Promo Poster for December

Plays. Musicals. They've become my passion. I love doing them and working with all of the talented people. I've learned so much from working with so many great actors and actresses. When I first started, I was really apprehensive. Here I was, some idol, that so many never thought much of. At least, in terms of musical acting. But I learned so much from so many.

Others have suggested I go into traditional acting, like what Jaejoong hyung and Chunnie have done, but I don't know. I just can't see myself doing that kind of acting. So what do you all think? At least the ones of you who are actors. How easy do you find it to switch?

I always come to these posts with hopefully a reflective post on what's been happening this month. A lot of ideas come from what's happened and sometimes it's from nothing at all.

I think this time though it's definitely coming from something a non-idol friend asked me a few days ago. It was a simple question but one that got me thinking! As an idol within the music industry what would be something you like to challenge? Producing, editing, composing, arranging even? Or maybe even acting? Musicals? What's something outside of the box but still want to try?

This also comes from the fact that a few of our members have been in music videos this month! Our very own Chanyeollie stared in a touching music video from K.Will sunbaenim . Try not to cry while watching it! As well as our Minseokkie hyung who was featured in a teaser this week!

It definitely got me thinking if I could do anything, what would it be?

Something along the lines of arranging or composing music, I think. Maybe a little more hands on in the creative process would be fun and interesting. Maybe not now, but some time in the future!

Even though, if you could choose to do something new within the industry, what would you like to try?

Hello everyone! I am EXO's Chen, or funky funky Chen Chen! You can call me Kim Jongdae when we're off the stage, I'd prefer that as I'm not always on one. ㅋㅋ I'm the main vocalist no matter what the others say. Fans have been also calling me Chencing machine because they're so blown away from my dance skills. It was only a matter of time, honestly.

I make up one third of the proclaimed beagle line. It's the important third since I was chosen as the leader. Chanyeol and Baekhyun finally realized how awesome I was and they know they can't surpass it. ㅎㅎ

I'm joking. I don't know why I was chosen as the leader.

Some things about myself: I am a bit of a romantic. I like long walks down the Han River and candlelit dinners while serenading with my smooth voice. I play well with others and I'm trying my hardest to learn Mandarin.

Can you spot the lie or are you not sure if any of these are true? You can always contact me at woshichen or #brick.haus to ask me yourself. However, results may vary. ^^

But I'm not going to end it with that. Have a riddle!

Three men are under an umbrella, and none of them are getting wet. How?

Halloween parties and costumes always make me wonder... if there were no limits, what would I be? Maybe something really cool and witty! Or maybe super realistic zombie? Though that may end up backfiring... ㅠㅠ

Being the sentimental person that I am, scents are a big part of my life, I have to admit. (I'm just reminded of this because of my recent discovery of this wonderful perfume~!)

Though speaking of scents, did you know that it is a powerful memory trigger? At least for me this is true. The smell of pajeon reminds me a lot of my childhood and my mother in the kitchen lovingly preparing it for me and my sister.

Is this true for you guys too? :^) i'd love to hear your memories and the specific scent linked to it.

Also if you haven't seen this yet, it's an interesting movie about scents and perfume, perfect for Halloween too.

If you know me well, you know that I happen to be a big fan of horror... films, novels, fashion, anything. Since it's that time of year, I was wondering how people plan to spend it themselves, and if they happen to have any spooky traditions that they like to follow.

Cute, bad, cheesy... let's hear it.

What do you do when you can't get warm enough under a mound of blankets and with the heater on. There has to be something wrong, right? Or a window open somewhere.....

Wow~

jjdayo — Fri, 18 Oct 2013 00:12:56 GMT

Like...I actually teared up a bit. It sounds really good. They'd done a few other things.

It's really amazing what people can come together and create. This might be my new favorite fan video.

What's yours?

I only now realize how unfair it is that Minho hyung gets to wear so little makeup.

EXO's multi-language, multi-name bearer, but singularly handsome leader currently known as Kris. Artist, singer, rapper, dancer, you-name-it-I-can-do-it-or-steal-your-title kind of guy! On a current greed streak, I'm trying to improve myself in all aspects, but I know it requires a lot of work, so please share with me what's one positive idea you try to remember every day?

