[Pann] Baekhyun's solo promotion

Pann: But honestly Baekhyun's solo promotion 

OP: It is too much. I still can't forget that there was no schedule for a whole week for Candy. He had to do Vapp to fill in. If the concert is online, they should post a lot of behind-the-scene photos, and a good marketing agency should upload at least a stage on YouTube to attract muggles, but still they didn't do that. Even the contents for fans to watch, they tell us to wait for months. Even though it is his first Japanese album, there is no promotion truck, no broadcast appearance, and the official account doesn't even promote properly.

- I'm also type of fangirling positively, but the agency is the only exception, I get mad only when I look at them.

- Honestly, Baekhyun's fans can't help but have kind of being a victim. I'm a type of positive fangirling and I don't even talk ill of the agency, but even I have that kind of feeling as a victim. If I'm even like this, that says it all. How can they treat an artist like Baekhyun like this? It's even lacking if they carry him around on their back.

- We can't help but being pissed off. This time too, just watch! Watch if they can promote him more. I think he could surpass 100k copies. If he is doing as much as a whole group, they should have thought about promoting him more, right? They are not even doing any promotion. I'm so frustrated. Release an article too..

Pann: Ah but I'm the only one now that

OP: Getting mad because of Baekhyun's Japanese promotion? He has already surpassed 90k without any promotion. If they did, I think he can reach 100k on Weekly chart. How can they not do anything to this extent?

- He sells as much as a group in Japan by himself, and they don't even give him a promotion truck and there isn't even any promotion. Isn't this too much? Even Japanese fans said that made no sense. What are you doing, Avex? I really don't want to be rude, but this is too much.

- I can understand that Avex isn't in good situation right now, but fck what is the official account doing? I'm fcking angry.

- I'm really angry. I think he could surpass 100k if they did promotion for him. They prevent group order and they don't even promote him, what are they even doing for him?

Pann: I look at Baekhyun's Japanese promotion and I feel even more

OP: I didn't even expect him to appear on Music Station broadcast. Looking at how they didn't even do the most basic promotion which is the truck, official account didn't even retweet, and didn't even release behind-the-scenes stuff, I had just been hit with reality. I hope he can go to an agency that pushes artists well even if it is just a new agency.

- Personally, I like the music style of SM, but SM didn't support 'UN Village' to be the title song, Byun Baekhyun said he wanted to do it, so he chose it. I think even if he goes to another agency, I think he can choose songs on his own well.

- Whenever someone posts an article like this, I'm frustrated and want to exploded at those who pray for the album quality and song quality. Aside from SM, there is no agency that makes good songs? Baekhyun's songs aren't even specialized for idols, they are mainly R&B. There is no reason to stay with SM if he can't receive any deal. They don't even push him. They just treat him like a machine that makes money. Even if he releases a good album, they don't do promotion, what are you satisfied with?
> They are like a fog in a well. SM fans just make me sick really.

- But big company has good side too.
> What is good about being a big company? I'm not really picking a fight. I'm just asking you because I'm really curious that what has been good about the promotion for his solo promotions in both Korea and Japan?
> They are like "There is no other (company) aside from SM" seriously, they are like fog in a well.
> Do you not listen to other singers' songs that aren't from SM? Recently small/medium-sized company pay overseas composers to buy songs as well.
> Honestly, I hoped Baekhyun to keep staying in SM, but... I'm so annoyed recently... What's the treatment seriously? They don't promote him at all. Avex is also annoying.
> And the Japanese promotion... I can understand that Avex's situation isn't good because of Corona but fck SM, they don't even release article? Fck

[Instiz/Pann] Nonfan, muggles, talk of the town

Instiz: I'm not a Baekhyun's fan, and I don't want to look like a fan

OP: What I said may sound weird but it's not that I dislike him, I'm not a fan but I like his songs so much that I want to (make his song) my Kakaotalk profile music. I have only put pop songs, so if I put Baekhyun's song, I wonder whether I will look like a fan? My Kakaotalk is like a muggle area, so I'm hesitating. First of all, Baekhyun's song suits my current mood so much that I want to try it.

- There are many people around me adding Baekhyun's songs so it's not really a big deal...

- I think they may think you are a fan...

- If you are a muggle, (they) would just think you like the song.

- But around me, there are a lot of people adding Baekhyun's songs especially 'My Love'
> Yup it's right. Many people has this song.
> Right? Even men put (this song).

- My friends add a lot of Baekhyun's OSTs, and the male ratio is even more.

- I think they just think you have good impression on Baekhyun for once.

- Which song are you gonna add?
> Baekhyun's 'Bungee'
> I think 'Bungee' is fine.
> It is the song that are mentioned a lot among his b-sides.

- Among my friends, real muggles also say Baekhyun's songs are good and many of them have his songs as their profile music, so I think it's fine.

- Many people who aren't his fans add his OSTs (on profile music)

- I also added 'Amusement Park'!

- I think they might think you are a fan, but I don't think muggles pay attention to that.

- If there are people asking you whether you are Baekhyun's fan, if you say because you like the song, they would just be like "Oh  I see"... as it's not even a group.

- I'm a fan, but when I see my muggle friends or people who aren't Baekhyun fans do that, I don't think they are fans. I just thought they like that song. People might look like a fan if they have Baekhyun's songs all the time, but if you have his song some times while having pop songs, I don't think it's a big deal. Muggles around me have many Baekhyun's songs as their profile music, too. 

- Why is this so cute? I'm not even EXO-L but I like his songs so much that I added 'Amusement Park', 'Love Again' and this and that as well.

Instiz: Honestly everyone had (these) idols in their heart for once 

OP: Baekhyun and Infinite L. Aren't they the walls? They are everyone's lovers.

- My mom likes these two as well.

- Baekhyun. People around me all like him.

- I still have Baekhyun in my heart.

- Agree. I have never been a fan of Infinite or EXO, but I have good impression on L and Baekhyun so that I want to get to know more about them.

- I thought of Baekhyun before I came in.

