“Exo just hits different” 💯

[@luckymiss9779]

so true

[@danigarek7234]

This group has the best vocals, the best hight note, and visuals. They have everything. This is true and it's not an exaggeration.

[@cambojoe]

EXO’s winter albums (there are four) were a “gift” to the fans. Miracles in December started the trend in 2013, followed by Sing For You in 2015, For Life in 2016 and Universe in 2017- each title track had its own MV. They’re not really “Christmas” albums (even songs with Christmas in the title aren’t typical) but they are all loved.

[@pcybbh0461]

That's how we are at every EXO concert lmao 😭 we throw things, mostly are toys and at the end of the concert before the encore, they'll gonna pick some toys up and play with them. They sometimes bring them home. We love the fact that they're all having fun with the toys fans are throwing on the stage. Their reaction when they see something they like is PRICELESS 😭 It also became our way of gifting them since as an international fan, it's really difficult for us to send them gifts tho it is possible when we reach out to the company but it will take too looong to process and it's a hassle. So fans usually throw things that we know they like to gain their attention or something fun that we really want them to see like a customized pillow with a member's funny face on it 😆 it's honestly one of the best parts of EXO concerts since it's also the part where they're interacting with fans more. I haven't been to other kpop groups' concerts so idk if this is really a thing but throwing toys on stage is something we, EXO Ls are always expecting and it's part of the preparation we also do before the concert. We have to think carefully what will gain our biases' attentions 😆 I can tell that EXO members are always looking forward to it too! 😊

[@resurgingflame]

It's not just toys, sometimes they even threw things like bras & underwears 🤣🤣

[@munhyunhan6583]

First Snow of EXO became Korea's first fall of snow anthem. It's being played everytime the d snow falls in there... EXO truly release timeless songs.

[@katietotha80]

EXO with those suspenders, they literally said Christmas but make it sexy. Lol The vocals in Miracles in December literally give me goosebumps still after listening to it at least 50 times.

[@xxxibgzcyy587]

They’re not only the KINGS OF KPOP but also the CHRISTMAS KINGS OF KPOP

[@xing_xoxo6205]

Agree 100% EXO hits different. #1 their vocal tone is so distinct, you can instantly identifyfy it's EXO when you play random kpop songs fr different groups. #2 they have that sexy manly vibe. Others may execute the same steps during the dance cover but they don't have the same aura that EXO exudes.

[@musicandsound1746]

they are a full package performers, that’s makes them special

[@nargesmsv9999]

I totally relate to “EXO hits different” there’s something about them which is captivating Each member is a great vocalist and can be a soloist there’s no doubt and as EXO they have different voice colors but when they sing together or harmonize together something magical happens (I couldn’t find a better example 😅) Thx for the reaction 😊

[@syedafarhat7252]

I'm exol, but I listen to all K-pop groups, even with these years, I haven't found a group whose members all have perfect voices except for EXO, it's the truth, all of them without exception even rappers can sing

[@Miraiwhitelock]

Fun fact: First snow was released in 2013 but since then, every time the first snow falls in South-Korea during the wintertimes the songs trends and hits the charts again!

[@lxo2670]

Always spitting relatable facts here : EXO hits different yes and the vocals and live stages are unmatched 💯💯💯

[@milindawilson9175]

