K-pop acts use dance challenges to promote their new releases, while fans see it as another opportunity for idols to interact with each other. Recently, EXO-Ls (EXO fans) cheered when they saw who Kai did his dance challenge with.

EXO (엑소) member Kai (카이) recently dropped his new single “Wait On Me” from his mini album of the same title. As such, the idol has been posting many dance challenges on social media, some with other K-pop stars like fromis9 and MEOVV. However, it was his dance challenge posted on 13th May 2025 (Tuesday) that garnered the most attention because it featured fellow EXO member Lay Zhang (张艺兴/레이).

While it shouldn’t be a surprise that Kai and Lay could collaborate for a video, given they’re both EXO members, it’s worth noting that the latter hasn’t been active in the group in a long time. Lay hasn’t joined many of EXO’s group activities since 2021 to focus on his solo career in China. It has also been years since Kai and Lay were seen together, with some fans saying it’s been six years since their last public interaction.

The video has gained over 3 million views on Instagram and over 2.5 million views on TikTok in less than 24 hours. Most comments were ecstatic over seeing Kai and Lay reunite for a dance challenge, with some saying they still can’t believe the video is real. Others noted that it’s been a long time since Lay was seen with an EXO member, quipping that the clip is monumental for EXO fans who have been waiting for a group reunion.

The video also sparked discussion of the group making a comeback later this year. Since EXO’s youngest member, Sehun, will be discharged from his military service in September, some fans speculate that the K-pop group could be reuniting for a new release by the end of 2025. Some fans also hope EXO will go back on tour soon, as their last group tour was in 2019.

In the meantime, Kai will embark on his solo tour this month, with a performance in Kuala Lumpur on 24th May 2025 (Saturday). Here’s to hoping that the EXO group comeback will be a reality!