- I agree on both of them. 

- I have never seen anyone who neither didn't know nor didn't like them.

- I still have Baekhyun-ssi in my heart though.

- I agree on Baekhyun. Everyone has their own bias, but also has Baekhyun in their heart at the same time. 

- Baekhyun is my first and last love... there was really no one who didn't like Baekhyun and L... When I was in female middle school and high school, they were first loves of all my friends.

Pann: Idols that are the talk of the town in no matter what communities

EXO Baekhyun

NCT Jaehyun Taeyong

BTS Jungkook V

SNSD Taeyeon

BlackPink Jennie

Twice Sana

The rest are IU, Park Jinyoung, Rain, GD

It's impossible to refute this as they are celebrities whose star quality is insane.

- I really agree on Baekhyun, V, Jungkook, Jaehyun, Taeyeon, and Jennie. They are bashed a lot but they are the most successful.

- V, Jungkook, and Baekhyun, it has been many years since they debuted, but they are amazing. Those who are obsessed with them as well. Not everyone can be celebrities, they have to make people go crazy over to that extent (like these guys).

[Pann/Instiz] Baekhyun gets nominated for 'Best Pop Album' at Korean Music Awards (KMA)



Pann: Nominees for 2021's KMA

- I’m a fan of another artist and I can prove it. Of course Baekhyun is popular, but if you exclude popularity then look at him, this time he has many high-quality songs during his solo activities, so I hope he could achieve a big and good award. Of course his results were also very good, but the quality of his albums are so high that I still enjoy listening to them, especially ‘Candy’ album. (Best comment)

- When you exclude Baekhyun's popularity and see the quality of his album, the quality of his album is no joke. And that album of Baek Yerin too, all the songs including b-sides are really good.
> Baekhyun and Baek Yerin for real.

- Heol what's with Baekhyun...

- All solo songs of Byun Baekhyun are very good. I hope he can win the award.

Pann: Heol Baekhyun gets nominated at KMA

OP: This award show is different from those that give awards to attendants or those that give as they want to, it's a really strict and prestigious award ceremony, so it is already great to be nominated.

- The quality of his album is insane.

- It's great to be nominated for such a prestigious award with solo album. I see him in a new light.

- I'm not a fan and it was my first time listening to Baekhyun's songs through that album. It is really well-made. I think his vocals are really unique. Aside from R&B music? I think he suits sad ballad as well.

- It's fcking awesome. Insane.

- I'm a fan of another artist but I think I listened to Baekhyun's 'Poppin' for 100 times.

- He got nominated then I hope he will win the award too.

- It's real that the more people are jealous (of him), the more successful he is.

- He is already successful but I still hope more and more people will listen to (the album/him)

- Baekhyun's album quality is really daebak.

- Baekhyun's solo songs are all good.

- I'm so proud of him to get nominated as a soloist. Looking forward to his solo activities.

- I'm a fan of another artist, but Baekhyun's solo album and songs are really all good. I really like them all.

- King Hyun.

- 'Delight' is a masterpiece.

- Even when it has been months since it was released, there is no album except for 'Delight' that I still play the whole album. It's really a masterpiece.

- 'Love Again' and 'Bungee' are my most favorite songs.

- *Shaking* I was predicting that his first album would win the award. The quality of that album is just fcking high-class.

Instiz: What is the meaning of KMA to idols' fans?

- It tends to be hard to win the awards as they evaluate the musicality.

- It's an award ceremony that give awards based on musicality, so it's rare for an idol to win. There are more indie artists winning.

- Musicality... first of all, it's already hard for idols to get nominated.

Instiz: Is KMA that great?

- The award ceremony where they give awards by evaluating the musicality. No one would be complaining even if it is based on judging process.

- Yes. It's great. You can't compare it to MAMA and Melon Music Award. They give awards based on musicality.

- The award ceremony where they give awards based on musicality only. Getting nominated is already great.

- It's the only award ceremony in our country that is prestigious and no one would complain.

- Yup yup. It's hard to win and also hard to get nominated.

- If someone asks if there is any Grammy Awards in Korea which only look at musicality without the public recognition, KMA is close to it. For Grammy Awards, the people working in the industry/ associations vote, right? excluding fans' opinions. It's fine to see KMA that way, too.

[Pann/Instiz] Baekhyun Ha Sungwoon Im Hanbyul IG Live + IU's Palette + Vocal type vs Perform type

Pann: Baekhyun Ha Sungwoon Im Hanbyul IG Live 

- I'm a Haneul, but it's fortunate that Sungwoon has a friend (hyung) like Baekhyun-nim. He (Baekhyun) gives him many advice on singing and even a god advice that he must not lose his own voice while practicing. This is such a desirable friendship.

- The people who are really sincere about singing... I'm a Baekhyun's fan but it was a nice IG live.

- That they are so sincere about their job is fcking good.

- They are the ones that are already good enough at singing, but still constantly study and make efforts, such cool people. They are truly admirable.

- This is out of topic, but while I was watching, Im Hanbyul-nim as well as Ha Sungwoon-nim use the phrase '고게 맞쥐*/goge maj-jwi (that's right)', but only Baekhyun didn't use it. It is the popular phrase found by Baekhyun, but he doesn't use. I happen to be obsessed over Baekhyun's version of 'goge maj-jwi'.
> Baekhyun did say 
goge maj-jwi in the IG live. Im Hanbyul said it, so he followed after. If you search on Twitter, short clip will come out right away.
(t/n: A member of NCT said NCT's Mark learned the phrase from Baekhyun, then it became popular among NCT members and their fandom, then a member of Aespa also uses it, so it is said to be a popular phrase in SM. Many people started using it. But in this IG live, fans found Baekhyun saying it for the first time. You can watch this video X)

- Byun Baekhyun... it's cool of him to be serious about his job, and we are also sincere toward you as well... I like you only for a long long time.

- The topic was almost all about singing. It's nice that they are greedy about singing.

- The real singers.

