Content Warning
Recently, NCT uploaded a video of Mark dancing the “Baggy Jeans” dance challenge with IVE‘s Yujin and rapper Lee Young Ji via TikTok and Instagram.
The video went viral on TikTok with 1.5M views at the time of writing. Many fans were excited to see this “unexpected trio,” especially knowing Lee Young Ji previously revealed that she is Mark-biased and even subscribed to his Bubble account.
Yet, netizens also criticized Lee Young Ji. While some called her the most successful Mark fangirl, others didn’t like how she behaved in the video, pointing out that she appeared to be intentionally dancing “bad” for laughs. Besides being a professional music artist, Lee Young Ji is also known for her humorous YouTube program My Alcohol Diary (also known as No Prepare), where she interviews and drinks with celebrities in her small apartment.

Lee Young Ji has proven actually to be a skilled dancer. For instance, she and her friend, Yujin, collaborated for a special performance of “End Of Time” and “Born This Way” at MBC’s Gayo Daejejeon. Lee Young Ji slayed the choreography!
