Luhan Is Out Of EXO!

Hey guys!

So recently, maybe one or two days ago, yet another member from K-Pop boy band EXO is out. He is none other than our beloved main vocalist... Luhan.

I was enjoying my day until I received a text from a whatsapp group chat, it simply said "OMG, LuHan is out of EXO!" Followed by a picture of a post about Luhan on WeiBo. I always told myself that you can't have HunHan without Luhan, so my biases are obviously Sehun and Luhan. Well, now ships like XiuHan, HunHan and LuTao can't be possible to sail because Luhan isn't here.

I know it was his choice to leave EXO, but I can't help but feel sad. He was the main vocalist in EXO, he has this unique and special voice that makes me listen to it over and over again without getting sick of it. Whenever I listen to EXO songs, I'd always sing along. But when Luhan's part comes, I would stay silent and listen to him.

My favorite song from EXO is Into Your World (Angel), the song that only has vocalists. I listen to it literally everyday; before I reach school and when I wake up in the morning.  The song is very touching especially a specific line: "every time you suffer and are wronged, I will wipe your tears away."

Laughter, Peace & Joy,
