Beomgyu has made his beloved pet parrot pretty well-known throughout his time with TXT. He revealed the origin story of how he came to adopt Toto in an interview with Weverse Magazine.
Before he adopted Toto, his family had a dog named June that he and his brother loved. After having June for a while, they came to realize that a puppy was too much responsibility and they could not keep her.
Though he didn’t give the specifics on how he came to get Toto, he stated that a parrot was the perfect fit for his family because they are so independent.
