OH MY STARS, GAIANS! They've finally debuted! Surely you've all heard the hype for the latest GPOP band GALAXY? My goodness, they're the SHINeeiest thing I've ever laid eyes on! I recommend them 2NE1 out there who enjoys excellent music, dancing, and of course... costumes! These talented young performers have really upped their style game for their first ever music video. They're certainly starting off with a BIG BANG! Oh! Here comes their main dancer now!
SQUEEEEEE! I -- I mean -- Wow, I've apparently been hanging around Rina too often. But their new song Run & Gun is just so addictive! I've been listening to it so much I might need therapy! La la la la la, therapy! And you wanna know the best part? I've recreated his fashionable outfit right here in La Victoire! It'll be available until April 30th, 11:59 PM EST or until it all sells out. Okay, I gotta go see if he'll sign my copy of their album before too much of a crowd gathers around him... Make sure you check out their music video ASAP! I've attached it below for you guys!
Check out GALAXY's amazing premiere video below, featuring their hit single Run & Gun! Watch out for the dazzling F(x)!

A few other things I'd confirm this to be a kpop (particularly exo) item !
Sehun had the EXACT same hair style not too long ago, Growl Era, also very well photographed during the 2013 MAMA's as seen here, here, and here!
At one point in the announcement's "music video" for this "galaxy" You see the avatar with the gray hair AND a pair of black wings. It's already assumed that galaxy is referring to the EXO-M Leader/rapper Kris and to confirm it further, when EXO first released teaser's Kris' teaser was him with no more than GRAY hair, and the ability to fly. You do not see wings here but however you do see Kris with his black dragon here in their debut music video! A little extra tid-bit, I'd be lying if I said the pants didn't remind me of Kai's so infamous shiny pants (he's the one in the direct middle) in this music video which later on in MAMA era appears quite often. And I know you'll probably say they look nothing alike but the directions of the patterns on the pants very much so remind me of Kai's.
One last thing, the cap! Very much so reminds me of a Wolf era cap that many of the members were seen wearing before! Now, I know that any idol could've worn the hat. But..the majority of the XOXO/Growl albums have all twelve exo members in caps more than once!
This is just my input that I discussed with a friend who encouraged me to post in here so I hope you can just see why I believe it is an kpop/exo item and not a bieber item lol.
