5+ Accidental Instagram Follows That Need To Become Real Friendships
In the high-speed world of K-Pop, social media is one of the few ways idols can interact with their fans and, at times, even each other. But sometimes, those interactions lead to hilariously unexpected connections. Let’s talk about the times when K-Pop stars accidentally followed each other or their fan pages — and why we think these happy accidents should blossom into real friendships!
1. Red Velvet’s Wendy & ITZY’s Yeji
The ‘accidental following’ that sparked this list was Wendy’s mishap with a Yeji fan page. We bet Wendy’s heart skipped a beat when she realized she was fangirling out in the open! Yet, we can’t help but think that these vocalists would create a sweet harmony both on and off stage. Imagine them sharing their experiences, maybe even collaborating on a track — we’d definitely be here for it!

2. NCT’s Jeno & TWICE’s Mina
Who could forget when NCT’s Jeno accidentally hit that follow button on TWICE’s Mina’s Instagram account? Fans were quick to point out the follow, and Jeno, in embarrassment, unfollowed quickly. But hold on a second! With their shared love for dancing, they could learn a lot from each other. Plus, their quiet and thoughtful personalities might just make a perfect match!
Jeno accidentally followed mina on Instagram is just so cute, don't make them feel anxious because they followed someone on IG and IF he's stalking mina, that's normal because Twice is popular, everyone loves twice. toxic fans don't. Why do some people make a big deal about it😭

3. (G)I-DLE’s Soyeon & LE SSERAFIM’s Sakura
Next up is Soyeon’s unexpected follow of Sakura’s Instagram account. The leader and main rapper of (G)I-DLE could definitely learn a thing or two from Sakura’s experiences in the industry. Plus, their strong, charismatic stage presence would undoubtedly make them a dynamic duo. We’d love to see this friendship bloom!

4. LOONA’s Vivi & LE SSERAFIM’s Chaewon
Another mistaken fan account follow comes from Vivi. The LOONA member mistakenly followed a fan account dedicated to Chaewon. Talk about a surprise for the fan! Both Vivi and Chaewon are known for their gentle voices and elegant images. They’d likely get along fabulously, providing each other with support in the fast-paced world of K-Pop.

5. (G)I-DLE’s Yuqi & BLACKPINK’s Lisa
This was an unforgettable moment. Yuqi revealed that she had accidentally followed Lisa on Instagram. She even humorously recalled that she didn’t realize her mistake until a few hours later when fans started speculating about a potential collaboration. With their unique personalities and charismatic performances, a friendship between these two would undoubtedly be a delight.

6. MAMAMOO’s Wheein & Jessi
Last but not least, Jessi’s accidental follow of Wheein left fans in stitches. When asked by a fan about the follow, she responded with a hearty “I think I followed her by accident! LOL.” Given their individuality and ability to command a stage, we believe that this could potentially result in a friendship full of fiery energy and good vibes.
