OneKyungsoo - EXO D.O. Official Thread
doitlikethis123 replied to JoJo29's topic in Individual Artists
i agree Having said all these tho, if I take a step back and observe, he does have singing stints, maybe not songs we'd preferred, but they are opportunities taken anyway. And when people talk about Kyungsoo, they rem him as the "actor of Exo", which is his differentiating point from the others. And that is a good thing in a multi-membered grp. If I put myself in other members' fans shoes, he's already doing pretty well, and if I'm SM, having invested equal money into every member, it will only make sense for me to expect returns from all of them. And since Kyungsoo is already doing very well bringing opportunities to himself, I'll better allocate my resources to the other members. This prevents spotlighting only one member, which more often than not, results in imbalance of popularity and dissatisfaction/disbanding. I am, however, concerned on the seemingly low confidence Kyungsoo has in his singing. I rem there was an intv where he said he's honoured to be selected by the choreographer as part of the ballad singing stage during concert, and i'm like "but kyungsoo, you are the main vocal?" tho it cld be a misintepretation, but if the delegation of singing lines is anything like I know of, they usu have no control over which lines they are allocated. and the reduction of lines cld have made kyungsoo think that he's not as good? I also sense that he feels he's not equipped enough to tackle new singing stints. Though I'll like to see that changed with the coming of station 2. Like what Nini and Yeol pointed out, if he's given a task, he'll do it to the best of his abilities. I feel that if SM were to present an opportunity to him from there, he wouldn't refuse? -

I think I can answer this qns. This is basically based on the panelists. I'm not sure whether it's entirely the same for Korea, but in Chinese movies, there's a panelist who decides how many screens and which timeslots a film gets. This will be based on a variety of criterias and every day, how many screens the movie will get the next day will be decided again/shuffled according to attendance, response etc. And this is just my assumption, but I think UNF's odd timing has got to do with the suicide element in the movie. If not for Kyungsoo and Sohyun's draw as leads, I don't think it would even enjoy that many screens tbh. -

Bless Aya u presh presh girl~ Thanks for these translations~ Lookin all the trans so far, it seems that pp who went to watch for Kyungsoo instead of the storyline n genre, were prob bored lol~ Whereas those who knew nothing mch abt the leads n went for melodrama, were very pleased with it~ On the frantic flashback, it echoed what a media reviewer wrote. dis seoulsports review is vry long so i won't trans it, but it mentioned the erratic transition between the young and older version character. and praised the actors natural acting dissolving the awkwardness of the otherwise plain plot. Looking bck at the media reviews, I realized they were all very kind to Kyungsoo ;_; hanfilm: cos Do Kyungsoo's role is quiet, so it seems he didn't 100% unleash his magnanimity/bearing. but it's enough to let people look forward to his next production! ilgan sports: Actors Do Kyungsoo and Kim Sohyun's match is seamless. can't divert one's attention in the 113 mins, really pure and beautiful. reporter lee jihye: Unforgettable has the power to make those who don't believe in love cry with their portrayal of pure love. Do Kyungsoo appeared as face of a youth in first love. focusnews: Do Kyungsoo expressed this role very well. During the movie screening Do Kyungsoo's delicate emotional acting gave the viewers a good impression. -

The article seems to imply that APAN deliberately was mobilizing the fans and then pretending they didn't have anything to do with it? That's what I took away from it, but then, I duno, my Korean is basically shit. Ida, will u want to put this article's translation on Twitter so we can RT it? Thanks! -

Haha~ Sorry, I misread a line~ they were filming it at her friend's uni and her friend called her to tell her at midday so she rushed down to buy coffee for the production team as support~ the fan is pretty awesome, cos she dunno how many staff were there, she just made a rough gauge and bought 30 over cups. and cos one coffee place can't possibly make that many in a short time, she went to 2 coffee places for separate orders so she can get it over there quickly~ and in such cold temp too (today's seoul's first snow) -

agree! and i think 2016 will be a very impt yr for actor soo cos he's one of the leads in both movies. if he makes it, wows pp in a good way, pp prob won't go "he's not ready yet" n all that kinda sh*t when he's nominated in awards~ he'll be a challenging enough contender~ -

incidentally, there was a post in weibo from one of biggest kyungsoo's fanbase regarding this: they were urging e fans to rethink whether to give their all in voting for him in this award cos there were other events coming up that entails more attn- one of which was e jp debut n they were buying his albums~ also from e experience of baeksang. so i think i can safely say, the cnetz didn't put as much effort into voting for this it's alright, my tweet on not sharing was specifically targeted to those who reupload on twitter n tumblr~ when they can juz reblog or quote tweet~ -

i can understd e knetz reactions like they feel e veterans shld have priority but it's still wholly disrespectful to kyungsoo? i mean, it's not like he placed himself in the stupid awards~ daejong isn't exactly known for it's good rep anyway n they prob were juz using kyungsoo's popularity for benefits~ e "no show no awards" clearly shows dat dis prod team has no idea how to run PR -

