After wondering whether they could, the members walked up to the two girls. They politely asked the two girls if they could interview them, and the man next to them quickly walked away, as he was seemingly uncomfortable with the camera being on.

While it may have just seemed normal at the start and Joshua probably just wanted to speak to someone, netizens noticed that the members did it to protect the girl they interviewed.

In particular, they noticed that there was a man sitting very close to the two girls on the bench. Yet, as soon as the members walked towards them, he quickly walked away when he noticed he was being filmed. Many believe the members knew the girls were uncomfortable and went to warn him off.

After the episode aired, the video quickly spread online, and although it wasn’t obvious at the time, netizens did realize that something seemed off. As expected, the comments were full of netizens praising the members, and while they all played their part, they particularly praised Joshua for initiating the protection.

For many fans, it was proof that they stanned the right group as SEVENTEEN are always gentlemen, and the fact they went out of their way to speak to the girls, knowing they were in trouble, showcases their true personalities.
