EXO’s Baekhyun Unveils Dreamy Teaser Film for ‘Essence of Reverie’

EXO’s Baekhyun is stepping into a new era with a mesmerizing return set to captivate fans across the globe. On June 7, Baekhyun’s agency INB100 unveiled the ‘Reverie’ version concept film for his fifth mini album, Essence of Reverie, igniting anticipation with vivid, dream-like visuals.

The teaser opens with a symbolic face-off between two versions of Baekhyun—an artistic continuation of the previously released ‘Essence’ version visuals. A retro game-inspired soundtrack underscores a kaleidoscope of colorful scenes, transitioning into a whimsical dreamscape filled with clouds and balloons. These elements perfectly encapsulate the surreal theme behind the ‘Reverie’ concept.

Essence of Reverie delves into themes of reality and fantasy, using dual concepts to explore Baekhyun’s identity as an artist. This project aims to reaffirm the essence of who he is as a musician while charting the path for his evolving artistic vision.

Following the album’s release, Baekhyun will also embark on his first-ever solo world tour, over a decade after debuting. The Reverie tour marks another milestone in his expanding career, further exciting fans around the world.
