Thirteen members of Seventeen appeared in Cut Two Show on SBS radio recently.
The group surprised the studio audience about their routine in going to the bathroom.That each one wants to keep watch of each other, especially in shows so they could be on time.
A listener reported that while they were on break, he overheard THE8 giving Vernon thirty seconds to use the bathroom. It was during a recess in a performance for which the listener went to see the group.
It was confirmed later that they have to go buddy system (three of them, in fact) when they go to the bathroom. For one, they cannot be too far from each other.
With the team having so many members, it will take them too much time to finish a business as simple as going tot he restroom. Going in with three members each time enables them to tend to other important tasks they need to do as a group.
Quite a practical way to beat their schedules. Each one can go quicker to attend to their individual or group commitments. It was also made known that it is the set up where the group stays, a dormitory.
Seventeens' fandom land had mixed reactions to hearing what transpires among the individual member's daily routines. Likewise, fans are in disbelief when the sneak peek into the rush they must put up with was exposed.
To attend to their personal and group appearances, rehearsals and promotion schedules, they have to manage to come on time.
Pledis Entertainment leads the boyband team composed of thirteen male performers. They are distributed according to their training as hip hop, performance, and vocals.
Only one of them, (Jun-weibo) surprisingly, has a social media account. The company manages their Twitter account as well. A self-producing group, all members are involved in the discography, choreography, and production of their songs.
They do not have that luxury of a spared time. Given the significant number to handle, there is no chance to dilly-dally. They need every minute count, even the necessary business of going to the bathroom.
