Upon hearing it, he commented, "You indeed have the characteristics of an INFP," and added, "Honestly, I don't know if I can say this, but I don't really like INFP people."
Baek Yerin showed a shocked expression and simply replied, "Oh, I see." JUSTHIS continued to make her feel embarrassed by saying, "If you go in the MBTI community, you will see people call INFP as XFP (a rude expression)."
