So.. It's been two years huh?
Wow, my feels are all over the place. It took me so long to like EXO, and one of the only reasons that I actually started liking them was because I could understand EXOM, and it was like a hallelujah moment for me. It's really hard for me to properly appreciate music when I don't understand it, which is why although I was a shawol before I met EXO, I was never that dedicated that I decided to research each member fully. But when I listened to History, and I saw Happy Camp - raw version - I realised that they're relatable. When I researched even more I just learnt to love these dorks, and they're also one of the only boy band in the world that my mum and dad would accept fully, only because a certain member shares the same hometown as me. Facepalm. But it was just so wonderful, because my interest in Chinese music was actually deteriorating, but after they came into my life, woah, I got back into it. But actually, EXO gave me really conflicted opinions. Originally I loved Kris, and hated every other single member, for some reason, Chen, Xiumin, and Baekhyun just annoyed me to death, and I just avoided them. Also Kai wasn't particularly popular to me too. The first impression wasn't very good, as Iwas watching EYK before EXO, and when they reviewed 'What is Love?' I just disliked it so much. And I never liked them to that extent during their mama era. SHINee was still amazing to me, and I was quite jealous over how much attention that EXO received. A little bit miffed as well. But, then I started roleplaying, and I just realised how a) they're amazingly handsome b) Chen's, Baekhyun's and Kyungsoo's vocals just kill me.
So, after such a long journey battling with my conflicting feelings, Kris was my first EXO bias, and then so much happened. Wolf and Growl came along, and EXO's Showtime and so much more, I just fell. They've changed me so much, I mean I love them and all, but instead of being all over the place, I have a great fandom that I love to be in, and although there have been incidents within the EXO fandom, it's still a wonderful place to be as long as you hang around the right people.
In conclusion, these food loving dorks, have distracted me from doing numerous amounts of homework and tasks that I'm meant to be doing. But to be honest, I don't mind. The original appeal of EXO has worn off, but now I'm left with this amazing fandom that I've made many friends from and I just am so thankful.
Anticipating their new teaser like crazy.
Come on SM.
I probably missed out so much. But it's just so asdfghjkl;
I can't believe it's been 2 years.
