The pink lakes are real & can be found in Australia. Lay went to Australia to shoot the MV. Yes... The MV visuals are related to storyline. The theory is that Lay has been searching & finally found his power orb. (Lay has the power of Healing in the EXO storyline)
king of china
Yes.. Watching/React his dance practice is must... People need to accept that this guy is very near to the position of the top three dancers in k-pop world...but he most recognize in CPOP world..
"Namanana" is the title track on Lay's first English album which was released in 2018, and it is his American debut as he makes his crossover into the U.S. music industry. Every Mandarin song on this album has an all English version, and like everything that Zhang Yixing (Lay) does, it was all wrote, composed, and produced by him, including the English lyrics. Yes, I am sure he had consultants who helped him find the right words in English, but if you know him, you know that he is a perfectionist and there is almost nothing that he is involved in that he doesn't have 100% control of himself. When it comes to Lay's solo work he does it all. Before "Lit", "Namanana" was one of the most expensive Chinese produced MVs at the time, costing around $1 million to make. However, Lay broke his record with the release of "Lit." Because Lay was not allowed to promote in Korea at that time due some issues between the Chinese and Korean government, SM Entertaiment found a way to promote him as part of EXO's storyline by partnering with him to release English songs and to tie his MVs in with EXO's story. Everything EXO does, including several of Lay's solo releases -- such as "Sheep," "Namanana" and "Honey" -- all tie into the fact that he is a member of EXO. It's SM's way of making sure that even though he might not be able to work with the members, that they show fans that his storyline and presence as part of EXO is still really important to Lay and SM. The lyrics of the song actually make a lot of sense if you know the story behind the song and if you follow EXO's storyline. So, with that in mind, "Olay" is a war cry that is supposed to show how powerful he is and that he is in control. He is saying that the negative comments and haters can't change the narrative of his story or make him doubt the path he is on in life. It is also a metaphor for the narrative within EXO's storyline and what he has had to go through as Lay the EXO alien. As a character within EXO's story, Lay is currently trying to figure out how to put a stop to the evil and destruction that the Red Force is causing. So he is also speaking to the Red Force saying, you won't be able to defeat us. I won't let you stop us from accomplishing our goals, etc. Also, fun fact: The pink lake you see in the MV is a real pink salt lake -- the minerals in this lake actually make the water look pink -- and they are dancing on a sandbar in the middle of the lake. The MV was filmed in Australia. According to Lay, Namanana is a nonsensical word that is meant to be used like Hakuna Matata from the Lion King. However, to understand the story in the MV you have to remember that Lay is a member of EXO. So many fan theories believe that the "Namanana" MV is another piece of EXO's storyline and it establishes Lay's connection to EXO's story. In EXO's "Power" MV it is thought that EXO are on Exo Planet and, before their "Obsession" MV came out, we all thought EXO was trying to get their powers back from the Red Force.The original theory was that the robot we see in "Power", which is being controlled by the Red Force, stole EXO's powers and the members had to fight to get their powers back. However, Lay is the only member who is missing in "Power" -- that MV was during the start of when he was no longer able to work with EXO. So, because Lay was unable to participate in "Power," as part of EXO's storyline, he was unable to collect his power orb. Originally, fan theories thought that the other EXO members must have retrieved his power orb for him and they sent him his power orb in the mail. As you saw in "Namanana," it looks as though Lay receives a package, and when he opens the box it looks like he finds his power orb inside. Also in "Namanana" you see things like a pyramid, which is thought to be a message sent to Lay from Kai. Kai's power is the ability to teleport and his symbol is a pyramid. We think Kai is sending Lay a message to let him know that he is searching for him and he is coming to take him back and reunite him with the other EXO members. EXO needs Lay to use his power of healing to help defeat the Red Force and to heal everything that is going wrong. The group needs to find the two halves of the Tree of Life and reunite them to restore peace in the world, and Lay is the member who could heal and fix things as EXO struggles to take down the Red Force. Kai means opening, as in door or gateway, so as the center of the group, Kim JongIn (Kai) is supposed to be the one that connects all the members together. And the golden eye symbol you see in this MV is the exact same eye statue we see on the desk in Lay's Grand Line 2 concert teaser videos, which also could be connected to the eyes we see throughout SM's groups' MVs, such as the eye from Kai's "Mmmh" MV and aespa's "Savage" MV, as well as the dragon's eye in Lay's "Lit" MV. One theory is that the eye, even though it looks different in each adaptation, it could represent something to do with how the Red Force is able to spy on people in order to control or manipulate them. (i.e. how big brother government is always watching, etc.) You also see Lay get woken up by a thunderstorm. The thunderstorm is thought to possibly be a message sent by Chen. Chen and Lay are members of EXO-M, and Chen's superpower is the ability to control thunder and lightning. So it is thought that Chen is also sending Lay some sort of message. And at one point, you see how it looks like it all of a sudden turns from day to night. It doesn't just go dark, but it looks like something might be blocking the sun, which is thought to be caused by an eclipse. EXO's powers are controlled by the eclipse. The eclipse is where EXO summons their abilities from and that's why the majority of the stories in their MVs revolve around an eclipse of some kind or something to do with the sun and moon. And that's why a few of their comebacks and MV releases have been on days when we have had a real eclipse, or some sort of real planetary phenomenon, etc. This story also could be connected to EXO's "El Dorado" storyline. Some people point to the fact that in the lyrics of "EL Dorado," one of the lines in the song is "Got to sail, sail sail ... got to find find find ... El Dorado." And like Peter Pan, with a little magic and superpowers, the ship is sailing in the air in "Namanana." So this could have something to do with EXO sailing the world in search of the Tree of Life, etc. Sehun has the power to control wind, so it could be him using his power to make the ship levitate and sail through the sky, etc. And D.O. has the power of earth or dirt which gives him super strength/force, so when you see those rocks levitating or being blown up in the "Namanana" MV, this could be D.O using his power as he tries to send Lay a message as well. We are still not sure what the "flying atom" is, but we know for sure that it has something to do with EXOs storyline, and it will probably eventually become clearer as SM releases more of EXO's story in the future. We just have to wait and see. Everything that any of the members of EXO are involved in is connected to their storyline, even down to the most minute of details. Therefore, nothing is ever random or done without a specific reason. Unfortunately, to make it even more difficult to understand, each part of the story is not necessarily in chronological order, so we as EXO-Ls have to become detectives and analyze every aspect of all of their teasers, MVs, song lyrics, albums, concert VCRs, choreography and even live performances and piece it all together to understand the story behind it all. If you like Lay's dancing, you really need to check out his dance practice video for "Namanana." There's a reason why he is one of China's top dancers and a main dancer in EXO.
