to say I still cant believe my luck because for the past two years I was standing at the LAST row of the moshpit HAHA but tbh if you’re claustrophobic don’t even try. It was good but I couldn’t wait to get hell out of the venue

ITS ME!!! HAHAHA Touched up my makeup cos I gotta look my best for my men


BOW DOWN ES!!!!!!!! KINGS’ GRAND ENTRANCE


The Eve was Elyxion’s first song on their setlist, and it was modified into some sort of remix with Suho pulling an angelic high note. It was heaven to my ears and I literally went :O MAGICAL

*breathes in* ok but seriously DUDE THE EVE, THAT EXTREMELY Y SONG, BEING HEARD LIVE????? I’m still doubting that I got to hear it om— A pity they modified some of the usual moves though hahaha perhaps it was for censorship purposes…...


Can’t live without the eldest hyung bodyroll


URGHHH IM SO ANGRY, Baekhyun’s vibrating falsetto ‘OOOOOMANHA’ is so good it gives me chills


SEHUN!!! IS!! SO!! DASHING!!! THAT ENTIRE SUIT MAN


That transition from The Eve to Forever Jongdae KILLED IT and it got the auditorium all riled up


SEHUN SHAKING HIS HEAD AND COVERING HIS MOUTH WILL FOREVER BE MY FAVE KINK


SHIMME SHIMME KOKOBOP I THINK I LIKE IT


BREAK IT DOWN NOW i live for Sehun taking center position! Shutup im not emo!


That hairflip is so dangerously hot… oh im getting my heart stolen by cute innocent Kim Kai with bangs #soft


HELLO SOUTH KOREA’S NATIONAL ANTHEM
Singapore actually got the privilege to view the growl remix that EXO had recently performed at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics… I can’t be more touched


I was SHOOK when XiuBaek has a dance battle like wtf?? I wasn’t expecting it since I didn’t really check out elyxion beforehand. It was super cute when Baekhyun and his backup dancers hyped the hell out of Xiumin’s turn to dance urgh my CBX feels yall


There are 3 types of couples here:
The aggressive kind - Baekhyun grabbed kai’s lmfao
The normal kind - Chanyeol and Suho dancing as per original choreo
The  kind - Xiumin and Sehun dancing like kids hand to hand :”((


/gasp/ Sehun looks straight outta kingsman… unreal


Urgh this little flirt doing things to my heart just stop.


I SWEAR I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THE ENGLISH RENDITION OF EXO’S FOR LIFE AND WE GOT A KYUNGSOO SOLO WITH CHANYEOL PLAYING THE PIANO!! DAMN ROMANTIC Btch he screams boyfriend MATERIAL im swoon and he looked so romantic like the scene from his movie I married an anti-fan ahhh his future wife is so lucky to have him serenade her on their wedding day—


URGH i thought Kai was a flirt but Kyungsoo is lowkey MORE of a flirt. For the lyric ‘Oh baby all I wanna do, is spend my every second with you’ at the part for ‘you’ he literally gestured to all of us.. Chivalry ain't dead


Oh god if you think The Eve was y, Sweet Lies IS sensual. Out of nowhere exo started stripping off their blazer coats and teasing us with the swaying of shoulders… i came for a concert but got a striptease tf 


And if that’s not enough, suddenly they started grinding the floor…


THEY STARTED SWAYING THEIR BUTTS LEFT RIGHT GENTLY AND THE CROWD WENT WILD!!! HAHAH TF DID I JUST DESCRIBE I DONT EVEN KNOW ANYMORE??? SORRY I NEED TO PURIFY MYSELF IVE SINNED WITH CASANOVAS


/plural/ Mr steal yo ladies’ coming thruuu STEP BACK

MEMBERS’ INTRODUCTION TIME!!!!!


He so precious turning 360 around to make sure everyone who attended saw him



He looks so— nvm i dont wanna say it


Aw a cute bub


God he looks so BRILLIANT IN BLONDE


/kkaebsong/ ANNYEONGGGGG~


CAN WE JUST TALK ABOUT HIS DUALITY?? He was SO intense on stage seconds ago yet so soft offline


All three look like they’re entangled in some sort of tragic love triangle haha Kai looks like (im not sorry for saying this i’d been suppressing LONG ENOUGH)

Btw they had individual camera screens for each member during Sing For You so you can see all 8 of them sitting and it was like a large projector it was utterly HD

Moving on to other members’ solo~ We have Suho’s first who is 100% bent on killing us all :-)


Someone ask him to chill with that hip !!! He might break his bones lol


So proud of dancer Kim Junmyeon! Everyone was cheering his name and our feelings must’ve reached him.. He was so full of passion. Rise leader Kim!


