Are your minds ready to be blown?!
Ok, then!
. . .
Everything started with the release of a super cool logo.... logo animation, to be exact.
("A truly amazing EXO logo process." The post takes you on a trip as it features a picture that takes the EXO logo and flips it over until you see an image of a cube missing an edge. The picture continues to flip the logo around over and over again, making the cube appear more 3D, until the very end, when the box returns to its previous position as the EXO logo.)

Cool, ha!?
Wait to see the rest!
They chosed 'EXODUS' for the album title - which is like - mass departure/evacuation...and also Exit...
Since debut their concept was - Two worlds - One root - One love, and every member was having it's own super power. (not gonna go into that rn)
Many are speculating that this title could mean - like - A New Beginning of EXO!
(cuz two members have left the group last year)
Last week SM Ent. started to release teasers one by one, in which every member (current number of EXO's members is 10) seems kinda lonely and confused... like where d f am I...and what is going on???
They have also opened a new Twitter account - @PathcodeEXO, where they were releasing hints/codes to help the fans solving the puzzle. (e.g. 'Vereisung' after the 3rd teaser..)
Watch!
(this is the particular order of how teasers were released)
#KAI
You can see the 'Pathcode' title - pay attention to that!
Also... pay attention to the written part of the video. There is: L o n d o n 15:00 written at the beginning - that's where he is located and the time info is (localLondon) time the first teaser was released. The phone is ringing! Kai's super power is Teleportation, as you can see. He hinted time traveling, as well.
#TAO
Who is chillin in B a r c e l o n a. The second teaser was released... can you guess?... Exactly at 10:10 Barcelona time.
He is reading the newspaper (EXO signs everywhere), also kinda confused and surprised with what he sees ('UFO sighting in Arizona' - hint for the next teaser location). Time stops! His super power is back. Tao's super power is Time Control.
#CHANYEOL
The next gent was Chanyeol, who is waking up in A r i z o n a! 17:12 - you know what it means by now. His super power is Fire.
Like I said before.. The hint was 'Vereisung' - in German it means 'Freezing'.
#XUMIN
B e r l i n 05:07. Xumin is strolling along the streets of Berlin. He is a little bit tipsy, isn't he... Xumin's super power is Frost.
Drunk or not - but the TV says: E d i n b u r g h 15:25. And the Whirligig thingy - wiki says: 'Whirligigs are most commonly powered by the wind'.
Unlike other members - he doesn't have a ring on his hands...hmmm
(March 21, was the day I actually started to watch those teasers and hints closely - that shizz gained my interest....(and I started to write this post on that day... that's why, from this point, the hints/codes(from the Twitter/Weibo) would be included here... (from this point, I'm gonna try, like the millions of fans across the world, to find/discover clues for the remaining 5 members)... Sherlock mode: ON!

#SEHUN
Guess who is in Edinburgh? Guess whose super power is Wind? (dandelion at the end...)
What's interesting in this teaser is the obvious reference to Kris and Luhan (2 members who have left the group) - Luhan's superpower was Telekinesis (those TWO kids controlling the toys); Kris's superpower was Flight (Sehun was unnecessary mean to that little floating airplane toy)... And the Eclipse reference - Well... back in the days - these two were looking at the exact same thing
When he runs out of the room, and when the door close - did you noticed that the room is empty... you can see it on the door handle - creepy!
Anyway... He marked the 'Armandale St' on the map?! People are saying that there is a City of Armandale in Australia(?) (location hint, possibly?). And the clock tower is showing 4:45 (16:45)...(teaser time hint? Which country/continent tho?)... And which member is hinted?

