The incident occurred during the 2025 Music Bank Global Festival in Japan, where Wonyoung and Lee Jun Young were the MCs.

The two stars co-hosted the music festival on December 13 and 14 in an outdoor venue. During the ceremony, a light drizzle started pouring, leaving the stage completely vulnerable to getting wet. Lee Jun Young promptly sprang into action, holding his cue card high above Wonyoung’s head to guard her from the rain.

The simple and contact-free gesture got captured on camera and has sparked heated reactions online. Fans flooded Korean online forums with comments comparing the moment to a real-life K-Drama scene. In the video, even Wonyoung seemed to be impressed by her co-host’s gesture as she smiled at him sweetly. Fans joked that the idol looked “smitten” by Lee’s actions.

This, however, isn’t Lee’s first time going viral for his chivalry. In the past, he received high praise from netizens when he was seen assisting i-dle member Shuhua without touching her as she was walking down the stairs wearing a long gown and heels at another event. During another live stage with comedian Jang Do Yeon, he discreetly covered her with his suit jacket when she had to adjust her dress.
