EXO-L Proclaims Their Love For EXO With Giant Times Square Billboards On Their 5th Anniversary
EXO fans are getting ready to celebrate EXO's fifth anniversary in a big way. EXO Baidu Bar is expected to break out the most expensive gift any fandom has ever gifted a K-pop group by renting the Times Square billboard on April 8.
According to All Kpop, EXO Baidu Bar has announced on its site the plans to mark the boys' milestone fifth anniversary with a message to the world. According to the post of the China-based fan group, they will be renting the Reuters Billboard in the corner of 42nd and 7th Avenue on April 8.
"On this meaningful anniversary, we hope that we can share this happiness with more EXO-Ls and let the world know our greatest and beloved EXO," their message read. "In the next five years, ten years or more, we will be with EXO always."
According to a post by Soompi, a total of 11 billboards will feature "EXO 5th Anniversary" as well as photos of EXO members. The billboards will feature congratulatory messages in different languages including English, Chinese and Korean to show the love from EXO-Ls from all over the world.
The initiative coming from Chinese fans speaks volumes about the fans' love for EXO, especially at a time that Korean content is currently being banned in China because of a defense policy that Korea has entered into with the United States. Still, this is not the first time that fans chose to show their love for EXO members using the Times Square Billboard as it previously featured birthday greetings for Chanyeol and Lay and even global fashion icon Sehun.
EXO is currently busy preparing for the encore performance of the "EXO PLANET - The EXO'rDIUM" concert tour. The encore will be a two-night event on May 27 and 28 at the Seoul Olympic Stadium.
