Singer Hong Kyung Min shared a “funny yet sad” moment after receiving a shocking version of an Affogato.
On the 14th, Hong Kyung Min took to his SNS to express his bewilderment, writing, “Wait… am I the one who’s wrong… what is this…?” He continued, “Is an Affogato originally supposed to be ice cream floating in coffee? Wasn’t it supposed to be coffee lightly poured over ice cream?”
He added his signature relatable reaction, “Why does this only happen to me… is this why they say you should just stick to what you usually eat… if I were going to drink it like this, I would have just ordered a coffee,” bringing laughter to his followers.
The photo he shared showed an Affogato that looked quite different from the typical “scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of espresso.” The large piece of ice cream was almost completely submerged in the coffee and melting, with foam filling the cup, making it look like something between a latte and a dessert.
This led to an unexpected “Affogato debate” online. Some netizens reacted saying, “That’s a normal Affogato,” “Every cafe has a different style,” and “That actually feels like the standard.” On the other hand, others agreed with him, saying, “Hong Kyung Min is right,” “Usually, you just pour an espresso shot over the ice cream,” and “At that point, it’s basically ice cream coffee.”
Other reactions included, “It feels like an ice cream latte where the ice cream already melted,” “It’s understandable that he’s flustered,” and “The part about sticking to what he usually eats is so funny.”
Hong Kyung Min’s relatable comments and bewildered reaction are currently becoming a hot topic among fans.
