This is something that I'm rather interested in. Insomuch that I'm wondering if people here who follow EXO more closely than I do (I watch the videos, but I don't really watch music show performances, interviews, etc..) were able to notice a shift in Kris's general attitude in the time leading up to the filing of the lawsuit. Like, were there hints, etc?
I'm just curious as to if he was able to keep his apparent deep unhappiness from spilling out into his stage persona.
Honestly they didn't do a ton of interviews (that I've seen) in the past few weeks so I'm not sure. I've always thought that kris seemed a little on the outside of things but I thought that was just me. Like that connection wasn't there.
That makes sense that they didn't do a bunch of interviews because of the obvious reasons (Ferry, etc). I still think he would have filed before IF it wasn't for the Ferry thing. I don't have ANY evidence to support my theory, but it's just a hunch.
I am starting to see some of his moments on Showtime in a different light. I was annoyed when he had headphones on during recording, but now maybe it was a coping mechanism of sorts idk. I don't want to over-analyse things. But I am curious on your take.
I don't really have one, since, like I said, I don't really watch performances. But because of what happened I was curious if there were signs of his discontent.
There were a few small instances, but nothing that really poked out to me. Then again, I'm not the type of person that picks up on things as good as others can. Here are a few things that I've seen reblogged on Tumblr a bit now that this news has come to light: http://zitao.tea.jp/post/73616133243/the-satisfied-look-on-kriss-face http://rapid-k.tumblr.com/post/85905326030 http://bakingsodaz.tumblr.com/post/67444668129 As far as shows, I have seen Showtime repeatedly and there are a few instances where he would listen to music during an event that was social and there were either 1-2 times or a bunch of times (depending on how you look at it) where he would be in his own little world. Those are the only thing I noticed and it could honestly mean nothing and just his personality. So I guess to answer your question overall, I don't think it spilled much? Sorry I'm not such a great help >///< I hope someone who can read into things better answer you :)
I hope it helped you in some way. I'm sure there were more instances that might look like he was hiding something or feeling unhappy but I have not seen them and there are sooo many sources lol :) Have a good day friend ♥
Yep. Yixing is also one of the members who are sometimes in their own little world and not as social as the others are. So reading into it will be difficult.
I'm not a kris stan, but any attitude that wasn't like the other members of exo happened far before the past few months. what strikes me is he was always kind to fans both in and out of schedules (ie at big exo events like concerts, and smaller scarier stuff like airports). that didn't change either the past few months.
I noticed during the "Overdose" promotions, that his dancing has gotten lazier and lazier each time, to the point where he just didn't give a fuck anymore. I noticed this even before the lawsuit. I know Kris was one of the worst dancers in EXO, but at least he tried more in the past.
exo is so scripted, trained and robotic that there probably weren't hints in things like tv shows or interviews. if there were hints it would probably they'd probably be seen by fans/sasangs during their downtime.
For me he always gave of the vibe of "not really wanting to be there" But one thing that I actually noticed was just today while watching XOXO ep 2 : around 16:20 they are doing this "exo sarang.." thing and he ist not saying it and seems to turn away I think? And yeah like people said, he wasn't in a good mood in the few interviews they had and he kind of shys away from the camera in XOXO. But it's easy to say that now. I don't really know.
xoxo ep2, where he doesn't say the exo saranghajae when they're all gathered and looks away.. when they interview him after he comes back from the stage, and he won't even look into the camera :/ but idk if i was looking too much into it, he just looked tired/defeated at one point to me
Welp, watching this was masochistic. But obviously I had too watch bc cute boys + puppies.
OT: Speaking of puppies, it's a holiday weekend and people have been setting off fireworks all day and it stresses out my dogs. I'm going to have to spend my weekend coddling them so they don't get sick.
You might only be able to get the biocalm at vet clinics. we sell out every holiday weekend like this one lol. But anything with L-theanine and other calming ingredients is good. Good luck :)
