“I love you.”

The words resonated across the table to your ears. You heard them quite clearly. But somehow your brain cannot register its meaning. You’d heard these words strung together in a sentence many times in your life. But right now rather than hearing the words and processing its meaning, you are somehow only able to know that these sounds had in fact reached your ears.

You stared at his face blankly. He was looking back at you. His eyes soft but intently focused on yours. His brows furrowed as if in a frown but you know that’s just how they naturally fall when he’s very focused on something.

Your eyes moved away from his gaze. You noticed his lips were pressed together in a tight line. Your eyes lingered for a second on the little mole that rested on the side of his neck. Your eyes followed the lines of his body - his neck, his collarbones protruding from underneath soft, glowy skin. The white linen shirt which rested comfortably over his chest and shoulders. His body leaning lazily back in his chair, his elbows propped on its handles, fingers laced together in his lap.

Say something, you told yourself. Say anything.

And yet you couldn’t find your voice. Instead you shifted your gaze out over the railing of the deck where you two were sat down for dinner. A stretch of beautiful trees and stone houses lining the hills leading down to a perfectly blue Mediterranean sea, the sunset and clouds a watercolor painting of striking purples, reds, and auburn in the distance.

“Y/N.”

You were brought back from your thoughts by a stern but soft voice, and the touch of his hand on yours resting on the tabletop.

You finally registered what had just happened and you couldn’t contain the shock and horror in your own voice.

“What..did you say?”

You had a difficult time making friends when you first signed with SM. Somehow not everyone who had been with the company were as thrilled with the idea of signing a rock band as management was. You’d also doubted the company’s willingness to support and enable you and your band’s artistry, having done some research into their business model. After all, you were a far cry from a dainty, pretty female pop star.

However, you had your bandmates, who were your closest friends, and within a few months you’d managed to become close friends with Amber, who you thought was the coolest girl on the planet and looked up to for inspiration. And you’d made friends with Chanyeol who took an instant liking to your band’s music as he himself enjoyed rock music very much.

You hadn’t met all the members of his band, but he often brought with him out to dinner or to clubs and company events Baekhyun and Sehun. You very much enjoyed Baekhyun and Chanyeol’s company. Some days they made you laugh until you were on the floor crying, and some days they annoyed the crap out of you. It didn’t take long for them to feel like family.

Sehun was something different. You were intimidated by his presence when you first met. He was always very quiet, but when he did speak, although his words were soft-spoken, they had a harsh edge. He seemed too self-possessed. He never reacted in any way when you spoke. You don’t consider yourself outwardly funny, but you’ve seen Baekhyun and Chanyeol absolutely die laughing at something clumsy you said or did. Sehun never seemed to be amused by you at all. And above all, he had no interest in your band’s music. But this was okay with you, you didn’t need to be friends with everyone. Your focus was on your music.

It was awards show season and your band had just arrived at an afterparty hosted by W Magazine. You were very happy that your band’s stylists let you and your bandmates choose your own outfits for the afterparty. Although you are very in tune with the latest fashion and style, you weren’t too fond of the company’s need for gimicky stage outfits. You were glad for the opportunity to dress yourself for this event.

Your bandmates had chosen various pieces from the fitting like a stunning black 3-piece suit from YSL, your guitarist opted for a set of matching floral-patterned Gucci jacket and pants, and the others all looked just as handsome dressed up for this afterparty.

You chose a sheer black Dior gown with thin straps adorned with crystals and diamonds that hung from your shoulders. The material was see-through at your waist and below mid-thigh. The subtle ruffles of the black gown which flowed from a cinched waist made you look like a vampire princess.

The party was held at a large mansion on the outskirts of the city. The mansion had an imposing marble facade, with a beautiful open staircase leading up to the entrance. You and your bandmates fidgeted in your evening outfits, unfamiliar with the feeling of expensive designer material clad onto your bodies. You anxiously made your way up the entrance stairs to a pair of open glass doors and a marble foyer lit in a beautiful orange haze by crystal chandeliers which hung from the high ceilings of the entrance.

You could hear music playing, and loud voices sounding from the mansion ballroom which you and your bandmates were led to by a man in a black tuxedo.

