'The Celebrity' suggested wakeboarding to Chen, who said he'd like to try out watersports this summer. Despite his busy schedule, the EXO member readied himself for the water by doing squats and studying up on wakeboarding days beforehand. 

Before getting on the wakeboard for the first time, Chen stated, "I heard that beginners just fall into the water. To be honest, my goal for today is to stand up." He ended up surprising himself and the instructor when he got up on the first try. 

Chen added, "I feel like I can still hear the boat's engine and the wind hitting my ears. I didn't only enjoy the water today, but it was a day that I had my fill of nature, youth, and everything about those two things."
