SEVENTEEN member Jun recently opened up about Exclusive Fairytale, the Chinese drama he did.
On the day filming began for Exclusive Fairytale, Jun was inundated with support from his fellow SEVENTEEN members. They sent him not one, not two, but a whopping twelve flower baskets. They didn’t stop there, though. SEVENTEEN is known for being extra, which is how they show their love for each other. “They gave me plenty of flowers and wrote a pile of stuff,” Jun reminisced with a chuckle.

Moving on to another heartwarming tale, he highlighted a particularly thoughtful gesture by Vernon, one of the group’s rappers. The shoes Jun wore during the booting ceremony of Exclusive Fairytale were, in fact, a gift from Vernon.
Jun had once mentioned how he found those shoes appealing. To his surprise, Vernon bought them for him, remarking, “These will keep you company through this period.” (The period in question was Jun‘s filming stint in China.)

Jun shared another funny story
But it wasn’t all sweet moments. There were instances filled with playful teasing, especially when he watched part of Exclusive Fairytale with his members. During a particularly intimate scene, despite having makeup on, his ears and neck betrayed his embarrassment by turning a violent shade of red.
Jun’s members didn’t miss the chance to pull his leg. “Why are you suddenly blushing?” they teased, to which he playfully responded, “Ling Chao did it, so it’s got nothing to do with me, right?”
#WenJunhui: don't even mention kiss scenes. one year, our group member (#JOSHUA) carried a cake to say congratulations. such a small scene and our members laughed and joked about it for 2-3 years 😂 they're going to laugh at me for a lifetime 😅 i can already imagine their… pic.twitter.com/af8M17L2BH

Speaking of intimate scenes, Jun shared another funny story. When he kissed one of his co-stars in a previous drama he starred in, Joshua bought a cake to congratulate him. What was supposed to be a quick moment became a recurring joke among the members. “Such a small scene and our members laughed and joked about it for two to three years,” Jun shared, laughing at the memory. He added, “They’re going to laugh at me for a lifetime because of Exclusive Fairytale.”
Jun‘s journey during the filming of Exclusive Fairytale was marked by heartwarming gestures and light-hearted banter. Through these stories he shared with the media, CARATs got a glimpse of the close-knit bond shared by the SEVENTEEN members on and off the stage. – K-Pop News Writer
