During the recent episode of SBS MTV's "The Show," EXO-CBX brought home their first music show win as a unit. EXO-CBX is the first official sub-unit of EXO formed by S.M. Entertainment in 2016.

On the Nov. 15 episode of "The Show," EXO-CBX nabbed the number one spot with a total of 7,936 points. As reported by Soompi, tailing in second is T-ara with 7,050 points, followed by VIXX with a total score of 6,774 points. Unfortunately, EXO-CBX is unable to stay until the end of the show to accept their award in person.

Also this week, fellow EXO member Lay had a special performance on "The Show" with his new solo debut track "Lose Control." Kpop groups such as B.A.P., MAMAMOO, Snuper, ASTRO, IMFACT, VICTON, MOMOLAND, VIXX, BLOCK B's BASTARZ, and more also took the stage this week.

Meanwhile, EXO-CBX debut EP "Hey Mama!: The First Mini Album" lands No. 1 on Billboard's World Albums chart.  Since its release, the album already sold almost 2,000 copies in the first tracking week.

"Hey Mama"  shows its fun-pop title track which depicts the guys mix scores of vocal gymnastics along with its multiple appealing hooks baked inside the track. In the music video, the trio was styled as suave gentleman showing off a slick footwork which is the most mature style the EXO have seen to date.

Other than the chart, "Hey Mama!" debuted at No. 7 on the World Digital Songs chart, making it the fifth most-downloaded K-pop song of the week. Fellow EXO member Lay, who also released his debut EP in Chinese language "Lose Control" lands at No. 4 on World Albums and No. 18 on World Digital Songs.
