IVE’s An Yujin has once again warmed fans’ hearts—not just with her talent and charm, but with a thoughtful gesture for her family.
The 21-year-old idol, known for her multifaceted skills and natural charisma, revealed in a recent broadcast that she gifted her father a Mercedes-Benz SUV, fulfilling a wish he jokingly made after watching her drive the same model on television.
On May 2, YouTube’s Channel Fullmoon released a video featuring An Yujin and acclaimed producer Na Young Seok enjoying a springtime outing together.
The pair, who developed a close bond through the hit tvN variety show Earth Arcade, were seen driving together in a Mercedes-Benz.
Na Young Seok playfully commented on the car’s appearance, comparing it to a “chubbier version” of the one his wife drives.
Yujin’s newfound driving skills have become a charming focal point for fans. She earned her driver’s license as part of Earth Arcade’s spinoff, Vroom Vroom, and has been featured taking on a variety of driving missions.
Notably, she recently won her first parking challenge on Earth Arcade 3, driving a Benz with impressive ease.
The moment garnered such public attention that Mercedes-Benz themselves reportedly reached out to the production team—a testament to both Yujin’s influence and the segment’s popularity.
During the video, Yujin shared a heartfelt behind-the-scenes story:
“My dad watched that episode and said he wanted the same model. So I changed his car for a Benz!”
Her candid reveal surprised and impressed the cast, showcasing not only her success but also her deep affection for her family.
Born in 2003, An Yujin is the leader of IVE, one of K-pop’s most prominent fourth-generation girl groups.
Celebrated for her visuals, vocal ability, dance performance, and vibrant personality, she continues to win hearts across various media—from music stages to variety shows and hosting gigs.
Fans often describe her as a “perfect all-rounder,” and this latest gesture only adds to her growing reputation as a grounded and generous star.