- Ah seriously, my bias is Ha Sungwoon, and my most favorite singing style is Im Hanbyul as well as Baekhyun-nim whom I thought his idol capabilities (face, skills, performance, manner) are always 100 points. It's fortunate that our Sungwoon have only good people around him.

- As the more I see Baekhyun, the more I feel like he is person who is strong and self-centered, that is good. And he looks like he has high dignity and he is relaxed.

- Ha Sungwoon, Im Hanbyul, Byun Baekhyun, and even Kim Jaehwan who wrote comments have such a desirable friendship. They are all good singers, but it was nice to see how they can make efforts, share their concerns and tips with each other, and give each other good influence. Honestly, we don't have many opportunities to see the efforts behind idols, so it is good to see our biases' attitude toward their work and singing.

Pann: Idols that (make) you wonder what would they do if they wasn't celebrities

- I remember people said even if Byun Baekhyun wasn't an idol, he would still be popular and be called an idol of this or that field as an ordinary person. If he worked in PC bang (internet cafe), he would be an idol of PC bang industry. If he worked at a convenience store, he would be an idol of convenience store industry. If I worked for a company, he would be an idol of a certain company. If he was a cook, he would be an idol in the cooking industry, etc...

- Byun Baekhyun is completely Genius Idol. And Kai is so sexy when he dances.

- Baekhyun for real.

- I agree on Baekhyun and Jennie.

- I agree on Baekhyun and Jennie so much.

- I really agree on GD and Baekhyun.

- I totally agree on Baekhyun and Jang Wonyoung.

Pann: Whom you guys want to appear on IU's Palette?

- Baekhyun. I want to see the Moon Lovers' combination again.

- Do you guys know the fan-edit video of Baekhyun and IU's singing 'UN Village'? If you guys watch this, you guys will really root for Baekhyun-nim. Seriously ㅠㅠㅠ I cry every day while watching this https://youtu.be/yBrIbmJb5ww, must watch it... You guys won't regret.

- EXO's Baekhyun.

- Ah, GD and Baekhyun for real. I hope they will appear on the show. [...] For Baekhyun, I was seriously into 'Moon Lovers' and I'm really looking forward to hearing their voice combination. I hope they both can release a song together.

- D.O., Baekhyun, GD, I hope any of them can appear.

Instiz: Is Baekhyun a vocal type or a perform type? I think he is kind of in the middle.

- A vocalist who can do performance.

- All-rounder.

- Vocal type?? Well because he’s a vocalist, but he is a good performer as well.

- Vocal type.

- If I have to pick one, his root is vocal type (because he is main vocalist) but he is also good at performing, isn’t he?

- My Kyoong-pride suddenly increases. Baekku is good at everything.

- He is an all-rounder but if I have to pick one between two at all cost, I think he’s vocal. His position is already a main vocalist in his group though.

- Those who are like Baekhyun are called all-rounder though.

- It is vocal if I have to pick one... But he definitely has great skills at both.

- Vocal type... but now performing is added.

- A vocal type that is good at feeling the rhythms.

- He is also very good at performing, but his vocals are so outstanding.

[Youtube/Pann] Baekhyun stood out in 'Tiger Inside' on Sketchbook + high note


YoutubeSuperM - Tiger Inside [Yoo Heeyeol’s Sketchbook] 20200911

[+3.4k] Baekhyun is the oldest brother there, but why does he look like a puppy the most? The title is Tiger, but he's like 'Puppy Inside' by himself.

[+2.4k] Baekhyun's voice just grabs the core (of the song) well. In fact, it's already a good song, but he is like 'Do I need to make the quality higher?'  He is amazing, seriously.

[+1.6k] Baekhyun and Taemin's live singing is fcking insane. They both are so good. Their unique voices are nice as well.

[+1.5k] That Baekhyun goes up a note higher is insane...

[+1.1k] This is the only performance where Baekhyun's high note is captured well, so I keep watching this video. Only the MV and Yoo Heeyeol's Sketchbook saved Baekhyun's high notes the best. Baekhyun's high note that wasn't captured well even in the dance practice.

[+940] The NCT members are really good, but you really can't ignore their years of experience...Taemin and Baekhyun are even so outstanding even among those that are good.

[+835] Baekhyun-nim, he burned it up. His throat and his performance. It was crazy. His live singing... I can hear it vividly, but I still can't believe it's live. This....This is God.

[+729] I can feel that SM is really a fundamental company, and I can see that as a real singer, they stress on vocals. These days, idols tend to focus on performance more than singing/songs. Honestly, there are many times I wonder if they are dancers, but I like that SM idols prioritize singing. Main vocals like Baekhyun go beyond (idol) class and their performances are also outstanding. But as expected there is still a sound of SM.

[+665] No, but is Baekhyun's high note even real? I was so surprised at the digital version already, but he is even good at live performance like this? He is already good enough to be called genius, but he is developing even more. It's easy to be lazy when you are at the top of a certain field, but it's cool of him to keep practicing and working hard.

[+601] Byun Baekhyun what's that? He carries (team) wherever he goes.

[+354] No, I didn't know Baekhyun-nim was going to sing that high note live...

[+88] You really can't ignore their years of experiences. NCT does so well, but when Taemin and Baekhyun stand at the middle, it feels like they grab the center right away. They are seriously fcking good.

[+70] Baekhyun's powerful vocals... As it feels like it's always lacking if I clap my hands for him, I clap with my feet as well.

Pann: Is there any idol who reaches high note coolly?

[+91] Baekhyun
> Baekhyun is really a dolphin. EXO's songs as well as SuperM's songs. If talking about fcking awesome high notes that are like ultrasonic waves, it's Baekhyun.
> Especially high notes of 'Tiger Inside' and 'El Dorado'. Seriously the best.

[+27] Baekhyun

[+14] Baekhyun. SuperM's title songs and also 'El Dorado' are insane.

[+2] My bias is in SuperM, but every time Baekhyun reaches high notes, it's like I'm going to heaven.




