Chanyeol of EXO, Wendy of Red Velvet and Leeteuk of Super Junior communicated with fans on their way to the airport in a live broadcast held via Naver’s V app Thursday.

The three stars were heading to the airport for the “SMTown Live World Tour” concert in Dubai set to be held on Friday at Autism Rocks Arena.

In the broadcast, Chanyeol revealed that he will sing “Stay With Me,” from tvN’s 2016 hit drama “Guardian: The Lonely and Great God,” with Wendy at the Dubai concert.

“Director Shim Jae-won, who directs the SMTown concert, said he personally likes this song so much and suggested to perform this song during this concert,” Chanyeol said.

“I have collaborated with other artists, but I told him that I thought Wendy’s voice would go well with the track,” he said. He originally collaborated with Punch for the track.

“It’s a really good song and I’m glad that I can perform with him,” Wendy said.

Project boy band YDPP finally made its debut with the single “Love It Live It” on Thursday.

The group consists of four contestants from the second season of Mnet K-pop competition “Produce 101”: Lim Young-min and Kim Dong-hyun of MXM and Jeong Se-woon and Lee Kwang-hyun.

In a live broadcast ahead of the release held via Naver’s V app, the bandmates shared their thoughts about starting group activities.

“We don’t have a leader (of the group),” Lim said. Jeong disagreed, however: “Don’t we have a leader? Our fans are our leader.”

“We don’t have a leader as the project group is for us to enjoy and help each other but we will become a team which works hard to develop,” Lim said.

While Lim and Kim made their debut with MXM and Jeong made his debut as a solo artist, it was a complete debut for Lee.

“It was my first time shooting for an album cover. I had sweaty hands. My palms are even sweating now,” Lee said.

“Though it’s your first time, you did really well,” Lim said.

Jannabi

Jannabi will perform during the Blue Spring Festival at Nanji Hangang Park from May 12-13 and Greenplugged Seoul Festival on May 20.
