On this day, Namgoong Min said, 'I’ve been doing a bit of social media lately, and I heard there’s a famous person who looks just like me.' He added, 'I felt really good being told I resemble someone.' He continued, 'I’m not sure if I can fool you well, but I’ll try to hide my identity properly.' After that, Namgoong Min exchanged messages with Jaemin and set a time to reveal their identities after the conversation. Upon seeing Namgoong Min's face, Jaemin stepped back in shock, appearing frozen, and confessed, 'In my 11 years of idol life, I’ve never been this confused.'

He also mentioned, 'Yunho from TVXQ said we should meet, but I said it was scary,' showing a nervous expression. Namgoong Min commented about Jaemin, 'It feels like I’ve been photoshopped,' and said, 'Youth is great.' On the other hand, Jaemin remarked, 'It feels like I’m looking at my dad,' and said, 'I can see my eyes in his eyes.'
