After nine months of no updates, Baekhyun has surprised fans with a photo of himself - a silhouette of himself against a scenic backdrop in Spain, where his Pathcode teaser video was shot. The 22-year old South Korean idol captioned his photo, "WE ARE ____," encouraging fans to complete the sentence of EXO's slogan "We are one."

Supporters of the group have then welcomed him back in said SNS platform while others have left warm comments and words of support for Baekhyun, who is also one of EXO's main vocalists.

The previous month, Baekhyun was briefly spotted on Instagram and followed back his fellow EXO members after going on an unfollowing spree. His girlfriend, Taeyeon, also did the same late last year which led to speculations that the two were facing a rough patch in their relationship.

Other netizens have speculated that both Baekhyun and Taeyeon quit using their Instagram accounts since the announcement of their relationship has not been positively welcomed by their followers.

On the one hand, it said that Baekhyun is about to reach a new mile stone after garnering more than 3 million followers on Instagram.
