EXO leader Suho is currently generating significant buzz in Korea, with fans and bloggers discussing his "리즈 시절" (Liz era), a term referring to an artist's peak visual and performance period. This renewed interest is driven by his recent and upcoming solo activities, where he continues to showcase his versatility and dedication as a performer.
Specific events contributing to this discussion include his "The Moment Live on Melon" concert held on September 30, 2025, at the Chungmu Art Center, which featured an extensive setlist including "Who Are You," "Light the Fire," "Dot, Line, Plane," "Madison," "Birthday," "Hurdle," "Grey Suit," "O2," "Let's Love," and an EXO medley, extending from an advertised 80 minutes to a full 120 minutes with an encore. Additionally, his third solo album comeback, anticipated after a 1 year and 4 month hiatus, is highlighted for its emotional vocal style. Fans also recall his "Power" era, specifically the September 15, 2017, Music Bank performance, as a notable past "Liz" moment, praising his black hair and clean aesthetic.
Bloggers express strong positive impressions, noting Suho's improved guitar skills and the electrifying atmosphere of the EXO medley during his concert, which felt like a full EXO concert. They praise his emotional vocal delivery, particularly suited for autumn, and his consistent growth as an "all-rounder" through acting and musicals. His long training period of 6.5 years is cited as evidence of his unwavering dedication, with fans anticipating his continued "Liz" moments, even suggesting he aims for a new peak during winter EXO activities.
