Exo (stylized as EXO /ˌɛks ˈəʊ/ EKS-oh; Korean: 엑소) is a South Korean-Chinese boy band produced by S.M. Entertainment. Formed in 2011 in Seoul, South Korea, Exo comprises twelve members separated into two subgroups, Exo-K and Exo-M, performing their music in Korean and Mandarin. Their name was taken from exoplanet,a term referring to planets outside of the Solar System.

Exo made their official debut on April 8, 2012 with the release of their debut single, "Mama". The single was a moderate success; Exo-M's version topped mainland Chinese music charts after only one day of release, and Exo-K's "Mama" music video reached to number seven on YouTube's Global Chart.The group's two albums, the debut EP Mama and the comeback studio album XOXO, released in 2012 and 2013 respectively, were major commercial hits, selling nearly a million units in total worldwide.The lead single off XOXO, "Wolf", was the group's first number-one song in Korea and their first song to win trophies on music shows from all three of Korea's major free-to-air broadcast stations, earning the name "triple win."

The group received numerous "newcomer" awards in 2012, and has since won over 20 awards since their debut in April 2012.
