ITZY Yeji Recalls Time a Passerby in Her Hometown Thought She Looked Like ITZY Yeji
Back on January 22, ITZY's leader and main dancer Yeji took to the popular live streaming platform Naver V LIVE to have a solo live broadcast and casual chat with fans - MIDZY.
In the live broadcast, Yeji can be seen broadcasting back at her hometown of Jeonju in Jeollabuk-do to spend time with her family, while all of the members of ITZY take a much-needed vacation.
At this time, Yeji was broadcasting from the living room of her family home, while being accompanied with her precious dog Hongsam.
While having a casual chat with fans and keeping them up to date with some of the latest happenings, the "Mafia In The Morning" songstress then began recalling hilarious moment that happened to her while she was in downtown Jeonju a few days ago.
The ITZY member began by saying that she didn't think anyone would recognize her given her new hairdo. I didn't think that anyone would have recognized me because I had cut my hair short, and that I didn't tell anybody about that," Yeji said.
She then talked about her hilarious encounter with a passerby, saying, "But when I was in downtown Jeonju, this one person on the street said to me, 'Oh, you look so much like ITZY's Yeji!'"

She then explained what happened after that, saying, "When the person said that I looked like ITZY's Yeji, I was like, 'Really? Thank you!'"
