The saga of actress Kim Tae-ri's adorable reaction to her forgetful nature about masks at the airport continues.

On September 20, 2022, the Twenty-Five, Twenty-One actress arrived at the Incheon International Airport to depart for Prada's Fashion Show in Paris. She looked like her usual age-defying self wearing a comfortable black denim outfit. As she walked inside the airport, she realized she had forgotten to wear a mask.

Kim Tae-ri's reaction to it looked both hilarious and adorable to fans. The actress stopped in her tracks and went back a few steps. Her hands instantly reached her pockets and then the purse.

The actress' hair covered her entire face as she dug through her small sling to take out the mask. A few staff members rushed to help her too. She finally found the mask, wore it, turned around, and greeted the media and audience at the airport.

Needless to say, the reaction went viral as the clip was viewed 1.1 million times on Twitter at the time of writing this article.
