Before beginning the show, they introduced his full name, which was a mix of his Korean and English name.

Our Felix, his full name is Felix Yongbok Lee. If expressed in Korean, it would be Lee Felix Yongbok?

Felix also revealed where his Korean name it originated from.

“Felix: The name Yongbok was given to me by my grandfather.

Hong Seok Chun: Apparently, his grandfather named him Yongbok and his mother cried.”

My mother originally had a name that came to mind. Yeah, she wanted to give me a trendy name, but my grandfather said he must give me this name. So, apparently, my mom cried for six months.

— Felix

Although his mom may have been sad about it, host Ddol Ddol had a different opinion.

He has a feeling of a prince and has a luxurious appearance, but his name is Yongbok, making it feel a bit countrified. It gives off the feeling that ‘Lee Yongbok is also human’, right?

Regardless of what his name is, Felix Yongbok Lee, you will always be famous! Watch the full episode below.
