Editor's note

KAI from EXO, solo and in motion

The EXO member's solo work moves between sleek R&B, confessional pop, and sharp choreography.

For the sleek side, 'Mmmh' is the move. If you want the softer, more reflective tone, put on 'Peaches'.

KAI's solo material carves out a distinct space from his EXO work, built on fluid dance and vocal intimacy. Songs like 'Mmmh' and 'Peaches' showcase that R&B-inflected groove, while 'Confession' leans into more personal territory. The videos and photos underline how visual performance is part of the package.

He debuted with EXO in 2012. His solo releases began in 2020 with the EP 'KAI (开)', followed by 'Peaches' in 2021. The tracklist suggests a shift from sleek, dance-focused singles toward slightly more introspective songs like 'To Be Honest'.

Background notes

Archive material and source history

KAI, born Kim Jong-in in 1994, joined the K-pop group EXO in 2012. He studied dance at Seoul Arts High School before his debut. In November 2020, he released his first solo album, 'KAI (开)', with the title track 'Mmmh'.

That song, along with others like 'Ride Or Die' and 'To Be Honest', showed a different side of his work. His solo material tends toward R&B and pop, with choreography that plays to his dance background.

He remains part of EXO, where he's listed as a main dancer and vocalist. The group includes members like Suho, Baekhyun, and Chanyeol, though KAI's solo output has developed its own following since 2020.
