But aside from getting to see TXT on tour, one thing that Filipino fans were especially excited about was the members getting to try Jollibee.

Jollibee is a Filipino chain of fast food restaurants worldwide that “offers many of your favorite comfort foods including fried chicken, French fries, pies, spaghetti, burgers, and more but with a Filipino twist,” according to their website.

let's bet who's the FIRST txt member that will eat jollibee

And fans succeeded in drawing Yeonjun‘s attention to the restaurant, although he didn’t initially understand what fans were asking him to try.

Fan: Try Jollibee!!

Yeonjun: Try what now?
Yeonjun: You mean like the rapper?

Fans even encouraged TXT to try Jollibee at the group’s concert, which helped Yeonjun realize that they were talking about a restaurant, not a “rapper.”

🦊 oh guys i found out something!! jollibee isn’t a rapper, it’s a hamburger brand
🦊 i thought it was the rapper from unpretty rapstar
🦊 but i know now
🦊 someone held up a sign at the concert too@TXT_members @TXT_bighit

And while Yeonjun excitedly talked to fans about all the incredible food he’d eaten while touring Southeast Asia…

He sadly explained to fans that he wouldn’t be able to try Jollibee before TXT left The Philippines.

🦊 maybe when i come next time…i ate mcdonald’s for breakfast..i…said…uhh…the m brand…uh wait what did i just do…
🦊 oh wait…i even said jollibee…oh wait…what am i doing @TXT_members @TXT_bighit

But TXT’s staff were watching Yeonjun’s live and made sure that Yeonjun would be able to try the food before they left.

Yeonjun was not only extremely grateful to his staff, but he also told fans that he thinks “Jollibee is the best.”
