Over the past few months, look-alike contests have been gaining popularity worldwide, featuring competitions for stars like Timoth¨¦e Chalamet, Zayn Malik, India's Virat Kohli, and K-pop sensation Jeon Jungkook of BTS. As this trend continued, it was time for NCT's Mark Lee to have his own look-alike contest.?
The first-ever Mark Lee look-alike contest was announced to take place in New York and initially scheduled for December 7. However, it was later postponed to December 13 and the contest went on to even make headlines in Korean media. The anticipation only grew when Mark himself reposted about the contest, giving fans the first sign that the idol might actually attend.?
As the day of the event approached, it faced an unexpected obstacle when the police arrived to investigate, reportedly after a fan volunteered to take responsibility for the gathering. Amid a bad start, things turned out to be good as their suspicions proved true as the K-pop star showed up after the event began, accompanied by two security guards.
Initially, Mark was all smiles in videos and photos, but the situation quickly escalated. Social media clips showed chaos erupting as fans began pushing and mobbing around him. According to attendees, Mark left shortly after arriving due to the disorder, with fans seen running and chasing after his vehicle.??
Many took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to even express how the fans should have showed decency and allowed the idol to enjoy the contest.
Talking about the idol himself, he has officially begun the countdown for his highly anticipated new solo release. At midnight KST on December 12, he unveiled a stylish teaser for his upcoming single, "Fraktsiya". The track is set to drop on December 16 at 6 PM KST and will feature the talented rapper Lee Young Ji.?
