"Popcorn" Review

All I can say (and this is no secret at all) is that Kyung Soo is my favorite Exo member. He has the voice that I love the most in the group and I love how he is also such a great actor, so I might sound a little bit biased when I say that I liked "Popcorn" a lot; I found it very bright and charming, but there is something that is driving me crazy about this song as if I'm rambling a bit but I swear that if you change the beginning of the song and put a piano and some bells instead and also change the mentions of spring to winter or Christmas this song is an absolute Christmas song (the chorus doesn't sound Christmassy, though). You might be wondering, "What even is she talking about?" and my point is that I... -ahem- WE need a new Exo Christmas album because Kyung Soo's voice was made for winter songs (actually, he sounds great in every song).

The MV is really adorable, I found myself smiling a lot while I was watching it, the only problem I found is that it left me craving some popcorn.
