K-Pop artists have a very special relationship with their fans.
With this said, certain artists go out of their way to show their appreciation to their fans.
Solo artist Kwon Eun Bi just proved how much she cares for her fans, and she’s going viral for it.
A post on Korea’s largest online community titled “Kwon Eun Bi Is Seriously Nice” has been viewed over 90K times.
In the post, the author wrote the incredibly sweet gesture by Kwon Eun Bi for her fans during the filming of Idol Star Athletics Championships. Idol Star Athletics Championship is an MBC variety program that features K-Pop idols competing against one another in sports events.
All of the record labels sent their fans a ₩10,000 KRW (about $7.64 USD) lunch coupon at restaurant Lotteria except Kwon Eun Bi’s fandom. Turns out Kwon Eun Bi and her label didn’t want their fans to walk all the way to Lotteria, so they ordered lunch for the fans with their own money.
But when the lunch arrived late, after continuously apologizing, Kwon Eun Bi went to Starbucks herself to buy her fans refreshments.
When the food finally came, Kwon Eun Bi messaged her fans directly, telling them to eat slowly because she won’t be entering filming until 4. It’s so touching.
For dinner, she bought her fans one whole bucket of fried chicken each. Eun Bi unnie is an angel.

The author then posted the lunch that was delivered to fans as well as the private messages Kwon Eun Bi sent fans.
Ruby, I am so sorry that it (lunch) is coming so late. Ha… I don’t know why it’s so late.
— Kwon Eun Bi
Eat slowly, and come in when you guys are fully ready ㅠㅠ. I won’t go inside until after four, so eat slowly and make sure you chew all your food. I am so sorry it was late.
— Kwon Eun Bi
You know what, I’ll go get you guys some refreshments. Don’t worry and eat. I will be right back. If we had given you guys the lunch coupons, you guys would have had to walk in the heat, so we bought lunch for you guys, but I’m so sorry that it came so late. I’ll hurry up and go to a cafe…
— Kwon Eun Bi
Don’t worry, I’m not going inside (filming). Eat slowly and rest slowly, okay? I hope you guys enjoy your food, and I will do my best to make sure dinner isn’t late ㅠㅠ!

Netizens were rightfully touched by how thoughtful Kwon Eun Bi was to her fans.
- “This is what I call fan service, instead of the labels buying coupons.”
- “She used her own money? That’s crazy.”
- “Wow, her love for her fans is unmatched. Her fans must have been so touched.”
- “Because Eun Bi is a solo artist, she’s going to have to pay for all of it herself. The most touching thing about all of this is her messages. Her heart is so pretty ㅠㅠ. I’m so touched!”
- “Honestly, it isn’t about how much all of this cost her. I would be so touched by the thought alone. Her heart is so pretty.”
- “Wow BHC… Chicken is so expensive these days.”
