So, what's a little competition amongst friends?
Despite the playful prodding of host Shindong on Tuesday's episode of the South Korean television program "Beatles Code 3D," Vixx band members Ravi and N dismissed the notion that the meteoric success of rival K-pop group Exo has hurt their career.
"Do you think the fact that your popularity has not increased even more than it has was because of EXO?" Shindong asked.
Vixx frontman N, shot down the suggestion.
Although his bandmate Ravi admitted it is possible that Exo, the first Korean group in 12 years to sell one million albums in one year in 2013, could have stolen some of Vixx's thunder, he likes the idea of how loyal that makes the fans they currently have.
"Exo are close friends of ours and our promotions often overlapped," Ravi said.
"If there was no Exo, there is the possibility that the interest that they attracted could have been directed toward us. However, we are promoting with the thought that the people who love us will always love us."
N the Exo love fest a step further.
"I think even more people love us thanks to Exo," he said.
"Exo has the public's love and is a lot higher up than us, but we are also diligently promoting our music. All those things matter, in my opinion."
Earlier that day, Exo announced that they have been forced to move their first-ever fan meeting in Japan, a two-day event scheduled for April 12 and 13, to Tokyo's Saitama Super Arena, due to overwhelming demand.
The event is expected to draw 70,000 fans, according to the Japanese news publication Nikkan Sports.
