K-Pop Star Hwasa Gifts Rare Pine Mushrooms to Actor Yoon Kyung-ho

K-Pop sensation Hwasa recently surprised actor Yoon Kyung-ho with a special gift of pine mushrooms.

On October 14, the YouTube channel '뜬뜬' uploaded a video titled '100-Minute Talk is Just an Excuse.' The episode featured actors Joo Ji-hoon, Kim Nam-gil, and Yoon Kyung-ho as guests.

During the show, Yoon Kyung-ho shared a behind-the-scenes story from the '핑계고' awards ceremony. He recalled, “That day, Hwasa won the pine mushrooms and even performed on stage. I was already thrilled, but as we were taking a final commemorative photo, she handed me the mushrooms and said, 'Take these to your sister.'” Joo Ji-hoon, surprised, asked, “You received them?” to which Yoon Kyung-ho replied, “Yes, I did.” Joo Ji-hoon jokingly added, “You should have given her something in return. You're her senior, after all.” Yoon Kyung-ho humorously responded, “I was just holding a balloon at the time.”

Yoon Kyung-ho continued, “I couldn't wait to brag about it. On the way home, I was preparing what to say. When I arrived, I told my wife, 'Look at this. These pine mushrooms were given to me by Hwasa herself. Even Hwang Jung-min and Lee Sung-min wanted them, but she gave them to me. Why? Because she wanted me to have them!' We both held onto the box of mushrooms, feeling so grateful, and kept saying 'Hwasa' while staring at it for a long time.”
