[TRANS] 130517 EXO-M Ceci Magazine interview

Kris:

Attractive points: Though he appears to be smart, he is actually a bit blur. Though he appears to be very cold and distant in a glance, he is actually very passionate and fiery on the inside. A very handsome man. Nationality: Chinese.

Break time: Went back to Canada to meet my family and friends. I want to try parachuting or play in the seas for a whole day. I want to become more ACTIVE. Because I like travelling, so once I have the time I will start planning.

To boast about IDOL life: Though countless, but being able to travel to many countries (to perform) is one of the many blessings I’ve received.

New hairstyle: Because it is the comeback album, I wanted to be bold and hence went through the image transformation. The good thing about this new hairstyle is that now I take a shorter time to style my hair. The negative point is that I cannot try different concepts/styles. Feel like crying about the latter.

Recently concerned about?: Hairstyle, cap, “electronic music”

Items I love: Fan letters anytime.

Certified fan of dramas: There was a period of time whereby I was deeply immersed in the drama: The Innocent Man/ Nice Guy. I felt like I was the male lead Kang Maru (T/N: PLAYED BY SONGJOONGKI~~). Solid plot, and the acting was really great. 

Three important things in a love relationship: Love, love, love.

How to confess: I like you, what do I do?

Expected reaction: O_O, ^-^, ^O^, <3.

Self promote/ ego time: Fluent Chinese, English and Korean. Because of the many overseas schedule, this is quite important.

Praising the other members: SUHO is a handsome kid who always manages to do everything well. Baekhyun is good at hyping up the atmosphere. Kai is good at dancing, Chen is good at singing. Tao is very good at understanding the hyungs’ hearts, Xiumin likes to help people, D.O likes to take care of the members so I’m very thankful for that. Also grateful towards Lay who is good at cooking, Luhan who is good at soccer but I’m in charge of basketball and that’s enough so I’m thankful as well. And also thanks to Sehun who is doing the job of a maknae well. Oh and Chanyeol, thanks for your fried chicken. 

People you wish to correct/change: Nothing. Because I’m kind so I’ll observe for a while more. I love everyone.

To fans: Thank you for waiting for me, supporting me. I will repay you guys with a good album.

Kris user manual: To eat enough, and sleep enough. Maybe many people don’t know, there exist a certain amount of cuteness. And as long as he is loved, he is a kindhearted man who will give back with love that is twice of the amount.

Luhan:

Attractive point: Chinese name means- deer of the dawn. Main vocal and dancer. Nationality- Chinese.

Thoughts on the 12 EXO members being together: The time we share everyday is as interesting as that of a classroom setting. Whenever we are in the practice room, it is rowdiness x12. But when training starts, the look in our eyes changes immediately. The fiery look is also x12.

Comeback album: A style that is different from the others. Because it is a secret I wouldn’t say it now. shhhh..

Break time: Not long ago I returned to my home in China, did what an only-child should do.

Regrets when you look into the mirror: I am very satisfied with whatever my parents have given me.

Moments when I feel that I’m very manly: Anytime. Especially when I’m playing soccer, I’m manlier then.

Thoughts on your Crazy Frog nickname: That’s Tao. Only he feels that way.

To send a message to one of the members now with your telekinesis power: When the interview ends let’s go grab a cup of bubble tea!

Luhan’s Korean class, your favourite phrase recently: “Aigoo” Whenever I’m in shock, pity, worried, every time. And “Heol”.

Things you treasure: Recently I like RPG games and gaming PCs. And my bed, which only belongs to me. If only the cupboard can prevent people from getting on my bed to play.

When you are online: I will look for my photos, my mood will liften up whenever I see the beautifully taken pictures of me by my fans. Thank you.

Proposal: At an empty street at night, I’ll bring her flowers and kiss her.

If you receive a confession: It’ll be great if she can cook me a meal, talking about ingredients, since I’m a carnivore, meat will do.

Reasons why Luhan is the perfect boyfriend: Good natured, will protect her no matter when, and of course, very handsome. Haha, joking about the last part.

Message to fans: Thank you for waiting for so long, I love you all.

Luhan user manual: When I have no more strength and when it’s tough, a little care and concern will do, just a “It must have been really tiring right? Hwaiting!” will do. And I will really gain much strength from that. Basically, I’m very shy, afraid of strangers, but once we get closer, I am really warm. Hope you guys understand. ^_^

Lay:

Attractive point: Warm guy, healing boy. Nationality- Chinese

Praises you want to hear: This is my first time attempting a blonde/ yellow hairstyle. So I’m half anticipating and half worried about what people will say about whether it suits me.

