On May 25th, the boys of EXO held a press conference, answering many questions that fans have been wondering about and addressing queries about the future of the group.
The members revealed that renowned choreographer Tony Testa arranged the dances for their solo concert, and confirmed that EXO from EXO Planet-#1 The Lost Planet will be continuing to tour throughout Asia as planned. The members were very nervous and excited for the show, as it was something that had all been looking forward to for quite some time.
In regards to the show, member Suho stated, “First of all, the members have waited a long time for this. The fans have also waited so long for our first solo concert, and we have prepared our best to make the wait worth it. I’m very nervous and excited, and because it’s the last day, I’m also very happy. It’s such an honor to stand on the stage that our seniors have stood on.” EXO-M member Xiumin also expressed his feelings, stating, “I am so happy that we are able to fulfill one of EXO’s dreams of doing a concert. We will do our best so please take care of us.”
The hot button topic many were waiting for is of course in regard to Kris’ departure from the group. Each member had his own thoughts on the matter. Member Lay stated that, “We had an interview in China about the situation and we were very upset. There was a lot of disappointment and we were hurt. Due to rumors, EXO fans became divided and I’m upset there was this misunderstanding. I hope there aren’t situations like this in the future and I want EXO to become one.” The majority of opinion was shock at the fact that this all happened so close to the concert. Luhan expressed gratitude to the staff for pulling it together, “First of all, the most touching aspect was that even though there was only a week till the concert, the staff worked very hard to make a perfect performance.”
The other members spoke of how chaotic everything was at first, and how everyone pulled together to make the show great despite the added obstacle. They were amazed at the fan response in support of their concert, and are grateful for the love they’ve been shown.
