I'm sort of happy people are preferring the chinese ver. of what is love to the korean since I think exo-M will face more challenges appealing to the Chinese music industry.  exo-K has more advantage by going on shows etc.  Also , not many have complained about an accent problem with the chinese vers. (or just don't care) so that's good.

[Guest letterstojuliette]

I'm lovingggggg certain parts of "What is Love" right now, a bit disappointed its only a duet between two members, I was so looking forward to seeing everyone's skills (especially kai t_t) but I know it'll be coming soon <3 thanks guys for all the shares ~

kai sshi is so handsome. all of his selcas = <3.

+ cris's eyebrows are no joke mang ._.

Agree! wanna see all of member sing and dancing^^

and honestly I can't really catch the meaning from What it Love mv lol maybe I need watch the mv again

[jisol]

^ fans already transcribed the lyrics + i dont think the song has very much to do with the scenes in the music video actually

What is Love (english translation)

Girl, I can’t explain what I feel. Oh baby, baby, baby, baby… yeah, yeah.

A long day feels like as if it was only a second. Everyday seems like a story that was written for you. This scene is a romantic love story, the next scene is an action movie main male character I act as the only hero in your heart.

(You’re so perfect) I suddenly anticipate walking towards the future with you. Don’t hide love, hold onto happiness, as long as you can be honest.

* I lost my mind when you walk into my sight. The whole world around you get in slow motion. Please tell me if this is love. Love is everywhere, it lets me forget hurt, help take away sadness, learn to care fought before, cried before, still can hug/embrace Please tell me if this is love.

When I hold your hand, the whole world envies. When you kiss me, I realize that this feeling will never change. They say forever, maybe not anymore. However you trusted that I would love you no matter what, you will slowly understand.

I don’t know why, nothing can replace this feeling. Love is unexpected, you let me become the best man. As long as I’m by your side, life becomes glorious.

Repeat *

Tonight, I thought of when you opened the curtains and made a wish to the stars. Like a fairytale happy ending, happily ever after. From now on, do things for you, feel distressed for you, wait for you, I will never leave. I just want to give you my whole life’s love.

Repeat *

When you hold my hand, the whole world envies. When you kiss me, I finally realize this feeling will never change. My babe, baby babe, baby baby. I can’t not think of you, whether this is love.

I just want to let you laugh like an innocent child. I just want to give you friend like comfort. My babe, baby babe, baby baby. Please tell me what is love.

I didn't expect to like EXO much, or care for them, but after What is Love was released...I don't know anymore. Haha. I really like the song! Both versions, though I think I might like the chinese version better. I wonder if EXO-M is going to collab with ZLY when they go to China? I hope so. I like their vocals, though I'm sad not all of them sang :\ I want to hear all of them! And I want to see more dancing. Will they be releasing a dance song for their official debut song?

I think Kai is super cute. But he's a year younger than me Not in korean years, but still.

ohoh O-O are you a 93er? cause apparently since Kai is born before lunar new year's in 94, he's considered the same age as people born in 1993 anyway this is kind of random LOL but I just wanted to mention it cause it made me feel so much better about being a fan LOLOL

[weirdnshort]

Rumour has it that he's a Korean. Chen is his stage name, his real name is Kim Jong Dae. That's why he has an accent, which is a sad thing because it distracts people from being impressed with his voice and singing skill

The same thing applies for Xiu Min. Xiu Min is also a Korean, his real name is Min Seok/Min Seob I don't know which one is right

It says that EXO-M has two Korean members, which are Xiu Min and Chen

So the members are like this:

EXO-K: Kai, Se Hun, D.O., Baek Hyun, Joon Myeon, Chan Yeol

EXO-M: Lu Han, Chen, Xiu Min, Lay, Chris, Tao

About the voices, I say that I'm impressed with Chen's and Baek Hyun's, because their voices are quite different from others and quite distinguishable. They have certain unique points in their voices. D.O.'s has a quite common voice and so does Lu Han, although they both sing well

Ah thanks. I don't think his accent is as thick as some of the other Koreans that I've heard, but it is there. Or maybe I've been listening to too many Suju M songs and am getting used to it.

Chen's voice reminds me of Jonghyun's (Shinee). I really like how his voice contrasts Lu Han's - maybe that's why they put him in there.

I'm sort of happy people are preferring the chinese ver. of what is love to the korean since I think exo-M will face more challenges appealing to the Chinese music industry.  exo-K has more advantage by going on shows etc.  Also , not many have complained about an accent problem with the chinese vers. (or just don't care) so that's good.

But...I think they'd be promoting in Chinese countries so that shouldn't be a big issue. Suju M promotes quite a bit in Taiwan.

Predebut  'Chris'

found this at the EXO thread on 6theory. 

[Guest betinka]

i wasnt interested in this debut but yesterday i accidentally clicked on 'what is love' on youtube and i have to say that i really like the song, especially chinese version, it sounds way better that koran

lu han & chen looks charming btw 

[Guest Dumpling9]

Cris/Kris looks mixed, is he?

[riribl]

^

He's a Chinese grew up in Canada I heard

But I don't know if he's mixed or not

That pic of Lu Han with Jae Hyo, Jae Hyo looks a lot older than him although they're in the same age o_O Lu Han looks like a little kid. Like, really. Jae Hyo looks like his big brother lolol

Geez I suppose Lu Han's descendants and himself will look younger when they're actually a lot older

[Guest kireisnowtenshi]

I wanted to see bios on all the members

I happen to stumble upon their vid earlier today and I was in love!!! With both versions at that!! This is the first time in years that SM has impressed me with a debut group. I hope they do well!!!!

[Guest justar]

I really like What Is Love... (even though YYJ sounds like he is recycling songs...) and I think it's pretty obvious that this group is brimming with talent. I can't wait to see what's in store for their official debut. 

[Guest Lilmisschique]

Can't wait for this group to debut!

I've tried but SM drew it out too long and now I'm impatiennt. LOL.

I was so happy when I found out Kris was from Canada

And is it me or does Tao look like Zhou Mi?

[Guest duckbutt']

ohoh O-O are you a 93er? cause apparently since Kai is born before lunar new year's in 94, he's considered the same age as people born in 1993 anyway this is kind of random LOL but I just wanted to mention it cause it made me feel so much better about being a fan LOLOL

Lol yeah I am. And I know, but in korean age I would still be a year older. Ahhh. Oh well. It's only a year right? o.o

[Guest Seras]

I haven't followed any kpop groups since a loong time ago but EXO is starting to revive those fangirlish feelings in me again My favs are Lu Han, Se Hun, and Kris I heard their prologue and I am liking it so far! I really can't wait to hear more awesome songs once they finally debut.

Whoa Kai's good at Mandarin? That is surprising to me for some reason lol. So is he still rumored to be in EXO-M then or did LSM switch him to EXO-K? Hm...maybe that explains why there's 3 guys learning Mandarin in this SM trainee video at 3:00. The quality isn't too clear so I can't tell who those guys are...can anyone recognize them? :)

Predebut Kris putting on/taking off his shoes. :)