Break time: For myself, it would be composing songs and writing lyrics. Improving on what I’m weak in after attending lessons. And of course, this time my songs weren’t chosen for this album. In order to be able to show my perfect side, I wish to work hard so that everyone can listen to my composition.

Regarding Lay’s composition: Started composing for fun since 13 years old. Out of the members, Baekhyun and Luhan love my ballads the most, they are my support team.
Kris is my assistant in the editing process of my composition. So here I am, saying thank you to you guys.

To Lay, composing is: I feel that the most important thing is the heartfelt intentions between people. I belong to the sentimental/emotional type, I get my inspiration from the the details you miss in a short experience, the family members whom I love, friends, and the emotions I get from my five senses, and when I am playing the piano.

Musicians you respect and admire: Determined Beethoven and exceptionally talented music genius Mozart.

Area in which you are better than them?: I’m better at dancing, compared to them.

SM seniors: They always encourage us, giving us detailed tips in aspects like live performances, choreography, or camera works. They are all angels.

Secret skill people don’t know: Ability to joke around. It’s such a pity people don’t know my comedic skills.

Dance machine’s waist status: Thanks to everyone, it’s a lot better now. I can only say thank you.

Things you treasure: You can’t really say things, but rather, humans, people. Because of the fans, there’s the present me. I definitely have to treasure and cherish them.

Confession: “I will make you the most blissful woman on earth. Trust me.”

Reasons why Lay is the perfect boyfriend: I can give my all and love only one woman wholeheartedly, I can do anything for her, I can give her warm hugs.

3 things you anticipate from ‘her’: Call her little piggy, and not feel sad about it. And I will face her cutely; she will only love me, understands me, and does aegyo to me occasionally.

Lay’s aegyo: zero, I’m very manly.

To Asian fans:Thank you for caring about me no matter where you are, may you guys be healthy and happy.

Lay’s user manual: No coke and soda and I won’t eat. But you still have to say you love me, kay? And hug my warmly and I’ll become better. 

Tao:

Attractive points: Different from his (mature) outer appearance, the second maknae enjoys fooling around and playing (like a kid). Nationality, Chinese.

During break time: Eat, exercise, prepare for the new album. Keep repeating and repeating and repeating these three activities. 

Thoughts on coming together as 12: PERFORMANCE scale became even bigger. The power we share becomes even stronger. Because we have gathered together, practice time became twice as happy and fun. And due to this, I feel that our TEAM WORK has improved. 

You tend to have many tears..: It used to be like this last time, but not now. The last time I cried was a few days ago, when I returned to China during my holiday/leave, and on the plane back to Korea, when I think of the fact that I cannot see my family and friends for a period of time in the future made me tear. Actually, this is supposed to be a secret.

If you use your TIME CONTROL power: When I see bad guys doing bad stuff, I will catch him and send him to the police, or, persuade him not to commit the crime. And when I see pretty ladies, I also hope that time will slow down. Like this, I can then keep staring at her. 

The power you want most: No matter how I think, it would be TIME CONTROL.

Banmal (Informal speaking) GAME TIME: Suho ya, can you give me some rice? Ne, the main point is to say it heartedly. But honestly, (Suho) hyung is really good to me. Because I like him so I want to mention him. 

Ideal type: It would be good if she is pretty and kindhearted. I gain interest in girls who are not showing concern to me. Why is this so? 

Reasons why Tao is the perfect boyfriend: Wellmannered, sexy, good at wushu. And he is a man who is rich spiritually and economically (bankbook wise). Able to demonstrate the uniqueness of an AB-bloodtype bad boy. As lively and energetic as a roller coaster, and I will make your day not boring. 

Tao selca secret: Take many photos (Bulk produce). You have to figure out your best angle yourself.

What is sexy to Tao?: Something I’m born with.

To the sexy Tao, what are dark eye circles?: Without them, I, I am not Tao anymore.

To the Tao 1 year lateR: All your dreams will come true. FIGHTING.

Tao user manual: I can’t make the first move. So, just come to me passionately. To become mine fully takes time. But even if so, do take up the challenge! Must!

Xiumin:

Attractive point: Gwiyomi hyung.

Break time: With Luhan, going to cafes and shopping together, and enjoying personal time.

