South Korean star Jin Nan-ki held a fan meeting in Taiwan and, during an interview, learned that he was chosen by the media two years ago as the "Most Friendly Korean Star" during that year's visit to Taiwan. He joyfully got up and cheered with excitement, demonstrating his caring side for those present. However, when talking about his friend Zhu Zhi-xun, he could not contain himself and went on a rant, stating that Zhu Zhi-xun talks more than he does and pointed out that the latter's acting needs adjustment, feeling that there’s a bit of forced display in his performance.

Jin Nan-ki took a walk during his free time, strolling through the alleys of Taipei without an umbrella, calling it a small happiness. Although many shops were closed, he had already enjoyed beef noodles. The last time he came to Taiwan was during the Ghost Month, and he learned that one should knock before entering a room. After returning to Korea, he continued this practice due to concerns about supernatural events and inquired beforehand if it was still Ghost Month before his trip to Taiwan this time.

Upon learning that he was chosen as the "Most Friendly Korean Star" in Taiwan for 2023, he shouted “YA” and jokingly asked, “Am I a Korean Wave STAR?” He humbly stated that he does not consider himself particularly friendly, just being himself with people. When the media entered, he noticed there wasn’t enough space to place a smartphone for recording, kindly asked the staff to bring a chair over, immediately demonstrating his friendly nature.

At the fan meeting in Japan, which lasted 4 hours, Jin Nan-ki admitted that the Korean team kept reminding him to manage the time. He was curious if everyone thought he talked a lot, and when he saw the media nodding vigorously, he couldn't help but laugh. He also revealed that his parents correct him more often than his manager does; even though others say he is noisy, he believes he is not that bad.

Suddenly, he diverted the topic and asked the reporter, “Did you wear rain boots because it’s raining?” which was quite random. When asked who talked the most among Ha Jung-woo, Zhu Zhi-xun, Jin Nan-ki, and JIN, Jin Nan-ki protested: “Everyone thinks it’s me, but actually, I talk the least among the four, mainly just reacting.” He specifically mentioned that Zhu Zhi-xun talks without considering the situation, “Whereas I understand how to distinguish the context.” Regarding Zhu Zhi-xun's acting, he pointed out that sometimes the evaluations feel overly deliberate, believing that the feedback might not be easily accepted, and jokingly said that if Zhu Zhi-xun were beside him, he would definitely refute him, laughing, “I unintentionally ended up dissing him.”

The media expressed concern over his comments and asked if they could write them down. Jin Nan-ki responded: “Don’t write about Zhu Zhi-xun; otherwise, he will think he is very popular. Why would he want to hold a fan meeting then?” Additionally, he made a cameo in the Korean drama “Bad Love,” stating that he agreed to act because he was old friends with the director and producer, ending up with more screen time than he had anticipated.

Jin Nan-ki praised Shin Min-ah's performance as very energetic, noting her excellent portrayal of character transformations; while Park Hae-soo has become more mature over time, especially after filming “Squid Game,” as his basic skills have become more solid. In the Seoul fan meeting, he performed DAY6’s “You Were Beautiful,” indicating that it was suggested by the staff to cater to younger fans. For the Taipei event the next day, he hopes to discuss more about his topics and works, wishing not to be interrupted by time constraints.