For me, it's waking up early with a good attitude. I really love sleeping, and I try to get as much as I can, but with this kind of life, getting a good amount of rest is tough (No, I don't really need ten hours). Still, the fact I get up to do the things I like doing, despite the hour, motivates me to be up and around with everyone else. Not sure what else to say.. mm..twitter ~~coming up soon with the help of my members, I hope~~ accomplished.

Good luck to everyone with upcoming comebacks, and to everyone who's working hard for theirs!

Also, I consider myself Yixing's birthday gift by getting here, so this is a shout-out just for him. YO!

we've been releasing our teasers one by one the past couple of days and one thing the fans have noticed is that of the three pictures that have been released, all of us are sporting a piercing of some sort. it's no secret that i've always been a big fan of them and i've thought often about getting more than what i already have. i'm not sure i could ever seriously pull off a piercing like the one i may or may not be wearing for comeback (watch us and you can find out~ ^^), but there are a few body piercings i would be willing to get. my question is, would you be willing to get any and if yes, where would you want to get them? what about tattoos?

How do you deal? :^(
I'm sure we've all had this experience at least once in our lives (and i've heard some strange stories about coping with it too..!)
I want to hear yours though (while I deal with my own :^((!!)

I'M SO HAPPY!!!

8D Hi guys. So, I just came back from my very first concert in Australia! I really love Australia, it's such an incredible country (pun intended 8D). The sights, the culture, THE FOOD! You wouldn't think it, but crocodile pizza is really delicious!

So, my question for all of you lovely people is this:

Out of all the places you've been, what is your favorite? What kind of food did you discover? Was it something normal or was it something off the wall that you absolutely loved?

thugsoo — Mon, 30 Sep 2013 05:35:19 GMT

When I start these posts, I always try to remember my month as whole so that I can think about what I want to talk about. And this month we've been to so many places, I've sort of found myself really getting interested in home made recipes from families in the countries we visit. Something that you can always feel reminds you of that country specifically

I recently learned in Russia about a delicious food called Borscht but didn't have enough time to learn something about Germany but hopefully we can go back and I can ask around!

But here's my question, when you travel as an idol or by yourself do you ever bring something back with you? Other than the memories, of course. Maybe collecting visas or postcards or even stamps?

I don't know if I'll make all of the the things that I have recipes for but I think I might start with these peanut butter and jelly cookies from Canada. Look delicious right? (Don't tell the manager hyungs!)

it feels like every time I post one of these, I want to talk about travel. maybe it's because we've been doing so much of it lately, or maybe it's just always the first thing on my mind when trying to think of a topic? either way, today is no different! except I've also been watching a lot of television and movies, so my interest today is foreign films! or shows. which ones are your favorites? bonus points if they aren't american!!

Bbyong! My name is Kim Taehyung, better known as V, of the bulletproof rookie kings (watch our reality show of the same name everyone!), Bangtan Sonyeondan. We're also promoting right now for our first comeback, N.O~♪

I was revealed at the last minute (even though I was there all along) and since then all I've got is our ARMYs throwing their hearts at me because I'm secretly Baekhyun-sunbae's and Daehyun-sunbae's alien son and so I'm ridiculously good-looking. So good-looking, in fact, that I was asked to audition when I was just looking around the company building and ended up being the only one to pass from Daegu~

I'm a vocal and though I don't officially rap, I've been told my voice is preeeetty good for it by our resident appa rapper after our Circle Room Cypher. I'm also a genius for about a minute per day (on average because usually the genius thing doesn't happen for weeks) and this includes being able to speak a little Japanese, though 76.4% of my vocabulary consists of gross love confessions. The rest of the time I'm a weirdo and hair model for fashion-forward lions everywhere.

I sound kinda awesome so far but Park Jimin is the real shining star of the '95 line and even though my face is gorgeous, from the neck down Jimin's got it all. He also cooks way better than I do, because I suck and stooped low enough to sabotage his culinary masterpiece. This plus my complete inability to wake up on time and possessed sleeping habits mean I deserve to be woken up by ultimate super hyper ultra ttakbam from Jimin every morning.

You can reach me at #bui.bui and (get a twitter we're all on it)