Xiumin’s shopping methods: As expected, shopping is about impulse and that’s the truth.

TIP for losing face fats: Becoming indifferent and cruel in front of food. Firstly, don’t even try to steal a glance at it. Though I find that difficult and I think I’ll become a puffy baozi soon.

Advantages and disadvantages of a baby face: I will face the danger of people who are younger than me speaking to me in informal language when we first meet each other. Not sure about the benefits. But the body of a 24 year old is definitely present, I’m obviously different from yesterday. coughs coughs

The dignity of the oldest: Being the oldest according to our identification cards (birth dates) is something very important amongst guys. Once there’s SOS and when situations crop up, I am required to deal with it. Though the things might be very small and irrelevant.

Xiumin’s conversation habits: Will reply carefully to every single question directed at me, and have a very good pair of listening ears. My earnest attitude and my rich reactions gave me the job of being EXO’s troubleshooter. The things we have discussed recently are not meant to be disclosed.

Xiumin’s Chinese classroom, phrases/words you have learnt recently: Dui bu qi, wo bu hui (Sorry, I don’t know). Because being a listener, it is a requirement to have tight lips.

Thing you are most concerned about: Received a set of manga books for the first anniversary and I’m reading it well~

Reasons why Xiumin is the perfect boyfriend: Has great strength, sense that accompanied him since birth, benevolent. Evidence for the great strength would be that he won all members in arm wrestling.

If you were to confess: To the many “her”s who filled the stadium during my concert I’ll shout: We are one! I can never leave you, I love you!

Boast about the award you received in China: Recently we won the Most Popular Group award. Like what the award says, it’s the best! oh, yeah~ Thank you, fans who gave us this big award. And also thankful for EXO’s parents who gave birth to such handsome kids. Xiexie (thank you)

Award you wish to receive next year: “Successful image change award”. From this year on I want to become a mature and sexy man.

Xiumin user manual: Very simple. As long as the environment is kept clean and tidy I will always have a “happy smile”. I’m kinda like a neat freak.

Chen:

Charming appeal: main vocal, skinny pig

explanation of ‘skinny pig’: a concern of mine is that i don’t gain as much weight proportionate to the amount of food i eat. i don’t gain weight even when i eat and eat, however, i lose weight very easily. so this time i paid lots of attention to gaining weight so that my face would fill out and be nice to look at.

During the break: fearing that i might become lazy, i kept my thoughts under tight control. multiply the length the gap that we weren’t around by several-fold (the extent of how much he disciplined his mind).

Ideal type that moves me: charming eyes, faithful personality, an open mind who can accept my complaints.

If you were to propose: while watching a night parade at an amusement park i’ll pretend to buy some drinks and disappear for a while only to surprise her by stepping out of the parade line. and after that i’ll ask her, ‘will you marry me?’

Response you anticipate from her: i hope she falls into my arms after that.

If you were to be proposed to: there’s no need for that. the words ‘i love you’ are enough. 

If you were to insure something for 10 billion: my vocal cords. i want to sing for the rest of my life.

EXO’s get-togethers: noisy, a market street, chaos. even if the 12 members say just one word each it’s truly amazing.

Members’ drinking capacity: the strongest drinkers are xiumin hyung - chanyeol - chen - kris hyung - luhan hyung in that order. the other members are rather similar, but lay hyung who flushes with just one glass is surely in last place.

3 dreams you would like to wish for to God: i’m curious about the afterlife. i’ll just look around. if there are aliens in this universe please bring them to me. i want to have a panacea for all kinds of illnesses.

3 of chen’s charming points: my thick earlobes that call on good fortune, the mole beneath my throat, manly personality, a sense of loyalty loaded with options.

Baekhyun, Chanyeol, and Chen’s three-man ‘beagle’ line is: a misunderstanding. compared to Baekhyun and Chanyeol i am an extremely ordinary kid.

Talent you want to steal: Lay hyung and Kai’s dance instincts.
For chen, that “today it’s an insurmountable 4th dimensional wall” called dance is: i have no comment on that for today. i will show you soon through our performances.
(T/N: during the last ceci interview chen was asked what dance was to him and he answered, “as for today, it’s an insurmountable 4th dimensional wall,” which means that it’s in another dimension and he can’t conquer it.)

Chen’s user manual: as long he is given a meal and snacks from time to time he will be bursting with energy. if you leave him unattended there is no need to worry as he does well by himself. he likes watching movies. if you’d like to go out together please take him to the cinema.
