Tao really is so sweet to us fans. <3 Always reassuring and encouraging (Are they still arguing? I don't get why they have to take the discussion on the exo members instagrams. I find it kind of rude to the boys when fans start fullblown fights to the point where they curse and bash each other in the comment sections.) It's and old message from 130120, but it is still beautiful. <3 (sorry, I'm out of upvotes for today)

Xiumin pllaying with Tao (after Tao failed in getting Suho to play with him) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEz1zStkbqg Also, from 90:2014. Whatever they are doing.

Beef bros has been very cuddly this weekend.

The apple appeared first during their first tlp concert in Seoul, where Tao popped out. I think it's just that it's supposed to appear like the member popped up unexpected, like "I'm just here backstage eating an apple in my bathrobe" when suddenly the ones on stage brings them on stage. Now when everyone knows what's about to happen I think the apple is just there as a prop for them to play around with. If you do find any other possible meaning of the apple, please share. (I'm just gonna take this opportunity to post the cute gifs of pouty Tao from that first apple appearance when Chanyeol took it away from him even though I know these are already posted earlier in the thread )

Someone is getting an A+ for his fanservice today: Kissing a fan's hand http://instagram.com/p/s4peVAtXwh/ And having his shirt unbuttoned (not sure how that happened, but I'm not going to complain) http://www.meipai.com/media/124656444 Taking selca with a fan's phone Also, some beef bros from tonight because they are adorable together.

Cr: exo-skeletons I feel like Tao is much stronger than what the general exo-fandom as a whole gives him credit for. And I do agree with him on that if you don't speak out at some point, what is preventing it from getting worse? I was seriously shaking my head at people going "he shouldn't have said anything, it's what they want". But if he doen't speak up when his tolerance level has been crossed, how will people even now that they have crossed it? In the international fandom anyway it seemed that there was less people critisizing him for this message than what he got from the message he posted last september adressing the issue with stalker fans. Maybe people in the I-fandom are starting to realise that hating on idols for speaking up against this issue is just adding to the problem by basically telling them to shut up and take it. Congratulations.

That was an interesting read. Thank you for posting it here. We who cannot read chinese are often missing parts of the puzzle, because everything doesn't get translated and thus there is a chance we percive things worse than it is. Because we don't venture onto the chinese sites, knowing what is cause for concern or not is difficult. As you have said before, the chinese fandom are quite different from the I-fandom which I guess also contributes to our ignorance on some issues. In the end, I just want Tao to be happy and I'll support him in whatever direction of showbiz he wants to go throught. Even if he wants to quit showbiz and raise grasshoppers on a farm in Svalbard then I'll support that decision too. But seeing his latest preview from LOTJ, I don't think that one is very likely. Hi and welcome to the thread

I am happy that we made it past 300 000 views. i am really really happy we did. I ams also a bit tired of the song at the moment. The song is still playing in my head even though I've turned it off now. If you are still looking for the link to the "sehun threw his lightstick to me" fanaccount then I think this might be the one you're looking for. It's here under the spoiler below. I stumbled upon it yesterday by chance while I was traveling back in time on tumblr. I find it a bit worrysome that the antiing has reached the general public and that people are joining in the bashing of an idol they don't even know.

I too was a bit dissapointed with Sehun's BTS, but I still really want to see Tao's. It's like, I want it because I would be curious about if I missed something good if I didn't get to see it. I feel like this game of "if we get this and this many views before this time we'll give you this" are being played by more and more companies of any kind in kpop at the moment. It is a bit annoying, but at the same time I am one of them who buys into their games....

I am doing the same thing, but I think we might be too few people who are watching.... I also saw the number of views decrees from 198 000 views to 196 000 views on my computer so I am a bit confused in general over this. As it is right know, we need about 4200 views per hour to get it to 300 000 in time.

