TXT‘s Soobin is officially the most successful fan ever!
Soobin is an outspoken fan of American singer-songwriter Bebe Rexha. For years, he has made it known how much he admires her.

They met via live broadcast in April 2020 but never in person. Fans have hoped for a collab for a while, but she explained via Twitter that communication between her company and BIGHIT MUSIC wasn’t easy.
We all hoped that Soobin and Bebe would finally meet when they both appeared at the 2022 American Music Awards (AMAs) on November 20. Still, he was happy to see her perform live.
Finally I saw @BebeRexha !!!
After watching your performamce, I was so amazed and now I can blissfully sleep well🥺
Next time, lets definitely have a meet and greet plz…!#SOOBIN pic.twitter.com/Mvokt7gtsC— TOMORROW X TOGETHER (@TXT_members) November 21, 2022
Bebe had hoped to meet Soobin, though. Unfortunately, the group’s flight was the day after, so they just missed each other.

Bebe quote-tweeted Soobin’s sad response, reassuring him they would keep in touch. She even gave him her number!
Now, TXT recently returned to the United States. They performed on The Late Late Show with James Corden this week.

When Bebe heard TXT were in Los Angeles, California, she tried to call Soobin. It seemed he didn’t pick up, though, as she shared a screenshot of a failed FaceTime call via Twitter, tagging TXT’s official account.

Well, Soobin didn’t completely fumble…
Bebe Rexha just shared a video via TikTok and Twitter, dancing to her song “Heart Wants What It Wants.” She motioned for someone to join her from off-camera and…
They appeared, and it was none other than Soobin himself! So, they danced together.
Based on Bebe’s outfit, he must have returned that call shortly after, as she was dressed the same.
Fans were so excited that Soobin’s longtime dream of meeting his idol finally came true! We couldn’t be happier for him.
Now, we just hope we can get a collab!