[Youtube] T1 X Raiden, BAEKHYUN, CHANGMO 'Runner' Teaser #1


YoutubeT1 X Raiden, BAEKHYUN, CHANGMO 'Runner' Teaser #1

- What? What is this insane lineup...?

- If it's Changmo and Baekhyun, I think they will eat up the digital chart.

- Wow, T1 is really a legend. I can't believe it's T1, Changmo, and Baekhyun. They are like the best in the worldview. Daebak I don't think I can sleep until it is released.

- With EXO's Baekhyun, is that Changmo or Canna? Anyway, the line-up is insane.

- Baekhyun is the most diligent and busiest person in 2021. That out-of-this-world line-up, that out-of-this-world combination. It's already a god-tier masterpiece.

- No, but what is this line-up? What's this? Is it real? I'm screaming...

- Is this out-of-this-world line-up really possible?

- Baekhyun-nim and Changmo??? What a line-up is this

- I want to be angry as I was like what they are doing during the (game) season, but that is such a god-tier line-up.

- Woah Baekhyun and Changmo are legends, seriously.

- Woah, now even Baekhyun as well? What else are you guys going to do...

- If it's Baekhyun and Changmo, there is no need for words. It is possible as it's T1...

[News] Royal Dive talked about Baekhyun and 'Amusement Park'

News

Royal Dive are a duo of producers: Jun Byoung Sun and Hong Young In.

The most satisfying song of the two producers is Baekhyun's 'Amusement Park.' They were in awe at the skills and efforts of Baekhyun who has a great ability to sing as similar as possible to the vocalization and even pronunciation in the demo.

"'Amusement Park' is a song that was cutely made, rather than devoting all energy into it, I didn't know it would go to Baekhyun. When I listened to the recording, I thought, 'The song went to the right owner.'" (Jun Byoung Sun)

"When we went to play at a pension (a type of small hotel/homestay), the complete recording file came, then I listened to it. I thought, 'This person really sang it as he understood the original artist's purpose perfectly.' He didn't change the key, and from the tone to vibration, he sang it very similar to the demo. At the pension, we were so touched, so we were together holding hands and listening to it (laughing)" (Hong Young In)

[Pann] Reactions to Baekhyun's solo concert






Pann: The response on Baekhyun's online concert yesterday 

- To release the quality to this point, I think it's because Baekhyun was making efforts, rather than SM poured money into it.

- Rather than SM, it's Baekhyun and Shim Jaewon that were making efforts though.

- It should be Baekhyun and Shim Jaewon that made a lot of efforts and worked hard to give a lot of inputs and to bring out such a good quality... And SM was financially supportive.

- Byun Baekhyun is so incredible.... as expected of Baekhyun.

- His online concert is legendary. From the first song ‘Young’ to the ending song ‘Cherish’ are all seriously perfect.

- Baekhyun Solo King. I’m looking forward to his next solo. The only thing I’m worried about is my seat.

- I like him playing the piano so much. Really.

- Wow I’m an Ahgase but just by looking at the post, it’s cool and I become curious that I want to watch. Can I even pay now to watch?

- Baekhyun isn’t a solo singer since the beginning but he comes out of a group and has only been active as a soloist for 2 years. He has never had experience with (solo) tour, but it’s really an outstanding number if it’s 110k.

- No matter how I look at this, Baekhyun wrote history of online concert again... don’t talk if you couldn’t watch ‘Psycho’ stage. I’m a winner for paying 44k won to watch a show like this.

- My dongsaeng is a Baekhyun's fan, so I was watching next to them. The organization is solid. It’s obvious that he prepared diligently.

- That his solo concert gets compared to a group's is already successful.

- The way even people who quitted being fans praise him shows that when they were his fans, they only had good memories that they even paid for the concert.

- Honestly it’s already amazing if he gets 50k to 70k as a soloist, but he even surpassed 100k...woah

- He has 110k as a soloist and the result is surprisingly better than 2 groups. Isn’t this hard? as a soloist, he fills in the audience as many as a group does though.

- Many people say those are saying good words for him because he was their old bias, but it is even harder for old bias to remain as good memories though. Honestly, there are many fans when they quit being fans, it can be either their affection for their bias decreases or they hate their bias. And for me, perhaps even if I quit being a fan of Baekhyun, I think the time when I like him will remain as good memories. I have the confidence. And it isn't easy, but Baekhyun really gives me a lot of things during the time I like him.

- Woah This is worth learning from. Not a fan but I’m so jealous.

[Instiz] Baekhyun's solo concert is shocking to me



Instiz: Baekhyun's solo concert is shocking to me

OP: Last weekend, my friend, an EXO-L, asked me to watch the concert with them. How to say, even when it was a solo concert, my friend who just cheered for Baekhyun during 2 hours without worrying at all about his live singing, vocals, dancing, ment; and Baekhyun who was singing and having fun with his heavenly capability... the combination of these 2 people was really shocking to me.

Honestly, even for my bias, there were stages that I was worried about like their live singing so that I couldn't enjoy. They tend to do well, but there are also days where it was bad depending on their condition.

But before the concert started, my friend had no doubt about Baekhyun's stage at all. Only full of doubts and distrust about Beyond live.

Of course, I know that Baekhyun does well, but I didn't know he does well to that extent. When he was singing 'Growl', his vocal skills improved much more than before, so it sounds much better than digital version.

As I was listening, I thought that it would be great if he re-recorded the old songs.

'Underwater', 'Young', Japanese song all of them,  the ending 'Cherish You'? This was so good. And at the end, I liked Baekhyun-nim's face much better than anything else. 

Comments:

- I was looking forward to Baekhyun's concert a lot, and it was beyond my expectation.

- Only full of doubts and distrust about Beyond live kekeke I feel you.

- I didn't expect much from online concert, but because it was Baekhyun, I was anticipating a little. I watched it... It kinds of...fresh shocking. It was so so so good.

- I was looking forward to it because I'm a fan, but it's much better than my expectation. It still lingers in my head crazily.

- He really did a good job. I watched it with my colleagues and everyone was in awe.

