A simple yet gentlemanly gesture by Lee Jun Young at the 2025 Music Bank Global Festival in JAPAN has sent fans into a frenzy—especially when it involved none other than IVE’s Jang Wonyoung.
As the two stars co-hosted the outdoor music festival on December 13 and 14, a light drizzle began to fall. Without hesitation, Lee Jun Young lifted his cue card high above Jang Wonyoung’s head to shield her from the rain. The scene, delicate and completely contact-free, looked straight out of a romantic K-drama—so much so that fans flooded Korean forums with reactions like “I want to marry Lee Jun Young” and “He’s breaking the rules!”
In the video captured by fans, Wonyoung can be seen smiling sweetly—some netizens even joked, “Even Wonyoung looked smitten.”
This isn’t the first time Lee Jun Young’s subtle acts of chivalry have gone viral. At a past ACON event, he was seen gently preparing to assist Shuhua (G)I-DLE as she navigated stairs in heels, carefully avoiding any physical contact but clearly ready to catch her if needed.
Similarly, during a live stage with comedian Jang Do Yeon, when she needed to adjust her dress, Jun Young discreetly opened his suit jacket to shield her from the crowd. And at a drama press event with Jung Eunji, he stepped in front of her when her shoe strap broke, offering cover without a second thought.
Fans have praised him for treating all female colleagues with the same respectful care, calling him “a walking green flag.”
The now-iconic rain scene with Jang Wonyoung continues to circulate online, with many calling it one of the most romantic moments of 2025 K-pop. It’s official: Lee Jun Young isn’t just charming on-screen—he’s winning hearts with real-life gentleman energy.
