Kai has opened up before about how he used to feel uncomfortable in variety shows in the past. As he branched out into his solo career, he began taking part in more shows as a way to change that, as well as to be able to show more of his true self to EXO-Ls. His win at the Blue Dragon Series Awards proves that he not only reached his goal, but that he’s actually a total variety show king!
