[@ebonythomas5199]

So happy to see him meet Kobe while he could!😔 I'm sure he'll never forget and always appreciate that experience!🤗😉

I love how calm Kai was when meeting Bruno I think that this has to be like the most calmest reaction to a fan meeting there idol and probably will be for a long time to come lol

[@imhereforitall9218]

He seemed in shock. Like the little girl that met Adam Levine. She seemed confused as to whether he was real or not or it was television. Cute.
