Sehun is often referred to as the band’s “golden maknae,” often surprising his bandmates with his mature side.

Equipped with charisma and unrivaled stage presence, the 24-year-old is also nicknamed “maknae on top” for taking a leader-like role despite being the group’s youngest.

EXO is lucky to have Sehun on board.
