The South Korean raptress takes the stage first with performances of 'The Baddest Female' and 'I Am the Best' before EXO belts out 'Growl' and 'Power'.

AceShowbiz - This year's Winter Olympic has officially ended. EXO and CL closed out the annual championship by performing their own hit songs at the closing ceremony, which took place on Sunday, February 25 in Pyeongchang, South Korea.

After an introduction which featured children ice skaters, traditional musicians and actress Honey Lee, who performed a classical Korean court dance, CL took the stage along with her fierce-looking backup dancers. Donning an all-black ensemble, the raptress began her performance with a rendition of "The Baddest Female". After that, she belted out 2NE1's mega hit "I Am the Best". The crowd sang along to the chorus during the rendition.

Her performance that night marked CL's first solo performance on South Korean television in several years. Speaking to Billboard after taking the stage, the South Korean beauty noted, "I wanted to introduce myself with 'Baddest Female' because that's my song, my first single and it represents me. And the 2NE1 song is world-known and everyone could sing along. I wanted to do something like that."

Meanwhile, EXO kicked off their performance with a traditional dance performance, which was performed by member Kai. The 1994-born heartthrob, who donned a blue hanbok, was accompanied by a single percussionist.

Following his performance, the other seven members came to stage by all-terrain vehicles to join Kai. Chinese member Lay didn't make an appearance during their performance. Despite that, they still successfully wowed both the crowd and viewers at home with renditions of "Growl" and "Power".

For their performance, the South Korean boyband rocked white suits with black accents. It led many people to think that their outfits were strikingly similar to KFC's Colonel Sanders. "Is it just me or are they dressed like the colonel?" one Twitter user wrote. Another similarly said, "WHY DOES EXO'S OUTFIT REMINDS ME OF KFC LMAO IS IT JUST ME OR IM TRIPPIN."
