The fan had asked him to say something encouraging to her, as she had been experiencing a busy period at work. He unexpectedly took the chance to shade his company subtly.

Hendery: “Fighting! Fighting! Uh, you’re busy at work…it’s okay! Our company is busy too!”
Fan: “What are you guys busy with!!”
Both: [laughs]
Hendery: “Umm…[nods]”

Fans have been loving how real he was.
