The news of D.O.'s arrival on Instagram quickly spread on Twitter, generating a wave of excitement among fans. Many fans expressed their enthusiasm, considering it the best way to start the week. Some even referred to it as the "miracle of the year." However, some fans jokingly speculated that D.O. might forget about the app's existence once promotional activities are over.
“Watch him forget that the app exists after promos are over,” a fan said.
D.O. has already amassed over 1 million followers on Instagram, further highlighting his popularity and the enthusiasm of fans to connect with him through social media.
Their recent release ‘Cream Soda’ has also been taking over the Internet. The music video of the title track of the album features the members feasting on food and drink and having a good time. Fans were quick to label it ‘song of the year’ – with the song’s sensual vocals and the group’s attractive visuals and charm, why would it not be? The video has all the elements of a classic Korean bop - we certainly know the album is going to be a hit!
EXO is a K-pop group consisting of nine members: Xiumin, Suho, Lay, Baekhyun, Chen, Chanyeol, D.O., Kai, and Sehun. The group was formed by their agency, SM Entertainment, in 2011, and they made their debut in 2012. "Exist" marks their seventh album and is their first group release in the past two years.
The album features a total of nine tracks, including "Cream Soda," "Regret It," "Hear Me Out," "Private Party," "Cinderella," "No Makeup," "Love Fool," "Another Day," and "Let Me In." Recently, members Baekhyun, Xiumin, and Chen found themselves embroiled in a legal battle with SM Entertainment regarding their contracts and related issues. While all the members will be participating in the album's promotion, Kai will not be involved as he is currently fulfilling his military service duties.
