On September 5th, Baekhyun appeared as a guest on the YouTube channel “Jjan-han hyung Shin Dong-yup” in the show “Donor-hyeong”.
During the show, Shin Dong-yup asked, “Are you affectionate towards your family?” Baekhyun replied, “I used to be very affectionate when I was younger, but after I hit puberty, I became less so.“
Baekhyun added, “Rather than being affectionate, I feel like now I can do more for them in a realistic way. I think showing that I can take care of them like a breadwinner might give them more confidence about their son“.
To this, Shin Dong-yup jokingly responded, “If you are active in your career and only show affection without giving any gifts, that would make you quite ungrateful.“
Then, when asked, “What kind of gifts have you given to your parents?“, Baekhyun answered, “First of all, I bought them a house, and I regularly replace their car. I also gave them all my earnings from 3 years of settlement.“
He continued, “My parents were very frugal, saving for the sake of their children. I believe it is right to give more to them when the child they raised so well succeeds,” expressing his deep affection for his family.
Regarding the statement, “Giving them three years’ worth of earnings is not an easy thing to do,” Baekhyun responded, “Don’t you sometimes want to buy a car or a watch? But it is meaningless to me. I have a busy schedule, so there is no time to drive a car or wear a watch. Since it is useless to me, I gave it to my parents instead.“
He further added, “I live receiving respect and treatment, but who is there to treat my parents well? It is only their children.” This statement earned admiration from the audience.
