Korean netizens gathered in a popular online community to discuss an extravagant gift a male idol received from one of his fans.

On September 23, a video of a wealthy Chinese fan handing Minghao (Seventeen's The8) a gold ingot (bar) during a fan sign event went viral. In the video, the fan was seen shaking The8's hands when she discreetly passed the gold ingot into his palms.

One Korean netizen shared the video on social and explained, "Wait, hold on. At a fan sign in China, a fan gave Minghao a gold bar. Apparently, Minghao secretly returned it. I've never seen anything like this in my life."


Other netizens were impressed and shocked by the surprising and unimaginable gift as they commented:

"Wait, what did she give him???"

"Wow, Chinese fans are on another level, wow. They’re giving out gold..."

"I'm curious, how much does a gold bar cost?"

"A standard gold bar weighs 400 ounces, about 11 kg, and costs around 1 million dollars, which is approximately 1.3 billion KRW. But the one in question was small enough to hold in one hand, so it’s a smaller size."

"I wonder what that fan does to be able to hand him a gold nugget like that."

"Chinese fans are really awesome."

"If I were him, I would've just taken it, lol"

"I wish someone would hand me a gold bar discreetly like that too."

"It's a good thing he handed it back. You don't know what will happen if he took it."

"She's wearing an expensive bracelet too."

"That wealth class is so crazy."

"I'm so envious."

"Gold bar???"

"Wow, lol."

"Other than the gold, both their hands are so pretty."
