"He wasn't born an idol; he just turned growing pains into a crown."

25L【Original Poster】
This thread has turned into a fan-hat war... But to sum up, Ouyang Guang is definitely a royal family, but he does have the qualifications and strength to support it. KAI is also a royal family, but not as outrageous as him. As for the other members, they are the ones who are miserable.
26L: It’s too late, too late! I must first complain about Ouyang Guang’s resources. He is the lead singer, the main dancer, and the front rapper. Even the final trailer looks like a coronation ceremony! But to be honest, there is nothing wrong with his face. In the photo lying on the grass, his facial features are as delicate as Greek sculptures; when he plays the cello, his eyelashes cast a small fan-like shadow under his eyes. His appearance is really good, and he can’t be criticized at all!
27L: Cowboys are my favorite! With a height of 187cm and sharp facial features, he has a very attractive aura.
28L: I am dying of laughter. People above are still discussing about appearance. I will start the conversation first! Why does Kim Jong-hwa have 13 trailers? Isn't he the main dancer? Does being a good dancer make him superior? This group is basically a "royal family gathering". Ouyang Guang and Kim Jong-hwa are the two leading the team. The others are just supporting roles!
29L: Stop arguing! Let's take a serious look at Tao's appearance - CHANYEOL must have a name! When he smiles, his face is full of cute big dog looks, and when he opens his mouth, his bass voice is so sweet that his legs are weak. And his iconic big teeth, the boyish feeling is directly full! However, there are not many shots of him in the trailer. I hope he can show his face more after his debut.
41L: Back to Ouyang Guang, I just saw someone sorted out the voting data - his vote rate is 60% higher than the second place LUHAN! Although everyone in the comment area is scolding him for being a royal family, there is really no negative review about his appearance. Some people say that he looks like an aristocrat who walked out of an oil painting, and some people say that he is a "comic book boy with a natural face". This face is simply chased by God to feed him!
42L: I suddenly realized something! EXO members have so many different looks, they are a perfect group... Is Lee Soo Man planning to bombard all of Asia with his "look matrix"? But here comes the question, will there be too many handsome guys in the group and they will steal the limelight?
43L: The truth is revealed above! This group is destined to be a "perfect-looking group". With so many good-looking members squeezed together, resource allocation must be a big problem. And someone broke the news that SM's budget for clothing and styling alone exceeded that of any previous boy group in order to create EXO. This investment is simply terrifying!
48L: What are your predictions for EXO's group variety show? I think there will be a lot of funny and heartwarming moments. After all, the members have different personalities, and it will be interesting to see them collide with each other.
55L: Back to the "royal family theory" of the entire group, I think it's not groundless. From the number of previews, we can see how much SM values EXO. But think about it from another perspective, with such a big investment, maybe they can really create the next TVXQ or Super Junior? After all, Lee Soo Man has a sharp eye.
58L: Let's predict the debut prospects! This group has five Chinese members, and it is obviously aimed at expanding the Chinese market. But the uneven distribution of resources may become a hidden danger, especially the controversy over Ouyang Guang's "royal family". If it is not handled well, fans will definitely resist. However, in terms of appearance and strength, this configuration does have the potential to become a hit.
60L: To summarize the current discussion, Ouyang Guang is the most beautiful but there are constant controversies about his royal family; Kim Jong-hyun is questioned because of his abundant resources; the resources of the five Chinese members are not evenly distributed, and Zhang Yixing, KRIS, LUHAN, and TAO are in a worrying situation; the whole group is very beautiful but faces the problem of resource allocation; the debut prospects are polarized, some are optimistic and some are pessimistic. Please continue to pay attention, and enjoy the melons at any time!
66L: I just saw the post next to me digging into Ouyangguang's family background! Someone who claims to be his junior high school classmate broke the news, saying that his family is engaged in cross-border trade, and he has learned various musical instruments since he was a child, and often goes abroad to participate in competitions. Combined with the special treatment he received when he joined SM, his royal family identity is becoming more and more confirmed!
74L: Let me complain about SM's costumes! Some members' preview costumes are really addictive.
75L: One prediction! After the debut, the fans will definitely fight over resources. The fans of Ouyang Guang and the fans of other members will probably fight for 300 rounds. It depends on how SM controls the situation.
78L: I'm just curious, after EXO was divided into Team K and Team M, will the popularity of the members change? For example, will the Chinese members be more popular with domestic fans in Team M? But Ouyang Yang has activities in both teams, and it seems that SM wants to make him a multinational superstar.
95L: Predict the style of the debut song! Judging from the trailer, it will definitely be a fusion of electronic music, classical instruments and strong dance rhythms. But I am afraid that this hodgepodge style will end up being neither fish nor fowl. I hope SM can find the right balance.
97L: I just saw a great comment - "Ouyang Guang is the most handsome guy among the royal family, a royal family with the most handsome guy", which made me laugh to death. Although it is not making fun of him, it is also a disguised acknowledgement of his looks!
98L: To be honest, Huang Zitao's martial arts skills can definitely become a highlight of the group! I suggest SM incorporate more Chinese martial arts elements into their stage designs in the future, which will definitely attract more foreign fans.
99L: Has anyone analyzed EXO's fan base? I feel like the age range is quite wide, from teenage students to office workers in their twenties and thirties, they are all fans, after all, their looks and skills are so impressive.
100L: Finally, no matter how much people curse the royal family, when EXO debuts, we will still follow them. After all, who doesn’t like to watch handsome guys? Looking forward to their performance on stage!
101L: Let me dig up some old news! When Ouyang Guang first joined SM, there was a rumor that he was the trainee "selected by the president". Many people didn't believe it at the time, but now it seems that this rumor is very credible!
107L: Does anyone predict EXO's album sales after their debut? I feel like with their current popularity, it shouldn't be a problem for them to sell over 100,000 copies? After all, they are so good-looking and popular.
113L: I'm just curious, will EXO collaborate with senior groups after their debut? For example, performing on stage with TVXQ and Super Junior, that would be a blast!
114L: Let me complain about SM's trailer editing! Some members' trailers were edited in a mess, not highlighting their strengths at all. On the other hand, Ouyang Guang's trailer was edited carefully in every frame, and the difference in treatment is too obvious.
115L: The above person, it is obvious that Ouyang Guang is not on the same level of beauty as them. My Ouyang Guang’s looks are better than the whole group and the whole SM company.
