South Korean rapper Jessi is known for her bold performances and vibrant personality, and she didn't disappoint at the recent Borneo Sonic Music Festival in Kuching. While her powerful stage presence electrified the crowd, it was a light-hearted and unscripted moment that truly stole the show.
In the middle of her high-energy performance, Jessi, always eager to connect with her fans, wanted to express her love in the local language. She asked the crowd how to say "I love you" in Sarawakian. However, unable to hear their response over the cheers, she took matters into her own hands and decided to ask one of the cameramen for help.
What happened next had everyone in stitches.
The cameraman, who was clearly caught off guard by the international superstar approaching him, appeared confused by Jessi's request. Misinterpreting the situation, he thought Jessi was personally expressing her love to him. Without skipping a beat, he responded with a simple, "I love you too."
The entire festival ground erupted in laughter as Jessi playfully rolled her eyes, amused by the unexpected reply. The moment quickly went viral on social media, with fans sharing the clip and praising Jessi's good-natured reaction to the mix-up.
Despite the language mishap, Jessi's heartfelt effort to engage with the Sarawakian crowd only made her more endearing to her Malaysian fans. The humorous exchange added a memorable highlight to the festival and showed that even superstars like Jessi can have spontaneous and relatable moments.
As Jessi wrapped up her performance with her signature energy, it was clear that this light-hearted interaction would be a story both she and the crowd would fondly remember for years to come.
Who knows? Maybe the next time she's in Kuching, she'll get the Sarawakian language just right!