"Miracles In December" actually features the 4 main vocalists in EXO. If you haven't yet, you should check out the Mandarin version as well. If you have never heard the Mandarin version, then you are missing out on hearing Luhan's beautiful voice also. :D In the EXO-M version of "Miracles in December" you will see that Luhan sings instead of D.O. Luhan was one of the main vocalist in EXO-M. Chen and Luhan are both EXO-M members so they sang the Mandarin songs, and to round out the vocals Baekhyun subbed in as an EXO-M member. :D You should check out the Chinese version to hear how beautiful it also is in Mandarin. In the Korean version you see D.O., Baekhyun and Chen as the singers because they are EXO's main vocalists and they are all native Korean -- even though Chen is a member of EXO-M. To create the perfect melody SM decided they needed all three of them to create the right blend of their voices and harmonies. In the EXO-M version, they put Luhan in the mix because, as the only native Chinese one of the four of them, it would be pretty weird if they didn't use the main vocalist from the Mandarin sub-unit in that version of the song. Plus, Luhan is the only one of the three that speaks fluent Mandarin. (Similar to EXO's "What Is Love" song and MV.) "Miracles in December" is part of EXO's winter comeback releases, so, as you heard, it's a ballad. EXO's winter albums are always their ballad albums. Up until the last couple of years EXO used to come out with 3 to 4 albums a year -- a summer album that was more of their mainstream hype songs and a repackaged album a few weeks later, and then, in the winter, they would release another album that was more of a holiday album and it was all slower ballad songs. But the last few years EXO's first comeback of the year hasn't been until the end of the year -- for example, Don't Mess Up My Tempo was released in November 2018 and the Obsession album didn't come out until November 2019. So, I guess, because the first album and repackage were released so late in the year, SM decided that releasing a winter holiday album would just be too soon after the other album. So we haven't gotten a new winter album for several years now. Which I think is a shame because EXO's ballads are really beautiful and I enjoy them almost more than their other songs. If you notice, Xiumin was the one that made it snow. Xiumin has the power to control ice/frost/snow, so anytime something has to do with these weather elements they will focus on him. In the MV you see Xiumin in the red sweater and the black vest with the lapel pin that is shaped like EXO's logo. He steps outside and looks up at the sky and at that moment his pin shimmers and it begins to snow. It is thought that the members' powers are tied to their emotions, so when Xiumin is sad or melancholy, he almost can't help it, and he will make it snow. And as you also may have noticed, Tao is the one that turned back time and then instantly brought time back to the present again, because he has the power to control time. The snow was falling in reverse at one point because Tao was rewinding time. Then you see everything pause for a second and the snow starts falling down again when he brings everything back to the present. You also saw during this MV that there was an eclipse. Eclipses affect the members powers and it is also where they gather strength, etc. This even happens in live performances. You will see instances of them using their powers to control things that happen on stage during live concert performances. Suho makes it rain on stage, Xiumin will make it snow, Chanyeol will control fire, Chen will control the thunder and lightning, Baekhyun often makes the lights go on and off, etc. If you keep this all in mind when you watch any of their MVs or live performances, it's kind of fun to search for the instances where they are using their powers. In some MVs and songs the members use their powers more than others, but at least one member will use their powers in almost everything they do, it just might be more subtle sometimes than others. So this is just another element of EXO's performances that make watching them unique. "Miracles in December" is a kind of breakup song that is about how the holidays makes you nostalgic for that loved one that you are no longer with. It makes you remember all the good times and makes you wish you were together even though you know, deep down, you are better off now that you have broken up. All the gifts are supposed to be what they would have given to their girlfriends if they hadn't broken up before the holidays. "She" was a different girl for each of the members, and "she" was not meeting any of them, she was a memory of a past relationship that was no more. That's why Tao turns back time for a moment to relive being in the relationship, but then quickly returns to the present because he knows, deep down, he is better off and that you really can't go back in time and expect to fix everything in the relationship. That's why they are all sad and crying because they are heartbroken. I like to think, for example, that the puppy was probably going to be a present for Kai's girlfriend, but now that they have broken up, it just reminds him of her. it's kind of a bittersweet memory. :D The "miracle" is that the girl had such a profound impact on their life that, even though they aren't together anymore, she will always play a big role in his life history, etc. The "miracle" is that the holidays give you a reason to look back and reflect on those special moments in life, and even though the memories might make them sad because they are no longer able to make new memories together, the old memories are still there. And the "miracle" is that he has now realized she has taught him so much about love and life, but unfortunately, he has realized it too late and he can't go back, so he is sad. He's now upset because he is unable to show her the appreciation she deserves, etc., etc. If you look up the English translation of the lyrics you will discover that knowing what the lyrics are about gives you a different perspective on the song.

[@maggiep9893]

Thank you so much Milinda for sharing the details about the video. I went back to rewatch it after reading your comments and appreciated it even more. Such powerful voices. I still mix up a few members because I just discovered this talented group but they are all special and together they’re powerful! No matter how many times I listen to this song, I get goosebumps every time!

[@myloeyheart5932]

I love this line you said, “You know, EXO just hits different, I don’t know what it is about them, but they just like, I don’t know” and then you just smile :)🤍

[@garttkloa490]

"Miracles in december” I'm really proud of the song in 2013, but EXO is EXO's vocal group. I've never seen a new group whose debut was as amazing as EXO. There is a famous phrase that says, "If everyone was looking for talent and not trend, they would have become EXO fans."

