'B-DAY: BAEKHYUN-DAY': Air time, how to live stream EXO K-pop star's advance birthday special session before enlistment on May 6

Unlike the usual live streams, this year Baekhyun's birthday live is truly heartbreaking for EXO fans as the 'Candy' crooner will be also parting ways with fans through the live, saying goodbye for a while

EXO Baekhyun is enlisting in the military on his birthday on May 6 and right before his birthday, the K-pop superstar will be on a live stream session 'B-DAY: BAEKHYUN-DAY' to talk to fans on May 1, perhaps the 'Delight' crooner's last stream before the singer goes on to his enlistment break. 

Baekhyun announced the news of enlistment on an Instagram live stream in March right before his 'Bambi' release where he shared, "The end of March is the final date at which I could push back my military enlistment. That’s why nothing has been scheduled for April." The SuperM also promised fans that he has filmed a bunch of content for his fans which would keep them entertained for the time that he will be gone.

How to live stream

EXO Baekhyun's 'B-DAY: BAEKHYUN-DAY' will be live-streamed from Vlive. Check here to get the direct link to the Birthday live stream. 

Concept

Unlike the usual live stream, this year Baekhyun's birthday live is truly heartbreaking for EXO fans as the 'Candy' crooner will be also parting ways with fans through the live, saying goodbye for a while. But as Baekhyun has always known to be considerate and mindful of the love and support he gets, he reassured in a previous live stream, “Even if I’m not here, we’ve filmed a lot of content in advance that will be released on YouTube and other places. It is possible people might be disappointed because I announced it so late, but I had just one intention. I didn’t want to make you feel like you had to prepare in advance. It’s not like we’re being separated forever. I wanted it to be like, ‘I’ll be right back.'”

EXO official tweeted about the birthday stream saying, "BAEKHYUN-DAY’ to be held on 5/1 3PM KST! To talk about music, play mini games, and have a Q&A session under the theme of an early birthday party!"

'BALDHYUN'

EXO fans are finding humor amidst the heartbreak by joking about how Baekhyun will have military but aka bald cut before the enlistment and maybe he will come on the birthday live with buzz-cut hair. A fan said "I CANT WAIT TO SEE BALDHYUN!" and another shared, "Ngl im kinda excited to see baldhyun!" An EXO-L quipped, "Get ready for the another chaotic vlive. Where EXO-L will question his sanity. AGAIN This is gonna be a fun event."

Baekhyun last released a solo album on March 30 titled 'Bambi' which went on to chart number 1 in South Korean Album (Gaon) chart, number 34 on UK Digital Albums, and 8 on the Japanese album chart. The singer has snagged a record number of 1,197,382 sales in South Korea with the album plus debuting at number fifteen on the Billboard World Album Chart. Listen to the Baekhyun's top songs here.