Oh, there is Twitter Hint!!! "Two days later, look out for my sails?... look up from our sails?.... look out for Marseilles?...la Cap to Marseilles? D f are you saying little one???
I'm guessing: new teaser will be out on Monday (the kid said:two days later...) at 16:45 France time (bc Marseille)... And the member would be.... I have no idea....! Location...idk...France!?
Well.... I was right about the location....at least...
Clues on Twitter: (damn...I've discovered this after I watched the teaser...)
-_________s grow; there are not made - Peter F. Drucker
-A__________ is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way. - John C. Maxwell.
-___________s are the ones who keep faith with the past, keep step with the present, and keep the promise to posterity. - Harold J. Seymour.
- ??:01
(first three are password hints, the last one is teaser hint)
Obviously - the answers for fill in the blank questions was: LEADERS. Suho is the leader of EXO.
#SUHO
Handsome leader wakes up in M a r s e i l l e 10:22. No water!!! Suddenly he's wandering around confused af... And then again... Suddenly, it started to rain... Water is back!!!.... Suho's super power is Water.
Tbh, I didn't catch potential hints from the teaser (if there were any...?). Maybe the whispering is the clue... but I'm not sure wtf that mumbling means... Think outside of the box...Think outside of the box.....Hmmm
The clock on his phone is showing 5/17h... So, the next teaser could be out at 17:01... today? I keep hearing 'Russia'... Others are saying that they hear: Met me in Chicago(???)... Again...Few people are mentioning Australia, bc of the someones name in the magazine(??)
Crazy....
Haven't seen the ring... just sayin!
**********Tuesday, March 24 (new teaser is out)
Oh.... c'mon... Really? D f? My guessing was wrong... I think nobody could have predicted this... I mean... How? What was the clue???
#CHEN
He is in A l m a t y 20:01, and FYI that's the largest city in Kazakhstan... (but I think I know why Almaty.... just wait...). Chen's super power is Lightning, and there is some lightning going on in the video... As well as the Eclipse.... Don't tell me that there is a secret message behind that Morse code sounds... (now, I'll try to crack it.. Call me Holmes... Sherlock Holmes.... I could be so wrong rn... L!)
Twitter hints:
- The 2nd track (password hint)
- Dawn (teaser hint)
Ok, then.... The next teaser will be out.. at the DAWN?! He carries a book titled Overdose (and that's EXO's latest album title).. So I'm guessing, the hint refers to '2nd track' on that album?... Let me check...*few seconds later* It's a song named 'Moonlight'. The password is Moonlight.
Hmmm... Bc Chen is from ExoM, I think the next member will be from ExoK, and bc of the 'MoonLIGHT' word... I think it would be Baekhyun... cuz his superpower is Light.
Current status:
The remaining letters are: C/L/Y...
The remaining members are: Baekhyun/D.O/Lay
(I'm pretty sure the next one is Beak, in any city in the world that starts with L.
(month ago (more or less) fans (EXO-L - fandom name) discovered that the title song of EXODUS album is CALL ME BABY (the letters are coming together, aren't they!!!!... I love you SM team - you've created an awesome concept)
***********Wednesday, March 25 (new teaser is out)
It's......... I guessed it right this time...
#BEAKHYUN
He is in L y o n 06:27 (France again... Dawn... I guess). Dawn... Darkness... Broken earphones... Scary voice ('Someone is.....'(looking/looking for ya..)... A new message... He is running... Darkness everywhere... He is trapped... Surrenders... His super power is Light. Sparkles...oh yeah. (interesting fact: Lyon has the title of Capital of Lights.)
Twitter hints:
- We are _____. (password hint) - EXO's ment is always 'We are ONE'...So, ONE is the password.
- YUNNAN (teaser hint)
The next member is probably Lay... YUNNAN is the city in China... therefore... he'll be in Yunnan, China... idk the right time tho.
#LAY
Oh yeah... I was right again (it wasn't so hard, I admit it..)...You can't go wrong when only two members remained...but yeah... He is in Y u n n a n 22:12. Wilted flower in the middle of the street. 'You are my sunshine... I need you... You are the one...'??? Flower flourished. Healing - Lay's super power is activated again.
Twitter hint:
- WHO ARE YOU? (password hint) - The answer was EXO-L :) - SM asked fans - Who are you :)
- Beginning=End (teaser hint) -that makes sense, and it's completely in sync with what I've said in my first few sentences of this post. It's an end of an era, but the beginning of a new one.
************Friday, March 27 (the last teaser is out)
#D.O.
He is in C o l o r a d o 09:01.That's interesting - different clothes, like different days?...like he is aware of what is going on for a few days nowActually.... Is he the one who called the rest of the crew for an epic gathering? 7 + 3 = 10.... 10 members? but wasn't it like 6 ExoK and 4ExoM's members...whateva... D.O.'s super power/element is Earth.
Now... It's time for them to reunite, I suppose.... Can't wait for the music video.... The song is already out.... BUT... I'll save that for another/separated post :)

Honestly, I find all the pathcodes, hints, symbols, clues and numbers extremely interesting. Whoever came up with the concept teaser is a GENIUS... smart, creative, and daring team you have, dear SME!....and the boys look ridiculously gorgeous
So, after being scattered all over the globe.. EXO REUNITE..
During the 'releasing teasers' time - SM's website was giving the questions for the fans(related to the teaser), and answers on those questions were passwords for unlocking the teaser images/pics of the member from the related teaser.(interesting much)
Fans and their imagination - something you should never neglect! One of the theories behind the teasers/city names at the time first few teasers were released... Not bad at all... Nice try... Unfortunately, this isn't quite accurate (or is it ----------------------------)....Cool idea... Kudos....
