EXO lives are insanely good and so are their choreos. It is always mind blowing for me to see them dance their hearts out during live performances and still serve stable first class vocals. They have many chores that are amazing but one that is considered also as one of the most difficult and intricate in k-pop in general is their choreo for Electric Kiss, so I would suggest you to watch it. Also don’t ignore their sub-unit and solo choreos. A few fire ones that come to mind are “blooming day” from EXO-subunit CBX, “Reason” from Kai, “Bambi” from Baekhyun, “Veil” from Lay. The more you dive into their artistry the more you’ll come to love them.
They are stage beasts. Their live shows are one of a kind. you will love them all bcz of their versatile concepts as their songs.Highly requested list: Mama+monster+wolf performance(many people consider it the greatest live show ever) Exo mama performance for transformer+monster is a must.

In order to understand what is happening in "Lotto" you have to connect the storyline with what was happening in EXO's previous "Monster" MV. Fan theories believe that "Lotto" is the prequel to "Monster." "Monster" is from EXO's EX'Act album and "Lotto" is from their EX'Act repackaged album, which came out in 2016. How I interpret things is that the story starts in "Lotto" as EXO goes undercover and works to take down the gambling ring, which is thought to probably be run by the Red Force, and now that we know about EXO's clones from their "Obsession" storyline, maybe even X-EXO are involved. Fun fact: Kai -- EXO's main dancer -- isn't dancing in the "Lotto" MV. As you saw, Lay, EXO's Chinese member -- EXO-M's main dancer -- and Sehun -- EXO-K's other main dancer -- are the dancers highlighted in "Lotto." Kai was injured during this time and couldn't dance, which is why you see him sitting down in the MV. In live performances at this time, Kai is absent when Lay is part of the performance because he is still recovering. However, when Kai is back performing the song, Lay was absent because he was busy doing solo activities in China. In live TV network performances of "Lotto" you might also notice that they change the title of the song to "Louder" and the lyrics are changed to use the word louder instead of lotto as well. Gambling is illegal in Korea and it's one of those things that are banned from being talked about in mainstream media. So, in order to make the song TV- and radio-friendly they often have to change everything to "Louder." I think the two stories in both "Lotto" and "Monster" actually overlap. I think both MVs take place in the same location and around the same time frame, and in each MV we see the members in different moments as they try to destroy everything to do with this gambling ring. For example, we see them breaking everything in both MVs -- they smash the car in "Lotto," and in "Monster" we see the car has now been set on fire, and they burn the money and other things in "Lotto" as well, etc. At the end of "Lotto" we see the police or FBI have come in and are just starting to take the members into custody, but in "Monster" it shows all the members have now been arrested. So, I see it as the fight starts in "Lotto" and continues in "Monster." At the end of "Monster," all the members are now in custody and Baekhyun rescues them as he releases them from the back of the police van allowing them to escape, etc. The birds you see in the cage are roosters -- cock fighting roosters to be exact -- and they are another form of gambling. And the dogs are probably guard dogs like what criminal enterprises use as part of their security to deter someone from causing trouble or wanting to rob them, etc. The dogs are thought to be part of the Red Forces' security efforts. Don't worry, SM and EXO don't like animal cruelty either, that's the whole point they are trying to make. It's just another form of evil that comes with gambling. Also, as you just saw in EXO's "Obsession" MV, EXO are the members in all-black and X-EXO are the members in the colorful outfits with the crazy makeup and hair. So, if you notice, in "Monster" the members are all in black for part of the MV (In "Monster" we also see EXO in black and red outfits, which we have now started to think is supposed to be X-EXO in those scenes because of the red on their outfits), and in "Lotto" they are pretty much in black or dark neutral colors, so that is why I think the story is being depicted from EXO's point of view. You also may notice that in "Monster," and in parts of "Lotto," Chanyeol has red hair. But at the end of "Lotto" when he is being arrested, he has blond hair. I think this also might mean that the Chanyeol with red hair is his X-EXO clone, while the blond Chanyeol is the good EXO member who is undercover, trying to accomplish his tasks here on Earth and help the girl, etc. Therefore, in "Lotto" and "Monster" I think what we are watching are the EXO members trying to take down X-EXO and the Red Force and stop the evil and corruption that the Red Force is inflicting on the world, which is depicted here as corruption through illegal gambling. We are not really sure what the girl takes from Chanyeol at the end of "Lotto", but it definitely wasn't money. If you pay attention to the lyrics, one of the English lines is, "I don't need no money." That is why they burn the huge stack