‘Pilmography’: DAY6’s Young K surprises a teary Wonpil at his first solo concert

Young K and the rest of the DAY6 members are currently serving in the military

Wonpil became the last DAY6 member to go solo as he released his debut album, ‘Pilmography’, in February. However, it was marred with the K-pop idol getting Covid-19 on the day of the release with his promotional schedules getting postponed. But after recovering, he came back with a bang and also gifted fans with his first solo concert and a surprise guest.

Wonpil began his three-day concert on March 11 in Seoul. International fans were also excited as the third concert on March 13 will be live-streamed globally on Beyond LIVE’s platform. Day 1 was pretty eventful as Wonpil performed solo songs as well as DAY6 songs like ‘Like A Flowing Wind’ on the grand piano. We also got dancer Wonpil as he danced to ‘So This Is Love’. We also had Young K taking a military leave to surprise fans and Wonpil alike with his attendance.

Young K surprises Wonpil

At the moment all of the DAY6 members have enlisted in the military except for Wonpil who will be enlisting in the Navy sometime in March. Dowoon was the latest to enlist in January and so there weren’t any members left who could have attended unless they took a military leave. Young K had regretfully shared that he had tried to come but couldn’t as he is in KATUSA. But it looks like he was trying to throw off Wonpil as he surprised his DAY6 member by actually attending the concert.

Having grown out his mandatory buzz cut and sporting a leather jacket, Young K stunned everyone in the concert hall including Wonpil who teared up on stage. My days (DAY6’s fandom) got several endearing moments from Young K making a poster that said ‘Dancing God Dancing King Kim Wonpil’ to Wonpil crying during ‘A Journey’ and looking for Young K during ‘Time Of Our Life’. At one point he even asked if Young K could join him on stage. 

'Best friend behavior'

My Days trended Young K and Wonpil as they made tweets like “I love them so much, I can't even put it into words.” Another emotional fan posted, “Not going to act fake and pretend i didn't just cry.” One My Day shared, “So proud of our wonpiriii.” Another added, “Why would i lower my standards when young k went to watch wonpil's debut musical and solo concert despite his busy schedule as a DJ and active soldier.” One fan pointed out, “Naurrr look at young k's cheese stick finger writing on the ipad like a boomer uncle 😭😂 but pls HE'S WONPIL'S BIGGEST CHEERLEADER IM SOBBING.” Another My Day commented, “Best friend behaviour ahsjshska.” One fan added, "Who put this on my tl rn it’s 9am and i’m about to cry at work."
