The Duolingo Owl Appears To Have A Crush On ENHYPEN’s Heeseung

An unexpected person(?) has seemingly announced his feelings for ENHYPEN‘s Heeseung — The Duolingo owl.

With many K-Pop fans speaking languages other than Korean, several are likely familiar with Duolingo. Duolingo is a language app that is available for free on most devices and allows users to brush up their skills on over 40 languages.

While the app has several mascots, the most familiar is Duo, the iconic owl featured in most advertisements and lessons.

In recent years, Duo has taken on a personality of his own, first becoming a meme due to the constant reminders to study. With establishing the company’s TikTok account, Duo has found himself in several unexpected places, including the Barbie movie premiere and with Billy, the doll from Saw.

Duo was previously known to have feelings for artist Dua Lipa, but after many missed opportunities, it seems the owl has found a new love target.

In a TikTok shared on October 12, Duo seems to react strongly to an edit of Heeseung, using a Brittany Broski audio to express his interest.

While this was wild enough, Duo edited a photo of Heeseung posted after the group’s concert in Glendale. He drew himself into the picture wearing a bikini and showing off his abs.

Fans have found Duo’s new crush hilarious but warned the bird that he needs to “get in line.”
