Dear U Bubble Announces Launch of Exclusive App for EXO Baekhyun, Xiumin
On February 13, the fan community platform Dear U Bubble posted a notice on its official app stating EXO Baekhyun and Xiumin's discontinuation of their Lysn's Bubble service.
Despite this, a piece of good news was eventually brought to Eris when the platform hinted at the release of an exclusive new app to continue comfortable communication with the artists.
According to the announcement, the Bubble service for Baekhyun and Xiumin will end at noon on February 29th.
From then on, the two members will be excluded from the artist selection screen in Dear U Bubble, and the emoticons created for the members can't be downloaded in the meantime either.
However, Eris don't have to fret since all existing conversations from the chat rooms will not disappear, unless the subscriber leaves the chat room, and cancels or deletes their accounts themselves.
