EXO’s Lay And Suho Reunite With A Rare Interaction

They seem to still be close.

EXO‘s Lay has not been promoting with the group since 2017, but he has remained a part of the team. Although he left SM Entertainment, he remains close with the members, even sending them off to the military.

In an extremely rare public moment, Suho and Lay interacted during a live stream. Suho hosted a stream when Lay tuned in. Suho then saw Lay’s entry and greeted him, doing EXO’s signature greeting.

CRYING 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭yixing joined the LIVE

Although Lay stopped promoting as part of the group, he still manages to stay close with the members. He also occasionally appears via video or calls at fanmeetings and the like. Looks like EXO’s bond is still going strong even in 2024!
