The situation
Ryujin of ITZY made a surprise cameo in the finale of JTBC's drama "Reborn Rookie", where she played herself and got caught up in a soul-swapping plot twist. The scene involved Ryujin's character accidentally swapping souls with the main character Hwang Jun Hyun, played by Lee Jun Young. This led to a comedic exchange where Lee Jun Young, in Ryujin's body, performed ITZY's choreography.
What the internet did with it
- Netizens on Theqoo were generally amused by the cameo, with one comment saying — "I was so surprised to see Ryujin, it was a nice twist to the ending".
- The fact that Lee Jun Young, a former idol himself, was able to pull off ITZY's choreography added to the humor and impressed fans, with some noting his *눈치 (awareness of the situation) was on point.
- On Instiz, the room was chaotic, with people discussing the plot twist and Ryujin's unexpected appearance, but overall the vibe was lighthearted and entertained.
The open question
The finale's ending left viewers wondering what would happen next, but specifically, the question on everyone's mind is what will happen to Ryujin's character now that she's in Hwang Jun Hyun's body, and will there be any further consequences from this soul-swapping incident.
