 ITZY‘s Yeji and Lee Daehwi just revealed they actually have a close relationship! During a recent livestream broadcast ahead of their MC gig for M!

Although the two have known each other for a long time, this was the first time that the two had met up since their debuts!

“We do know each other. I haven’t seen her in 3 years. I am very happy to see ITZY debut successfully like we did and felt like I was the one who had debuted. When I watched your M! Countdown encore stage when you won, my heart hurt so much seeing you all cry.”

After hearing Daehwi’s emotional feelings, Yeji gave a thank you to ITZY’s fans before giving some love to Daehwi.

“We’ve only recently debuted but so many fans have shown us so much more love than we deserve. Thanks to it, we were able to come first place quickly. ITZY will do our best to meet your expectations. Also, I want to wish Daehwi the best too!”
