Former EXO member, Luhan, recently surprised fans by playing the group’s iconic song, “The First Snow,” during a live broadcast on Douyin. This heartwarming moment occurred as the first snow fell in Beijing, China, prompting Luhan to reminisce about his time with EXO. He even playfully acknowledged his former agency, SM Entertainment, saying, “I don’t care about SM anymore anyway, Lee Sooman is gone. I’ll play it since it’s snowing in Beijing too.”
Luhan’s decision to play the song resonated with fans worldwide, many of whom took to social media to express their nostalgia and appreciation. The song, originally released on EXO’s 2013 album Miracles in December, has become a seasonal favorite, often climbing the music charts with the arrival of the first snowfall each year. This year was no different, with “The First Snow” reclaiming its spot at the top of the charts in South Korea.
Fans Share Their Memories
Luhan’s gesture sparked a wave of nostalgia among EXO fans, who fondly recalled the group’s performance of “The First Snow” during their early years. One fan on X (formerly Twitter) shared, “My favorite OT11 flavor. I remember when I first watched EXO Showtime. Time flies so fast.” Another fan commented on Luhan’s choice to play EXO-K’s version of the song, highlighting the memories it evoked.
This touching moment serves as a reminder of the lasting impact EXO has had on its members and fans, even years after some members have departed the group. As one fan aptly put it, “Even though they are not together anymore, the memories of their togetherness will continue to exist.”
