having all 12 at sm town would be amazing. most of the answers were basic, but I didnt expect anything out of the ordinary rehearsed answers considering they are a rookie group and the questions were meh anyways

wonder why tao was laughing when bacon was speaking?

[ryuugazaki.livejournal.com]

What Tao heard:
"Blah blah blah LEETEUK blah blah blah blah"

[violetrosie.livejournal.com]

Their nervousness is really endearing, and you can tell how much they consider themselves a team. Pretty standard Q&A but I think they're all likable guys.

[ryuugazaki.livejournal.com]

Going from Tao's tiny voice to Chanyeol's mega-deep voice is such a bizarre transition, especially considering how they look. And to this day I'm pretty sure I still have not heard an actual word that came out of Se Hun's mouth.

Lu Han's Mandarin is so eloquent...what an impressive kid he is.

[icedevil0289.livejournal.com]

sehun seems to mumble a lot.

I love this chart

[sumo-mo.livejournal.com]

These people, i love them. Also can't stop staring at that Kris photo in the background

[develei.livejournal.com]

I think the main point of this interview wasn't the answers but their beautiful voices.

Luluuuu ;_; I love you and your voice. Speak more child. Speak.

i thought kris was the shy/quiet type but after this i see that he's more of the reserved/serious type. he leads and speaks well !

most, if not all, of the members are growing on me

[honeyfunnybunny.livejournal.com]

I can't stop giggling at the awkward mic passing, and the fact that they are all giggly and nervous themselves is making it all more funny. It's like they know they are awkward lol

Wow sehun, he seems really shy here. Tao is really timid, but his gigglyness surprised considering how bad his injury must be, getting assisted out after this q&a session. Luhan speaks really well, and I like Kris seriousness and on top of speaking well, he ends everything with thank you... Seems like a really nice gesture, totally get why he's leader now.

They are all pretty cute, but I feel kind of bad for Kris having to answer like every question

I also expected Chen and XiuMin to know a lot more Chinese than they appear to speak.

suho is exo-k leader, kris is exo-m leader
suho and kris talk to eachother a lot to keep everyone on the same page
so i guess suho and kris are joint leaders of all of exo

;___; The more I see of Lu Han the more I like him, Yixing's shyness is really endearing (and surprising considering his ~celebrity past), and Baekhyun+Tao are just adorable. Their answers were pretty standard but it was cute watching their little reactions/interactions/facial expressions.

I died at that little bit where Kris said "SM Town concert" so perfectly. It was like hearing Henry or Vanness Wu speaking English phrases perfectly.

[teaandbiscuit.livejournal.com]

apparently he lived in canada before for a few years?

Kind of OT but information from Official SM Document on the members just surfaced:

————————————————————

EXPERTISE:

Kai - dance (ballet, jazz, hiphop, poppin, locking, etc)

Lu Han - soccer, rubik’s cube

Se Hun - dance, acting

Tao - martial arts

Baek Hyun - hapkido, piano

Xiu Min - taekwondo, kendo

Chan Yeol - instruments (guitar, drum, bass, african drum), rap, acting

Kris - language (english, chinese, korean, cantonese), basketball


LOL @ "golf." For some reason my mind immediately envisioned Su Ho playing by himself (Because he couldn't get anyone else to join him) and thoroughly enjoying it with a huge smile nonetheless.

Also "acting" for Se Hun...we might need to actually hear him speak first. JS.

[icedevil0289.livejournal.com]

wow luhan was 2010 and lmao at rubik's cube being up there. and lmao at kris being languages.

oh need to see suho playing golf now.

[invadeddreams.livejournal.com]

Here for the precious fail chinese ;o; so qt ;___;
I already love them all so much ;A;
forever waiting for Tao and Kris to speak Cantonese

[gabucha26.livejournal.com]

so awkward but endearing at the same time XD

Lay why so shy? ♥

[unlickdbearwhlp.livejournal.com]

This was kind of awkward.

[align.livejournal.com]

...Man, the awkward when Xiumin listed JJ Lin and Jay Chou as his favourite artistes from China.

[ryuugazaki.livejournal.com]

EPIC levels of awkward.

[ubomb.livejournal.com]

i cant stop laughing at sehun and tao omg
"exo m zitao–– TAO" and then he didnt pass the mic omg
and sehun's introduction omg if i was chanyeol i would have rolled on the floor laughing ide
god i love them so much already ;~; this huge pile of awkward penguins ♥

[kayotic-01.livejournal.com]

yup.

[xfragments.livejournal.com]

THE BEST PART IS WHEN XIUMIN SAYS JJ LIN IS HIS FAVORITE ARTIST.
JJ Lin is basically like my life and Xiumin has beyond flawless taste.

And I don't know why but every time Kris talks, I cringe.
He just sounds so monotone/emotionless, proper and rehearsed, like he's some old professor lecturing people, lol.

[icedevil0289.livejournal.com]

I like kris, mainly b.c h his hot and his bitch faces are priceless, especially when he's standing next to chanyeol who is always wide eyed and smiling, but IA he def sounds way too rehearsed and serious.

[the-erotomanic.livejournal.com]

i'm still wondering why the cameraman focused on suho and kai when kris was speaking. did he want to know what was on kai's face, too?

sehun seems to understand korean. he seems really smart. tao, also. they seem like overachievers.

[jacky-snoopy.livejournal.com]

Sehun's korean tho.

[my-faux-pas.livejournal.com]

I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS FOR THIS BOYS I CANNOT EVEN COMPREHEND IT ;~~~~~~~~~~~;

They're so perfect! And I'm starting to ship Suho with Kai. lol

[harbour-jane.livejournal.com]

lol yes. i love them together. their relationship is hilarious

[kerynr.livejournal.com]

Tao is so adorable when he smiles. :)
Kai sometimes looks more than lost. :D
Kris and Luhan are really good as spokesmen.

[dotdotdotting.livejournal.com]

While watching this I noticed SM is missing an EXO-J. I wonder why they didn't debut a group in Japan as well...

[satoshihoyeh.livejournal.com]

was thinking the same thing.why didn't they just divide 12 of them and make 3 groups of 4 members each,exo-k/j/m

[cairistiona.livejournal.com]

This Q&A session has helped my SuKai fic greatly. <3

OMG seriously though why are they so cute, Tao's laughing is precious, all their voices... <3

[ghina93.livejournal.com]

Suho and Kai? omg I thought I was the only who sees this 8D

[violetrosie.livejournal.com]

I thought it was cute how Chen stablized himself on Suho's shoulder at like 8:15 and Suho sat still until he was done talking. Their nervousness is adorable but their teamwork is apparently already.