“Y/N!�� Amber screamed as soon as you walked through the entrance to the ballroom. You were so shocked you couldn’t even respond. Amber ran up to you and gave you a hug. “You look amazing!” she yelled over the music.

Taking a quick glance around, the room was packed. You saw the rest of the f(x) girls hanging out next to a massive bay window with some other singers and dancers. The members of BTS seated at a large table to the right of the dance floor, the girls from Red Velvet talking with some members of EXO on the other side of the room. Many other artists and producers talking and dancing, scattered throughout the large room.

“Thank you. You look very sharp yourself. You are rocking this suit,” You smiled, as you admired how gorgeous your friend looked in a designer menswear suit. She dragged you towards the bar and you turned to wave timidly at your bandmates, who have now been surrounded by a group of girls.

“What do you want? I’ve been getting these rum punches all night.” Amber slurred the end of that sentence a little bit, which made you laugh. She was already drunk and it’s only 9PM. “That’s what you gotta do at these events man,” she said, waving her drink around, motioning to the rest of the room. “Otherwise I can’t deal with all these humans.” That gave you another genuine hearty laugh.

“You look freaking amazing.” You jumped a little when you felt a pair of hands on your waist. Turning quickly you saw Baekhyun’s stunned face. His eyes grew wide as he took in your full outfit. He took one of your hands and spun you around, making your gown spin out in a perfect flair.

“Yeah seriously you clean up gooood,” quipped Chanyeol who was standing next to him, raising his glass up for a sip, his Rolex gleaming as the light caught it.

“Thanks guys. You look very dapper as well.” You were being sincere. They both looked very good dressed up.

For a while, you were standing on your own at a raised table in the corner of the ballroom near the bar. Occasionally Baekhyun or Amber would come grab you and ask you to dance. You’d oblige for a little, and inevitably you returned to the corner on your own. You loved your friends, but you were intimidated by large formal gatherings like this, and you also didn’t mind just sitting back and people-watching.

However, it wasn’t long before almost everyone at this party became too drunk and rowdy for you to handle. And when Baekhyun stumbled up to you, screamed something completely incoherent in your ear before being dragged away by an apologetic Kyungsoo, you decided you needed to go find a quiet room to hang out in for the rest of the night until your bandmates were ready to leave.

You went up to the bartender and asked for a Jack Daniels. He smiled and nodded, reached for a glass from the shelf when you said, “just an empty glass and the bottle, please.” His eyes widened and was perplexed by your request. “I’m heading out soon,” you explained, slipping him a large bill. He grinned and handed you a newly opened bottle of Jack, along with a crystal lowball glass. You thanked him, took the glass and the bottle and headed towards the ballroom exit.

A breeze of cool air swept past your bare arms as you reached the hallway. You breathed in deep. Finally, some fresh air. You looked left and right at a long, marble hallway. Large windows embedded on the sides and you decided to start walking down the hall to your right. Maybe you could find a quiet room to hang out in.

Reaching the end of the hall, you found a pair of tall double doors made of dark oak. The doors were slightly cracked and you pushed one of the doors open, revealing an entire wall of shelves packed tightly with books. You entered the dark room. It wasn’t very big. But the ceilings remained as high as the rest of the mansion, with a large glass door occupying the width of the entire back wall which let to out a small stone balcony. And one entire wall a bookcase, housing endless volumes of novels. In the center of the room, a large sofa, low to the ground, made of a luxurious deep green velvet. You looked around for a light switch but there was none. However, the light from the moon streaming in through the large window lit the room well enough for you to see.

You made your way over to the sofa. You set down the glass on the table, opened the bottle, and poured yourself a half glass of whiskey. Sipping your drink, you made your way over to the books, your heals clicking gently against the marble floors. Your eyes focused in on a title and you reached out to touch it when a stream of orange light and a shadow formed over the darkness of the shelves.

You turned to see Sehun in the doorway. He was looking directly at you as he made his way into the room, closing the door behind him in a smooth, swift motion, saying nothing.

“Hi,” you said much more loudly than you wanted to, shocked and frozen mid-motion to grab a book from the shelf, unsure of what to do. You felt like a thief who was just caught in the act.

