EXO 'MAMA' EP REVIEW | NSD REACTION

they usually have "angel" at the end of the song. knowing the story of exo and what happened to them would hit you differently.

Great review... though I'm sad that I didn't get to see you react to EXO-K version of What is Love... D.O. and Baekhyun sang the heck out of that song. Yes, the songs are the same but (IMO) sounds differently because they are sung by different singers. That's why I think it's important for reactors to review both versions... well, at least (for me that is) up until the 3 Chinese members left and EXO became 9.

Omg I finally became a patreon. Yayyyy!! BTW guys this is EXO's debut album. What is Love & History were released predebut but this is their debut album. However they blew up with their XOXO album.

EXOK's What is love is another taste^^

Exo from Exoplanet 1 – The Lost Planet. Exo Planet 2 – The Exo'luxion. Exo Planet 3 – The Exo'rdium. Exo Planet 4 – The Elyxion. Exo Planet 5 – Exploration.

But you also need to react to other live performances, in order of appearance:

You need to react to their concerts. Noone does live as EXO. In my mind the best concert was EXORDIUM: https://youtu.be/nmtB5XuVkVk

Are you guys going to react to the live version of the songs? The concert versions?

You guys should totally react to EXO Showtime it came out in 2013 and has 12 episodes or if you want something more recent I would say EXO Arcade which came out last year w 5 episodes I believe. Although, their two episodes w Knowing Brothers is also a recommended choice.

Love the reaction! I hope one day you guys will listen to the Exo-K version of What is Love~ I'm biased because it's my favorite song though... Either way thank you for blessing your ears with these sweet tunes!

Exodus is the last album that will have them separated as K and M on recordings. The next will albums will have the same/similar line distributions with only the language as their difference. You can freely react to either just the Kor or alternate it by then, like you did here ☺️

Personally prefer What is Love Kor version more. The dynamic between D.O. and Baekhyun was just on another level, hopefully you can react to that on the sideline some time.. Don’t mind alternating the songs between korean and Chinese versions like this. I think it’s a great idea, but there are songs that are better in KOR ver or vice versa so you might be missing out a bit ☺️

I don't know why I like the EXO-K version of What is Love better (though I like the lyrics to the Mandarin one more). Maybe it's that BH and D.O.'s voices suit R&B better, while Chen and Luhan suit pop more in my opinion.

MAMA is actually their debut. They debuted with an EP album. XOXO is just their first full album. Only What Is Love and History are pre-debut songs.

Isabela

omg I go to Rutgers too!

Can't blame us always recommending live performances hehe. I even liked their concert dvd more than the original. That's how you can tell that they're really great singers. Please react to Chen's solo album April and a Flower. It's so heartbreaking even though you're not heartbroken. Thanks.

If you want to react to EXO variety show- watch knowing brother. EXO went on knowing brothers on 2017,2018 and 2019

I prefer EXO k version most of the time. Not to mention, EXO has stopped making chinese version of their song other than their title track

Xiumin was baby but tbh hes still baby but with a better haircut 😔

Dave

Lay named his cat "Cat" too lmao yall twinning with these name choices

Dave

They also did an OST for Baekhyun's drama Moon Lovers but it's listed individually rather than CBX.

Gigi Lai

Before they debuted they did an SM Station together with a music video called We Young.

Gigi Lai

They also have tons of solo releases either for solo albums or for OST for kdramas or for SM Station. Let me know if you want that list as well and I can write it out for you guys.

EXO-SC (Sehun, Chanyeol) debuted in the summer of 2019 with their first album What a Life with a music video for What a Life, Just Us 2, and Closer to You. They also have a vlog from when they went to L.A. to film the What a Life music video. There are rumors floating that they may release another summer album this year.

Gigi Lai

EXO-CBX (Chen, Baekhyun, Xiumin) had their debut with Hey Mama! which has a music video with the same name. They also released a cute special clip from EXO planet #3 for the song The One which is very cute and funny and you guys should check it out. They released the Girls album which has a music video for Ka-CHING!. The second mini album is called Blooming Days and has a music video for Blooming Days as well. Then they released Magic which has a music video for Horololo. They released a single called Paper Cuts in 2019. They also have Magical Circus (special edition) which is live in Japan.

Gigi Lai

I LOVE EXO K & M....please react to both versions. Their voices are different and will give different feels

What is love and History were predebut songs. Here is the What is Love Version everyone is asking you to react to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6fPzVNIEB0 Then they came out with Mama as their debut song and album. Then they released the XOXO as a repackage album which you already reacted to. Then they released Miracles in December as their winter album. Next was the 2nd mini album Overdose and along with the Overdose music video. Then they released Exology Chapter 1: The Lost Planet which is a live album. After that they released Exodus which has the Call Me Baby music video, but I also recommend that you check out El Dorado live because it's so good. Next, the released another package called Love Me Right which has a music video with the same title. After that they released a music video for their song Lightsaber. Then they released Sing For You which is another winter album and they did live stages for Sing For You and Unfair which you should also check out. Next was Ex'act which had music videos for Lucky One and Monster. After that they released the Lotto music video with their 3rd repackaged album. They also released a music video called Dancing King with Yoo Jae Suk (he is on the Netflix show Busted with Sehun if you guys ever get a chance to react to it). They released For Life winter album along with the music video (D.O. does an English performance of the song live which you should check out too). Then they released the War with the Ko Ko Bop music video. Then the repacked The Power of Music with the Power music video. Also Exoplanet #3- The EXO'rdium dot live album was released. After that Universe was released as their winter album which has the music video called Universe. They released a Japanese album called Countdown with 2 short music videos for Electric Kiss and Coming Over. After that was Tempo and the Tempo repackage Love Shot. Then they released EXO planet #4- the ElyXiOn dot live album. They also released a Japanese single called Bird and then the Obsession album.

What is Love korean version sing by D.O and Baekhyun..i guaranteed that sound soulfull and great..maybe u can check showcase live

Nia Viancee

lol I can't get over how baby they all were ^^ to put it into perspective, Xiumin had just turned 22 and Sehun was still 17 (almost 18). Now Xiu just turned 30 a few days ago and Sehun is turning 26 in a few days......it's really (almost) been 8 years, that's crazy to me for some reason

Liliana Jimenez

"HE NAMED HIS CAT 'CAT'" OMG!!! Lay did the same!!!! His cat's name is 'mao' which is cat in Chinese!!~ You should see that Buzzfeed interview!!! He looked so surprised when he realized it!!

Klyonne Dela Cruz

Omayma

I wished you guys would react to what is love the korean version because it is sung by D.O and Baekhyun but it's alright maybe you could react to it live later on?😋

Reem OA

Guy's you miss D.O.s legendary RnB in What is Love. No one does RnB in EXO than D,O, Anyways, Chen is amazing as well...
