After singing some parts of the typical version of her hit song "NUNU NANA," Jackson appeared on stage after the first chorus of the track and showcased his incredible rap and dancing skills. Aside from these, fans noticed that Jackson's left hand was stiff and stayed off of Jessi's chest area when he placed his arm around her shoulder.
Such a proper and courteous placement of hands is commonly called "manner hands." Generally, this refers to male celebrities in South Korea not touching female acquaintances or fans out of respect when posing for a photo or standing beside them.
And because of his "manner hands," GOT7's Jackson got lots of praises for being a total gentleman toward Jessi. Not only that, but fans also saw how the male idol kept his eyes closed whenever he stood face-to-face with Jessi up close. Even while delivering the song, Jackson made sure to be a gentleman, thus causing fans to fall in love with him even more. Additionally, fans are asking for a formal collaboration between Jackson and Jessi
This is not the first time that GOT7's Jackson showed how gentleman he can be toward females. One of the most unforgettable times was when he confronted a certain photographer who pushed a GOT7 fan to the ground and told him not to push girls. Apart from Jackson, all of his fellow GOT7 members are also known for being a total gentleman and fans can prove that.
Meanwhile, GOT7's Jackson also performed with his bandmates at the 2020 KBS Song Festival. The boy band delivered its 2017 song "OUT" and its most recent release "Last Piece." The group's 2016 track "Hard Carry" was also performed at the music show, but it was sung by ASTRO's Moonbin, NCT's Shotaro, Stray Kids' Hyunjin, and The Boyz's Juyeon.
In other news, GOT7's Jackson was revealed to be included on the Forbes China Celebrity 100 list. In particular, the singer was at No. 41. Moreover, Jackson has recently released a collaboration song titled "Should've Let Go" with C-Pop vocalist JJ Lin. Released on Dec. 17, "Should've Let Go" is described as a classic Chinese pop ballad that reflects on some of the regretful things in life, wishing we could repeat or turn back time.
