The 2013 Korean Entertainment Industry through the Eyes of a Korean Group

Q: What was the most unforgettable part of this year?

Kris: The most unforgettable event was when we received the ‘Album of the Year’ award at the MAMA award ceremony in Hong Kong.

Q: Aside from your own music, who else’s music did you listen to?
Chen: Justin Timberlake
Lu Han: Peter Gene Hernandez (T/N: Bruno Mars)

Q: Who are your good friends in the industry?

Lu Han: Super junior-seniors. They hold activities everywhere, so we see them at TV stations and radio stations a lot. Plus, they’re always giving us guidance, so they are seniors that I respect greatly, as well as friends!

Q: In the car, which album is listened to the most?
D.O.: SHINee’s album. In 2013, they did their public activities really actively. I think that every single song in every single one of their albums is really nice to listen to. So when I have the time, I listen to SHINee’s songs a lot.

Q: Other than EXO, whose performance has been the most attention catching?
Lu Han: Henry! This year, he came out with a solo album for the first time. In both variety programmes and music programmes, he has caught people’s attention through his activities. He can even compose songs and write lyrics, play the piano and the violin. He really is a multi-talented artiste!

Q: What variety programmes do you watch in your free time?
Lu Han: Radio Star! I really like watching Radio Star, especially Kyuhyun hyung who has foresight to become the new poison-tongued MC! So it’s very interesting~ I really look up to him!
Kris: SHOWTIME! EXO’s SHOWTIME, I find it very meaningful! The members are all trying their best to show their own charms! So we always film it happily.

Q: Among the people you have seen on TV screens and movie screens this year, who would you like to collaborate with?
D.O.: I have taken my first step as an actor. The actors that I respect are Kim Yoon Seok and Song Kang Ho. My wish to work with them could only just be a dream, but if it could possibly come true, then I would like to work with them!

Q: If you were given the opportunity, which role would you like to have acted?
Kris: No matter what it is, I will work hard to do it!

Q: What in the entertainment industry has left the deepest impression on you?
Baekhyun: EXO’s activities this year have created a feeling of novelty for me. To me, everything that EXO has achieved this year through their public activities really is awesome, news that has left the deepest impression.

Q: What is 2013 to you? (In one word or one phrase)
Sehun: Miracle (Because there have always been many miracle-like things)
Chen: Love (We can fully feel the fans’ love towards us)

EXO’s Xiu Min Says His Current Popularity is Due to Other EXO Members

EXO’s Xiu Min talked about the success of EXO throughout this year.

EXO recently had an interview with Newsen in a waiting room for a music program after performing Christmas Day.

When asked about how he feels about taking the ‘center’ spot frequently while performing Christmas Day, Xiumin answered, “I’m really happy. There’s so many of us that it’s hard for each of us to be in the center, but this time I got the opportunity to do so.”

As a member of EXO-M, Xiu Min began his career by performing in China, but came to Korea when the group released its first official album XOXO.

“I’m still not totally used to my popularity yet,” said Xiu Min. “I don’t think I deserve to stand in that spot.”

When the reporter commented on his humbleness, he responded, “I’m not being humble, I just accept myself for who I am. I tend to look at the reality.”

“I think I came to this spot thanks to the other members,” continued the EXO member. “If I was alone, I don’t think the current popularity would have been possible.”
