Hwang shares his failed attempt at staying hidden

Privacy can be pretty tough for famous people, like K-Pop idols, who are always in the spotlight. One good-looking idol,

Hwang Minhyun

from NU’EST, shared a funny story about how he once tried to keep a low profile, but it didn't quite work out.
In an interview with Vogue, Minhyun talked about his favourite things, like his suitcase, sunglasses,

lip balm

, and L.O.Λ.E AirPods.

He also showed off a bucket hat he loved, which is from a brand called

Andersson Bell

. He called it his ultimate go-to item.
Now, here's where the funny part comes in. Minhyun shared that a while back, he was wearing this very hat while walking around Cheongdam-dong. He had a mask on, and his hat was pulled down low over his eyes, making it almost impossible to see his face.
But, despite his clever disguise, two ladies quickly recognised him! They came up to him and asked if he was Minhyun. He tried to deny it, but these ladies were pretty sure they had it right.

Minhyun was a bit surprised that his disguise didn't work, so he asked the ladies how they knew it was him. It turns out, they actually worked for Andersson Bell, the brand of the hat he was wearing. They wanted to thank him for wearing the hat so well!
Minhyun couldn't help but laugh at the situation, and even though he might have been surprised, his fans found it pretty amusing too. So, even when idols like Minhyun try to stay hidden, sometimes, fans have a way of spotting them, no matter how hard they try!
