VIXX deny that good friends EXO hindered their growing popularity

On February 4, Mnet aired a new episode of 'Beatles Code 3D' with VIXX members, who showed off their muscles and powerful dancing abilities. 

In addition, Shindong asked the boys, "Do you think the fact that your popularity was not able to increase even more was because of EXO?"

N, who was taken aback by being compared to EXO, said, "No, no."  Ravi added, "EXO are close to us and our promotions often overlapped.  If there were no EXO, there is the possibility that the interest that went to them could have been directed toward us. However, we are promoting with the thought that the people who love us will always love us."

Mischievous Shindong asked the question again, applying more pressure to VIXX.  N said, "I think even more people love us thanks to EXO.  EXO has the public's love and is a lot higher up than us, but we are also diligently promoting our music.  Those parts do not fall behind in my opinion."