Ok es its over the hand that Kai was holding out too in the elyxion teaser was Kyungsoo (eventho we all hoped it could be Yixing ehem ot9 LOL) HAHA
Where are all you kaisoo shippers i hope u didnt pass out 


RUN FOREST RUN


THIS IS IT THE EMOTIONAL SONG THAT GOT THE WORLD SCREAMING
PARK CHANYEOL, EXO’S MAIN RAPPER TURNED COMPOSER, THOUGHTFULLY WROTE THE LYRICS WITH ‘I HOLD ON TO 8 HANDS WHEN IM TIRED’ BTCH IM NOT CRYIN ITS U ot9 FOREVA


BTCHHHHH THIS IS HOW I REACT TO UPON SEEING LORDE OH SEHUN HAHAHAHAHAHAHA HE IS THAT POWERFUL


Ahh… what a paradise

HIGHLIGHT: OK FOLKS THIS IS WHERE IT GETS INTERESTING SUPER SUPER UPCLOSE HD FANCAMS OF SOME PRECIOUS MEMBERS!!


HE WAS THROWING SIGNED BALLS TO THE AUDIENCE THIS PRECIOUS BEAR


FCK FKC LET ME TELL U HOW I FELT UPON THIS MOMENT WE WERE SO FKIN CLOSE. When ball of sunshine a.k.a kai walked over to us he literally looked down upon us and we made eye contact and he broke into a loving smile wow i think i fell head over heels instantly and his skin was glowing with the light he was like an angel and did i say he was glowing his bronze skin was so silky and honey i bet he smells good too and everything was so boyfriend i could feel my heart thumping doki doki out of nervousness and my fingers trembled while recording this my CHEEKS FLUSHED I FELT LIKE A WOMAN watching her crush


WELL EXCUSE ME MR-PLAY-HARD-TO-GET
UNLIKE KAI, OH SEHUN BROKE MY HEART BCOS HE JUST DASHED PAST US HAHAA WELL WHATEVER I DONT CARE!!!
P/S: He cut his hair for his webdrama Dokgo Rewind already here if you didn’t notice he has an undercut sfeketketw he looks so fierce


CHANYEOL AH 
HE WAS SUPER POPULAR AROUND MY ZONE
literally everyone wanted a piece of him roflmao 


baekHYUNNN AH


THIS HOE COULDNT DECIDE WHO TO RECORD SO I JUST RECORDED BOTH CHANBAEK LOL U FEEL MY DILEMMA?


HIS CUTE LITTLE SMILE AT THE END


Umin HYUNGGG I FINALLY saw him then lol


Ok this was basically Suho complaining about how Singapore’s camera angle didn’t capture the HD of his hipthrust bcos it was filming from the side and not the top view so he went to reiterate his disappointment then he went on to do it AGAIN lol and all the members were like hm O K


Baekhyun mentioned that the next time he wanted solo it wouldn’t be a song but he hoped it would be a solo CONCERT. Omg. Solo Baekhyun concert? Sign me up. It would be such a great thing. He also encouraged us to plead with SM haha #ChallengeAccepted #teamkkaebsong


Stfu TT


Chest appreciation post…


Singing Heaven with that longing gaze…? Yes officer i would like to arrest this man called Kim JONGDAE


Emphasised this bfore, but EXO’s vcr has some of the most ELITE productions. Look at the premium quality of this??


SEHUN’S SOLO SHUT THE UP HIS VOICE IS SO CUTE THAT LEATHER JACKET IS BOOSTING HIS CHARMS


Rise DANCER CHEN (im still sad he didn’t once come over to my area also)


Horrible!
This. Is. ILLEGAL. 


I LOVE COMING OVER SO MUCH i love all of their japanese songs hw is it so good EVERY SINGLE TIME


YEAP YOU BETTER HOLD ON TIGHT. The whole colour scheme is so perfectly coordinated. I love the concept!


We run this show!! Me: (yES U DO SLAY!!!)


Chanyeol was so energetic!!!!! He was my bae during the concert, always giving his all to please us


I want to complain about that stupid cap. Why is it that Sehun always wears that stupid cap when he’s performing I literally only see a portion of his handsome face. Sehun please!


OH


URGH KYUNGSOO U ADORABLE LITTLE BEAN WHOEVER CALLS HIM SATANSOO GTFO he’s literally always smiling throughout!! And he looks at us with so much adoration in the twinkle of his doe eyes


REMEMBER when I previously said Chanyeol was high, so is this guy lol
He’s another starburst of energy (more than welcomed!!!)


Let ME LIVE HE CAME SO CLOSE EVEN BENDING DOWN TO GET CLOSE TO US MY FACE WAS LITERALLY BURNING FROM EMBARASSMENT AHHAHAHAHAHA HE'S SUPER TALL THAT HE CAN'T EVEN FIT MY ENTIRE CAMERA FRAME AND I HAD TO ZOOM OUT LOL
(i must stay loyal to the maknae brat)


Chanyeol shuffling to Power earnestly is the cutest . He’s like a child in a tall giant body. Im reverting back to my original bias lane!


