Hi there!
Don't worry, we all had a hard time remembering korean names when we first joined the Kpop fandom. They all look and sound the same at first, especially when there's a lot of members in the group. Eventually, you'll get the hang of it so..fighting!
You can watch this:

EXO has a showtime, and if you watch it you get to see their dorky and dumb side. First ep here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDI9bFB3j6k I haven't finished watching it because, you know, work and responsibilities and yadda yadda, but I'm sure you can find the rest of the episodes in YouTube.
Also, let me give you a quick intro to EXO: They're divided into EXO-K (promotes and sings in Korean) and EXO-M (promotes and sings in mandarin). There's 12 members and all but 4 of them are korean. EXO are still rookies (they debuted in 2012) but they have a huge, HUGE fandom and they're very popular. They have a lot of MVs (there's usually 2 of the same song, one in korean and the other one in mandarin), but my all time favorites are What is Love, Angel, and Miracles in December. Quick advice: don't try to remember them by their hairstyles or hair color, it changes like 4 times in a month.
Members:
EXO-K
Leader Suho, also known as $uho because he's so rich he bathes in money (just kidding). He's a cutie pie.
Main Rapper Chanyeol, also known as the Happy Virus. Really tall, voice as deep as the ocean, and overall cute happy ball of sunshine.
Maknae (or youngest), Rapper and Dancer Sehun. Looks cold and serious but he's as dorky as the other members. He doesn't like being called 'cute', he prefers to be called 'cool'. Pretty flower boy, his hair has changed colors so many times they once decided to give him rainbow hair.
Main Vocalist Baekhyun, nicknamed Bacon. High notes, voice as rich as melted gold, and eyeliner game hella strong.
Main Vocalist D.O., also known as Squishy because most of the time you just wanna smooch him and bathe in his squishiness. He can also act creepy so we call him Satan too. Big eyes, heart-shaped lips, really nice voice and his english is sexy as hell. Fun fact: he looks yummy with red hair.
Main Dancer and Face of the Group Kai, also a maknae since he's Sehun's age. Gorgeous, happy puppy with a face sculpted by gods. Enters the "Kai Zone" when performing, and his face changes from handsome, innocent kid to devilishly sexy incubus.
EXO-M
Leader and Main Rapper Kris, nicknamed Picasso. He's Chinese-Canadian, and there was a time when we thought he was this quiet and smart guy, but he proved us wrong. He's the tallest of the entire group, and his voice is also thick and manly. Also, he's frigging hot.
Lead Rapper and Maknae Tao, commonly known as Kung Fu Panda, or Gucci Panda. He's Chinese, and also practices martial arts. Another flower boy (yeah, pretty much everyone in EXO is gorgeous), but this one is very aware of it and likes to torture us. Fun fact: he REALLY loves taking selcas (or selfies).
Main Vocalist Chen, nicknamed Dancing Machine and Chen Chen. Superb looks, pretty smile, and can go from cute dorky kitty to smexy shojo manga prince. Can hit really high notes, and his adam's apple and neck veins are very popular in the fandom.
Lead Vocalist and Face of the Group Luhan, he's also Chinese and his nicknames are Marilyn Monroe, Little Deer and Cute Little Prince. He is painfully beautiful, and his voice is soothing like honey and captivating like a rainbow after the storm.
Lead Vocalist and Lead Dancer Xiumin, also known as Baozi. He's the oldest of the group, and quite possibly the cutest. Other members call him a 'high note master', and he proved in Weekly Idol that he can indeed reach high notes. He doesn't have many lines, which is a shame because he has a great voice. Also, his anime hair and eyebrow game is hella strong too.
Main Dancer Lay, the last Chinese member and the one we call '.jpg' because in almost all of the group's public appearances he's remained still like a picture. Other nicknames are Unicorn and Stealer of Hearts, because even if you're not Lay-biased, you will still fall a little (or a lot) in love with him. Most adorable ball of fluffiness ever. He's very forgetful and lives in his own world most of the time. When he smiles, the world becomes a brighter place (he's my favorite, so I'm being a little biased here, sorry 'bout that). Also...DIMPLES.
And that's it. Long ass post. Sorry, couldn't help myself. Hope it helped!
