In the video uploaded by W Korea magazine, Baekhyun feels the story of a fan who was the same office worker as himself when he became a social worker during his military service.
On February 24, a video entitled, “Baekhyun trouble counseling center has opened” was published on fashion magazine W Korea's official YouTube account. On this occasion Baekhyun appeared and greeted fans shyly.
“Hello customer W. This is Baekhyun. I greet you after 2 years, I'm back," he said. Then as a problem solver, the EXO member read the fans' worries one by one and suggested realistic solutions.
"I respect workers," he said after he read a fan message that began with "I am a 23-year-old office worker." It seems that since enrolling as a social worker, Baekhyun has experienced office hours from 9 to 6, so he can sympathize with fans.
In the message, the fan also said that since they are resting when everyone is working and working when everyone is resting, it has become increasingly difficult for them to meet friends, making them feel lonely and disconnected. Reading this, Baekhyun expressed that he felt the same way, and because his friends since young started working at the company, he wasn't able to see them over the weekends during idol schedules.
“The group chats with my friends became very quiet, so I felt as though I was getting away from them. But I don't think you'll feel lonely if you still find your friends comfortable when you see them after all this time," she said.
Baekhyun then suggested fans get a hobby, and revealed that his current hobby is golf. “I am really sincere in playing golf. I received a lot of lessons," he concluded. Meanwhile, Baekhyun himself officially completed his mandatory military service on February 5 yesterday and the next day held a live broadcast on YouTube to greet his fans. (wk/aiss)