The views are going up too slowly.... I'm very unsure if we'll be able to reach 300 000 views before the time is up. We only have a little more than 24 hours left. So if you have some time to spare, please watch the MV once at least, or at least press the play button and let it play in the background while you do other things. I really want the BTS *puppy eyes*

It's like the deeper you dig, the more of his kind personality comes to light. Wow! This is amazing. No, sorry.... I only now august 2014 too. I think it'll air as soon as the LOTJ Indian Ocean is finished and they are only on the forth episode (broad casted 9th august). Also, I'm quite unsure if Tao will be in the first episodes, because I think he arrived a bit later than some of the other cast members, ( If i remember ??) Congratulations! Hello, welcome to the thread Yes, Tao has really nice lips. And then he: He looks so good! I think my favorite thing about the pictures from news sites is that they don't edit his skin lighter. Hi, nice seeing you here again. I had to check your name history to recognize you. Name changes alway confuse me Hello and welcome to the thread

This one is fake and is one of the rumor that was being spread around to defame Tao. Such a big contrast to this: Cr Baby Panda and Mommy Suho

A cute moment from earlier this year. Because this particular panda thrives on skinship

I heard about the new wave of rumors being spread around in the C-fandom, and it does upset me too that Tao has to see this kind of crap time after time again. I hope C-Hailangs can calm down the storm a bit and refute these rumors. If it does spread to the international fans, then we'll have to keep our calm and promote good news about Tao and work on refuting the rumors here too. Here, have a wet Tao from 2012 to brighten your mood Cafè, welcome back . I've thought about you when all these new TaoKai moment has been popping up lately. I hope you've been well.

Wait, what? Is it postponed yet another day? Don't try my patience SM, set a date and stick to it!

I think you can relax, it is well known that they are friends. They belong to the same group of Chinese idols who is working in south korea. (together with the tasty twins, Fei, Zhoumi, Amber, and several others). Jia is apparently the "leader" of the group (or the one who usually arrange them to meet up and celebrate chinese customs when they cannot return home for the celebrations). So if someone were to go on WGM with Tao, Jia is probably one of the "safest" choice of them all. Oh, Crap.... I hate this. Maybe I should make an instagram account and send her a bunch of nice messages to counter some of this shit. and appologize for the imature brats in our fandom who think they own "oppa"

It probably does not mean that he is ok now. I think his foot will take a while for to heal, especially considering what nyny_68 and Chinaline has said when they discussed the injury (because they both have medical background). I might be wrong about the time when toe photo was taken though, it might be before he left and just the lightning making Luhan's hair look light in color. But we didn't see his foot in the picture and he has his right leg crossed over his left so if his right foot was injured when the picture was taken he would not have it on the ground. So I don't know. As someone said above, it does look like it could be the BTS of a photo shoot, but I hope if that is the case that he is still taking it easy.

I think after LOTJ. Because Luhan's hair looks light in color and he changed it after he was done filming his movie, and I think the last day of filming was the 24th and then Tao was already in the jungle.

The gifs are from smtown 131225 Here is a fancam by TikTakTao from the ending Remove the ?modal=true and it'll work.

Chen pinching Tao's cheeks. Cutie Also, I found some gifs from a scene out of a certain forum member's nightmare. Taosoo!!

Yes please, this is a great solution! If you don't like a certain pairing do this, or if not an option try to ignore it as much as possible. And avoid the official shipper threads if they bother you much. Going there with the only purpose to express dislike is really unessessary. We wouldn't like it much if haters come in here with the only purpose of hating on Tao. (And please, whatever you do. don't go shoving the hate in the face of the person you don't like hanging out with Tao. This has happened too many times to Tao himself, just as littlebananas said above, Kris fans directed hateful comments towards Tao in 2012-2013 saying that Kris is to good for Tao, that Tao aren't worthy enough to even touch Kris and so on. It got really bad.... And then in 2014, Tao got a massive hate wave from Hunhan shippers especially when Sehun went to Qingdao for CNY. Tao got comments saying that he wasn't good enough for Sehun. That Sehun belonged to Luhan and that Tao should just get out of their way. And so on. They even attacked Tao's deaf friend, saying that a deaf person shouldn't hang out with Sehun. . After the Qingdao trip, Tao seemed really sad and low for about a week and I believe this hate wave played a big part of it)

Of course he would insist on doing the concert whatever the others say. Were there really any doubts about that? Well, at least he's sitting this one down.

2 million instagram followers!!

Seeing him in a wheelchair during rehersals both breaks my heart, because he is hurt, and relieves me, because he is actually taking it easy. I hope he takes it easy during the concert too. I have to admitt that I am... I have his instagram open in a separate tab and keep refreshing it every few minutes.
