Jooheon’s Sentimental Gift Leaves Fans in Awe
MONSTA X member Jooheon once again proved his heartfelt connection with fans by appearing on the YouTube variety show Gambyeolsa, hosted by TWICE’s Jeongyeon. The show revolves around celebrity guests donating personal items and sharing memories behind them.
During his appearance, Jooheon offered a military dog tag engraved with the name of MONSTA X’s fan club, Monbebe, showcasing his ongoing love for his fans even during military service. “There was a booth to get custom tags during a unit event, so I had one made with ‘Monbebe’ on it,” he explained. The tag also features ‘20150514’—MONSTA X’s debut date—and the letter ‘X,’ making it even more meaningful.
Music Dedicated to Fans
In the same episode, Jooheon spoke about his solo debut album Lights and picked the track “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” as his favorite. “This song was written for Monbebes. It helped me get through my service, and now, it’s how I reconnect with my fans,” he said.
Lighthearted Banter Between Old Friends
Jeongyeon playfully teased Jooheon by asking if his album cover pose resembled aespa’s Whiplash. Jooheon laughed, replying, “It kind of does, doesn’t it? But hey, I did it first!” Their banter added a dose of fun and showed off their close friendship.
After sharing stories and gifts, the two stars wrapped up their filming by enjoying some trendy snacks together. “I’ve been filming a lot lately to show fans my best post-discharge side. Please continue to support me and watch Gambyeolsa,” Jooheon said, expressing his gratitude.
Looking Ahead to a Milestone Anniversary
MONSTA X will celebrate their 10th debut anniversary on May 14. Fans can catch more of Jooheon every Friday through the group’s reality show Mon Meok-Eodo Go on the official MONSTA X YouTube channel. His recent variety show appearance highlights not only his strong bond with fans but also his cherished connection with Jeongyeon.
