The video was released later, in the middle of January. Both the hyung line confessed that it was their first time playing since their debut. While they were playing, Suho and Xiumin showed off their skill and teamwork. Check them out in this video with English subs, below!
Photoshoots At The Same Time
In March, 2019, both Suho and Xiumin both did a magazine photoshoot and interview individually. Even though they were solo pictorials, the hyung line never left their members out. Xiumin posed for Harper’s Bazaar, which might be his last photoshoot before he enlisted. According to Allkpop, in his interview, Xiumin said that it gives him strength whenever he thinks about the people around him and the fans who cherish him. He said that because he finds the need to always improve, he has no choice but to work hard. He revealed that the members, who he is closest with, and the managers have influenced him the most. Even though it may be part of their work, he says that it wouldn’t be possible without the love for one another. “When I see that side of us, I feel grateful for that and it makes me think that I should do better,” he added.

On the other hand, Suho did a photoshoot for Grazia Korea. According to Soompi, in his interview, Suho stated clearly that the core of his life is EXO. He went on, saying that even though he was doing some musicals and movies, as he has ambition for acting, he cannot change the fact that he is an EXO member. He thought that it was due to his role as EXO’s Suho that he gets chances to get invited to overseas fashion events or that people recognize him. “That’s why I can’t help but have EXO at the center of my life,” he added.