- It's so funny. I had doubt about Beyond Live as well, but I didn't have any doubts about Baekhyun. Because I believe he would do well as much as he had prepared.

- I watched it without expecting much because it was online concert. (Of course I know Baekhyun does well, but I was looking forward to stage and camera) His online concert really broke the prejudice about online concert.

- Agree. Others are so fine, but the distrust I have for Beyond Live is so big that... I was so worried. Since I heard Shim Jaewon took care of it and as soon as I watched the opening, I was like "There we go"



[Instiz] To be successful as a soloist coming from idol groups....

Instiz: To be successful as a soloist (coming from idol groups)....

OP: It's not just they need to be good at singing, but I think they need to be supported by performance and dancing to be successful so that their stage will be fun to watch and won't be boring. As I think ballads are somehow a fixed form, idols that are free or flexible from choosing title songs as well as general stages and concerts seem to be successful as soloists. Now the idols that come to mind are Taeyeon, GD, and Baekhyun.

- It's hard to be successful as soloists.

- I also think of those 3 and Chungha.

- Taeyeon, GD and Baekhyun are already successful when they are in the groups though. 

- Aren't Taeyeon and Baekhyun closer to easy-listening than performance? 
> OP: I think they are both.
> I think if it's performance, they have to do tough choreography from the beginning to the end. Of course, I don't say that they both can't dance! Both of them have great skills, but when I listen to their solo songs or watch their performances, I think it's more like easy listening than performance! Thus, I think they have more public friendly vibe.
> OP: Oh, you could think like that too! If you watch concert stages of those 3, there are a lot of performances, so I thought like that. I think my standard and yours are a little different.

- As soon as I saw the title, I thought that all they need is to be as much(good) as Baekhyun.

- But that is the basics though. Again it's not easy for multi-potential soloists to get good results...It's hard to get good results like GD, Baekhyun and Taeyeon.

- And they need to have talent to take control of the stage alone.
> Right. Performances of talented kids are just different.
> Not from learning, they need to be born with it.

- Those 3 are already the tops in their groups as well. Singing, rapping, skills are all top over top.

[Instiz] How do fans of other artists view Baekhyun's image?



Instiz: My bias' image under viewpoint of fans of other artists

OP: Baekhyunee

- Maltese.

- What more do I need to say?

- Genius Idol.

- Good to fans.

- Good performer.

- The standard of idol.

- Having many good OSTs.

- I'm a fan of another artist but I love him.

- UC Novel's male lead. Everyone lives having Byun Baekhyun in their hearts.

- All-rounder.

- Born-to-be idol.

- Cheerful.

- Overflowing fan love to the point I envy Eris.

- The standard of idol. In my opinion, he is the wall of all-round idol.

- Soft puppy.

- My ideal type. 

- The best idol. Kind of the textbook of idol. I'm really a fan of another artist.

- Stan-attractor. The standard of idol.

- He is so cute and he reminds me of KongDeok hamburger.

- A genius.

- A man of various charm.

- I'm a fan of another artist but Baekhyun is a legend.

- Unsurpassable wall of voice color. Thanks for singing.

- Soft puppy. KongDeok hamburger.

- A powerful idol. And I enjoy listening to 'Love Again'. I like his song a lot.

- First love of everyone.

- The man of Kim Yeoju.

- Mine.

- The standard of a heart-warming handsome man.

- Pureness.

- The best at singing, dancing, fan love. A perfect man.

- Puppy.

- Welsh Corgi.

- My husband.

- His name suits him so well. Because he is named Baekhyun, he has white and black image? Thus, he suits white and black hair better than anyone else. In my standard, Top 3 who suit white hair the most are Big Bang's TOP, Block B's .P.O. and Baekhyun-ssi. And his voice color is the top. I listen to his songs a lot, and I like his voice.

- He used to be a genius puppy. But ever since he sang Hannam-dong UN Village, his sophisticated image has become bigger.

- I was a former muggle, and when it hasn't been long since I got into idol world, I see his name a lot on the community, so I thought he is very popular. Then I saw his stage recommended by Algorithm, and I immediately understood why he is as so popular.

[Pann] Baekhyun is really very popular beyond my imagination

Pann: I think Baekhyun is really very popular beyond my imagination

OP: Rather than becoming fans of multiple idols, those who like Baekhyun always focus on Byun Baekhyun only. They don't even look at other idols or actors, but just love Byun Baekhyun. When talking about Baekhyun enlistment, their hearts are like being torn apart. My friend always says, "Byun Baekhyun is the real one. From personality, face, singing, fan love... There's nothing about him that isn't perfect." As I told my friend "You are daebak, how do you like him this much? It would be great if Baekhyun knows you are like this," she told me that not only her, but those who like Baekhyun are all like this. Baekhyun's fans aren't really all together, but they have one thing in common that they don't look at others artists other than Byun Baekhyun. As I used to be a fan of EXO who bought album until 3 years ago, I do know, but it's still amazing anyway. When I see how some people even say that they want to save his youth... in the future, I think the day where he joins G-Dragon as soloist and captivates males and the general public will come.

Comments:

- This is real... But the reason why we only know Baekhyun is because Baekhyun is so good to us. I'm going crazy. Byun Baekhyun is the best... Skills, personality, character, communication, fan love, there is nothing he lacks.

- The reason why we don't take our eyes off Baekhyun and only know Baekhyun is because... our genius puppy doesn't give us a chance to look at someone else... I love you, Byun Baekhyun...

- True. I been liking Baekhyun since the 2013, and I really don't look at anyone else except for Byun Baekhyun. I'm only like 'Baekhyun-ah, I love you'. But even though Baekhyun is sincere, Baekhyun's fans also sincerely cherish and like Baekhyun. Something like they tend to be crazier and like him more than other fans (of others). But Byun Baekhyun really drives people crazy. All Baekhyun's fans are all like this. 

- I think Baekhyun will still be popular after he comes back from army.

