Is it Shot on Galaxy? Felix Samsung Selfie with Chairman Lee Goes Viral!

Is it Shot on Galaxy? The Iconic Felix Samsung Selfie That’s Breaking the K-pop Internet

The digital world is buzzing after an unexpected “power duo” appeared on our feeds: Stray Kids’ Felix Samsung Selfie with none other than Samsung Electronics Executive Chairman Lee Jae-yong. On Friday, the K-pop icon uploaded a series of photos to his Instagram with a playful “hehe” (ㅎㅎ) caption, sending STAYs and tech enthusiasts into a frenzy.

A State Luncheon Turned Viral Photoshoot

This wasn’t just a random run-in. The meeting took place at the Blue House (Cheong Wa Dae) during a state luncheon for French President Emmanuel Macron. While the event was filled with global dignitaries and business tycoons like Hyundai’s Euisun Chung, it was the “two-shot” of Felix and Chairman Lee that stole the spotlight.

The photo features the two in sharp black suits, with Felix flashing his signature smile and a finger-heart, while Chairman Lee stands beside him with a gentle, approving grin. Fans quickly dubbed the duo “Lee Jae-yong-bok,” a witty pun combining the Chairman’s name with Felix’s Korean birth name, Lee Yong-bok.

The Ultimate Samsung Loyal Artist

What makes this Felix Samsung Selfie even more special is Felix’s history with the tech giant. Having previously modeled for the Galaxy S25 Edge—a campaign that garnered 19 million views in just 10 days—Felix is famously known for his loyalty to the brand. Unlike many idols who switch to competitors after their contracts end, Felix has been spotted consistently using his Galaxy, earning him the title of the “True Galaxy Ambassador” among netizens.

Online comments ranged from “This photo looks like it brings in money” to “The crossover we never knew we needed.” Even French First Lady Brigitte Macron, a known K-pop fan, was seen greeting Felix warmly at the event, proving his global influence transcends music.

Why This Moment Matters

As an honorary ambassador for the 140th anniversary of Korea-France diplomatic relations, Felix continues to bridge the gap between pop culture and high-level diplomacy. Whether it’s a kiss on the cheek from a First Lady or a viral selfie with a tech mogul, Felix is proving that his charm is a universal language.
