Kim Kwang-kyu, a self-proclaimed fan of IVE, found himself banned from the waiting room after confusing Jang Won-young with Ahn Yu-jin.<\/p>\n

On the 9th episode of SBS’s “My Too Bossy Manager – The Assistants” (hereafter “The Assistants”), IVE group member Ahn Yu-jin, who has served as an MC for the ‘Gayo Daejeon’ for four consecutive years, appeared as the ‘my star’.<\/p>\n

Kim Kwang-kyu, who had previously declared his fandom for IVE at “The Assistants” press conference, showed his enthusiasm by taking out an IVE light stick before the show started, drawing laughter.<\/p>\n

At the “Gayo Daejeon” site, featuring 36 artist teams, Kim Kwang-kyu and Lee Seo-jin struggled to fulfill ‘my star’ Ahn Yu-jin’s morning coffee request, hinting at a challenging schedule ahead.<\/p>\n

Contrary to their confidence, Kim Kwang-kyu faced difficulties right from Ahn Yu-jin’s first request for drinks, unable to distinguish between iced tea and coffee. His struggle brought laughter to Ahn Yu-jin and the staff, while Lee Seo-jin humorously expressed his frustration by saying, “Get out now!”<\/p>\n

After finally delivering drinks to ‘my star’ Ahn Yu-jin, Kim Kwang-kyu and Lee Seo-jin watched from a distance as Ahn Yu-jin, who hadn\u2019t eaten breakfast, had her makeup done.<\/p>\n

Ahn Yu-jin humorously remarked, “You two felt really like fathers. Watching from afar reminded me of parents visiting a class,” drawing laughter.<\/p>\n

During their conversation over a meal after makeup, Kim Kwang-kyu, who identified himself as an IVE fan, mistakenly thought Jang Won-young was the leader of IVE, leading to an awkward moment. Kim Kwang-kyu tried to explain, saying, “It stated Won-young was the leader,” but Lee Seo-jin countered with, “Why were you looking up Jang Won-young?” causing more laughter.<\/p>\n

Kim Kwang-kyu stumbled, attempting to rectify his mistake by saying, “I was researching. I thought there were five members,” but Ahn Yu-jin firmly declared him “banned from the IVE waiting room” for the mix-up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
