One K-Pop Group’s Airport Departure Photo Is Not Like The Rest
K-Pop’s year-end award show season is underway, and the country’s biggest stars are currently making their way to the Philippines for the upcoming 2023 Asia Artist Awards.
The 2023 Asia Artist Awards takes place on December 14 and is hosted by returning MC IVE‘s Wonyoung, ZEROBASEONE‘s Sung Hanbin, and Kang Daniel.
This year’s ceremony promises a star-studded line-up that includes NewJeans, ZEROBASEONE, Stray Kids, ITZY, LE SSERAFIM, SEVENTEEN BSS, and more.
Performing and attending artists have already been spotted at Incheon Airport as they made their way to the Philippines.
As media captured the artists’ departures, netizens enjoyed their candid interactions with fans, airport fashion, and the behind-the-scenes look at the lives of K-Pop’s biggest stars.
While many of the departing groups happily smiled for photos taken by fans and waiting media, posing together as they waited to cross the street to enter the airport, there was one K-Pop group that stood out from the rest.
Among the attending artists is the beloved sibling duo AKMU (also known as Akdong Musician).
The talented group is known for their hilarious sibling dynamic, which is often all too relatable, as they avoid touching each other and jokingly tease each other during their promotions.
AKMU’s Suhyun and Chanhyuk may have arrived at the same time, but as media outlets took their photos, the two couldn’t have stood any further apart.
Netizens couldn’t help cracking up at AKMU’s continued example of real sibling behavior, and their airport photos, which were posted to the popular Korean online community board TheQoo, quickly went viral as netizens reacted.
- “WTF? Hahahahaha. Looks like their next album cover. LOL.”
- “Actually laughed out loud for the first time in a while, LOL.”
- “Hahaha.”
- “LOL.”
- “I wonder if they sit far away from one another, even on flights. Haha.
- Socially distanced, LOLOL.”
- “HAHAHA. Honestly, such an accurate picture of any siblings taking pictures together at the airport.”
