Kim Jong Dae (김종대) or his name stage is Chen (첸) is Chinese-South Korean boybandEXO-M, EXO Chinese subgroup but he nationality is Korean. Chen had Chinese name, his Chinese name is Jin Zhong Da. He was cast into S.M. Entertainment through the S.M. Casting System in 2011. On December 29, 2011 Chen become fourth person was formally introduced as a EXO-M member.

n December 29, 2012 along with Luhan, Tao, and Exo-K's Kai, Chen made his first televised performance on SBS's Gayo Daejun event. He can singing with high note because he had a powerful voice. Chen shares room with Lay in Korea and he shares room with Kris in China. He had ideal type of woman is like a noona, those that would take care of him. He had personality that give an impression of gentleness.

Chen was the fourth member introduced during the SBS Gayo Daejun way back on December 31, 2011. Chen, unlike the other members, wasn’t first showcased through a teaser dancing (thankfully). Instead, fans got their first taste through an awesome vocal performance in the SM Orchestra section, as he easily belted out Queen’s “It’s a Hard Life” in Korean. SM also granted fans a fewofficial teaser photos.

His first nickname, Cheng Zi, is meant to be a pun on his name Chen -- as it sounds similar to how people say the first syllable in Cheng Zi or Orange. His second nickname, 倩倩 (Qian Qian) comes from the way he pronounces his name as Qian -- Kris has also called him this during the Yinyuetai Interview. A quick trivia, is that interestingly enough, 倩倩 is the name of a very ~beautiful~ female ghost from a well known Chinese romance ghost story titled 倩女幽魂. Chen's skinny pig nickname came out in the (really) recent Ceci issue, where he said that he eats a lot but has trouble gaining weight. Heloses weight easily but can't gain weight, thus Skinny Pig. Another nickname of Chen is dancing machine (or more accurately, dansheen masheen), which came from a fan -- this fan called him this during afansign. Despite his relatively questionable dance skills, Chen decided to adopt this name for himself -- even labelling himself as Dancing Machine in the Ifeng interview. His bandmates caught on though, and he paid dearly.

As much as we’d like to check, we only have Chen’s word and the few profiles to go on for this information. However, using external data, we’ve been able to provide data to prove his height. For his family, we have a classic Chen quote. One of Chen’s most memorable and adorable moments was when he decided to introduce himself and the rest of his family during SM Town Taiwan in Mandarin. Just like a little kid, that adorable little orange.
