On December 9th, NCT member Jungwoo trended on Twitter as fans became shocked to discover that a photo of him smoking surfaced online.
The photo quickly spread on portal sites like wildfire despite fans' attempts to stop the photo from spreading. Since then, there have been multiple tweets from NCT fans shielding the idol claiming he is an adult, therefore, he has the freedom to do as he wishes.
In today’s weird Kpop news we have NCT 127 to talk about, sort of! About 12 minutes ago, a hacker group known as “OurMine” hacked NCT 127 official twitter account to advertise their services. The hackers stated that they haven’t changed the account information and the hack was simply done to remind SM that the account needs better security.
However, there were still a few netizens and fans who were disappointed to discover the photo of Jungwoo being caught in the act of smoking a cigarette. His name quickly trended worldwide on Twitter as many Twitter users shared the information of this news.
Twitter recently added a new feature called Spaces, and NCT is the first K-Pop group to put it to good use. Spaces allows you to start a voice chat with people you select. While there is no limit to the number of listeners, there is a maximum of 10 people who can speak at a time. Currently, Spaces is still in the early stages and is only available to a small group of users. However, anyone on iOS should be able to join, at least as a listener.
Mark initiated a “NCT’s space” and acted as a moderator for this event. He handled all the technical difficulties professionally while also being personable throughout the entire thing, making NCTzens feel like they were just on a call with friends. Jungwoo joined him from the NCT 127 account. The other members who joined “NCT’s space” were Yangyang, Xiaojun, and Ten from WayV‘s account.
Ten: Mark, is this online?
Mark : Yeah dude we’re on live yo
🐱We are on live rn?
🍉You gotta be careful with your language ㅋㅋ
🐱I thought we are callin

Jeno tried to join from the NCT DREAM account. Unfortunately, he couldn’t hear the other members when it started. As a result, he had a conversation with himself.
this part is so cute and funny to me 😂
ten: mark, can jeno hear us?
mark: um idk, he keeps on coming back and forth. i think it's the network problem~
jeno: (you're saying) i could hear if i update it..? update? update what..? 😭
mark: jeno is in his own world right now 😂 pic.twitter.com/AYQKJi2SQr

Jeno tried to join in on the group’s conversation a few times with no success. A lot of jokes were told at his expense while he was the victim of technical difficulties.

Although NCTzens couldn’t talk during the conversation, Mark and Jungwoo made them feel more included by reading some of the participants’ display names. Thankfully, nothing too embarrassing was said. 😂

With the “Kick Back” music video having just been released, the boys had to promote WayV’s comeback! At the start, Jeno and Mark briefly talked about the music video, which led Jeno to sing.
jeno: hello?
mark: did you watch wayv mv?
jeno: i watched it (singing kick back a little bit) pic.twitter.com/sy1x3lryqh

Later, the rest of the crew sang some of the chorus! We got WayV featuring Mark and Jungwoo.

NCT is a diverse group with members of all backgrounds that try to be inclusive. As an example, Jungwoo tried to speak some English when Mark was talking.

Jungwoo’s random english reactions when Mark was speaking 😂
MK: (..) Connection is kinda off
JW: Mm hmm

Likewise, when the WayV members joined, Mark attempted to speak the little bit of Chinese he knows. It ended up being a language lesson for Mark.
learning chinese with WayV
mark: xiaojun! xiaojun!
xiaojun: yeah, man!
mark: (chn) have you eaten?
ten: 😂 (chn) he’s eaten x2
xiaojun: (chn) i’ve eaten x2
mark: uh, (chn) are you here?
xiaojun: (chn) yes, i’m here right now 😅

They all had in common that they had worked on “90’s Love” together. That is except for Jungwoo, who started to feel left out.

Jeno: Oh looking at it now, besides Jungwoo, we’re all 90’s love members
Mark: Ah no there’s Xiaojun too
Jungwoo: Oh?! I.. i feel so left out?! Hey.. let’s not talk about things like that! I’ll be sad!! I’m sad!!
Cute ㅋㅋㅋ

Someone else who felt left out was Jeno, as he continually struggled with technical difficulties. Since the others could hear him, but he couldn’t hear them, Mark thought of another way to include him. He called him on the phone and put him on speakerphone so he would be able to talk with everyone. Once on the call, poor Jeno said, “I couldn’t hear at all. It kind of felt like I was doing a voice-only VLIVE by myself.”
mark: i think it's the right [thing to do] for jeno to talk over the phone
jungwoo: but why didn't it work for you?
mark: could you hear our voices?
jeno: i couldn't hear at all, it kind of felt like i was doing a voice only vlive by myself pic.twitter.com/WKRri86Dev

Perhaps the best moment to come from this entire thing is Mark and Jungwoo singing “Simon Says” provoked by a sneeze! Only NCT can make something as trivial as sneezing into a hilarious joke.

Although there’s still a lot to get used to with the new feature, Twitter Spaces seems like a great option for the entirety of NCT to connect with both each other and fans, despite the distance. We’re looking forward to the feature being available to everyone soon so that more K-Pop groups will host their own Spaces.
NCT Twitter Space was 40% Jungwoo joking around, 34% Mark talking, 25% WayV members talking and 1% Jeno having a hard time with the connection 🤣 #NCTzensOnSpaces#NCTSPACE#TwitterSpaceWithNCTpic.twitter.com/IPeg6bTQaa
