If I also miss D.O and Xiumin, Xiumin wanted to do Obsession and there is a clip of him and in a fan meeting D.O sings a little piece after saying that he didn't like it, he immediately said that it was a joke that what he didn't like is that he can't be in Obsession... In addition they all put the chain on their faces like the one Baekhyun wears, D.O ended up with two at the same time because Kai and Chanyeol "fought" to put the chain on his face since D.O is not one to wear many costumes or anything
Yeah, it's about them fighting themselves (alter egos, dark counterparts) 2 different persona's. It is also, real EXO (black uniform) vs. Clone EXO (colorful, crazy fits). This concept is sick up until now🔥🔥🔥
What you saw in the "Obsession" MV was that EXO's doppelgangers were actually their alter ego clones and they were using their superpowers, such as Chanyeol with his fire power, Sehun uses his wind power to deflect the arrows, Baekhyun uses his power of light as a saber in the fencing battle, Chen uses his ability to control electricity (because he has the power of thunder and lightning) to manipulate something to do with the TVs that are playing behind him and Suho (the one with red hair) controls water in the room with all the pictures of water, etc. to fight their other selves. At the very end we see the planet on fire because it's supposed to show how the world is coming to an end as EXO (the good guys in all black) and X-EXO (the evil ones in the colorful outfits with crazy hair and makeup) battle for control, etc. (Each of the members are playing 2 different characters.) X-EXO has been created by the evil Red Force and EXO and X-EXO are fighting each other. EXO are trying to prevent X-EXO from taking over and corrupting humanity and X-EXO are trying to stop EXO from finding the Tree of Life and putting the two halves back together and restoring peace, etc. To truly understand EXO, you need to be aware that EXO debuted in 2012. "Mama" is EXO's debut song and MV and it's how EXO was introduced to the world and it explains the group's concept -- and since then, everything SM Entertainment does branches off from that storyline. From day one, EXO's concept is that they are aliens from planet Exo and they came to Earth with superpowers to protect the Tree of Life from the Red Forces. Each of the members has a superpower that is unique to them and almost every MV will have at least one, if not all of them, using their powers. Now you also need to know that In the beginning there was 12 members and they were split up into 2 groups EXO-K and EXO-M. EXO-K sang and performed their songs in Korean and EXO-M sang and performed those same songs in Mandarin Chinese. EXO-K had 6 Korean members and EXO-M had 4 Chinese members and 2 Korean members. So, to really understand their full origin story, if you haven't yet, you have to watch both the K and the M version of "Mama", because the EXO-K version focuses on the K members and their powers and the EXO-M version focuses on the M members and their powers. However, since then, 3 of the 4 Chinese members have left the group -- short answer to focus on their solo work back in China -- but there is still one Chinese member left, Lay. (Any performances or MVs you watch that took place prior to May 2014 you will see all 12 members.) However, now -- because they no longer have enough Chinese members -- they no longer do separate promotions, but they still produce almost all of their MVs and main songs in both Korean and Mandarin, they just now promote as EXO with 9 members. However, in the "Obsession" MV there are only 6 members -- Suho, Baekhyun, Chen, Chanyeol, Kai and Sehun -- because 2 of the members -- D.O. and Xiumin -- are on hiatus during this comeback as they serve in the military; and due to the political issues between the Korean and Chinese government, Lay -- their Chinese member -- was unable to participate in activities with the group. Therefore, each new MV or project from EXO tells another part of the story, and over the years we fans have created a timeline and idea of what we think each part of the story is telling us. However, the introduction of "Obsession's" part of the story really threw all of our theories for a loop, and it has made us question everything we previously have ever thought was happening in EXO's storyline. On the surface level one interpretation of the lyrics could be that it's talking about obsessed fans. But EXO songs never have only one meaning. If you delve in deeper, it's actually talking about society in general and people's greed for material goods, money, fame, etc. All the things that people can become obsessed with that aren't what they truly need. With EXO's storyline it is thought that the Red Force is controlling humanity by preying on our gluttonous greed for all things material, and making us forget about showing each other love, compassion and respect, etc. The MV starts out with the red and blue light because it's supposed to represent how EXO are currently battling with X-EXO and the Red Force for control. In EXO's MVs when you see red light or anything that is red, this represents the Red Force, and when you see blue light or anything that is blue, this is thought to represent EXO. Therefore, when you see red