EXO members Kai and Sehun have formed a new unit. According to Newsen’s report today (the 2nd), Kai and Sehun will officially debut as a unit in December. Kai and Sehun are the same age, born in 1994, within the group, and are a duo that is affectionately called “94z” among fans and is drawing hot popularity. The two, whose strengths are their attractive visuals, outstanding physiques, and powerful performances, are joining forces as a unit, and expectations are rising for what kind of synergy they will show. Their compatibility has already been proven. Prior to this, Sehun made a surprise guest appearance at Kai’s solo concert held last year and performed a collaboration stage. Then in January, Kai appeared in the vacation special spin-off of the web variety show “Transfer Student,” which he hosted as MC, and showed perfect chemistry. In addition, the two are also scheduled to appear in ENA TEO’s variety show “Earth Marble World Travel 4.” Kai and Sehun plan to communicate with fans not only through music and the stage, but also through various variety shows and content. EXO, to which the two belong, marked its 14th debut anniversary this year and released its 8th full album, “REVERXE,” in January. With this new release, the group achieved its 8th million-seller in total, and also recorded good results such as taking first place on domestic and overseas album and music charts, as well as a grand slam of five crowns on music shows. • EXO’s Kai keeps a promise and is moved!
