Sometimes, idols can even accidentally follow their own fans, like SHINee‘s Jonghyun that lead to this adorable interaction.
Fan: “Woah Jonghyun I think you accidentally followed me! Sorry I will unblock you!! But still thank you! Jonghyun I hope you are always happy! I will always support you! Bye!”
Jonghyun: “Aigoo looks like I made a mistake again. Sorry, be happy!❤️ Thank you, it’s late, good night.”
Most recently, ILLITE has been caught accidentally following a fan account.
The mistake quickly went viral because of the fan account’s previous tweets addressing NewJeans‘ recent plagiarism accusations of Mexican girl group Jeans.
The fan account also posted screenshots and expressed how the members are actively looking at Twitter.
The post quickly gained attention on both Twitter and Korean forum theqoo.

Many netizens left comments amazed by the situation.
- “Wow really…”
- “Wow, I used to think the members were innocent, but after seeing this…”
- “Where are the people who said the kids are innocent? Lmao. In the end, they’ll claim the members didn’t do it, but everything is out now.”
- “Wow…”
- “Wow, what’s going on?”
Many were particularly amazed that it is the members’ Twitter account, meaning it was done by the members themselves and not the company and/or staff.
- “Wait, you mean it’s the members’ Twitter??”
- “It’s not an official promotional account run by the company, but an account where the members communicate with fans. It’s the members’ Twitter.. lol”
- “Lmao They followed 3 accounts and then unfollowed them, that’s a real mistake”
- “Do they think they’re invincible because they’re under HYBE? This is just like Source Music’s downfall.”
- “Karma really is science… Every time they act up, something big happens.”
- “OMG”
- “The members’ Twitter…?”
ILLIT has since unfollowed the fan account.
