These Photos Prove That EXO Lay Is More Talented Than You Realize

EXO is a group known for their striking visuals, vocals and dance ability, but one member is a rising international star who takes things to an entirely new level.

Many of the multi-talented members of EXO are renowned for their ability to dance, but Lay in particular has had some of the most exciting performances out of the nine-member group. Known for stretching the confines of dancing most idols stay within, Lay has experimented with and explored multiple mediums and environments in which to practice his art. Check out some of his steamiest and most powerful work:
