On 14 January, which is also his actual birthday, the main dancer on the popular K-Pop boy band Kai, whose real name is Kim Jong-in, posted on his Instagram page a photo of himself with Hollywood star and leader of rock group Thirty Seconds to Mars Jared Leto; the move saw an outpouring of emotion from fans of both celebrities, who are also two of the most famous Gucci Ambassadors, after the two posed for a photo together.
Jared warmed the hearts of EXO-L (the official name of EXO fandom) with his interaction with Kai and even wrote his name in Korean in sand, which happened to be all over the floor as a part of the decoration of the show.
Kai's fansite suggested that Jared probably wrote "love" in Korean and Kai thanked him.