Sehun leaned his back against the closed doors, and put his hands in his pockets. He was wearing a white silk Louis Vuitton shirt under a sleek black jacket. Thin straps of a matching silk scarf hanging from his neck, untied. A pair of black slacks, a black leather belt matching his equally expensive black leather shoes.

“Drinking alone is one of the first signs of alcoholism,” he said, nodding towards the half finished glass in your hands and the bottle on the table behind you.

Is he trying to be funny? No, he wasn’t smiling. His face was stern, but also not entirely serious. His voice was light, but also even in tone. You couldn’t tell for the life of you if he was being serious, or being funny, or just trying to make conversation.

“But I’m not drinking alone,” you mustered up as sincere a smile as you could, trying to lighten the mood. You just wanted a quiet place to hang out by yourself. And now an unwelcome intruder has ruined that. “You’re here.” That last bit came out with the full force of sarcasm which you were trying desperately to hide.

The room isn’t well lit, but in the shadows you could make out the corners of his mouth turn up in a arrogant smirk. He scoffed and stood up straight, and slowly made his way over to you. He stopped next to you, close enough that you could feel the heat radiating off his body onto the bare skin of your arm. The air that followed brought the scent of his cologne to your nose; a subtle combination of pine and firewood which was actually quite pleasing, not overwhelming.

You looked up at his profile. I’ve never seen him this close, you thought. Has he gotten taller? You looked up at the lines of his jaw, angling up to his raven black hair, and noticed the small mole on his neck. His skin looked soft, a strange contrast against his technically strikingly beautiful features. It makes sense they call him the prince of SM. You were thinking but quickly averted your eyes as he turned to look down at you, noticing you noticing him. You raised your glass to your mouth and tried to occupy yourself with your drink. Why did I just do that. It’s not wrong to look at somebody it’s normal. I could’ve just apologized like a normal person, ugh, you thought to yourself.

He let out a soft chuckle as he noticed your cheeks become a flushed pink. “Jane Eyre?” he asked, turned back to the bookshelf.

“What?” You asked, almost choking on a way too big gulp of whiskey that you unintentionally inhaled when trying to act natural.

“You left a party and snuck away to the mansion’s library by yourself with a bottle of whiskey to read Jane Eyre in the dark?” he said, his voice now fully dripping with judgement.

You scoffed and rolled your eyes and turned away from him, walking towards the other end of the bookshelves towards the large doors without answering. You turned the cold metal handle, opening one of the doors, and stepped out onto the balcony, the cold fall wind immediately blowing your hair back and raising goosebumps on your arms. You were convinced whatever Sehun had to say, whatever he did, would only reaffirm your belief that he thought he was superior to anyone and everyone, and he made it known.

You found that room first, it was supposed to be your time to find peace and quiet from the drunken idiots in the ballroom. And yet his presence made you feel as though you were the one who was unwelcome. Prince Oh fucking Sehun, golden boy of SM, you rolled your eyes as you raised your glass to your lips, chugging down the rest of your drink in one large gulp.

You heard footsteps approach you on the balcony. Is he fucking serious? you groaned to yourself. “Look, I don’t want to be rude, but I was just looking for a place to-” you were cut off by the feeling of a warm jacket being placed over your shoulders. You looked up and to see Sehun draping his jacket over you, and felt the warm soft material caress your skin, the light scent of his cologne engulfing your body. He leaned forward onto the stone railing of the balcony, hands clasped together, and looked out to the mansion’s garden.

The moonlight peaking through a cloudy night sky illuminated his skin and for the first time, seemed to almost soften his features.

“Do you have a favorite Bronte sister?” he asked, continuing to gaze out into the garden.

You fell silent. What is he doing? “Um...well Jane Eyre is one of my favorite books. I recently bought Wuthering Heights but haven’t had a chance to start it yet, I really would like to read it....wait....” you turned and looked up at him, a confused and shocked look manifested itself on your face, and when he turned to look at you, expectantly waiting for you to finish your sentence, must’ve noticed because he broke into a soft laugh. “You...read?”

He laughed again, “is that so shocking?”

Yes.

“No! No, I didn’t mean that. I just meant, well I didn’t mean anything,” you stumbled through those words, blushing and embarrassed. “I didn’t know that about you, I guess.”

