On Sept. 21, Eris were left shocked and confused after finding out that the photos and videos uploaded to Baekhyun's Instagram account have all disappeared. He's been active on Instagram for quite some time, so a lot of content is gone.

Hacking of celebrities' social media accounts has occurred several times. In the past few weeks, IVE Jang Wonyoung's Instagram account was hacked, and it is believed that the same thing happened to BLACKPINK members' iCloud accounts.

Because of the recent hacking incidents, Eris couldn't help but worry that Baekhyun's Instagram account might also have been hacked.

SM Entertainment was soon contacted by media outlets for a response about the matter. The company then released a statement clarifying that Baekhyun isn't a victim of hacking. Rather, he had cleared his feed himself because he wanted to reorganize it after his military discharge.

The EXO member confirmed this in a recent tweet. He explained that he had a "sudden strong desire" to reorganize his Instagram feed. He also said that fans can anticipate his feed's new look next year.
