actually baekyun doesn't sound like "bacon" at all. bacon is pronounced "bay-kon" while the "baek" is more like "beck" and it's a rather soft sound. the "hyun" is a soft sound as well. and last time I checked there's no "h" in bacon.... kind of hard to write it out but I ranted about this in my voice meme and the difference is clear!

LMAO SORRY THIS IS ONE OF MY BIGGEST PET PEEVES AND ANNOYS ME TO DEATH AND PEOPLE NEED TO STOP SPREADING IT LIKE IT'S A FACT!! besides if anyone makes a comment like "I've never seen bacon be so hot before in my life" or "I want to marry bacon" I'm just like...... that's because he's not a piece of bacon HE'S A PERSON and if you wanna marry a piece of bacon, well that's fine by me but I am questioning your life choices.

.......lol I sound like a bitch rn but oh well. I just.... needed to voice this out loud haha

otherwise good job on the pimp post!! :) I skimmed through it bc I have no attention span to speak of but I applaud your effort.

I never thought his name actually sounded like bacon either, but it is such a funny joke that I just decided to roll (Like a buffalo) with it.

haha yeah I know people love that joke but I just don't want people believing the two actually sound the same or whatever

....though I think it's about time the bacon manips stop lol. they've gotten old it's time to learn how to use photoshop correctly! I can't even look through the baekhyun tag anymore

Hahahaha! So true - the worst is that bacon as an object is not easily photoshopped and not...often...photoshopped, ahaha. The tag takeover was pretty epic, though.

lmao they can actually take over the "bacon" tag as often as they want; I'd just like for the "baekhyun" tag to be clean lol XD

but I saw the china showcase/interview and I didn't hear bacon at all? but if there was a subbing mistake/misunderstanding I guess I understand. what I think was the person who subbed doesn't really understand korean at all so they couldn't pick it up on it - you have to listen carefully tbh

the main thing is I want is for people to understand the pronunciation is different though

that's pretty much how I say it too. but I heard the very slight "hyun" so yeah :x I admit it's pretty hard to catch in that clip!

I'm aware it's not going to stop lol. I just don't like it when people say baekhyun is pronounced like bacon like it's a fact. this isn't the first time I've seen it around which is why I finally decided to say something haha. even though I don't like it people can use it as long they know it's an exo fail joke and know his name doesn't actually sound like baekhyun. IDEK WHAT I'M SAYING ANYMORE LOL ...and I sound dumb for being worked up over this but yeah. |D I hope my point is clear?

Actually, the 'h' sound in Korean is kind of silent after a consonant, especially when speaking fast enough. So Baekhyun is pronounced like Baekyun, which sounds a bit like bacon I guess.

Tbh, I use Bacon because on the fly I can never remember how to spell Baekyun. I think this is possibly the first time I've spelled it correctly, lol.

Nope, you forgot the 'h'. Next time you'll get it right :D