His face softened into a small smile at your response. Seeing his soft smile, a smile that didn’t originate from his lips, but a smile that came from his eyes, you felt for the first time that Sehun could have a gentle side. Have I misjudged him? you asked yourself. No...definitely not. You brushed off the thought.

Suddenly you heard the loud smash of glass breaking from the ballroom. You both turned and looked in that direction, trying to see what the commotion is.

“When I left they were playing power ballads and people were slow dancing,” Sehun sighed. “What could’ve gone off there..”

“It’s very strange that DJs always wait until everyone is super drunk to play music to slow dance to,” you added. “It doesn’t make very much sense.”

Sehun chuckled, “No it doesn’t make very much sense at all.” He turned back around to look at you. You quickly looked down at your hands on the marble railing of the balcony, avoiding his direct gaze. In your periphery you saw Sehun step back from you a little, but held out his hand to you, leaning down in a small bow. “Will you dance with me?” he asked, a noticeable smirk forming on his face.

“There’s no music.” You retorted, hoping this fact will deter him from continuing this charade of trying to befriend you or relate to you at all.

Instead, Sehun reached into the pocket of his jacket which draped from your shoulders as it was much too large on you, and pulled out his phone. You heard the click of his phone unlocking, and watched as he tapped the screen a few times. Then the sound of a familiar guitar riff came from its speakers as he set it down on the balcony railing, smiled, and reached his hand out to you again.

Slow dancing in a burning room was playing.

“Come on, dance with me,” he said, reaching out and grabbing your hand. He took your hands and slid them up around his neck, then grazing his fingers lazily down the sides of your waist, they laced together around your body and pulled you in close.

You let out a small but audible whimper at the shock of feeling his hands pressing against your lower back, feeling the warmth of his palms through the thin material of your gown.

You avoided looking up at him.

What is he doing.

What is happening.

You’d heard rumors here and there about the girls Sehun has been with, but no one really knew much. He kept a lot of it to himself, and Baekhyun had mentioned Sehun isn’t interested in girls and relationships.

Did he think he could try something with you?

“Sehun..”

“Yes?” He tilted his head down towards yours so he could see your face.

“Why did you come into the library?” you asked firmly.

“I followed you,” he answered simply.

You lifted your head up and looked directly in his eyes, shocked and confused by his response and hoping to see some indication in his expression that this was a joke. But the only emotion that showed itself on his face was amusement.

“I watched you come into the room,” he continued, that smirk appearing again on his face. “I saw your hilariously frustrated expression when Baekhyun tried to drag you onto the dance floor again. You looked so fed up. At that time, I wanted to approach you, but then you went up to the bartender and asked for an entire bottle of liquor. Then you left, and I was very intrigued so I followed. How could I live with myself if I saw you leave with an entire bottle of whiskey and didn’t at least make an attempt to save you from potential alcohol poisoning?” he chuckled to himself, amused.

What the hell? How does someone get “intrigued” by someone enough to just watch them? Is he joking? Does he think this is funny? Is he being serious?

“You never fail to amaze me,” he laughed lightly. “And then I find you alone in a dark library, drinking by yourself, getting ready to read a book while a party is going on.”

The song ended and you had decided what this was. None of this was funny. You were not nearly as amused by this as Sehun apparently is.

You pulled away from him and stepped back. “I have to leave,” you said. “And I’d like you to leave me alone. I don’t know what you think you’re doing, but this isn’t funny or amusing at all. We aren’t friends, and this isn’t a normal thing for strangers to do.”

You saw his brows furrow into a confused frown as you spoke. When you finished saying what you had to say, you turned to move towards the glass doors that led back into the library. But in that moment Sehun moved too. He walked swiftly towards you and grabbed your wrist before it hit the handle on the door. You whipped around, attempting to pull your wrist free of his grasp, but failed. His other hand grabbed your arm and pushed your back into the glass door. His lips crashed onto yours in an instant. You couldn’t think as he maneuvered his lips on yours, pushing your mouth open, one arm sliding around your waist to pull you closer, the other now grasping the handle on the door and using it as leverage to push your bodies even closer.

You found yourself unable to think, unable to move. “Sehun...I...I can’t breathe,” you gasped in between his movements.

