South Korean actress Go Youn Jung gave fans a reason to smile last week after a lighthearted airport moment went viral online, with many calling her behavior "adorably malfunctioning."

On May 30, Go was spotted at Incheon International Airport as she departed for Bali, Indonesia, to attend a reward vacation with the cast and crew of tvN's recent drama Resident Playbook.

Contrary to the high energy typically generated in celebrity airport arrivals, Go looked flustered by the sea of reporters and cameras flashing.

Photos showed the actress dressed in sporty casual wear, exuding vacation-ready energy.

However, instead of striking poses or waving confidently, Go hesitated, shuffled, and appeared unsure of what to do, sparking a wave of affectionate commentary from fans.

"She's freaking adorable, haha," one fan wrote on a popular forum. Another quipped, "Why is this goddess acting like a broken cat? LOL." A third user joked, "Those are baby giraffe legs, haha."

The incident quickly earned the nickname "baby giraffe moment," with fans praising her for being relatable and shy in a setting that often demands poise and performance from celebrities.

"She's shyness, personified. LOL," one comment read. Another added, "LOL. She forgot she's a celeb."

While the "airport runway" is a staple of Korean pop culture — often a place where celebrities showcase their latest fashion and poise — Go's candid reaction stood out for its authenticity.

Go, known for her roles in Alchemy of Souls and Moving, has yet to comment on the moment.

But based on fan reactions, her flustered response only endeared her more to the public.

"She's so cute," another fan wrote. "This just made me love her even more."
