  • Ahn Yujin reveals the touching reason she bought her dad a Mercedes-Benz

    Ahn Yujin of IVE recently shared an incredibly sweet story about giving her father a special gift, all thanks to her experiences on a variety show.

    On May 2, Ahn Yujin appeared on the YouTube channel Channel Fifteen Night during a spring outing with PD Na Young Seok, which was part of the Earth Arcade variety show. During the outing, Ahn Yujin grabbed attention when she got into a Mercedes-Benz car. PD Na Young Seok made a lighthearted comment, saying, "My wife also drives a Mercedes. This one is just the chubbier version of that car."

    It turns out that Ahn Yujin had recently passed her driving test and had her first driving experience on the Earth Arcade spin-off Jiraki’s Ttitti Bang Bang. In a later episode of Earth Arcade 3, she even took first place in a parking challenge, which helped boost her popularity even more.

    Her driving scenes, especially in the Mercedes-Benz, grabbed the spotlight, with Na PD revealing that the car brand reached out to the show afterward.

    Ahn Yujin then shared an emotional story: "My father watched that episode and said he wanted to drive the same model of car," she said. "So, I changed his car for him. A Mercedes!" Her heartfelt gesture left the other cast members amazed.

    Born in 2003, Ahn Yujin has been making waves as the leader of IVE, one of the most popular K-pop groups. Known for her stunning looks, powerful vocals, impressive performances, and versatile variety skills, she continues to prove herself as an all-around idol with extraordinary talent.
