Editor's note

Chen from EXO, a voice for quiet moments

The EXO member's solo work leans into ballads and gentle pop, often in Korean.

For a quick sense of his style, try 'Hold You Tight' or 'Good Night'. They're straightforward, gentle, and typical of his solo output.

Chen's solo songs like 'You Never Know' and 'Love Words' offer a softer, more intimate counterpoint to EXO's high-energy group tracks. He's built a catalog of 28 songs that feel personal, with Korean versions like 'Years' showing his range. The media clues, photos and videos on his page, suggest he's focused on emotional delivery, not just spectacle.

He started as a main vocalist in EXO, then moved into solo ballads and pop tracks. Songs like 'Reminisce (그렇게 살아가면 돼요)' and 'Sorry Not Sorry' hint at a shift toward reflective, often Korean-language material.

Archive material and source history

Chen, born Kim Jong-dae, is a vocalist in the K-pop group EXO. He started releasing solo music in 2019 with the EP 'April, and a Flower,' which included the ballad 'Beautiful Goodbye.' The following year he put out another EP called 'Dear My Dear.'

His solo work includes songs like 'Photograph' and 'Sorry Not Sorry,' which show his range as a singer. He also collaborated with Punch on 'Everytime,' a track from his first EP that deals with the feelings after a relationship ends.

In 2020, Chen announced he was getting married and that his first child was on the way. This led to some discussion among EXO fans and he took a break from group activities for a while. He's one of nine members in EXO, alongside Xiumin, Suho, Lay, Baekhyun, Chanyeol, D.O., Kai, and Sehun.
