Actress Go Jun-hee Recalls Being Stopped at Customs with a Luxury Bag: 'Couldn't Call the Department Store at 6 AM'
Actress Go Jun-hee has shared a memorable experience of being stopped by customs while carrying a luxury handbag after returning from an overseas shoot.
A video titled 'Chanel Story Bought for 1.2 Million Won... I'll Reveal Everything' was uploaded to her YouTube channel 'Go Jun-hee GO' on the 3rd.
In the video, Go Jun-hee introduced her collection of Chanel bags, revealing how she began purchasing them with her own money in her 20s. She explained that her parents managed her finances strictly, allowing her only 10% of her earnings to spend, which meant she had to work incredibly hard to afford a Chanel bag.
She shared how the thought, 'If I wake up now, I can buy a Chanel bag,' motivated her to work relentlessly. She recounted a particularly amusing anecdote related to the first Chanel bag she bought with her own money.
Go Jun-hee detailed the incident at Incheon International Airport customs when she was caught carrying the bag after returning from a shoot abroad. She recalled the difficulty of presenting a receipt for a bag purchased at a department store when arriving on a 6 AM flight, and how she eventually got through the situation thanks to customs officers who recognized her.
She humorously added that her makeup artist at the time scolded her, asking why she would bring a Chanel bag on a work trip, which elicited laughter from viewers.
Netizens responded to the video with comments like, "It seems Go Jun-hee really loves Chanel," "The customs story is so funny," and "Thank you for the honest and fun story," showing their amusement and empathy towards her witty tales.
