Kian84 art class took an unexpected yet delightful turn when Dex and Ji Ye-eun joined him for a mountain hike-turned-sketching session. What was meant to be a peaceful open-air art experience quickly unraveled into a chaotic, hilarious, and emotionally revealing adventure.
A Chaotic Start to Kian’s “Outdoor Classroom”
Set against the scenic backdrop of Cheonggyesan, Kian84 kicked off his nature-inspired art class with the energy of an overenthusiastic teacher. Ji Ye-eun arrived first, injecting immediate sass and playful roasts into the mix. Their sibling-like bickering set the tone: Ye-eun mocked Kian’s eccentricity, while Kian parried with deadpan absurdism.
Dex’s arrival added a new layer to the classroom dynamic. Though calm and courteous, his presence became the perfect fuel for both Kian and Ye-eun’s antics. They teased him relentlessly, turning even their Baeksang Awards memory into a sarcastic competition over who clapped longer.
At first, Dex and Ye-eun seemed awkward—so much so that Kian joked they looked like a couple in family court. But as the three made their way up the trail, camaraderie bloomed. Dex clearing leaves for Ye-eun earned him both admiration and light mockery. Kian, ever the observer, jokingly took photos like a proud dad watching his “students” bond.
Kian84 Art Class: Bickering With Brushes
Once they reached their drawing spot, Kian’s art class came to life with unique creative energy. Each person took a different approach to their sketch, revealing much more than just artistic skill:
- Kian84’s drawing stole the spotlight: a cartoonish portrayal of himself trying (and failing) to be kind to Ye-eun. His exaggerated long arm and her annoyed expression captured their love-hate chemistry. “I tried to make her laugh, but I made her angry instead,” Kian narrated like a tragicomedy.
- Ye-eun’s artwork shifted midway from landscape to abstract expression—an emotional swirl of colors and chaos that mirrored her mental state. It was bold, erratic, and authentically her.
- Dex’s sketch was a comedic masterpiece in disguise: a serene mountain scene featuring Ye-eun smiling on the outside, angry on the inside. Her clenched fist and forced grin had everyone laughing, even Ye-eun.
As they drew, the group opened up. Ye-eun candidly shared how prepping for a firefighter’s exam helped her mentally stabilize during career uncertainty. Dex reflected on burnout and how he’s redefining his work-life mindset. These emotional disclosures added surprising depth to a day that began as lighthearted fun.
Art, Laughter, and Reflection in Kian’s Class
The sketch session wasn’t just about drawing—it became a safe space for honest conversations, self-deprecating humor, and unexpected nostalgia. Ye-eun revisited her SNL audition days, reenacting her skit from Decision to Leave with comedic precision. Kian and Dex, both amused and impressed, respected her passion—even as they teased her dramatic delivery.
As Kian reflected on how far they’d come since their SNL days, the tone shifted. Despite the teasing and awkwardness, he clearly valued the emotional growth all three had undergone.
Kian’s Art Class Becomes Something More
What began as Kian84’s quirky art lesson in the wild turned into something deeper: a portrait of connection painted through humor, empathy, and shared vulnerability. With brushes and banter, this unusual trio revealed that the best kind of art class doesn’t just teach technique—it uncovers character.
Kian’s attempt to create a whimsical sketching session turned into a snapshot of something rare: unfiltered bonding between three very different people. It wasn’t just about what ended up on the paper—it was about what was expressed between the lines.
