Fans wonder exactly how long it's been since EXO's Lay saw his fellow member Baekhyun, based on his recent SNS comments

AKP STAFF

Back on March 26, EXO's Baekhyun personally announced to fans that he will be enlisting for his mandatory military service duties next month, in April. 

Despite the fact that the announcement was expected, many fans were still shocked to hear the news. While some fans slowly processed the announcement, others noticed that fellow EXO member Lay had also been tuning in!

Hearing Baekhyun's announcement, Lay commented, "Don't be sad." 

Then, in another comment, Lay also said, "Yah Baekhyun, you've gained some weight." 

This second comment had some fans a little puzzled. Some are now wondering when Lay and Baekhyun saw each other last, commenting:

"That's so random kekekeke."
"It's really hard to tell at this point if [Lay] is actually a fellow member, or if he's just their somewhat close foreigner friend kekekeke."
"You misspelled it... did you forget Korean already..."
"Was 5 years ago during 'Monster' really the last time you saw each other??? Sure Baekhyun was like 58 kg back then but..."
"If you guys are still that close to joke around... can you promote as EXO at least once..."
"If he's in China I guess he can't see any of the members off this time..."
"Wait... are they actually still that close enough?"

And more. What do you think of Lay's surprise(?) appearance as a commenter?

Lay hasn’t promoted with EXO in nearly 5 years...Should he really still be considered part of EXO? He’s not going to come back to the group. I mean no offense, I’m just asking realistically. How is someone still considered part of a group if they never come back? I understand the first few years he was doing ambassadorships and all that but how long is he going to keep doing that? Lay knows that Kpop groups loose a lot of relevancy and fans as they get older, and he basically left EXO for China when they were at their peak. I have nothing against Lay. He’s immensely talented and built an incredible career for himself but should he still be considered a member of EXO when he hasn’t been active as a member in so many years?
