On December 22, an accident occurred at a shop in Ilsan, Goyang City, Gyeonggi Province, where an 80-year-old man scratched Hwang Kwang-hee’s Mercedes-Benz as he left a parking lot. What stands out, however, is Hwang Kwang-hee’s kind response.
According to a tip shared by the elderly man’s family with MHN Sports, Hwang Kwang-hee reassured the man, saying: “This car is old anyway, so it’s good. Simply remove your contact information and go.”
When contacted, Hwang Kwang-hee’s agency, Bonboo ENT, confirmed the incident. “Hwang Kwang-hee had parked briefly in Ilsan when an elderly man accidentally scratched his car,” the agency representative said.
The representative explained: “It was cold at the time and he didn’t want the old man to worry. Kwang-hee said his car wasn’t in great condition and told the man not to stress and leave.”
This touching act of kindness further endeared Hwang Kwang-hee to fans, increasing her reputation as a beloved celebrity.
This year, Hwang Kwang-hee has been actively involved in various projects, including ENA-Channel S’s “I Am Ground”, KBS 1TV’s “Scout 5 Early Adopter”, MBC’s global giving show “W”, the YouTube web series “Corporal Kwang” and the “Discount Wars” series.
Additionally, his message for the 20th anniversary calendar of “Infinite Challenge,” a show on which he was a beloved regular, attracted attention. He wrote, “Congratulations to Infinite Challenge on its 20th anniversary, which has brought much happiness, laughter and touching moments to many, including unforgettable memories for me as the youngest member. I wish everyone health and happiness in 2025!”
Hwang Kwang-hee’s longtime friendship with G-Dragon, who was also born in 1988, has recently been in the spotlight again. Their bond began during MBC’s “Yeongdong Highway Music Festival” in 2015, where they performed as the group “Hwangtaeji” (Hwang Kwanghee, Taeyang and G-Dragon).
On October 30, G-Dragon appeared on tvN’s “You Quiz on the Block”, where he and Hwang Kwang-hee exchanged words of encouragement, delighting fans. On December 19, Hwang Kwang-hee also shared a photo on social media wearing a daisy-adorned hat gifted by G-Dragon.
