My Honest Review of EXO's 'Wolf'

Hello everyone~ and welcome to my honest review of EXO's 'Wolf'

 

I will warn you, this review contains good and bad things so if you are a sensitive EXOTIC, I suggest you leave NOW

 

Okay, this is how I'm going to review it. It will be split into three categories, the MVs, the live performance, and the song itself.

 

So let's begin~

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

The MVs

 

So to begin, I thought the effects in the MVs were really cool, the wolf transformations were creative.  I hate Kai's hair with a BURNING PASSION. I actually like their outfits in 'Wolf' unlike in 'MAMA'. The whole white room/set I thought was cool. The MVs were so mainstream K-Pop though, just dancing and close-ups. I'm not sure if they're going to release a drama version of the MVs, I've heard rumors that they were but I'm not sure. But yeah, I'm upset cuz it was so mainstream K-Pop.

 

The Live Performance (M!Countdown)

 

For the live performance, I liked it. The dance is really good and unique, but I HATE this one part of the dance, its the one part where they have their arms crossed and they're kicking their leg. I really hate that part of the dance, it just looks plain old weird. The intro dance was cool and I liked how they ended with the Tree of Life pose. I loved Baekhyun's and Sehun's hair, it looks like a rainbow exploded on Sehun's hair but I like it XD Anyway~ I couldn't stop fangirling over Baekhyun and all I could think about was "Oh Luhan you so fierce~"

 

The Song

 

Now onto the song itself. TOO MUCH AUTO TUNE. There is WAY too much auto tune in the song; Suho, Luhan, and Lay DO NOT sound like themselves AT ALL. I honestly thought the song would be better as well considering SM made us wait a whole year and a month for the song. It upsets me. But anyway, it sounds like they say olf instead of wolf. Is it really that hard to say wolf? Don't even start about Asian accents, I am Asian myself and I hear Asian accents 24/7 from my family so fight me. Anyway, from what I could hear, the rappers sound the same but I can't evaluate Sehun since he only has ONE LINE. Poor Sehun, all he does is try, I wish SM would give him more lines. Though I didn't like the song at first I'm slowly starting to like it the more I listen to it, I just hate the chorus though but that seems to be the case with EXO for me. I didn't like 'MAMA' at first but then I started to like it the more I listened to it. Hmm it might just be me but I like the Korean version better than the Chinese version, not that I don't like the Chinese version, I just seem to like the Korean version better.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Well that's all I can think of right now I guess. I think I pretty much got my main points across. If a drama version does get released I'll do a review of that as well ^-^ Hope you enjoyed my honest review of EXO's Wolf and if your feelings are hurt I'm sorry that I am blunt. Have a good day everyone~!

Oke you said: "it sounds like they say olf instead of wolf. Is it really that hard to say wolf?" .. You know that Koreans pronounce a lot of English words different right? It's not their accent. You call that English loan words. For example: Date: they pronounce it as Datuh! .. The same with Wolf - Oelf! ... I'm Asian too. Not all Asians are the same. So you can't compare you and your family with another Asian race. We all have a different language and culture. ~ And the rest, well it's your opinion. I love the song! :)
