An EXO-L with cancer met the idols of her dreams.

On June 23, Michelle Parenteau from California attended the '2018 Lotte Duty Free Family Festival' to meet EXO. 

Back in 2015, Michelle, who was 14-years-old at the time, found out she had tumors in her chin area. She received multiple treatments to fight cancer and through the tough journey, Michelle relied on EXO's music for support. Her story reached Korea's Make-A-Wish Foundation and SM Entertainment. With their help, Michell's wish to meet the idol stars came true. 

Michelle commented, "I was able to withstand the difficult surgeries thanks to EXO. I'm so happy that I'm able to express appreciation to them myself like this."
