One of the best leaders in K-Pop, a powerhouse of talent, and an ace in his own right, Stray Kids' Bang Chan is celebrating his 26th birthday today, October 3, and the whole world is celebrating this lovely day with him. You know who else is celebrating Bang Chan's birthday? Hollywood superstar and certified STAY Ryan Reynolds!

Bang Chan and Ryan Reynolds go way back. At this point, they are pretty much besties! What started with Ryan's appreciation of Stray Kids' "Deadpool"-themed performance on "KINGDOM: LEGENDARY WAR", led to the most iconic friendship of modern times. A big part of this friendship has been shared with fans through Ryan Reynolds' production/digital marketing agency Maximum Effort. Fun Fact: Maximum Effort is "located" in stayville on their X account!

Like Bang Chan's previous birthday, Maximum Effort wished the idol on his birthday this year as well, with yet another masterpiece of an edit. This time, it featured a clip from the actor's film "Woman in Gold", where Ryan is seen looking up "TWICE "Like OOH-AHH"" in utter seriousness, with the camera zooming in on Bang Chan's appearance. This was followed by another clip of Bang Chan on "Idol Radio", with the caption "Happy Birthday Bang Chan!" on top.

The edit was instantly STAY-approved as they commended the hilarious clip. The pun in his post, which said, "You only turn 26 once. Or is it Twice? Happy Birthday, Bang Chan! #TwentySixHugsForBangChan" was also well appreciated, as was the hashtag!

Fans wondered how the editor found those particular clips of Bang Chan, admitting that they must be a real STAY to be able to find those. We adore this friendship between Bang Chan and Ryan Reynolds and hope it lasts forever!

The Kpopmap Team wishes Bang Chan a fantastic 26th birthday!
