WATCH: LE SSERAFIM's Yunjin Shares Stories About Childhood Filipino BFF During Her Weverse Live

LE SSERAFIM's Yunjin talked about her Filipino childhood best friend during a Weverse live broadcast.

The Korean-American member of LE SSERAFIM went live on Weverse Thursday. During the one-hour-long live broadcast, one fan commented, "Come to the Philippines, Yunjin," to which Yunjin replied, "Actually, I really want to go to the Philippines."

The LE SSERAFIM member went on to share that she actually had a Filipino childhood best friend. Yunjin also shared that her friend often brought ube-flavored mamon (mini sponge cake), and she still thinks about it to this day.

She continued to share that for her friend's birthday, they had a coconut cake that she found so delicious. According to one fan, Yunjin may be talking about buko pie, a Filipino-style coconut pie made of young coconut meat combined with a creamy custard filling and enclosed in a flaky pie crust.
