EXO - Music Video Drama Episode 2 Review

In the previous post, titled, "EXO - Growl Review", I talked about the first episode of their music video that Sm created to kill us fans.

A little recap from Episode 1. Luhan and EXO fight this gang, resulting in D.O. getting hospitalized.

Episode 2 starts out with EXO all beaten up, bruised lips, hurt neck, bandaged cheeks, etc. Next, EXO, excluding Luhan, visits D.O., along with the girl. On the other hand, Luhan is sitting in his chair, re-thinking his actions.

Luhan watches from afar, making eye-contact with the girl. Oh the drama feels.  Obviously, Luhan is also bruised up just as badly as EXO, so he limps and clings onto his limbs while the girl chases after him. He falls, and the girl takes him home TO HIS HOME FML

Kai sees them together, and he becomes angry. The other gang's rookie takes a picture of Luhan with the girl, and shows it to his boss. Thus, they take the girl and try to lure Luhan in with her. As in any drama, the boy runs to the girl, but this time, Luhan doesn't use his strength to it's max. Stupid kid your precious EXO isn't here. go all out. 

EXO comes and saves his butt. Sadly, Luhan gets hit on the head by a baseball stick and falls to the ground. The girl cries and somehow magically, her tear drop falls onto his symbol. It disappears and the next scene displays a very infuriated Kris.

Sorry, that was all just a recap, but it helps readers get an idea of what's happening. Now, for the review.

Luhan is really depressed to the point where he would even die just to not show his power and scare the girl. (The girl is really annoying me. Not sure if it's her acting or not.) There was this one scene in the gang vs Luhan part, where this member smacked Luhan on the butt. I was laughing for a good 5 minutes until my mom thought I was on drugs. /coughcough

What I interpret from this is that Kris is the one who gave Luhan the "wolf" powers, as I stated in the last review. Luhan is not supposed to fall in love with a female because he's sent into the human world to complete a task. Kris, from experience I suppose, knows that falling in love with a girl clouds your mind and will divert your attention from your task. Also, the only way for one to become human is if one who dearly loves you cries for you (note that the tear drop must drop on the symbol, if it doesn't, well you're screwed). The girl does exactly that and Luhan is turned human. Kris is mad at Luhan, because they were like brothers when they were young.

Luhan left Kris for a girl. His hair also turns black, a human's natural born hair.

Rants:
Where the heck did the gang members go after smacking Luhan? wtf
Why is it that Tao and Kai gets so many shots?
Why does Sehun also fly in the air in the slow motion scenes???
Why do I understand the Chinese subs when I suck at reading Chinese??
Luhan is a pretty good actor... The girl on the other hand.... And sorry Kris, you're bad at acting but you're hot so that makes up for it. I always have to hold in my scream when I see you.

EXO - Growl Review

EXO has come back with their repacked album, XOXO. In the new album, there are three new songs, Lucky, XOXO, and Growl. Growl is the new title song that they are currently promoting.

Heads up, this might just be a spazz post but I'll try to be as professional as I can, most likely that won't happen OTL And I'll be reviewing the drama version, not the dance or legit MV versions.

The beginning starts out with Kris (the tall blonde one with the suitcase), and the dramatic instrumental of <Black Pearl>, doing something with Luhan (the baby looking one who is 24 years old but looks younger than both Emily and I). From this, I interpret that perhaps Kris is the one who gives Luhan his supernatural powers (of the Wolf), and he's the leader of the gang, or so.

Next scene shows Luhan flipping through the air and moving like a wolf. Truthfully speaking, these stunts are really unnecessary. When he's jumping over the air vents, there's that big space to his right that he can "crawl" quickly away from the people he's running from.... Sm, you and your logic. I'm also pretty sure when they show "Luhan" doing the stunts, it's not him but a stuntman....yeah AND WHY WOULD YOU RANDOMLY DO THESE STUNTS AND KICKS AND ALL WHEN PEOPLE ARE CHASING YOU. IT SLOWS YOU DOWN.

I'm going to fast forward to the fighting scene where EXO fights against the other gang. There, Luhan gets out of control when he sees his comrades getting hurt, and his inner beast is released. He accidentally throws D.O. to this stack of boxes, and somehow that hurts D.O. fatally.... by just a few boxes. (Shouldn't the boxes have helped his fall?) Anyhow, Luhan and everyone else is astonished at his own power, and his comrades look at him as if he's some ugly beast.

He falls down in despair and the girl that he met back a few scenes before asks him, "What the heck are you? Who are you?" /fake sad crying No offense, but her crying sounds really surreal. I mean you're an actress right? ...........

This is only Part 1, or as SM changed it, Episode one of this miraculous drama. I bet we have to wait ten thousand years for Episode 2.... Oh, I forgot to mention, but the gang that EXO was fighting consist of SM trainees, and one of them is Juno! (The person from SuJu Ballad)

Watch the drama version here :




Also, don't be tricked by SM. ALL of the scenes were filmed in a box, as always.

EXO-K "What is Love?"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6fPzVNIEB0

I had no idea that EXO would be part of my Top 5....but this song is just whoa. Yeayea I know that this is not a new song but I discover new things from time to time. I personally like the scene when they had a little dance part. You know where Kai and Sehun(?)(I can't even memorize SuJu. You can't expect too much from me here. I think I know 4 max) has those chairs and Kai is like O.O sighh. My bias is either Kai, Sehun, or Luhan. What's yours?

My Beauty Diary 2 Step Sheet Masks

     Hey my lovely girlies~ Recently I been using the 2 Step My Beauty Diary sheet masks.  In my opinions, they are better than the regular My Beauty Diary Masks because it has a package of gel for you to apply after the mask session and better result.


   The one i been using more often would be the   Mountain Cherry Blossom. This mask provides extreme whitening and brightening effect.  omg, it made my skin looked more smoooooth, firm, and white o: The masks are all from Taiwan, and I been using this brand for quite a while now.  I really love This Mountain Cherry Blossom mask so much :3 The mask also comes with a little package of April Cherry Blossom Creamy Gel which you apply it on your face after the mask.  You do not need to apply any other moisturizer or other stuff after the gel.  In a box, it comes with 8 sheets unlike the regular masks that comes with 10 sheets because it is a 2-in-1 kind of thing. I would recommend this mask to those My Beauty Diary Mask lovers.  If you never tried this brand, you should! It really makes a difference in my opinion :]  -Lainie <3

Discovery

Recently I am obsessed over this YouTuber by the name of DJ Masa. This person is truly awesome. With the love of kpop songs so much, I am automatically attracted by these kpop remixes. They hardly sound like remixes but rather a different song completely. I thing I like to do to test out my kpop skills is to try and guess everyone there. I get excited when I see SHINee or hear a line in a song that I know. You guys should really check out this YouTuber.

Link to one of my favorite remixes so far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu_XJidrGLI
