LE SSERAFIM Yunjin‘s recent interaction with a deaf fan has gained attention online.
On February 19, LE SSERAFIM made their comeback with Easy. Since then, the group have since been promoting the album in the usual ways, including holding fan sign events.
During fan sign events, fans are able to chat with their favorite idols in a more private setting, making the experience even more special. At an event held on March 17, Yunjin interacted with a fan who, according to her account, is deaf.
The fan held up signs with what she wanted to say to Yunjin, who earnestly read them.
Yunjin responded in sign language before signing and waving bye to the fan. The idol appeared to watch the fan as she moved to the next member, smiling as she watched her interact with the next LE SSERAFIM member.
A video of this moment was posted on X and gained nearly 2 million views.

Not long after the post, the fan in the video was found, and she revealed her full experience with Yunjin. According to the fan, after Yunjin read the messages, she was surprised by Yunjin’s signing ability and felt grateful for the entire experience.
ルセラのサイン会で感動したことがたくさんあったんですが、ユンジンと話してる時感動しました…そのことを話します。
私が伝えたいことをボードで見せると、すぐに手話しようとしたけど、ボードをちゃんと読もうと止めていました。— はあちゃむ (@Haru_WIZONE_s2_) March 19, 2024
There were many things that moved me at LE SSERAFIM’s fansign event, but I was especially moved when I was talking to Yunjin…I’ll explain. When I showed her what I wanted to say on the board, she first tried to sign but stopped to read the board properly.
When she finished reading, Yunjin smiled and communicated with me in sign language. At that time, I was really surprised and thought, ‘sign language? You’re so good at it…Maybe you remembered it because I showed you before? You’re not just saying hello, but you’re using sign language to say what you want to say?!” I panicked and said thank you. […]
But in the end, I realized that Yunjin is a kind and capable person.
