According to SM Entertainment on October 23, EXO was the only entertainer that was named as ‘2014 Korean Masterpiece Most Loved by Chinese People,’ which was a poll done by Korean Marketing Association along with People.cn, which is the internet version of People’s Daily of Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
The poll was conducted between July 30 through September 30 taking votes from 10,768 Chinese people currently residing in Beijing, Shanghai and Korea and a total of 42 items were selected in three categories (consumer goods, durable goods, service).
