This is not your abuela's Asian funk!

Kai (EXO) - Wait On Me
cw: lens flares, Kai's everything, flashing, blood/injury

Every time I watch this, I pick out more little things that could be call backs to earlier EXO releases/the whole EXOplanet lore situation, which then gets my brain going all sparky. I blame the silver and black tank top this time. If you've watched early EXO MVs, you'll know why. 😉 And if you haven't, search up EXO-K MAMA and just accept the cringe.

Min Jiwoon - If You Were the Rain (feat. Crush)
cw: stalker-y behavior

A little bit of jazzy R&B for a change of pace for this Sunday evening, with a side of (yet another) Sir Not Appearing in This MV. 😉
(there's been a bunch of such knights/dames this season)

As an aside.... we know my health has been crap since this was added to the SotD schedule back when it was first released. In mid-March. And the only reason it wasn't pushed down even further is my switching to actively trying to post 2+ songs a day as much as I can to try to catch up. 😅

( BONUS: Kai - Adult Swim) )

Flashing back this Friday of love to pre-military-era EXO

EXO - Love Shot
cw: lens flares, flashing, drinking, lore implications

( Korean ver MV )

( Mandarin ver MV )

It's basically the same MV, just with Mandarin lip sync slotted in where the Korean version had those performance parts. Which is an unfortunate missed opportunity to do more storytelling. I don't know if someone got lazy or someone just couldn't be bothered to script out a whole second MV. Either way, it makes me sad that they didn't do more.

EXO - Lightsaber
cw: flashing, blood/injury

Not sure giving any of those boys the ability to use a lightsaber would be wise, but especially not Baekhyun or Kai. On the other hand, from a strictly marketing point of view, it made sense to feature them as two of the more popular members.

and yes, there's a Japanese version, too: https://youtu.be/Z3lB2jx_drM (same video, just different language vocals)
