About Do Kyung Soo
He only knows how to work silently at the back, never ever mentions that he’s exhausted because he knows that actions speak louder than words. He works as an idol and lives under the spotlights, he shows a good example to the teenagers and shows positivity to the public. It’s not frightening that someone is better than you, it’s only frightening when there’s someone who’s better than and at the same time works harder than you.
On 2013 MAMA, because he wore shoes with wrong shoe size, he injured his right ankle when he jumped down from the table. His performance was as perfect as usual. Even though he was injured, he kept on performing for the whole 14 mins. Along with the applause and cheering, he limped up leaving the stage. When EXO was announced as the Dae Sang winner, the members was giving their speech on the stage, he was receiving treatment at the hospital.
Second day at the airport, he was worried that the fans might be worried for him, even though he was holding crutches in hands, he smiled so sweetly like nothing happened while waving to the fans.
On EXO’s Showtime Press Con, he was asked how was his injury, “ I think it’s a pity, so now I am working harder to prepare myself, please anticipate!”
Maybe it’s because in 2013 he was injured and not able to stand on the stage to receive the awards with the members, so on 2014 MAMA, when the MC announced that EXO was the winner for Dae Sang, this was his reaction :
What was you thinking at that moment..?
Because of his busy schedule, he was once again taking the plane alone. Because his right ankle was injured again, he can only sing while sitting on the stage. He apologized for causing EXO not able to present a perfect stage. Recently, he became slimmer and tanner and yet he’s still apologizing to us..
He’s not a talkactive person, but every time he speaks, every word warms our heart

Year 2014, it is the beginning of his acting career.

Right after EXO TLP Concert in Seoul, he rushed to the set of IOIL to start filming until early in the morning
In the midst of member lineup changes causing only EXO-K was carrying on promotion on music stations, yet he still appeared in every single performance even though he’s filming for his drama during that time.
Because of filming schedule, he couldn’t join the other members but had to take the plane alone.
Visited Singapore less than 24 hours.
That time, everyone was doing the Ice Bucket Challenge and he got nominated by one of his sunbaes. But because of his schedule, he didn’t do it. Some people were really mad at this matter. But with his excellent acting skills as a ALS patient, he fought back and left their mouths hanging wide.
He was so thin during those days. Because he wasn’t resting properly, sometimes he even got swollen face. But it’s still considered as okay because as an idol, singing, dancing and busy schedule, it is his life. However, in IOIL, he was on barefoot in almost every shoot: walking/ running on the tarmac roads, on the stones and cycling. And in the movie Cart, the scene which he got slapped was real, he said “After getting slapped I went blank and started laughing.”

This is him, EXO’s main vocalist D.O., new rising actor Do Kyung Soo.
