BABYMONSTER’s member Ahyeon is going viral for a small but deeply touching interaction with a fan. According to a fan account that’s been rapidly spreading online, the fan happened to meet Ahyeon while they were working part-time at a Korean BBQ restaurant. When the fan recognized her and shared that they were a fan, Ahyeon warmly responded and even asked for a handshake first.
The fan hesitated, explaining that their hands were dirty from working. They had been cleaning before coming to help with her payment, and felt it wasn’t appropriate to shake hands. Ahyeon’s response instantly melted hearts.
“Hands that got dirty from working aren’t dirty.”
With that, she reached out and shook the fan’s hand anyway.
Fan’s comment.
“What’s the real deal about Ahyeon is that when I was working in a KBBQ restaurant previously, Ahyeon and her father came in for a meal. I told her quietly as I rang up her bill that I was a fan, and she suggested we shake hands. I had been helping her with her bill after cleaning, so I told her that my hands were dirty and I probably couldn’t. She said that hands that got dirty from working aren’t dirty, and shook my hand. I was so touched.”
The simple yet thoughtful comment has struck a chord with netizens, many praising Ahyeon for her kindness, humility, and respect toward service workers and fans. As the story continues to circulate, many are saying it reflects the kind of genuine character that she is known for!
