TWICE member Nayeon's selfie wallpapers are currently a popular trend in Korea, with many people setting them as their phone's lock screen in hopes of attracting financial luck. This phenomenon gained significant buzz through social media platforms like Instagram, X, and YouTube Shorts, where users shared their personal experiences of unexpected monetary gains after using her photos.
The trend was further amplified by a mention on MBC's program "Omniscient Interfering View," which led to increased interest and searches for "Nayeon financial luck wallpaper." Popular selfie types include Nayeon holding a strawberry, resting her cheek on her hand, winking, or naturally smiling. Separately, Nayeon also made headlines for purchasing a 9.5 billion won building in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam, in May 2026, which is understood to be an investment property rather than a residence.
Local bloggers have shared their own anecdotes, with some reporting small lottery wins or event ticket successes after setting Nayeon's selfies as their wallpaper. While acknowledging that these are personal experiences and not scientifically proven, many participate for fun, finding that the wallpapers are aesthetically pleasing and brighten their phone screens, regardless of any financial outcome.
