In an online community forum, K-pop fans especially complimented EXO and their golden vocals through a viral post written on the 19th.

The OP exclaimed:

"I think I know why EXO's main vocalists are famous. All three of them sang so f***ing casually, but it sounds like the recording. No, they sounded better than the recording.

Baekhyun, D.O.Chen... You guys are so good.
It's so nice to see you doing your main job, LOL. I think they should give us a recording every day. I'm so proud of them."

The viral post has now about 65k views and 212 upvotes. In the comments section, fans left favorable comments, praising the EXO members.

  • "My EXO pride just went up... as expected, singers must be good at their job."
  • "How are Byun Baekhyun, Kim Jongdae (Chen), and Doh Kyungsoo (D.O.) in the same group?"
  • "Please post a lot of recording behind-the-scenes stories videos... They are so good."
  • "I just listened to it and it was good because it didn't get edited."
  • "Oh! You went to the Talk Line! I don't really understand EXO because I think it's a skill that no one can say anything about as a vocalist, but I'm so happy that EXO's writing is on the line with good content!"
  • "EXO's main vocalists are always proven, and there's nothing to say "
  • "EXO is the best!"
  • "I thought I wrote this. I was surprised to see EXO's 'Cream Soda' a while ago, but the vocal line itself is the best among male idols."
  • "I'm a fan of the other group, but when I see videos (of EXO), I can say that they dance and sing well."

Indeed, EXO eats CDs for breakfast!

EXO D.O. Shines in 'Cream Soda' Recording Clip

While all members, especially the vocal line of EXO, were hugely praised, there is someone who stood out upon watching the clip. Based on fans' comments, the member who shone the brightest was D.O.!

In the video, the idol recorded his part easily and hit the high notes as if he wasn't even trying — highlighting the fact that he was sitting throughout the recording!

And yet, his voice was so powerful and his riffs and runs were so smooth it melted the listeners' ears and hearts.

Of course, commenters raved over the idol-actor.

  • "Doh Kyungsoo surprised me the most... He is f***ing so good."
  • "Doh Kyungsoo keeps on slaying."
  • "Hurry up and come get your solo album. How far have you come? Although EXO-L is good at waiting...After a week of activities for 'Cream Soda', they released the album late, they didn't do any public publicity or promo, they didn't comment, and I almost lost my mind because of the lack of a music video.
  • It was the hardest ever In many ways. I wish D,O, could release a solo album soon...Why are you spoiling your talent...If you don't let Kyungsoo go on music shows again, I'll throw you [SM Entertainment] a protest truck."
