NCT’s Johnny Asked A “Disgusting” Question About His Body During A Recent Fan Call
본문
While in-person fan signs were the standard for years, video calls have allowed fans worldwide to chat with idols from the comfort of their homes.
ATEEZ’s Mingi | KQ Entertainment Just like in-person events, staff monitors these calls closely to prevent idols from dealing with winners who may be disrespectful or inappropriate.

WINNER during a video call event. Recently, a video clip of NCT‘s Johnny has gone viral for all the wrong reasons, with many fans considering it sexual harassment.
NCT’s Johnny | SM Entertainment Like other video calls, the OP of this video asks Johnny about a scenario where a choice is required. Instead of the cute options given in some other cases, this OP asks Johnny an uncomfortable question about what he would cover if forced to go outside naked.
Johnny plays along a bit, saying he would at least grab a towel.

OP: Imagine you are now in a shower and [the] apartment’s fire alarm has just been triggered and you don’t really have the time to get dressed and you only have one free hand. So would you choose to run out of the building with your face covered or your, you know private parts.
Johnny: I will, I will just grab a towel, at least a towel.
The OP insists on a different answer, repeating that he doesn’t have time to grab anything, and Johnny says that he’d just be naked.