[@lysleilla9825]

I'm not even Christian, but *EXO* made me love their Christmas songs, so merry Christmas to every one from a Muslim *EXO-L* 🎄🎄🎄

[@anne-marierayar8702]

Santa claus is for all who love their family not only for Christian Christmas celebrate love and peace

[@TheHockeywitch]

EXO has several "Winter" albums. Some people call them Christmas albums but they're more accurately winter albums even though some mention Christmas. They're mini-albums and contain mostly beautiful ballads that kind of have a winter feel to them. You should listen to them since it's the holiday season. Most people who don't like "Christmas" songs love EXO's winter albums. A lot of the songs are bittersweet. It's funny because if you read the lyrics, some of the most cheerful sounding songs have the sadder, melancholy lyrics and vice versa. I believe portions of their winter album sales used to be donated to charities. Definitely listen to the non-title tracks on these albums because you'll be pleasantly surprised. EXO does winter/Christmas with an R&B feel. I don't think there are too many k-pop artists who do Christmas R&B, sexy-style. I'm sure they'll be added to your holiday playlist. LOL The song "First Snow" is VERY popular in Korea, even now. Even though the song is over 7 years old, the song trends every year with the first snowfall in Korea. Miracles in December also trends this time of the year. Merry met and Happy Holidays!

[@kyungsoosings2362]

A heartwarming stage indeed. One of my favorites. Because Exo is regarded as a singing group more than anything, that's how they hit different.. Their presence brings it out of you...their charisma and performance ethic is on another level...they love singing, and their songs and ballads make you feel good...they are not about what's trending...they are about singing, in various styles and genres that are about vocals, and I'm here for it.💙🌺

[@sabrinaelias3389]

Exo's christmas songs are the best!

[@bryghian]

Ah, as it is snowing right now here in Seoul, tho not the first snow, if you go outside, strolling down Han river and UN village, you'll hear The First Snow playing on almost every stores and buildings. It's become South Korea's announcement song whenever it's snowing, specially if its 'the first snow'. No matter who you are here, you'll know its lyrics by heart, truly warms the winter...

[@maggiep9893]

RJ I’m sure you got goosebumps with this one! Chen wow wow. We do see the others but in the background. The trio are the ones who hit the high notes. It seems like an emotional song. Anyone who speaks Korean please share some of the lyrics.

[@misakichan4758]

EXO’s winter albums are truly the best thing to ever exist on earth. It saved me. I love their winter albums a lil too much. I even cried watching this reaction. It so nostalgic everytime I listen to it. And also EXO lives are out of this world. There’s something unique, special and beautiful about their lives which I can’t find anywhere else. Their interactions with their fans and their powerful performance just hits different. I love them so much with all my life. I will be forever grateful for EXO. They’re an important part of my life. They play a very important role in my life. They’re my inspiration, strength, happiness and also weakness. EXO Saranghaja I love you❤️❤️❤️

[@tatyanicktheone7387]

I love the moments when they interact with the things brought by fans. Like when Kai opened a bag thrown by fans and it was full of candies, his face at the moment deserves a fandom, happy baby 🧸 😂 Or when they start hitting each other with toys, Chanyeol and DO are the best at this.

[@mochaangel1967]

EXO is the perfect example of what a true talent pool is, every member has their own flavor separately but when all together they are a vocal phenom that no one will never be able to replicate. SM has cornered the market on creating this blend, they are now carrying this forward with NCT, if you pay close attention , they (NCT) have picked up the baton from EXO and will and are doing extremely well in keeping Lee Soo Man's original vision alive. EXO has established themselves as THE standard and I don't see any other group ever fully replacing their legacy.

[@anasondos3762]

Wow yes wow that’s it.

[@munhyunhan6583]

When EXO performed Miracles in December in SBS Gayo back in 2018 it gave the Kpop fans goosebumps as it was sang again on stage after so many years. There were two versions of it the live and the pre recorded one... Tho they don't need to sing it live because the show already played the pre recorded video on screen they still went up on stage and sang it live. Also on the pre recorded one, Chanyeol was d one who played the piano.

i think exo hits different because they look so effortless and comfortable on stage~ they do so much and it is obviously everything they do is at an incredible level if perfection but to the people watching it all looks sooooo effortless and this goes for all the members. There is not one member that this doesn’t apply~~ i think that’s what makes their performances hit different~~ it took me a while to figure this out 🤣🤣🤣🤣