- Even muggle like Baekhyun a lot. He has voice color, skills, he is mischievous, fun and bright, but rather having friendships with other celebrities, he has few hometown friends and not long ago, his mosquito? response, under muggle's view, Baekhyun's response wasn't to show to reporters or the general public, but to reassure fans.

- He is now 30 but he is cute like this, how can I leave him ㅜㅋㅋ

- He is the one that blocks EXO's exit...

- You are my future Na Hoon A...

- The person I love the most told me to wait for him, how can I leave?

- My heart beats like an idiot when only I see him.

- It is a pity that I wasn't a fan of Baekhyun since his debut.

- Honestly, even if I pay attention to someone else for a moment, I'm always supposed to come back to Byun Baekhyun. Round and round, it's still Byun Baekhyun.

- Baekhyun makes me become a heartwarming person limited to only Byun Baekhyun... First of all, he is just so beautiful, isn't he? He is a kid who does well and works hard, hoping people to view him nicely. I've been a fan of him for 9 years, and the more I see him, the more I like him.

- From my point of view as a fan of another artist, he only looked like a mischievous, talented and popular member at first, but as time passes, it comes to light that he has a strong core fandom, and he's doing his job well. I think he is a cool man with reverse charm.

- Baekhyun's fans aren't fangirling or fanboying, they are just raising a puppy, they baby him and want to give him the best things in the world. 

- In addition, many ordinary people and muggles also have good impression on Baekhyun.

- I was a fan of EXO, but I'm becoming a fan of Baekhyun. No one is as sincere about his work and about his fans as he is. There have been many things happened and I was supposed to leave the fandom, but Baekhyun gave me the assurance that I can trust and support him.

- Because Baekhyun does well enough for us to do that, so we can do that.

- But seriously I think it's a capability of him to even maintain such a core fandom like this.

- I became a fan of Baekhyun again early last year. He's driving me crazy. Why did I even quit becoming his fan before... I'm so happy everyday. Baekhyun-ah, army...? I can wait for you. Before that... can I just go on your behalf?

- Stan the father of K-Pop!

- Honestly, I'm tired of the severe of the division in the fandom, and as my second bias got into a bad issue, I quitted being a fan, and now I'm stanning another male idol. But I just can't leave Byun Baekhyun. Now, I'm a fan of another artist, but I paid for KyoongCon and watched it... Only Byun Baekhyun, even when I left the fandom, I feel soft when I look at his pictures. It's just, uh fck... I don't know.

- My mom isn't interested in idols. Even for names of groups, she doesn't know anyone except for EXO and BTS. I don't know how she got to know Byun Baekhyun, but she likes Baekhyun a lot. I told my mom "There is someone named Byun Baekhyun in EXO," I thought of course she doesn't know Baekhyun, and when I brought it up, my mom said, "Uh Baekhyunee" and I remember I was in confusion. Before, my mom used to watch me playing KoKoBop MV on TV. I think perhaps Byun Baekhyun caught her eyes since then?

- I like him I love him seriously... even his mindset, he is such an amazing person.

- Except for streaming, I'm quite cost-effective in all aspects when it comes to fangirling, but I only open my wallet for Byun Baekhyun. Thus, no matter it's official goods, solo albums or a solo concert, I pay for them without realizing.

- Even when I quit becoming fan of others, I have been liking Baekhyun for years.

- I'm not worried about Baekhyun's enlistment at all. I'm not worried because Baekhyun gives me the confidence. Of course, I will be sad but I think I can wait for him well apart from being sad... You've been my only one for 8 years, Baekhyun-ah, I love you♡

- Frankly speaking, there is no end. Whether that is a singer or fans, all are sincere. Many fans have been watching only Baekhyun for a long time since his debut, and when I see other sunbaes from his company, other singers and celebrities and staff talking about him, I have no choice but to admit that he has a really good personality. Especially staff members talk a lot about him like "...as much as Baekhyun" or "...like Baekhyun"

- I became his fan around April last year and because of Corona, it's such a pity that I haven't been able to see him in person even just once.

- Even watching Baekhyun from afar, I can see that Baekhyun is good to fans. He doesn't fail his role as an idol and he doesn't have celebrity disease. When I heard he is still practicing singing, I felt that he is really amazing.

- I am a fan of another artist and I can prove this. But when I see how Baekhyun's fans fangirl or fanboy over him, I feel something like the depth of the way they like him and the feeling itself are different in a positive meaning. I think the singer and fans have a good relationship. He is a singer that has many years of experience, but when I look at how he is good at communicating and has a solid core fandom, I get to know what he has been doing.

- He doesn't give them a chance to get bored of him for real. I'm a fan of another artist, but I wonder if there is another idol like him will appear.

- Regardless of how popular he is, his core fandom is really strong. Looking on Twitter or communities, most of them became his fans since 2012-2014. There are so many of those who doesn't look at someone else, but only pay attention to Byun Baekhyun. This is also my first time being a fan for this long, I thought it would be bored to become his fan for a long time, but I have never been bored at all.

- Agree. My bias communicates a lot as well, but I'm surprised every time there are posts about Baekhyun's communication on Pann.

- My older sister is the one who isn't interested in idols at all, but the only idol that she has been a fan of so far is Baekhyun. Every time I become a fan of an idol, they commit a crime, have problem with enlistment or run away to overseas. Honestly, I envy of her that she can focus on fangirling without any problems or trouble. I kinda want to settle down.

[Daum] Which lyrics that are like an obsessive crazy male lead the most in Baekhyun's 'Love Again' ?

Daum: ~Tell me that you won't leave me~, Baekhyun's 'Love Again' which lyrics that are like an obsessive crazy male lead the most?


To the lover who says love me but leaves me, to whom I can't understand and can't let go of, I can't understand.

The lyrics that are like from an obsessive crazy male lead the most?


