He actually is though 

Kris doing more activities and meeting more people

No. It seems like Kris is busier and gets more invites than Luhan. I don't see news of Lulu out and about like I do Kris. But maybe I'm basing this off of trivial things.

 

luhan can't do the same kind of traveling that kris can because of his airplane fear.  he takes more ~local~ activities.  but he has like three movies lined up and a shit load of endorsements so he's not exactly hurting?

well, it doesn't really have to mean anything

 

maybe he also gets many invites, but he could very well not attend or accept everything. after one of the reasons he left EXO because he couldn't keep up with their exhausting schedule, I think

I think that's because Lu Han fans don't promote his activities as much as WYF fans. They don't have the insecurity.

Luhan recently got admitted into hospital....agree with you, I'm thankful his taking things at a slower pace.

Kris face is more suitable to act as the main guy in drama than Luhan. Like, his face appeal to general public more than Luhan.

Kris is more popular than Luhan in China, at least on weibo.

My mum updates me with what Kris is doing every few days and she only use weibo. She's definitely not a Kris/exo fan but i show her enough exo for her to know the name+ face of every member.

I think they are the same range right now, but I put my bet Kris will be more popular in 1/2 years.

Kris looks really fit of an actor and he seems really well like by people in the industry (like from fellow actors, producers etc) cuz he is socialize and well spoken, and get lots of media coverage. Kris is overall more trendy than Luhan right now.

 

Luhan is more popular in EXO becuz his image really fit to be an idol (he is so perfect for it), but right now both of them working to be an actor. I think Kris seems more advantage in a long run. Who knows in the future though.... :lol:  :lol:

I think Kris is trying going down the A-list actor road (-ish). Or that is what it looks like to us, with him meeting those famous people and all that. At the same time he is trendy. So it seems as though he is more famous. 

 

WYF is probably more well-known because he is doing a lot of things, whereas other than 20 Once Again I feel like Luhan hasn't done much yet. Plus WYF somehow is involved with Tiny Times and all now, so he's gone to the, er, trendy side. Luhan needs to start getting more roles from popular dramas or he's going to be stuck doing Chinese-Korean dramas/movies, and will never get, say, a Tangren drama role. 

 

Idk how to explain it but WYF is doing better atm. Luhan is has a bigger fanbase and have more casual fans though. I feel like WYF is well-known but not necessarily as popular as Luhan.

I don't know if you are trolling but ...

 

What do you mean by popularity? Because luhan's fanbase in china is out of reach he outsold kris' magazines by millions ....

Or if you are talking about general public then I agree... Kris is way more recognize by general public than lu

I think his team has said they're being quite selective with his work, only choosing ones that fulfil Luhan's best interests. Plus, Lu is known to be a very lowkey/modest celebrity (as many others have commented on) so its no surprise you don't hear about him 24/7.

 

But in case you're interested, he's acting in a Hollywood movie directed by Zhang Yimou and starring Matt Damon. Also, promotional posters for his new movie Blind, with Yangmi, have just come out~

Luhan is doing good and he has his fanbase anyway? Threads like this aren't necessary because one side gets defensive and another side gets defensive too and it becomes a mess (see the old threads with topics like this).

 

I do think Luhan has to get a male lead role or do something to get the public to recognize him because that's the most important thing in the long run.

.........this is not even accurate at all lol. Kris sold like 16k copies of Vogue China in 8 minutes (even his latest cover, L'Officiel went out of stock a little while after it was put up for sale and the mag had to reprint more copies) while the last mag Luhan put out (which was GQ Style) sold 7k copies in an hour. That's incredibly impressive.. but you're not telling what actually happened. Both fanbases have huge buying power.

I saw something about it on weibo, comparisons about their sales, it's impossible to find the link again so ...ok ....

 

But still, luhan's fanbase is out of reach.

They are totally different. Luhan is known for being lowkey and Kris for being very sociable. To me Kris comes off as more ambitious, whereas Luhan works at a pace he's most comfortable with, not to mention Lu's also restricted by his acrophobia.

They're both doing great tho, no need to compare

It used to be... Kris' fanbase grew exponentially bigger since he left though. So they're about equal now, if we're gonna base it on buying power, that is.

 

Although, if you add international fans, Luhan still has a bunch of his Korean fans and he also has a rather decent following in Japan so he probably has a bigger international fanbase than Kris does now. Kris lost most of his Korean fans and he was never that big in Japan.
