Published Mar 23, 2018 03:55 am
Scarlett Kramer, Doug and Chesca's second child, got the best advance birthday present from her favorite Kpop star, iKON's Bobby. Bobby made a video greeting for Scarlett after Doug posted an Instagram video of the 6-year-old requesting iKON's main rapper to attend her seventh birthday on November. “Attention!! We need your help, well....Scarlett needs your help! P.s. This video is already going viral on our TK FB! Keep tagging @bobbyindaeyo in his IG about Scarlett :)”, Doug captioned his post. (via Doug Kramer's Instagram video) (Screengrabbed from Doug Kramer's Instagram video) In the video, Doug can be heard saying Scarlett "wants Bobby of iKon, the K-pop singer, to perform or sing at for her at her birthday.” The video then shifted to Scarlett with tearful eyes saying “Bobby, can you please go to my birthday?” Netizens began tagging Bobby’s Instagram account for him to notice the young girl’s plea. Just hours after Doug's video was posted, the Kpop singer responded to Team Kramer’s request with video greeting on his Instagram story, even tagging Scarlett’s mother, Chesca in the video. “Hey Scarlett! This is Uncle Bobby,” the iKON member said in the video. The K-pop star then started singing 50 Cent's ‘In Da Club’ with his group member DK. “I don’t know if this is appropriate for you, but Happy Birthday!” Bobby said in the end of the clip. (via Bobby's Instagram story) (Screengrabbed from Bobby's Instagram story) In a video clip posted by Doug, Scarlett together with her siblings thanked the iKON member. "Oh my gosh! Thank you for your message Bobby. it's not my birthday but it's gonna be my best birthday ever even if it's advanced. I love you Bobby, saranghae" the six-year-old said. Scarlett's parents likewise expressed their gratitude to Bobby and the netizens who helped them reach out to the Korean rapper. “Oh my gosh!!!
