The music video for EXO's "Love Shot" has attained an impressive milestone, which earned the Korean-Chinese boy group a new title.

EXO's "Love Shot" MV Exceeds One Million Comments on YouTube

On Dec. 13, 2018, SM Entertainment's boy band EXO dropped "Love Shot" as the repackaged version of their fifth studio album "Don't Mess Up My Tempo." The repackaged album contains the title track of the same name and the song's music video was released on the same day.

"Love Shot" is a song wishing to rediscover the meaning of true love, a sentiment that appears to be fading away from a dreary world, and desiring to be together with someone. EXO members Chen and Chanyeol participated in writing the track's lyrics.

On Feb. 23, World Music Awards took to its official SNS accounts to share some great news.

Although the music video for the debut song "Mmmh" of EXO member Kai has also obtained one million comments on YouTube, this is considered as an achievement of an SM solo artist. And so, this makes the "Love Shot" MV the fifth music video overall by an SM artist to reach the milestone.
