Comedian Lee Jinho drew attention for highlighting THIS "charm point" of ITZY Chaeryeong that makes her the "most attractive."
On June 18, Episode 2 of the web show, "Full-Belly Chaeryeong, Hanging Out With a Friend" (Chae-Bae-Bul), premiered on the official YouTube channel, Merry Go Round.
On this day, the MC Chaeryeong welcomed comedian Lee Jinho whom she became acquainted with after meeting in various variety programs including, "Knowing Brothers."
At the start of the show, they showcased their funny chemistry, with the comedian handing the gift he personally bought for the female idol.
He joked:
"I didn't want to come empty-handed, so I brought you a gift. I downloaded the latest songs illegally and burned them for you."
Perplexed, the young idol and rookie MC awkwardly said thanks and seeing this reaction, the veteran host comforted her by telling her to relax and just be comfortable.

To ease her nervousness, Lee Jinho gave her an encouraging message and admired her natural personality, emphasizing it as her "charm point" that makes her most attractive.
"I've seen you around a lot. We met on 'Knowing Bros' too and in that 'Idol Diction Contest' before, you were so good, just do the same here.
I think that you are really charming. On the TV entertainment shows, you don't pretend to be cute, which makes you even more attractive."
He then continued:
"But Chaeryeong, you have a unique character. You're kind of quirky, right? You have a bit of a quirky personality."
While the idol denied it, Chaeryeong proved this side when she blatantly asked Jinho if he was wearing a wig, drawing laughter from the set.
The show which was only filled with waves of laughter finished in just about 15 minutes and in the last part, Chaeryeong was touched by the letter penned by Lee Jinho where he said:
"Chaeryeong, thank you so much for inviting me today. Don't worry about what others think, do what you want to do."
On the other hand, Chaeryeong, who belongs to the girl group ITZY is currently expanding its influence around the world with its second world tour, "BORN TO BE."
Earlier in June, they visited Seattle, Oakland, Los Angeles, Sugarland, Irving, Atlanta and Fairfax as part of its American tour leg, and experienced sold-out concerts. Their tour will continue on June 23 in Newark, Chicago (June 26) and Toronto on June 28th & 29th.
In July and August then, the girl group will also continue its Asian tour leg in Taipei, Manila, and Hong Kong after Tokyo and Osaka in May, with the aim of completing 32 concerts in 28 regions around the world.
