Service is incorrectly selecting Pod listening on some different port - kubernetes

Question

I tried the Service definition example from here.
So, I created below Service:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: service-simple-service
spec:
selector:
app: MyApp
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 80
targetPort: 9376
And then to test the concept, I created below Pod:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: service-simple-service-pod
labels:
app: MyApp
spec:
containers:
- name: service-simple-service-pod-container-1
image: nginx:alpine
ports:
- containerPort: 9376
And I can see that a new Endpoint for this Pod is created, so all good till now, below is the output:
C:\Users>kubectl describe service/service-simple-service
Name: service-simple-service
Namespace: default
Labels: <none>
Annotations: <none>
Selector: app=MyApp
Type: ClusterIP
IP: 10.98.246.70
Port: <unset> 80/TCP
TargetPort: 9376/TCP
Endpoints: 10.244.0.8:9376
Session Affinity: None
Events: <none>
Then to test negative concept, I created below Pod.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: service-simple-service-pod-nouse
labels:
app: MyApp
spec:
containers:
- name: service-simple-service-pod-nouse-container-1
image: nginx:alpine
ports:
- containerPort: 9378
But to my surprise this Pod was also picked:
C:\Users>kubectl describe service/service-simple-service
Name: service-simple-service
Namespace: default
Labels: <none>
Annotations: <none>
Selector: app=MyApp
Type: ClusterIP
IP: 10.98.246.70
Port: <unset> 80/TCP
TargetPort: 9376/TCP
Endpoints: 10.244.0.10:9376,10.244.0.8:9376
Session Affinity: None
Events: <none>
My understanding of Service I created above was that Scheduler will look for any Pod having label as app: MyApp and running on port 9376, so my expectation was that since this Pod is running on port 9378 so it will not be picked up. So, my question is that why this "service-simple-service-pod-nouse" was picked up?
If someone says that my understanding was incorrect and Service only selects Pod based on Label, then my question is that since "service-simple-service-pod-nouse" Pod is listening on port 9378 then how "service-simple-service" Service can send traffic to this Pod?

Answer 1

Sevice will picked all the pods that are labeled as the label selector of that service. service-simple-service service will select all the pods that are labeled as MyApp because you tell in the service selector (app: MyApp). This is the common and expected behavior of label-selector, you can see the k8s official doc
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: service-simple-service
spec:
selector:
app: MyApp
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 80
targetPort: 9376
Update
Basically, a service get the requests and then it serves the traffic to the pods (those are labeled as the service selector), when a service take a pod then it opens a endpoint for that pod, when traffic comes to the service it sends those traffics in one of it endpoints(which is basically going to a pod). And the container port is basically the port inside the pod where the container is running.
