HYBE Chairman Bang Si Hyuk has once again captured attention with his latest update, following the buzz surrounding his encounter with popular BJ Seyeon in Los Angeles.

On August 29 KST, Bang Si Hyuk posted a photo on his personal channel, showing him with Andrew Ng, a computer science professor at Stanford University. In the photo, Bang is dressed in a casual black outfit, appearing noticeably slimmer compared to his appearance three weeks ago on a foreign creator’s channel.

Earlier this month, Bang Si Hyuk was spotted crossing a street in Beverly Hills alongside BJ Seyeon in a video posted by the YouTube channel 'I am Walking.' The sighting stirred considerable interest, with Seyeon later addressing the encounter during a live broadcast on August 13. She clarified, "It wasn’t a chance meeting with Chairman Bang Si Hyuk; he simply helped me secure a reservation at a difficult-to-book restaurant."