Lol not gonna say much but the beagle line dancing to Momoland’s Bboom Bboom? Tell me again why its not surprising.
And ofc it wont be complete without Suho trynna join the party lol


Never though I’ll see this gorgeous butterfly choreo from Don’t Go… how my insides flutter


It’s gonna end soon :(


KAI’S TUMMY ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


XIUMIN TALKING ABOUT HIS BIRTHDAY PROJECT AMONGST THE SEA OF CROWD AND BTW HE LOOKS SO STUNNING UPCLOSE THAT SWEAT IS LIKE A HIGHLIGHT 


KAI WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW THE ALMOST EVERYONE ACTUALLY HAD A LIGHTSTICK IN HERE AND HE COMPLIMENTED IT WAS REMARKABLE GETWEKT WHAT A NICE GUY
HE ALSO TOUCHED ON THE RECENT OLYMPICS GUEST APPEARANCE AND SAID THT HE NOTICED THE BANNER OF CONGRATULATORY WHEN HE WAS PERFORMING AND WANTED TO SAY HE APPRECIATED IT AND ITS BCOS OF OUR SUPPORT BTCHHH IM EMO he’s so eloquent with his words <33333333


THEN WE SANG XIUMIN A HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG <3333


BAEKKIE PLS


SEE FOLKS THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS when you’re too playful you forget that you can’t sing becos that questionable mask is covering your mouth ahahhaa a pure blunder¯\_(ツ)_/¯


THEYRE SINGING THE FINALE SONG ABOUT THEMSELVES CALLED ANGEL
This song especially tugs on my heartstrings bcos it was played at the last part of their 'They Never Know' MV from exordium dot and the scene was them running joyfully with a smile plastered to their faces, having fun without a care for the world and its just a display of their beautiful guy friendship huhh ㅠㅠ


Chen raised Baekhyun up by the arm so that he could tackle the high note well :-) In this house we FULLY support EXO’s godly vocal line amirite


Ok i know i was ranting about Sehun and stuffs but I just discovered he was actually last to leave the stage after lingering around first. My sweet baby<3


I’ll miss you goofballs


THIS IS REALLY THE LAST GOODBYE :-(
.

--END--



The Sehun cloth banner I bought but never got a chance to show Sehun himself cos he was too busy playing hard to get rofl and my new beautiful vers. 2 lightstick!! POST-CONCERT SYNDROME IS REAL


Don’t hate me for buying Kai’s elyxion postcards it's a legit struggle to catch Sehun’s one meanwhile Kai looked so delish lol


All the freebies I collected at the concert!! Thank you to the fansites<333



My two cents on Elyxion:

!!GOING CRAZY SHOULDVE BEEN IN THE SETLIST DAMMIT!!


Anyway,

It was kinda bittersweet. It was my first getting so upclose and personal with EXO this year as compared to Exoluxion and Exordium and there were goods and bads. I literally wanna PASS OUT with people attacking me left right and my body was arched so uncomfortably that I felt super sick and couldn’t thoroughly enjoy the concert. I don’t enjoy being confined, I like being free to navigate all around the venue to see every member. This year, I couldn’t see much of Suho, Chen, Xiumin and Sehun. It was quite worth it though cos I got to see most of their faces super close and see perfection in HD. Though I am super salty that I barely saw Sehun because he went to the opposite side most of the time. Like wow, my first time getting first row and Sehun doesn’t pass by my area? O k. 

Personally I prefer Exordium and Exoluxion better because they replayed old songs often. Like while they performed Growl, they didnt play Monster and Lucky One at all eventhough it was just released last year?? And while I appreciate solos from the members, that means I barely saw the other members on stage, either they disappear or they just sat back and wait. You know what I mean? I love all members equally and want to see them as much. And the thing also is that this year, EXO had backup dancers and there were a lot going on stage so it was kinda distracting and messy. I preferred when they danced little but as a whole 9/8. It was more meaningful to me. The performances were also mainly held on its main stage and their ment speeches this time were so short so fans at the extended stage areas are a bit of at a loss. They also look visibly tired this time and I don’t blame them because their schedule is so packed, but it pains me as an audience. At the end they also didn’t play around with the fans’ gifts as much as they did for the previous two concerts because it just felt rushing idk. 

Still, it’s not a concert to be missed. Just choose your seats wisely or end up regretting! The lighting and visual effects are amazing beyond this world. The dance choreography is so sleek. Their camaraderie is outstandingly loveable that it spurs you to sing along (even the guards were watching intently lol). The different outfits matched the members to a T. You will see how beautiful they look and it’s not even a far stretch or a joke. I mean, it’s exo. Everyone loves exo. You love exo. I really love exo. 

Hoping for an OT9 reunion soon!