“Then don’t.” he responded sternly as he grabbed your hands, which had formed small fists against his chest in a feeble attempt to push him away. He pinned your arms behind your back, and with one hand held them there and with the other he grabbed your jaw, pulling your face into his, making it impossible to move away from his lips.

You squeezed your eyes shut and tried to think, but your head was in too much of a haze. Every sense seemed to be heightened in this moment. You could feel the warmth and softness of his lips as they pressed roughly against yours over and over, his tongue occasionally grazing yours, making you whimper lightly each time it did. You could smell his cologne, completely encapsulating the air around you, making your mind even hazier, making it even more difficult to breathe. You felt as though your whole body was melting. Melting into him.

It was as though he knew this and felt it. Sehun let go of your arms, and as if it were pure instinct, you slid your hands up to his chest, to his neck and leaned into his kiss and let your mind slip further and further into the haze.

What am I doing?

[NEWS] EXO - 170728 Vogue magazine: “Is EXO the Most Stylish K-Pop Band of All Time?”

It is a 90-degree July day in Seoul, and the air is thick with unfallen rain. Still, the concrete steps leading up to the World Cup Stadium are swarming with boys and girls in black baseball jerseys armed with clear plastic ponchos and posters, paper boxes packed with sweet fried chicken and sour pickles. It is the sixth edition of SM Town Live, a summer concert series put on by SM Entertainment to showcase the company’s impressive roster of K-pop stars—icons such as BoA and Yunho of TVXQ, Girls’ Generation and Shinee. Yet the main event is without a doubt EXO, the reigning kings of K-pop, who are there to close one chapter of their career and kick off the next with a new album and look to match.

Calling them kings is controversial. It stirs up rival factions (the band’s new album is titled The War), and internationally, that designation is up for debate. But in Korea, the beating heart of K-pop fandom, the nine-member boy band remains at the top. Last year they won five daesangs (Korea’s biggest music award, roughly equivalent to album or artist of the year), one of which they had won for the fourth consecutive time. The band celebrated its five-year anniversary in April with a live video broadcast that drew 80,000 viewers in less than two minutes. The next month, they played two nights at Seoul’s Olympic Stadium; seating some 70,000, it is the country’s largest venue and only four K-pop groups, including EXO, have ever played there. Both shows sold out in under 30.

For years, their status has remained relatively unchallenged, but it is difficult for anyone at the top to stay there. EXO also struggles with the perception that they are too perfect, a manufactured pop act without much personality. Korean boy groups also have to deal with the country’s mandatory military enlistment policy, which effectively puts a two-year pause on their careers that is hard to bounce back from. It is one reason why this particular comeback is so crucial for EXO, and why they chose to dramatically change course. “Ko Ko Bop,” the lead single and sole video to be released from The War, is the aesthetic opposite of the band’s previous summer single, “Monster.” Musically, it combines EDM and reggae. It is a sun-soaked song with a distinct “tropical” vibe, and that sharp tonal shift is most clearly communicated through the clothes.

The starting point for the video’s style was The Talented Mr. Ripley, specifically the rich, disaffected Dickie Greenleaf, played by a young Jude Law, as he lazes about the Italian coast. “Ko Ko Bop” reimagines the eight singers (Lay, the group’s only remaining Chinese member, was unable to participate in this album due to his “schedule”) as younger, more fashion-forward versions of Dickie. Sehun wears a Saint Laurent Hawaiian shirt from Spring 2017, covered in retro pop surfboards and station wagons; his hair has been dyed and spiked to resemble a Bird of Paradise. Chanyeol has hair the color of tropical punch and has thrown a white Céline blouse with watercolor blooms over a Saint Laurent logo tee; Baekhyun appears in Valentino, a mustard ikat Etro blazer, and a red mullet. A matching pair of palm tree–dotted All Saints shirts make the rounds on almost all members, loosely swapped around to convey the shoot’s trippy, drug-fueled vacation vibe (a bit odd, considering Korea’s anti-drug culture). All said, it continues EXO’s tradition of slowly pushing the boundaries of K-pop men’s fashion.

