IS THIS WHAT TOOK A YEAR TO PRODUCE?!
EXO are back after a year with their first album XOXO (I see what you did there) and lo and behold! A feisty title track...which I'm very disappointed in.
Exotics, admit it, the song is a bit of a hot mess. From the lyrics to the mish mash of disjointed sound that makes it awkward, it's a song that's meant to woo the ladies into "forbidden love" with a beast but the odd autotuned "Saranghaeyo" is just so annoying, why is it there? That's not sexy at all Exo!
As with most standard SM videos, our darlings are placed in a box, from the teasers we're meant to have a drama version in which the wolves are let out and into the real world (hooray for drama videos!). Another thing is that for this round of promotions there isn't Exo-M or Exo-K, we just have Exo as all twelve perform together. One thing that does happen is that some members are sidelined for example Lay, Sehun, Suho and Xiumin. Kai doesn't get many parts but you still see him flinging his cornrows at the front. Despite this, I kind of like Exo performing as one, it's nice to see the Korean members' attempt of the song in Chinese and vice versa, it's cute.
One thing about this dance version of the music video is the dance itself. Ok, I get that the song is called Wolf and you have the whole "I'm a Wolf awooooo" line but you really do not need to keep emphasising that with the wolf ears move that actually looks like you're doing gwiyomi player... I just find some parts of the dance silly, but I guess the boys really got into playing wolves...just like how they kept on talking about their super powers.
I just can't wait till the full album drops because we get to hear this in full:
Meanwhile, I'll just leave you with my future husband Kris.
OK KRIS SPAM DONE.
