EXO And EXO-L Celebrate Their 8th Debut Anniversary

EXO and their fans EXO-L are showing their love on the group’s eighth anniversary!

EXO debuted on April 8, 2012, meaning the group is now eight years old. After midnight KST on their anniversary, fans sent the hashtag #우리의_청춘_시대는_엑소라고_부른다 (“Our youth is called EXO”) to the top of Twitter’s worldwide trends.

Shortly after midnight, Baekhyun tweeted with the hashtag and said, “Our youth is called EXO-L! I love you, EXO-L!!!!!!!!!”