I think I need to step in here and say smtg cos you are insinuating smtg which can quickly get out of hand in this sensitive fandom: 1. Kyungsoo had asked the same type of question when he was really fair. Now in the same vein, are we gonna say he dislikes fair skin as well? And as I'm the one who translated the article, when he says they are different, the context seems to mean they got tanned differently, Kai was naturally tanned (fact), whilst he got temporarily tanned cos he was under the sun/filming (also fact). 2. Kyungsoo is one of the members whom I've NEVER EVER yet heard him imply anything bad about skin colour. Like if we go back to all the times it was mentioned in the past (by others), he's never made a joke out of it, or ride on it. Like never. Regardless how the society view skin colour issues, in my observation, I've never seen Kyungsoo taking a negative stand towards it. the very fact that he got so tanned yet completely oblivious to it is clear that it's never an issue to him until someone points it out. so I'll appreciate it if we don't imply anything otherwise. -

i totally agree with u on this, and i think u've successfully convinced me that kyungsoo is not that impactful for him to miss a perf, sighz~ i've always thought that kyungsoo's presence is really essential to the grp esp during K-M era cos they've only got like 6 members, and if he missed it, who will carry his lines? suho? i dun think that will ever happen tbh~ look at yesung. :((((( -

it's literally only one person (i read her post) who said that. and she's like the annoying and unreasonable type but many kyungsoo stans are indignant abt it cos kyungsoo had NEVER missed a single perf due to his acting stints. nor any other events tbh~ agreed. lol~ -

doitlikethis123 replied to JoJo29's topic in Individual Artists
i don't think sm is that narrow minded to think vocals can't do acting though. if so, they wouldn't have allowed kyungsoo to accept cart and ioil in e 1st plc. and as answered to theOm, i agree that no members are indispensible, but if given a choice, they'll always always allow the visuals/non-vocal line to do acting stints~ As replied to theOm, i agree that no members are indispensible, and yes, i agree with u that sm has a way to work things around, that's why they allowed kyungsoo accept ioil and cart projects isn't it? it's more of how they delegate the acting jobs to only visuals/non vocal line, that's why kyungsoo is unique in the sense that he's like the only one (again, correct me if i'm wrong), who juggles both main vocal and acting stints. -

doitlikethis123 replied to JoJo29's topic in Individual Artists
i agree that members can be replaced any time. but the fact of the matter is, if given a choice, they'll always choose to keep the main vocals out of acting stints or stuff that can take them away from group activities. i mean, i srsly can't recall anybody in the vocal line who's into serious acting under sm (but that cld also be partly cos most sm artistes suck at acting lol) -

it's not like they have a choice with jonghyun's case. it's more like they have to make do with it. in sm's history, the acting line has always been non main-vocals~ -

well that's different, it's not like sm can make him participate cos he literally can't? it's not like they purposely allowed a main vocal to miss the grp activities to go into acting. -

doitlikethis123 replied to JoJo29's topic in Individual Artists
I'm wondering the same thing as well. I've always thought that Kyungsoo couldn't miss any grp activities for the sheer imptc he has in the grp~ Cos he's a main vocal. Usually for SM grps, I noticed that the main vocals don't get much acting stints. Or things that might take them away from grp schedules~ For eg Siwon, Yoona, Sulli, Taemin, see how they are never the ones in charge of the vocals in the group? Kyungsoo is unique in the sense that, he's the only one who's quintessential in live vocal perf~ In the beginning of CMB comeback, Kyungsoo did actually seem a little sick. Fan accounts have noted his voice condition wasn't good. Baek was sick, Suho was sick. There's another person but i dun rem who~ So he might have caught the virus a little. During intv he kept zoning off. Smtg that I do when I'm sick and on medication actually. -

I dunno who's stirrin it up but nw that Kyungsoo's drama stint is confirmed, and highly likely his movie next, I'm prepared for some salty fans spouting some rubbish. I bet Yeol also has some salty comments currently with his high exposure. And since we're on this, may I add that during IOIL filming, it kept raining. And Kyungsoo's scenes have to be pushed further into the night so he's always filming in the wee hours. This boy hardly got any rest amidst his concert tours. And even with the constant temperature diffc and harsh conditions, I've never once seen him sick. Like never. Not even a cough or sneeze.