and blue in one scene or purple -- red and blue mixed together make purple -- this is showing how the line between the two sides is being blurred and they are fighting each other, etc. Since "Obsession," some think maybe EXO has been trapped somewhere from the very beginning and it has been X-EXO that we have been following all along. But I think it's still even more complex than that. I think at times we have been watching EXO, and at times we have been watching X-EXO -- with the release of "Obsession" we have only just discovered that the story hasn't necessarily been showing EXO the whole time. With the new information provided to us through "Obsession," it also makes me question how Lay fits within the X-EXO/EXO storyline. Maybe he is one of the members who has been able to break free or avoid the Red Forces' control. In Lay's solo MV for "Sheep," the Allen Walker relift version, we see everything burning outside as if an apocalypse is happening. Maybe "Sheep" is showing us the planet burning from Lay's viewpoint, like we see the world burning at the end of the "Obsession" MV. And we now think it is linked to EXO's new "Let Me In" MV, where we see a meteor on a collision course for Earth and EXO are trying to figure out how to prevent it from destroying the world. Also, I believe that the storyline in "Obsession" is connected to SuperM's debut "Jopping" MV storyline. If you pay attention to what Baekhyun and Kai were wearing in "Obsession," those all-black outfits are very similar to the black outfits that Baekhyun and Kai are wearing in the "Jopping" MV. Kai is even wearing the same backpack parachute in both MVs, which seems to be SM Entertainment's way of making sure we see the connection between those MVs. Therefore, it is thought that, as part of SuperM's storyline, Baekhyun and Kai have gathered the best of the best of SM's groups -- Taemin from SHINee, Taeyong and Mark from NCT, Ten from WayV and Lucas who is a former member of WayV (now a solo artist) -- to help them battle the Red Force, and maybe, eventually, take down X-EXO. Just like the Marvel Avengers come together as individual superheroes with their own storylines to create the Avengers and to fight evil, it is thought that SuperM is coming together to create the ultimate supergroup to help EXO fight the evil and corruption inflicted on humanity by the Red Force. Unfortunately, to make it even more difficult to understand, each part of the story is not necessarily in order, so we as EXO-L (EXO fans) have to analyze every aspect of all of their teasers, MVs, song lyrics, albums, concert VCRs, choreography and even live performances and piece it all together to understand the story behind it all. And not only are EXO's and SuperM's MVs and storylines connected, but pretty much all of SM's groups have storylines and concepts that connect together, which is designed to become part of one giant graphic novel or movie in the SM Culture Universe. To help you pinpoint the powers being used in EXO's MVs and live performances, here is a list of the members and what their special power is. EXO-K 🌊 Suho (Kim JunMyeon) is the leader of the group and he is a lead vocalist -- his power is the ability to control water (Fun fact: Suho in Korean means guardian, as in the guardian of EXO. That's why as the leader of EXO, his stage name is Suho.) 💡Baekhyun is a main vocalist and his superpower is the ability to control light. 🔥Chanyeol is the main rapper and lead vocalist -- his power is the ability to control fire and his spirit animal is the phoenix. 🌏D.O. (Do KyungSoo) is a main vocalist and his power is the ability to control earth (dirt), which gives him super strength/force. ☄Kai (Kim JongIn) is a main dancer, lead vocalist and sub-rapper and his power is teleportation (Kai means opening, as in a door or gateway, so his stage name is meant to symbolize his role in the group.) 🌪Sehun is the youngest member of the group and he is a lead rapper, lead dancer and a vocalist -- his power is the ability to control wind. EXO-M ❄Xiumin (Kim MinSeok) is the oldest member of the group and he is a lead vocalist and lead rapper and his power is the ability to control snow/ice (frost). 🦄 Lay (Zhang Yixing) is the Chinese member of the group, he is a main dancer, lead vocalist and rapper -- his power is the ability to heal anything. 🌩Chen (Kim JongDae) is a main vocalist and his power is the ability to control thunder/lightning/electricity. (As you can see, Xiumin and Chen were given stage names that sounded more Chinese so they would fit in better in EXO-M because they are the Korean members of the Chinese group.) The Chinese members who are no longer part of the group, but are still an important part of EXO's storyline: 🐉Kris was the leader of EXO-M and he was a main rapper and vocalist -- his power was the ability to fly and his spirit animal was a dragon (Kris left the group in April 2014.) 💭Luhan was a main vocalist and his power was telekinesis -- the ability to control things with his mind. (Luhan left the group in October 2014.) ⏲Tao (Z.Tao) was a lead rapper and vocalist and the martial artist of the group, so he did the flips and stunts in the group's routines. His power was the ability to control time. (Tao ended activities with EXO in August 2015.)
