EXO member Lay has a lot on his plate when it comes to solo activities, including promotions, a Chinese movie, and a Chinese reality-variety show called "Go Fighting," and this has displeased Korean EXO fans. They accused him of overlooking the group's interest and concentrating on his own personal and promotional activities in China. A recent report suggested that his group members do not share the same sentiment and Lay has their full support when it comes to pursuing outside interests.

At a recent fan meeting, Lay reportedly shared how another EXO member Baekhyun showed his support for him through sweet words. Lay got late in greeting Baekhyun on his birthday because of time confusion. He had planned to wish him right at midnight, but when he returned to Korea from China, he got confused about the time and thus could not wish him at that hour as planned.
When Lay wished Baekhyun later and said sorry to him, the latter said, as quoted by K Pop Starz, "Hyung (brother), it's been tiring for you recently right? It's okay, Fighting! This is what hyung chose to do, so hyung has all of our support." Lay also said that he shares a good equation with all the EXO members.
Posts criticizing Lay for concentrating on solo activities were first seen on Pann, a Korean Web site that is similar to Reddit. He was apparently accused of earning from both solo and group activities. The backlash probably started when Lay began paperwork for his Chinese agency Zhang Yixing Workshop. Later SM Entertainment's representative confirmed the setting of Lay's agency in China. Fans were not happy to learn about this development.
Meanwhile, it has not only been performance and promotional activity time for Lay. This month, he has already checked into the hospital twice. At first, he reportedly received treatment after suffering a neck injury during the filming of "Go Fighting." And later, just before his fan meeting, he had to visit the hospital for his chronic waist injury.
