EXO is renowned for its brotherhood. But did you know Lay once showed the ultimate bromance with his heartwarming gesture for bandmate D.O.? The latter was about to enlist in the military, and all of his bandmates got together to bid him farewell. However, Lay, who was in a different country for his tour, didn’t wanna waste a moment to spend some time before his bandmate’s enlistment. 

Back in 2019, Lay had his first solo tour, Grand Line, and during the month of July, he was in China, preparing for his concert. On the other hand, on July 1 of that year, D.O. enlisted for his mandatory military service. A viral video revealed Lay running across an airport in China to catch a flight to South Korea. He didn’t want to waste a second so that he could spend some time with his bandmate before he went away for 18 months. 

Fans didn’t expect him to be there to send D.O. off, but he surprised in the best possible way. If this isn’t friendship goals, we don’t know what is!
