In these viral clips, she not only shared the story of how she met BTS' Kim Tae-hyung but also mentioned that they have grown so close that they communicate informally. In South Korea, informal language is reserved for people who share a strong bond, as most interactions typically employ formal language for conversation initiation.

During the aforementioned interview, Bada Lee revealed that Kim Tae-hyung had contacted her to dance together, as translated by the user Taeguide. She stated:

Taehyung contacted me first and said he would like us to dance together. We got together and had so much fun while dancing."

She also elaborated on how, along with her friend Gof, they created a group called '95z' with Kim Tae-hyung, dancing together to find happiness and relieve stress. As translated by user Taeguide, she explained:

"Together with my friend Gof, a hip-hop dancer, V and I, we created a close-knit group called '95z' that dances together joyfully and stress-free."

Furthermore, she explained the reason behind the name '95z' and stated how close they have become, as translated by user Taeguide:

"We named ourselves '95z' because we were all born in '95 and now we get along so well that we can speak informally with each other."

As fans read about her interactions with Kim Tae-hyung and how they became friends, they couldn't contain their excitement. They took to social media, expressing admiration for their friendship, which is evident in their ecstatic dancing together.

Check out how fans are reacting as Bada Lee dishes how the Love Me Again singer personally contacted her to meet:

Many fans are delighted that it was V who approached her first, mentioning that he isn't shy about such things, and that's one of the reasons everyone loves him.

Moreover, fans also congratulated Bada Lee and BEBE for winning the trophy and a $37,000 prize, along with diamond rings from Almonds, in the survival show Street Woman Fighter Season 2.
