“One of my biggest goal，be the bridge of the world，connecting East and West，that's my first move.” ❤️

[@jiayuezhan3146]

Love that quote of his 😍😍

[@dibidibidisapointed6508]

I'm literally the female staff in the back laughing at everything he says

[@erinleighvillaverde523]

wow how's he looks?

[@mstraveltheworld7229]

"Single","I like how you'r playing it" haha! Kris seems very relaxed and happy. Good for him, America welcomes you! You DESERVE it! Big thanks to the two hosts who were very nice and gentle with him. BTW, I did sign up with his IG after watching this. :)

[@bingbinglin4305]

I can feel he realllllllly likes Hip Hop. He talks about it like a child. He is soooooooooooo cute.

[@tianjiaoji9905]

I really love this interview, Kris Wu looks so happy and relaxed.

[@darfg2358]

everytime he speaks english just makes me love him even more

[@floriawang4544]

dar fg so do i!

[@axeltech9914]

dar fg he is canadian chinese

[@annasomlo2282]

Still do?

[@AteezheadlinesMAWAZINE]

Congrats to Kris. Getting on radio stations in the U.S. is a big help in becoming known to our music buyers. He has accomplished something that is very hard for a foreign artist, especially Asian. Love the track with Travis. Juice and July was also great! Wish him much success in our tough market.

[@wendyhuang3237]

Very happy Kris! 😄😉Wish he will success in USA for his music career! 💪

[@galaxyxigua6687]

Kris Wu!!!!

[@TheMelody15]

Yup! He sure is and he's gonna be there for 13 years 🤣

[@JiaruiChen_]

@@TheMelody15 good girl melody

[@heyhimuyi]

HIS ENGLISH IS SO GOOD I SWEAR HE'S IMPROVED SO MUCH ❤❤❤❤❤

[@xybig9295]

IF YOU THINK THIS GUY IS HOT WATCH - EXO KOKO BOP - xd he moved to Canada since 10

[@heyhimuyi]

XY Big Ik, but if you look at his past videos from like around 2013, his english wasn't the best and you can tell that he hadn't had much practice in a while. But now? SO GOOD

[@xybig9295]

IF YOU THINK THIS GUY IS HOT WATCH - EXO KOKO BOP - I didn't know that xd but he is so fucking handsome

[@heyhimuyi]

XY Big YES he's godly

[@awsomelyrandom24]

His accent went completely away when he started working with Vin Diesel :( I miss his cute English

[@qwerty6801]

Kris is the first Kpop guy to have a successful transition into the American market. I guess being fluent in english didnt hurt.

[@daniellalessey7727]

qwerty6801 Jackson wang as well now He’s blowing up ❤️

[@fatima-zahra4617]

They're not kpop tho

[@Sapphireemberss]

Fatima-zahra he was an exo member years ago... where you been?

[@Sapphireemberss]

Daniella Lessey I like Jackson and got7 but I’ve honestly never heard of Jackson branching out to the American market. No disrespect though, love that guy so much

[@MohamedMohamed-wi5vu]

@@Sapphireembersshe was* in exo. He is not a Kpop idol anymore.

[@princesitapigi]

I'm sooooooo incredibly proud of him. He was my fave since his 2012 debut and to see him collabing with all these important artists now... Ugh I'm so proud ❤

[@trustidea]

Still?

[@riizeaf]

"I'm a meat lover." "Chicken is not my style." As a Kris fan (for 5 years) I can't help but be reminded of that lmao

[@hhzxlhf183]

What? Pharrell is gonna go to Kris's birthday fanmeeting? I wish I could go... Great interview, good vibes. Just followed both DJ on IG for Kris.

[@theali2974]

hhzxlhf183 No！Pharrell is going to China to perform but it's for not Kris‘s birthday…

[@hhzxlhf183]

Thea Li You are right. I heard November and Shanghai and just went directly to conclusion. My bad. 😂

[@mstraveltheworld7229]

Pharrell is going to sing at the 11/11 party in Shanghai organized by Alibaba Entertainment group to promote on-line shopping like Black Friday in US; he will feature Kris. Kris is going to have his own B-Day concert in Shen Zhen, China on 11/06/2017.

[@straywitch8009]

I started crying when he mentioned Korea and I didnt even notice

[@christinedong6928]

Omg!Kris is so so cute !He is eloquent and humorous as well。😘😘😘😘

[@beibeili5421]

[@namlived]

7:08 IM DYING HIS FACE LITERALLY SAYS "bitch dont ask me about korea" OOF

[@riizeaf]

LMAOO THE TRUTH

[@MiissMadrista7]

I felt uncomfortable for him 😂😭

[@cbuz06]

"For me its probably in Korea" 😂 poor guy is like ugh lets not start. Do miss his EXO days but so happy for all he's doing

[@GroteskAntichrist]

YES I thought the same😂😂 I think it was also funny that the interviewers didn’t mention EXO at all

[@chimcham6762]

GroteskAntichrist They probably don’t know about his EXO days or his team probably stated previously not to mention it.

[@nerdybunny2367]

Why doesn't he sound like a celebrity when he surely is going places....!!! He seems like some very good friend of yours talking about what he's been up to.

[@sandysuma]

Kris Wu is back for his international fans. "Deserve" awesome song. Keep it coming Kris!

[@catcatcat705]

AGREE

[@By_ern144]

kris is someone with so much potential,he is intelligent ... I cried when he left Exo but I can say I'm glad now that things worked out for him and Exo respectively

[@mstraveltheworld7229]

Tafia: I'd agree with you. I think it's better the way it is now. But I can imagine how terrifying it was to have the guts to say no to SM. He just couldn't stay there any more both physically and mentally.

[@Nhinami]

I havent ever met you but i believe in you. You are such a real musician

[@mosiyang8258]

He's really a great guy, like his new songs

[@zdawnxx3042]