Lay wrote the english version of this song and the whole album even tho he’s not fluent but he learned it just to communicate with his international fans🥹🤍
LAY ALWAYS MAKE US PROUDDDDD
I love Lay mv it jus like you are watch movie i mis our healing 🦄
Please check out Lay's "Honey" next time😊
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oooh yess i bet you'll love Lay's Honey mv
Song: english Genre: Korea Singer: China Thx my King Lay Zhang 🥰🥰
According with Yixing (Lay) he was inspired by The Lion King to create namanana... The !V follows a storyline (Yixing's MV storyline is a bit complex for me to explain bcuz he has influence from Chinese mythology), but we can say that Namanana is connected to Lit and Flying Apasaras, in this MV the Lit dragon is introduced to us Btw the pink lake is real, it's in Australia. Lay filmed the MV there. There's a dance practice from Namanana, but originally is posted on Weibo, but someone uploaded here on YT. Also there's a remix version from this song and Lay changed the choreography a little bit. Namanana album was released in Chinese and English language if you want to give it a chance and maybe react to it or just listen to it on your own, I highly recommend it... It's an amazing album
Yes the dragon is still in a conceptual form in this MV 😄
lay the CEO, he has his own company ,he really is an asset of the Chinese state😎
It's on my top 3 Lay works! Definitely a masterpiece
The lyrics of this song is so powerful! Especially the line “ the haters keep hating, but I keep on climbing” Also the line ” I’m hot like wasabi” hahaha iconic!
He absolutely got those kind of songs, those hot as hell! Hhh, yeah the dance practice of this song os so strong so please check it out
You have to react to Lay "Flying Apsaras" mv and dance practice. Thank you.
Actually he's so cute ^^
The pink lake is real..He went to Australia to film this mv..Also Lay doesnt like using green screen for his mv😎 Also NAMANANA was his 1st album release in the US..So officially NAMANANA is in eng ver but it also has chinese ver.
Lay's MVs never disappoints.. always extraordinary 👌
This album is filled with Lays sound and I love it because it's uniquely amazing 💯✨💖
I need a Lay Kai performance urgently!
You definitely should react to Lay's dance practices he's an amazing dancer
Okay so the namanana mv, many exols have connected it to Exo's power mv with the power orb he opened in the box saying its baekhyun's light power orb since it was missing in the Exo power mv for majority of the mv. But Lay is making another project with all the stuff he's been releasing lately for his concert is tied to this pirate Namanana theme.
The pink water is real, this place is Pink Lake in Australia (idk which one, cause Australia heve more than one Pink lake).
NAMANANA is connected to EXO POWER based on storyline.
LAY IS PERFECTTT!!
The lyrics of his mvs and songs are sooo powerful and inspiring 💛💛💛💛
My fave LAY song 💕
Namanana mv is so close to tarot consept (even the physical album). And that sea is real he record it in Australia pink lake. You should whatch dance practice or a live stage you can never find Lay more happier than dancing on Namanana remix😍. This album was before Lit, and yes after lit his musics changed to historical instruments and story and powerful beats that i love

We’ll be waiting for the dance practice reaction and your dance cover. The choreo is really fun.
Thank you so much for this reaction. I hope you can react to Lay's Grand line 2 concert presentations. He uploaded on his channel.
No, that is pink lake in Australia. Mexico has pink lake as well.
thank you for the reaction
The pink lake is real
Yixing has said that namanana is inspired by the hakuna matata song in the lion king movie, so it's like a happy word that doesn't make sense HAJAS also, the music video is based on Paulo Coelho's book "the alchemist", which is a novel that tells the story of a young shepherd who one day embarks on a journey through the desert sands in search of a treasure
Honestly, idk if the Paulo Coelho's thing is true but i read somewhere and it made sense to me since Yixing enjoys reading a lot, and that's the kind of novel that would inspire him bc the treasure is something more personal, not gold or diamonds itself so i like to think that way lol
that is the pink lake but i dont know where you can find it
The remix is so good too, go listen on your own
Aaron, you look a lot like Dylan Minnette and Macaulay Culkin, both. I am a new subscriber, btw :)
You should definitely check out the dance practice! I’m sure you’ll love it
