• Lee Yi Kyung gets huge love from Hong Kong fans while Joo Woo Jae is only known as Byeon Woo Seok’s friend

    Actor Lee Yi Kyung experienced just how popular he’s becoming — especially in Hong Kong — while Joo Woo Jae got teased for being known as someone else’s friend!

    On the May 10 episode of MBC’s variety show “Hangout with Yoo”, the cast — Lee Yi Kyung, Joo Woo Jae, Park Jin Joo, and Mijoo — continued their “Delivery Hangout – Hong Kong” special, where they personally delivered a gift to a couple who had been touched by the show’s previous episode.

    While exploring Hong Kong, the group stopped by a famous gelato shop and picked out ice cream based on their tastes. But when they stepped outside, they were surprised to see a crowd waiting for them.

    The staff explained, “They recognized Yi Kyung and waited.”

    A shocked Lee Yi Kyung asked, “How do they know me?” looking both confused and thrilled. Fans quickly lined up to take pictures with him, mentioning his role in the hit drama “Welcome to Waikiki.” Afterward, he proudly told the others, “They said they saw me in a drama!”

    And it didn’t stop there — even at a restaurant, a fan sitting nearby pointed him out and said, “I know that person. I saw him in a movie!”

    It turned out the fan had watched him in “Marry My Husband,” and even listed other roles he played. Touched by the recognition, Lee Yi Kyung replied, “You knew all that? Oh my god. That’s amazing.”

    But while Lee Yi Kyung was living his best celebrity life, things were a bit different for Joo Woo Jae. The same fan looked at him and said, “Now that I think about it… I know you. You’re Byeon Woo Seok’s best friend, right?”

    The moment made everyone burst into laughter. Lee Yi Kyung couldn’t help but tease, “They only know him as Byeon Woo Seok’s friend.”

    The fan quickly apologized, saying, “I’m really sorry… I don’t know your name,” which only added to the hilarity.

    Joo Woo Jae sighed and joked, “It’s one thing to be called Byun Woo Seok’s friend in Korea, but now it’s happening globally…”

    To wrap things up, Lee Yi Kyung showed his generous side by ringing the “golden bell” and saying, “I’ll pay for everyone here, including the fans,” earning cheers and praise from everyone at the restaurant.

    Talk about a trip full of laughs, love, and just a little bit of fame confusion!
