“We are up all day today, or ‘intoxicated’ by a rush of messages from people celebrating our birthday,” DK said during the 30-minute broadcast.

“This birthday felt special. Surprisingly many people wished me a happy birthday,” Vernon said.

The duo also talked about how lucky they were to have met each other through Seventeen.

“To be born on the same day with Vernon is great. We met (through Seventeen) and it turned out we have the same birthday. What a blessing this is,” DK said.
