(G)I-DLE's Miyeon Opens Up About Her Feelings After Jung Dong Won Fails to Greet Her During Their Flight
(G)I-DLE member Miyeon opened up about her disappointment when singer Jung Dong Won didn’t greet her after they ran into each other.
In the fifth episode of the ENA and E Channel variety show Country Life of Gen-Z, which aired on October 6, Jung Dong Won addressed the misunderstanding about why he didn’t say hello to her outside.
During the episode, Miyeon shared that she happened to be on the same flight as Jung Dong Won and felt hurt because "he didn’t say hello." Yang Se Chan quickly scolded Jung Dong Won, saying, "If you see your noona (older sister), you should greet her!"
Jung Dong Won then asked to explain himself. He said, "If I had been alone, I would have gone to greet her, but I was with other members, and I thought it might be uncomfortable for both of us, so I didn’t do it." After hearing his side, Miyeon gave him a high-five, showing she understood his position.
However, Yang Se Chan reminded Jung Dong Won that he should always greet his fellow members whenever they meet, no matter the situation. He said that if he saw a member outside, he would use the signature greeting of Country Life of Gen-Z.
Jung Dong Won was surprised and asked, "Are you saying you would do that on a plane?" With Lee Eun Ji and Song Gun Hee joining in to pressure him, he promised, "I will do it from now on."
