EXO Chanyeol got our weeb hearts squealing after he dressed up as Satoru Gojo during his latest solo event.
The newly-debuted solo artist met with his fans through a fan-signing on September 24. Immediately after, various clips of Chanyeol made rounds on social media, showing him slipping into a Satoru Gojo shirt and rounded glasses.
His light blonde hair also helped in the dressing-up, considering that the Jujutsu Kaisen character is also popular for his blinding white hair.

Chanyeol truly jazzed up the occasion by clothing himself as "The Honored One," and even did his notorious crossed-fingers pose while uttering "Ryōiki Tenkai" ("Domain Expansion").
As predicted, plenty of fan-edits of Chanyeol and Gojo propagated online, especially on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), with some editors even using Usher's "Daddy's Home," EXO's "Obsession," and Megan Thee Stallion's "Otaku Hot Girl" as the BGM.
EXO-Ls (EXO fandom) also claimed that the K-pop star is the perfect personification of the JJK character.

It turns out that it wasn't just Satoru Gojo whom Chanyeol dressed up as, but also Naruto Uzumaki.
In his now-viral photo, the idol is seen doing the titular character's Shadow Clone Jutsu hand sign—proving that just like a plethora of us, Chanyeol is also a weeb.

Meanwhile, EXO Chanyeol made his much-anticipated solo debut on August 28 with his album "Black Out."
The title song of the same name was unveiled on the same day, featuring a pop rock tune, fast tempo beats, and a melancholic synth melody that captures heartbreak and nostalgia.
