The line about Ten collecting languages like he collects earrings! Love it.

I like these kind of articles, more feature-ish types? written around idols. Wish we would get more like that.

Ever the optimist, Kai continued. “It was still a good experience. It’s motivated me to work harder until I can ride a helicopter again—maybe from Korea to America.”

The younger boys seemed impressed by his goal, but Taemin was skeptical. “Wouldn’t it take too long?” he asked. Baekhyun had other concerns: “From Korea to America? You’d get shot down with a missile.”

LMAO I know Baekhyun has a reputation for being funny but that still caught me off guard. I literally laughed out loud.

He really said missile with his whole heart 💀😂

this was probably one of the best interviews/articles I've read about them thus far. It painted the members for how they are as well as had some actual substance to it.

baekhyun is a legend and I'm suddenly remembering why he was my bias back when I considered myself an EXO fan.

the little section with ten to the flurry of language translations was my favorite. how cute. i need more of this wholesome content

I saw when this reporter and a few others freaked out on Twitter over the guys sitting right behind them during the MV viewing lol. She wrote a good one here. My favorite parts:

- Unofficial comic relief Baekhyun
- Mark warming up to his role of being the eloquent English speaker
- Lee Soo Man, SuperM’s biggest hype man
- Ten collecting languages like earrings, asking Mark for help on vocab on the side and then instantly using it in the interview
- Lucas "looking massively entertained" by the back and forth Chinese-Korean-English interpreting
- Taeyong again having to explain his not so wholesome rap lyrics

I'm sure the bullying scandal isn't helping

wow I didnt realized how I missed baekhyun a lot! He's super cute.
Also I cant just picture it in my head how Lucas reacts lol, I love funny confident guys. It's impossible to not like this group tbh.