1. 
Please tell me once again
Tell me that you love me like that day


2.
I couldn't believe it, everything about you
Like looking in the mirror
We were so alike


3. 
The beautiful lips that used to speak of love,
Now they don't say a word, as if locked



4.
Deep in my heart, I could not understand why?
You say you love me, but why do you try to run away


5. 
Our love is like a race, it can't be stopped, babe
If you leave now, you won’t come back


6.
Don't leave me alone baby
Just stay for the night baby
Say you won't leave me


7.
I will put back
Everything, I still love you
I'm completely filled only by you
Like a balloon
Crowded with memories
I'm still the same

[Pann] Fans of other artists react to Baekhyun's online concert

Pann: The response on Baekhyun's online concert yesterday (Real-time trending article)

OP: I searched 'online concert' and 'on-con' on Twitter and brought here only tweets from fans of other artists.

Woah communication comes out well. It is an online concert, but it is an bidirectional concert.

But it really shows how diligently he has prepared KyoongCon. I'm envious, so envious.

Baekhyun forms the genealogy of online concert.

The production of the ending that can be done because it is an online concert... I was so so shocked and I was in awe. It was likely the model as well as the textbook of online concert. His online concert isn't a substitute for an offline concert, but it was the stage where you could see all the possibilities of online concert itself. 

He did the solo concert by himself but it wasn't boring. And I miss it.

As expected of Baekhyun...you are Na Hoon A of our generation.

It is so sad that an offline concert couldn't be done. Right? well, his Beyond Live isn't just the role of relaying (an offline concert), but he showed the possibilities that only online concert can do. Daebak. That is smart.

Byun Baekhyun's concert is really so good. It was the best ever among Beyond live concerts I have seen and I was so satisfied... 

Even the mood of watching him leaving work was included... the best Beyond live concert.

Baekhyun is really daebak. It was jaw-dropping and I was speechless.

As someone said ~Look, he has to be greedy (for the quality) to come out that much~... isn't it the quality that comes out when you feed the company?

It isn't that he just showed the performances that were performed before online, but he thought about fans who watch the performances for the tracks performed for the first time through a cell phone or computer at home, so it was really nice to feel that he planned the stage in detail. It is really an on-tact concert.

Additional comments from fans of other artists from the comment section:

Only this person... it would be great if his youth was eternal. 

Byun Baekhyun, honestly let's hold solo concert at KBS like Na Hoon A.

*Knocking* Hello sunbaenim, how many lungs do you have?

The devotion of him when he makes choreography for songs that don't have choreography. So it is that he doesn't do it, not that he cannot do it.

Woah he did that at the place where there wasn't even the audience. The next Na Hoon A is you.

As expected the sunbaenim that sold 1 million copies alone is different.

He captivated NCTzen's attention too.

Please make him not to enlist. Someone help please!

This is from a person who have watched Beyond Live for 7 times. Make sure you buy Baekhyun's Beyond live vod to watch.

NCTzens...you guys watch this all together...

This was more fun than that certain online concert...

No but our sons also did Beyond Live and I was sitting motionlessly watching, but when sunbaenim was talking, I was waving my hands. He is such an amazing person. I was really waving like I was possessed.

It hasn't been an hour but he has been doing all the insane songs...

Oh, Baekhyun...he is really on a different level. I heard that he is really good at talking at concerts, right? But because this is teleconnection, so it's difficult to response to each other. But when he said "Is it right, everyone? and I heard everyone saying "Yesss"...it was the first time I felt the two-way communication in Beyond Live.

I was satisfied with the concert that I bought his candle.

Best purchase in 2020: Just Dance 2021
Best purchase in 2021: Byun-beoji's concert
(t/n: Byun-beoji/ Byun abeoji/father: some korean k-pop fans call him Father of K-pop, the origin of this nickname mostly came from that he used to refer himself as father to Eris)

Need to make this concert the Bible of Beyond Live.

The ending was insane. Is it really the same Beyond Live? I cannot say anything except for "Awesome". King Baekhyun. I'm just lying down because I was so shocked.

The best thing I have done after entering this year:
Watching Byun Baekhyun's online concert.

OP: Not only EXO fans but the responses from fans of other artists for this online concert are also so good that I brought some here. The response that I'm proud the most is that they said (his concert) went beyond showing offline stage as online, and he did the stage that only can be done with online concert. I was sad that it wasn't offline, but it was also good because it was online. I'm really proud of Baekhyun.

Comments:

- It's not the best online concert ever, it's just the best concert ever. Baekhyun supposed to hold his first solo concert at KSPO Dome as an offline concert, but corona suddenly became more serious and he changed into online concert. It would be a lie if I said I wasn't disappointed and sad because of that, but as soon as I watched the concert, the feeling of sadness and disappointment disappeared. The quality was so good that I don't feel pity at all now. Baekhyun is rewriting the history of online concert again... And I'm really looking forward to Baekhyun's offline concert. He did an online concert like this, but if he really does an offline concert after he comes back from the army, I think he can show beyond what I can imagine.
> If it was an offline concert at KSPO Dome, the ticketing would have been fierce as much as the EXO's concert level. My friend who is a fan of another artist also wants to go to Baekhyun's concert, so they are waiting.
> So he was supposed to do a solo concert in KSPO Dome...? He is like the best-ever character/artist. It is the power that is hard to appear again in idol world.

- Yesterday, I watched a bit of him rapping to 'The Roots', and I thought if this person even does rapping, he will really become the unsurpassable wall.

- For real... When Baekhyun was singing 'Candy', I could hear all the clapping sound. Live singing proven. He's amazing.

- I'm a fan of another artist. My friend is a fan of NCT , and we watched SM's concert together on YouTube. When I watched Baekhyun, I became really curious about his concert aside from his music show. So I paid for it and watched it, and I really don't regret it at all. I can see why he has so many fans even thought it has been many years since he debuted. My most favorite song was 'UN Village', but this time, I think that Japanese song and 'Amusement Park' are really good!

- Seriously any broadcaster quickly sign a contract with him. Many people have already watched it, but it gave me the feeling like I'm the only one that couldn't watch it. He is like a human with 4 lungs. It is the combination of rare and precious skills and excellent performances.

