On the April 29 broadcast of Radio Star, Lee Daehwi and Jeon Somi revealed just how close they are so close that they even shared house passcodes.

Jeon Somi surprised viewers by revealing: “Daehwi used to come over to my house all the time. Even though he lived far away, he would travel 17km just to hang out.”

She also shared a playful anecdote from their trainee days, admitting she once secretly took 50,000 KRW from his wallet only to later hand it back as “taxi fare.”

“He was so touched, and I couldn’t bring myself to tell the truth. I only confessed about 10 years later,” she laughed.

Lee Daehwi then added an even funnier story that had the studio in stitches. “I once got scolded by Somi’s mom,” he said. “I knew the door password, so I just let myself in and was hanging out in her room. Suddenly, I heard someone coming, and her parents rushed in.”

Recognizing him didn’t save him from punishment. “I still got hit on the back and scolded,” he joked, referring to the classic Korean “playful smack”.

Despite the chaos, the moment ended warmly: “After that, we all sat together and chatted comfortably.”

Their stories highlighted just how deep their bond runs. Jeon Somi described their relationship as one where they can argue on the phone but still say, “Let’s meet and talk it out.”

Lee Daehwi echoed the sentiment: “We connected a lot during IOI days. Somi is someone I can’t live without in my life.”

The candid stories resonated with fans for their authenticity and humor. In an industry often seen as polished and distant, moments like these show a more personal side of idols.
