During the game of identifying individuals and celebrities, Kian84 failed to recognize IU. In response, BTS's Jin stated, as translated by the BANGTAN TV YouTube channel:

"He didn't even know it was IU seeing her entire face. She's on 'When Life Gives You Tangles."

Subsequently, Kian84 said if she was IU, he would have recognized her right away. Ji Ye-eun corrected the Running Wild singer and said that the drama had the word 'Tangerines' instead of 'Tangles.'