The band began honing their singular take on style two years ago with the song, “Call Me Baby.” Before that, they were generally clothed in matching suits or tees plucked off the racks of Boon the Shop and other local boutiques, a one-size-fits-all solution that emphasized their uniformity. In 2015, however, they found a way to bring out each member’s personality by tailoring what they wore in each shoot. More importantly, they began to source designers that K-pop stars were not wearing at the time. Back then, when singers wore high-end fashion, they generally went with big name, easily shoppable brands—Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton. EXO reached instead for labels fashion people love: Pieces by Raf Simons, Dries Van Noten, archival Helmut Lang. These were mixed with Korean designers, including custom suits from Heich Es Heich, and eventually, a few items from their personal collections—a surprising move. K-pop bands, EXO included, are known for casting off and slipping on new identities with each album. To let a bit of their personal taste shine through, no matter how small, felt like a change.

It is a sartorial mix that has influenced the rest of the industry and reflects the country’s growing emphasis on individual style, which took centerstage on their Exo’rdium world tour, where the above photos were shot. Below, they reflect on the band’s evolution and their own. Kai prefers simple pieces from A.P.C.; D.O., all-black workwear from American heritage brands. Chanyeol is passionate about streetwear—Vetements, Balenciaga, Supreme, Gosha—and he recently confessed to keeping the tags on his clothes for a month, unable to tear them off. Moments like this are thrilling; they feel intimate and authentic, a real flash of expression through fashion. There’s no better way to begin again.

Sehun

Whose style has changed the most? Kyungsoo [D.O.]. Just look on the Internet—you'll see. Which MV had your favorite look? “Monster.” The music, concept, everything really, really fit me well. Who is your style icon at the moment? I'm really interested in Chris Brown’s fashion.

Kai

Whose style has changed the most? I think we’ve all changed a lot. In my case, since I personally love clothes, I think my personal style has changed to match my age, as time goes on. Which MV had your favorite look? I loved what we wore back in “Call Me Baby.”

Chanyeol

Whose style has changed the most? Sehun. Compared to his style from before we debuted and our early days, it's gotten a lot better, and every day, he puts a lot of thought in it. So much as doing fashion research, and his sense is good, too. Which MV had your favorite look? I think what we wore in “Lotto” was really nice. Who is your style icon at the moment? Kanye West.

D.O.

Whose style has changed the most? Overall, I think everyone’s personal taste has changed. Our members have gotten cooler, bit by bit. Who is your style icon at the moment? The heroes from the Avengers? I guess I want to try that once (laughs).

Xiumin

Whose style has changed the most? D.O. Every day, he goes around in head-to-toe black, but now, he’s moved away from wearing only black—slightly. Which MV had your favorite look? I liked “Lotto” the most. Who is your style icon at the moment? Captain America (laughs).

Baekhyun

Whose style has changed the most? I think it’s me. Because I want to challenge myself by trying different styles. It’s not that I plan to, but I think I do change things up a bit each year. Which MV or performance had your favorite look? I liked what we wore to perform at Mama 2016 [awards show] and to shoot “Lotto.” Who is your style icon at the moment? Because I really like Chris Brown, I want to try his look—he mixes different cuts and fits, and they all look good. I want to be like that.

Suho

Whose style has changed the most? Kyungsoo’s [D.O.] style has changed me a bit. Usually, I don't wear all black clothes like he does. I pay a lot of attention to fashion, and I like to play around with a lot of different brands, shoes, and clothes. But our schedules have gotten so hectic, and I realized that when I don’t have time to sleep, I just reach for simple, comfy, black things (laughs). Which MV had your favorite look? In our “Monster” video, the military-inspired style. It looked a bit more manly, it was comfortable, and the clothes were a bit oversize, which made them easy to dance in. It looked cool. Who is your style icon at the moment? I loved Colin Firth’s look in Kingsman. Once I get a little older, I want to walk around with that kind of clean, gentlemanly style.

Chen

Whose style has changed the most? I think we’re all pretty consistent now. Since we have each found our own personal style and know what we like, I think it’s natural. Which MV had your favorite look? The clothes from “Call Me Baby.” There were so many fun ones. Who is your style icon at the moment? Let’s see . . . I think I don’t know yet. I’ll have to widen my circle!
