With over a million copies sold, XOXO also became Korea's best-selling album in 12 years. As of December 2013, the Korean and Chinese versions of the album, as well as their respective repackaged versions, have collectively sold over 1,070,000 copies, making it the best-selling album of the year in the K-pop industry. The album reached over 300,000 collective pre-orders, and peaked at number one on the Billboard World Album Chart a week after release. The first performance of the Mandarin version of the song was aired on a popular Chinese variety show Happy Camp in mid-June. After a performance on SBS Inkigayo on June 3, 2013, Exo visited and thanked 2,000 fans who had been waiting at a nearby park to meet them. Both song versions were released digitally on June 3, 2013, and on the same day, two physical formats of the entire album XOXO were also released in South Korea: a "Kiss" edition in Korean and a "Hug" edition in Mandarin. May 30, 2013, the Korean and Chinese versions of the music video for "Wolf" were released, and the song's first performance was made on Mnet M! Countdown. The single was prematurely leaked online on July 27, when a video of the group practicing to the Korean version of the song was uploaded to various video-sharing websites. Composed by Hyuk Shin (Joombas), DK, Jordan Kyle, John Major, and Jarah Gibson, "Growl" is a dance-pop song with contemporary R&B and funk influences. The song was recorded in both Korean and Mandarin Chinese ("咆哮") versions. The single from this edition was its title track " Growl" ( 으르렁). In July 2013, a re-package version of 'XOXO', renamed 으르렁 ( Growl), was developed with three additional tracks. Some of these tracks were included on the XOXO album, including "Black Pearl" and "My Lady". Several "developmental" tracks were produced and recorded in 2011 before Exo's official debut into the entertainment industry but never made it into the first EP Mama. A demo version of the song was leaked in February 2013, in response to which producer Ryan Jhun later gave a warning to illegal downloaders on May 29, 2013, ".I will report it to FBI and service department for all links.". Member Kris revealed that it took them approximately 3 to 4 months to get the choreography down, due to its level of difficulty. In several shows such as Arirang's After School Club, the members explain that the dance has 3 elements: the trees and forest, the caves, and the wolf itself. The dance for the song was choreographed by Tony Testa. Yoo Young-jin provides background vocals. Kenzie also provided the lyrics for the Korean version of the song while Zhou Weijie penned the lyrics for the Mandarin Chinese version, "狼与美女". The album's lead single, "늑대와 미녀" ("The Wolf and the Beauty"), known in English as simply "Wolf", was composed by Will Simms, Nermin Harambasic from Dsign Music and SM Entertainment resident songwriter Kenzie.
