27 Celebrities Who Have Shown Love For DAY6 And Their Music
Less than three years since their debut, DAY6 has already released 43 songs. All self-written, the band’s music boasts incredible quality and versatility, and as they say, there are people who have never listened to DAY6’s music, but there is no one who has listened to DAY6’s music only once.
Among the lovers of DAY6’s music are those of the group’s noticeably large celebrity fanbase, including both male and female idols, actors, and veteran musicians.
Check out just some of the many stars who have shown appreciation for DAY6’s music:
AOA’s Seolhyun
When Seolhyun called into her labelmate Lee Hong Ki’s radio show, he asked if she has a song request. She responded, “When I mention this song, I think I might get scolded by our agency. Our agency has bands, but I like a different band.”
Lee Hong Ki joked, “That’s alright. It’s not like you ever liked us anyway.”
She explained, “I really like DAY6,” and asked him to play their song “I Loved You.”
In this Instagram live she did later on in the year, she played “I Loved You” in the car and began singing along as she shared, “This is my song recommendation.” She added regarding a fan comment, “[This comment] says the whole world knows I like DAY6.”