of cash. Most theories agree that the currency that EXO values the most is flowers. There is an overwhelming use of flowers in many of their MVs, and as we see in their "Love Shot" MV for example, they aren't collecting money but flowers. And in EXO-CBX's "Hey Mama" and "Blooming Day" MVs and in EXO's "Love Me Right" MV, etc. we see them with flowers. My theory is that the girl is somehow connected to EXO's quest to find and protect the Tree of Life and that is why at the end of "Lotto" you see her secretly take something out of Chanyeol's hand -- which if you pause the MV and zoom in, you will see looks like a small video tape -- to somehow help them in their quest. The video tape is thought to be the video that D.O. is filming with the camcorder in the middle of "Lotto." It's still unclear at this point how the girl fits in the storyline, but I think, or at least I hope, that in the future we will discover more about her and what significance she has within the story. Some say the "girl" that EXO is always singing about and you sometimes see in their MVs -- like in "Lotto" -- is a manifestation of the heart of the Tree of Life and that is why the members are always rescuing or protecting the girl, etc. EXO's whole mission on Earth is to find and protect the Tree of Life, which is explained in their debut "Mama" MV. That's why all their songs are about being in love with a girl or being controlled by the power of the girl, such as in the lyrics of EXO's "Overdose" for example. Or how they talk about knowing they are bad news for the girl but they want her anyway and they can't help it, but in the end, they know they might destroy her -- as they say in "Monster," etc. etc. When you think of the girl as the heart of the Tree of Life the mystery begins to unfold even more. I have seen this MV dozens of times, and each time I watch it I still see something new and am still working to unravel more clues. Everything that EXO does is connected to their concept and storyline, which has been going on for more than 11 years now, and I literally mean almost everything. However, what makes it even more difficult to understand is that nothing is ever in chronological order and SM Entertainment has never explained any of the story. They leave it up to fans to figure out what is happening and connect the pieces. Although, "Lotto" and "Monster" are the two EXO MVs that have me the most confused. I'm still struggling to really grasp the full story those MVs are trying to tell. I think part of the reason why I find these two MVs so confusing, is the fact that they depart the most from the linear storyline and the story jumps back and forth between the two MVs so much that it's difficult to put the events in order to really make a clear picture.
Oh you definitely need to watch EXO live performance, you'll love their perfect live vocals with intense choreography ❤ Maybe you should watch "Ultimate guide to EXO" to get to know the members a little better
As for their b-side tracks, they are just as amazing as their title tracks ~ I personally love sweet lies , diamond, gravity, fall … But I like all of their other songs just as much so whatever you decide to react I will be happy to watch it ~ and their choreography is perfect for their songs I’m sure you will enjoy watching their live performances ~ amazing live vocals and great dancing ~
You said it right their chorus parts are so amazing with catchy beats and tones that it is hard to forget. Being a south asian and Pakistani this is what i loved about exo the vocals+music+classy choreos. if you want emotional songs do checkout their winter albums. Also exo cbx papercut live(emptional)
Love your enthusiasm! Also so glad you are getting into EXO - these guys are legends for a reason. Yes! definitely some choreo, dance practices & live performances. They have one of the best dancers in the industry in Kai. Many say EXO are even better in their live performances. And maybe a guide to help with names? 👍🏻🙏🏻
I clearly remember you did some EXO mv's way back ..i think two years ago...but you are in a deep dive this time ...glad that you decided to dive in ...
exo live is even better! they even won an award as best concert for one of their tours. check out their live performances from their tour. really enjoy your reactions and energy, you are so fun to watch
There is so much to watch from them. They can do any genre and makes it sound so good.☺️❤️ Oh lalala and electric kiss DP are some of my fav from them.❤
EXO is great at making catchy hits, even the b-sides are gold like that. I can't wait for you to see how they started. The Debut song is MAMA MV and there were also two pre-debut songs History and What is Love? I also love B-side songs Machine, Ooh La la la, Oasis, Gravity, XOXO, Peter Pan and Don't Go. I would check out Electric Kiss Dance Practice too. If you want ot see them dance more, Check out Live performance White Noise/Thunder/Playboy/Artificial Love or lightsaber, or Wolf. If you want to learn the names and match them with faces, I would suggest you do the Group and individual guides for them. CesarOh youtuber has great ones. Long but worth it.
Du solltest unbedingt vom EXO das 6. Album "Obsession" anhören! Die besten B-Sides in Kpop (und das von einem Multi-Stan) Groove ist Perfektion aber auch Jekyll, Trouble und Ya ya ya sind einfach 🤌🤌