- The concert still lingers in my head. It hasn't gone. It was so satisfied to watch.

- Baekhyun is awesome. He sings so well.

- You can't do a concert like this just because you are greedy. To make a concert like this possible, you have to be talented at Baekhyun's level where you have good singing, dancing, and live singing skills like Baekhyun. If you aren't talented but only greedy, you are already screwed in the first place... in conclusion, the concert was possible because it is Baekhyun.

- ..But it was really fcking insane.

- Even though I left the fandom, I bought and watched the concert and isn't he even more incredible? It feels like he is getting recognized with his music... The feeling is just so good...?

- I thought it was the best production ever. And 'Underwater' is honestly legendary.

- 'Psycho' Baekhyun.

- Even without fanchant, it was so perfect. From live singing skills, dancing, piano, VCR acting, to two-way communication, it feels like he showed that this is Byun Baekhyun? I was like the only pity part is that it wasn't offline apart from hairstyle, makeup and styling to the stage quality, but the concert is to the level that I can't even say that anymore (feel pity anymore).

- Even as a fan of female idol who has never seen him, I have to acknowledge Baekhyun. He sings well and communicates well, too.

- People who didn't watch won't know. It was really fcking awesome.

- It was the best ever online concert.

- If you look at Baekhyun, you can see why his fans haven't left him and still like him after years. I have never thought of anyone other than Baekhyun when I think of a favorite singer of everyone aside from their bias. I really listen to all Baekhyun's OSTs. I like him because he's good at his job.

- It was amazing that this is the first time I saw many fans of other artists paid for concert of another artist.

- I'm a fan of another artist, but my bias didn't have a special schedule, so my wallet wasn't emptied out. Baekhyun is a singer who I have a good impression on, and from my point of view, the price wasn't expensive, so I paid for it. I almost fell for him easily. He plays the piano really well, and I keep listening to 'Psycho' and 'Young'. They are my favorite.

- He is like having 56 lungs... he sings so well. His vocalization is fcking awesome.

- When I look at Baekhyun, I feel that they need to be good at their job to last long.

- I'm a fan of another artist but I like Baekhyun so fcking much. I enjoy variety shows that he appeared on. I like him even more because he is also good at singing. It's like a win-win.

- I'm a fan of a hoobae group. Anyone shares VOD? I love Baekhyun's songs and also the person himself so much that I'm even more curious after reading this post. It's hard to find someone whose first love isn't Baekhyun among my peers.

- If it was offline concert, it would be impossible to be alive in the reality. It was an online concert but it's lingering in my head this much, if I watched it in person, I would suffer from Baekhyun for 6 months.

- Seriously I hope he can go for a long time... I want to continue listening to his songs.

- No but he is really good at singing live. He did so well to the point I was wondering if it was digital version.

- For me, the 'Psycho' lingering feeling was insane. I want to watch VOD quickly.

- Seriously I didn't know that an online concert would linger in my head this much... I was like I just wanted to enjoy it, but I was surprised that the emptiness remained after the concert.

- Woah I like SuperM so I shared account for KyoongCon. I'm a winner. I feel like I'm the lotto winner.

- 'Candy' and 'Poppin' stage is daebak. The CG is totally charming and cute.

- I saw on Twitter and someone said he showed the standard or the precedent of online concert. That's true.

- The further Baekhyun goes, the better his singing improves.. he is the genius of live singing.

- 'Psycho' is legendary. It still lingers in my head.

- I'm so fcking jealous. Our online concert was half-assed. I wanted to watch Kyoongcon even though I'm a fan of another artist. I'll buy it when VOD is up.

- But it's really incredible of him to proficiently fulfill a concert by himself. It isn't easy to carve out a niche as a soloist coming out from a group..

- He let us know that 'Psycho' in Elyxion dot concert was a mild flavor in comparison. This was totally a fire spicy favor 'Psycho'.

- Please give me the VOD quickly. Since yesterday, I've been dying because of the lingering feelings... And the proof that his online concert was awesome is that there are many people like me who still can't get rid of those lingering feelings all over the place in my timeline as well as in communities.

- It was the best ever online concert... I wondered how better he would do if it was offline.

- I think Baekhyun was really born to be a celebrity. Even if he wasn't a celebrity, he would still be the talk of the town. He knows his flaw that no one other than him knows and keeps going and getting lessons, and his heart of wanting to show that to people who like him is big, and it is never easy to show your own flaws to people who likes you. But again even if you're humble, as time passes, you might have been tired of criticism and verbal attacks with feeling of inferiority, but he is just an incredible person in various ways.

- I hope Baekhyun becomes Na Hoon A of our generation. He is good at his job and he's so witty. I think it's going to be fun at his dinner show. (I can imagine when he says) ~Everyone, I have prepared sweet jelly of red beans for the refreshments today. I'll gift you a time as sweet as that sweet jelly of red beans. Next song is 'Candy'~ he would tear the stage with his powerful voice and blow a kiss with his hands.
(t/n: The origin meaning of dinner show is a show where singers who are usually veteran singers or trot singers have a dinner and performs after the dinner. The shows are usually held in special occasions like Christmas, the end of the year or Mother's Day and held in hotel restaurants or theater-style restaurants. The audience for these shows are mostly seniors. On the day of Baekhyun's concert, kfans also trended the hashtag "'Dinner show with Baekhyun' or something like that I don't remember exactly)

- I was emotional when he played piano and singing 'My Answer'...and I felt like his voice was more solid that I thought I was going crazy.

- But seriously did the dancers breathe on his behalf? His live singing is fcking good.

- It was the show that I want to pay more.

- Many male idols choose him as their role model for a reason.

- It was the show that was worth money.

- I have watched all the online concert and his concert is like as hard as running an offline concert. The lingering feeling is insane and I want to watch it again.

- I recently watched one of another artist and I was really disappointed. Seriously I guess they need to be greedy (to do such a concert like his).

- For the first time in my life, I thought about how I hope a singer to do music for a long time. Before, I thought all those words on TV were just lip service.
