NCT's Chenle is a certified successful fanboy as his favorite basketball player, Stephen Curry has just started noticing him!
Previously this week, Chenle participated with NCT members Mark and Johnny in a YouTube video, where they proceeded on a three-step quest to get Stephen Curry to notice them via YouTube. In the Youtube clip, the basketball icon saw Mark and Johnny trying to teach Chenle little English to support him get recognized by the NBA Superstar. After all the preparations they made, a tweet was just all they needed.
Chenle tweeted on Thursday, August 6, that he enjoyed the English lessons he got from his co-members Marky and Johnny, expressing his intentions to meet his idol Stephen Curry, as soon as possible. To his surprise, the NBA basketball superstar replied to his tweet, saying, "Once the world gets back to normal, let's make it happen!" And he replied with excitement calling Curry, a GOAT!

Chenle's experience is every fan girl and fan boy's greatest dream to be noticed by their absolute favorites. The artist was adamant about his significant admiration for Stephen Curry. His supporters first discovered his interest in basketball and Stephen Curry through browsing his Weibo activity feed. In addition to following Stephen Curry on the site, Chenle has produced and shared dozens of posts about the basketball star.
During the band NCT's Empathy era, Chenle expressed his desire to meet the basketball star in person through writing in his journal with his co-member Jisung. He didn't forget to drew Stephen Curry's basketball team logo to show his undying support for his team.
Chenle also got three pairs of Curry 6 footwear from Under Armour and a couple of 7 footwear from the Curry. The Curry 7 is a limited edition and has produced only 120 pairs. There is a possibility that the idol might have more. This only serves to prove he's a passionate supporter.
