inside nam kiyong’s phone | part 1/∞
instagram (public): to the public, he is known as axel kiyong nam. he currently has over 331k followers, and the count increases every winter olympic games. he received the iconic blue tick from instagram when he participated in the winter olympics pyeongchang 2018. many interviews have featured him having to explain his instagram handle to the point of it turning into a meme.
he posts mostly in english and has been banned from using emojis since winter olympics beijing 2022 in february 2022. it’s an ongoing joke among his skating friends as they all have been ‘diagnosed’ with the ‘gen z hieroglyphs disorder’ by their coaches - none of them are allowed to use emojis on instagram until one of them wins a gold medal. (sports people are weird.. yeah...)
sometimes his sister’s volleyball friends will comment on his posts and it always amazes him as he views volleyball players as aliens from a different world.
he rarely posts about his kyungwon adventures on this account, preferring to use another account to interact with his friends and classmates. but he does occasionally feature his close friends in his instagram stories when his PR manager bugs him to post an update to notify his fans that he’s still alive. the close friends charge him 1 week worth of meals per post.
