Yixing's largest Chinese fansite XingPark has set up a charity fund in Yixing's name under the V-Fund charity, just in time for his birthday on October 7th! Mango V-Fund is a charity run by the Hunan Broadcasting System (aka the people that brought us Happy Camp) and focuses primarily on health and education of children and youths.  Dubbed "Mango V-Fund - Zhang Yixing Fans Charitable Fund", this new project has been approved for a period of 5 years (= ONGOING!!).




EXO's POP MAGAZINE 570th ISSUE


HOHO!! YOU GUYS MUST SEE THIS!! RECOMMENDED VERY WELL 

POP: Firstly, congratulations on ‘Wolf and a Beauty’ winning first place! The sales for your first official album are completely daebak!
EXO: Oh Wah Oh~ Thank you (currently applauding clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap)!
POP: Next up, the promotions for your follow up track are soon about to begin. ‘Growl’ has given many people the feeling that it will be a huge success, it sounds really good. We really want to know, what do you think is the biggest killer (T/N: what they think is most powerful and affects the fans the most)?
SUHO: (looks at LUHAN) Say it.
LUHAN: (blurts out Korean) Rather than saying that it is killer, why don’t we say that it is the charms of our follow up track?
POP: You can explain it that way as well.
LUHAN: Mm, I feel that we are rather confident in terms of it being fresh and appealing; what we must say is that ‘Growl’ has a melody that is unusually addictive. After listening to it once, you will be able to sing it, right? (Xiao Dang nods) In our previous album, there were many songs with different genres, but this song is different from them all. When we first heard it, we liked it a lot, and got captivated by it.
BAEKHYUN: (To Xiao Dang’s recorder: I am Bo Xian) With ‘Growl’ we acknowledge the melody and lyrics. Be it the recording or dance practices, we enjoyed it very much. The choreography this time has been matched with unique dance moves, using a lot of crotch and waist, but it will give fans a brand new feel, and will give the masses a different kind of impact visually.
LAY: I’d like to add on that this song has a very different style from the previous ones we’ve shown. When it comes out, you’ll know - its beat is very clean, and the melody easy on the ear. It is easy to get addicted to the chorus, and as a whole, this song gives a laid-back feel. You can say it’s sexy yet cool; it’s very fresh.

— [INTERVIEW] 130924 - “EXO ② EXO is One Team”




We can only describe it as a surprising happening. The phenomenon that EXO recently showed was one that was unpredicted from a rookie who debuted just over one year ago. ‘Growl,’ which was released over a month ago is still in the top 5 on music charts and their first album and repackage album sales combined together surpassed way over 700 thousand albums. Debuting with ‘MAMA’ in April 2014, after having a hiatus of around one year, they passed ‘Wolf and Beauty’ and can now say they were a success by certainly stamping the name EXO with ‘Growl.’ And during the time of debut the 12 members that were split into EXO-K, Korean promotions team, and EXO-M, Chinese promotions team, have become one like their cheer, “WE ARE ONE” and showed a performance on the next level. In order to ask them how they were able to grow in such a fast time, met EXO. EXO interviews that will be revealed throughout four days, the second day, we prepared the way EXO practices together and the back story to their appearance on On top of that, you can also meet Suho and Baekhyun, Chen and Lay’s detailed stories.

Less than 48 Hours: Luhan Blazes Through Beijing and Wild Deer Sightings!


This post is late but better late than never! I thought I'd just share some interesting news and fan accounts from Luhan's home visit just a few days ago.

We all know Luhan is one of China's favorite sons but China's thirst for him continues to amaze me every time.  Luhan was in Beijing for less than 48 hours but the local media practically pounced on him.

Chen's Post!!


LOOK WHO'S BIRTHDAY IT IS!!
URI JONGDAEE

It's Chen's 21st (22nd in Korean age) birthday! You know what this means? HE'S INTERNATIONALLY LEGAL! Everybody's welcome to celebrate! We'll be putting comments one at a time, labelled with parts of Chen we're celebrating, like "Tribute to Chen's Awesome Hair" or "Tribute to Chenry Potter" where we can spam, so you can spam any Chen of your choosing (and we keep it clean for those who can't handle all the awesomeness in data). Feel free to suggest another tribute too!
Of course, it's not a birthday party without games, but unfortunately, we're unable to send alcohol through the internet. May we interest you in a test of Chen knowledge instead and a virtual toast to the overlord's gloriousness? We’ll be putting up quizzes later to test how much you know about Overlord Jongdae and your worthiness as a worshipper. In the meantime, PARTY AWAY!


Well, we said a party isn't one without games, we have a little something to keep the party going! For the first part, we have a few questions to test how well you know the Overlord Jongdae 
STAY TUNED FOR THE NEXT PART. THIS IS A LONG PARTY.


The other quiz tested some knowledge, but this one tests familiarity! See if you can identify Jongdae! We'll be putting the images and sound clips here and the questions will be like the last one.

GOOD LUCK AND PARTY ON FOR THE FUNKY FUNKY CHEN!
I'm up all night searching for this, hope you play well. Sorry for being late

130914 Top Chinese Music Poll – No. 1 Flower Boy in Asian Music - Luhan

Translation of Luhan’s Cut (14:56 to 16:48)

Found this somewhere after i did some research, thought it will bring happiness to Luhan-stan.. 
So, i just copy and paste. Anyway, Enjoy! [also there's more stuff below] 

Voice-Over (Part 1):
No. 1 Flower Boy in Asian Music: Luhan
Number of votes garnered: 14, 261

For the poll this time, the person who got more votes than the popular Heechul is Luhan, his junior from the same company. Recognised widely for its ability to churn out idol groups, SM launched EXO last year. Many members of the group are known for their looks and have attracted tons of fans due to their outstanding appearance since their debut.Nicknamed Lu-Eighteen for his ever-youthful appearance and exquisite features, Luhan is the most representative flower boy.

Kids’ Interviews (this part is hilarious):
Girl1: I think this gege looks a little like a duck…he also looks like a swan!
Girl 2: This gege looks like a high-schooler!
Girl 1: This gege is very fashionable!
Girl 3: I think he’s 25 years old! He has such big eyes!
Boy1: His face is quite good-looking!
Girl1: He has a nice mouth!
Girl 2: His eyes are big and expressive!
Girl 3: His hair is a mess!
Girl 1: He has very fair skin!
Girl 3: He is showing his teeth and he is smiling!

Voice-Over (Part 2):

Due to his outstanding looks, bubbly personality and cuteness, Luhan has attracted the affection of countless girls. At the same time, he has excellent dancing and singing abilities and is arguably one of the most well-rounded members of the group. This is also one of the main reasons for his high popularity.

(Note: 2nd Place: Heechul (7015 votes), 3rd Place: Chen Xiang (4120 votes), 4th Place: Nichkhun (3910 votes) and 5thPlace: Aaron Yan (3097 votes))

[ENG SUB] 130916 EXO Interview with Billboard



LOL I don't know why I'm amused that it says English Subbed but half of the interview is in English. The level of understanding/engagement when Kris is speaking English or Yixing is speaking Mandarin makes it even more amusing when compared to the members speaking Korean.
