A Contestant Sang EXO’s Song In Front Of Kris, His Reaction Is Priceless
Former EXO member Kris Wu experienced a blast from his K-Pop past, and EXO-Ls are loving it.
It all happened on The Next Top Bang, a new Chinese singing show similar to Idol Producer and Produce 101 China. The show kicked off its premiere with a total of 108 contestants, both male and female, who will train under celebrity mentors.
Kris and f(x)‘s Victoria are both mentors for the women’s team, along with Bibi Zhou Bichang. The men’s team features William Chan, Hu Haiquan and G.E.M. as mentors.
For her evaluation stage, one female contestant decided to do what many would not dare to do. She sang EXO’s “Overdose” in front of Kris.
“Overdose” is the mega-popular title track for Overdose, the 3rd and last EP Kris recorded with EXO before filing a lawsuit against SM Entertainment to nullify his contract.
As soon as the contestant began to sing, Kris failed to keep a straight face.
He looked uneasy, to say the least…
…and it probably didn’t help that Victoria was smiling in his direction!
The contestant nailed the cover with her smooth vocals and charismatic stage presence…
…but judging from Kris’s expressions…
…he may have preferred a different song choice!
Netizens are now calling the competitor “brave” for taking such a huge risk by performing an EXO song in front of this former member.