If you remember the guide it's explained about their alter egos (X-Exo), the clones created by Red Force as a counterpart against Exo. Exo did their best trying to stop their counterparts but failed as their counterparts being newborn and evil as hell unleashed their powers expensively and ended up destroying the planet (its unclear whether they destroyed Earth or Exo planet). We saw Red Force infiltering X-Exo as spies during Tempo and Love Shot era. Remember some members were glitching in Tempo? It was because of this. Love Shot is where members started to realize the existence of a traitor in the team (Baekhyun point the gun at Xiumin).
i very love their song... from debut, thats MAMA,wolf, and etc. from EXO era SM entertaiment have a perfect concept grup/mv. and now they made aespa with the same effort (for their group concept)
The song and mv are about fighting your inner demons. They were fighting themselves physically throughout the mv. Black costumes are their good side and bad is dressed in color. At the very end you might think good is going to win, as they’re all in black, but at the last moment bad reaches up from inside good and makes good snap their own necks. Bad wins. At least, that how I read it.
The Mv is about exo and x-exo which x-exo is exo’s clones that are working against them for the red force and the remaining 6 are guarding the tree of life that’s why you see the fighting but they lose
They are not clones, they are their alter-egos from a parallel universe. The 'clone' theory is nonsense that went viral. EXO's story is about parallel universes.
@@mosaycomusic There are some distributors of notes theories because in Lucky One you see at the beginning how there are two Kai and two D.O. and they are experimenting with them or trying to copy their powers... And Kokobop there are like two theories: either they are EXO after Luky one with their uncontrolled powers and still under the effects of what they were given in Lucky One, or that they are the EXOx who come to earth and are testing the powers...
@@luzledo Universos paralelos, no hay más que explicar. Lo de los clones es de Star Wars, aquí tenemos el concepto claro desde el inicio. Las teorías solo son interesantes para quien las 'inventa', para el resto son una tontería. Si no se entiende qué son los universos paralelos y lo que implican se está perdido y solo se pueden hacer conjeturas basadas en detalles absurdos.
Thanks for reaction oppa Exo next time reaction Exo concert please 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Exo: unfair, tender love, love me right Exo: growl, lucky one, angel Exo : let me in MV and hear me out MV also😊😊🙏🙏🙏
I really enjoyed the way you want to figure out the concept, reminds me of the day this song's teasers came out 😂😂 the analyses the confusion and the delulu 😂 , those are the alter ego, or EXO clowns created by the red forces , it also can go like The evil aura of man but it's hidden ,
You will apreciate it more when you notice little details. This is all about alter egos, about someone fighting their inner demons, depression that keeps them locked in. Also this video is the best representation of power, control and technology. If you have noticed there are Tv screens(in order to monitor) chess game(indicating mindful game,sharp behaviour, intellectual) the half cut X shaped head has Screen in it whoch shows that human will think and process what they see and listen on screen(social media etc indicating that technology will dominate just like the concept of new world order) also there is bull's eye behind sehun which shows target. Fight and power usage all showing the concept of power,control etc. there is an amazing analysis about this song production too by Aespa's next level producer.
The EXO wearing black clothes in the music video is the real exo and those wearing colourful clothes are the clones x-exo. It has something to do with the Exo Theory.
Exols have unfortunately limited Exo with vocals only. When they are the kings of concepts(even youtube music praised them on twitter) stage beasts and most versatile group in kpop with most unique rap styles. As some of the musicians have also appreciated it so much. Exols should act mature and better not limit them as vocalists.
@@ForlifeNA Not sure why you chose to basically say my comment was immature, but, ok. I honed in on vocals as it's the top reason Exo is my ult group. I'm sure other of my Exo-L fan mates will talk about, and mention, many of the other reasons Exo is such a great, and beloved group... Have a great day.
I've been most excited about this reaction, it's definitely a different side to them. It's Exo against their evil clones, X-Exo. There's a dance practice too
Congratulations! You have been captured by the unique talents of EXO. I would highly recommend you watching "The Ultimate Guide to EXO" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_edWWwBKAn4.html. This is an old video; however, it explains the history and lore of the group. In most of the MVs, there are references to their superpowers, battles with the Red Force, and leaves the viewers with a plethora of interpretations. Once you understand their foundational storyline, you will discover Easter eggs threaded throughout their MVs. They are incredible artists ~ vocal kings, superb dancers, visually stunning, remarkably humble, and outstanding in their group and solo endeavors. Enjoy the journey.
