Choi Jung-hoon, the lead vocalist of the band JANNABI, expressed his gratitude to fans who organized a birthday billboard event for him.

On October 11, a video titled 'Happy Birthday to JH' was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'JANNABI JANNABI.' In the video, Choi visited Hongdae to see the birthday billboard prepared for his 34th birthday. Upon discovering the billboard, he unfolded a banner reading 'TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY' and beamed with joy.

He cheerfully announced, "It's my birthday, everyone," waving to passersby and bus passengers. Choi expressed his delight, saying, "I've made it, I've made it." He added, "It's my first time receiving such a celebration in the heart of Hongdae on my birthday. It feels great to be born," conveying his heartfelt thanks.

Later, he shared a photo of himself sitting on the streets of Hongdae, looking at the billboard, accompanied by a bow, hand heart, and a monkey emoji symbolizing JANNABI. In the photo, he wore a black jacket and gazed at the billboard with a banner tucked under his left arm. The birthday message featuring Choi's photo was displayed on two billboards in the Hongdae area.

Upon seeing the photo, netizens responded with comments like "So lovely and cute," "Happy birthday," and "Already 34, but still so adorable," showering him with congratulations and admiration.

Meanwhile, JANNABI, the band Choi is part of, is set to hold a solo concert at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena from October 23 to 25.
