Jun Hyun-moo causes a 'Lee Kang-in misunderstanding' incident in Mexico... even performs dribbling at fans' request

Jun Hyun-moo experienced superstar-level popularity from local and global tourists while visiting the Mexican market on KBS2’s ″The Boss Has Donkey Ears.″ In the broadcast, Jun Hyun-moo visited the Mexican market wearing the uniform of Lee Kang-in’s team. Foreign tourists and locals who saw him mistook him for Lee Kang-in of the South Korean national soccer team and continuously requested photos. Amid the crowd, shouts of ″Lee″ were heard repeatedly, and Jun Hyun-moo naturally engaged in fan service, even showing off dribbling skills with playful antics. Quickly understanding the situation, Lee Young-pyo explained, ″People think Hyun-moo is Lee Kang-in because of the uniform he’s wearing.″ Although flustered by the attention and camera flashes, Jun Hyun-moo appeared to enjoy the moment. When Jun Hyun-moo joked, ″People were more drawn to me because they were sure I was Lee Kang-in after seeing my soccer skills,″ Lee Young-pyo responded, ″No one would mistake that for a soccer player’s form.″ Kim Sook also burst out laughing, saying, ″Isn’t that a big deal?″ Jun Hyun-moo showed his characteristic cheekiness by calculating, ″I don’t think 100% of the people mistook me for Lee Kang-in. At least 15% came because they like me.″ Meanwhile, ″The Boss Has Donkey Ears″ recorded a peak rating of 6.0% based on Nielsen Korea for the last episode, maintaining its position as the number one variety show in its time slot for 215 consecutive weeks.
