Real name Kim Jongin. Born on 14/01/1994. Height 183cm. He was from 2007 SM 10th Youth Best Competition, being good at dancing. Taemin also received the popularity award in the same competition. His training period was the second longest after leader Suho. Despite being born in the same year as Taemin (reporter’s mistake?), he has a mature appearance and powerful stage performance, and the fact that his having sexy appeal makes nunas in their 20s and 30s and even ahjummas want to call Kai “oppa”. However, Kai belongs to the maknae-line in EXO-K.
Kai’s extraordinary dancing ability has earned him the nickname “dancing machine”. Kai’s another nickname is “teaser rich”. He was the first member to have his teaser revealed and is the member with the most number of teasers during the 100-day-teaser period. He has 8 individual teasers and 4 shared teasers with other members. Among total of 23 teasers, he appeared in 12 of them, having more than 50% of the appearance rate. He earned the nickname “teaser rich” because of this.
At first when the company gave him the stage name “Kai”, he couldn’t get used to it and even didn’t know people was calling him when they call “Kai”. Kai likes comics, especially “Top Blade”. He likes the character Kaila, which sounds similar to his stage name, so it’s really good to have this name. Kai smiled liked a kid while talking about this. Although we tend to forget, we cannot deny the fact that he was born in 1994. Please throw away the thought of a 19-year-old oppa-looking boy cannot be interested in comics.
