On April 27, 2022, THE BOYZ member Younghoon held a solo live stream through Naver's V Live. Six minutes into the live stream, Younghoon suddenly tells the fans that he wants to drink orange juice. He then explains that he believes that if he says it out loud, he will be able to drink it soon.
Younghoon was right. A few seconds after he told viewers, the door cracks open, and a staff member's hand is seen setting down a cup of orange juice. The idol is seen heading towards the door and taking the juice. He then takes a seat in front of the camera and shows his juice, raising a thumbs up and laughing.

People thought Younghoon came off as rude and that he sounded like a boss giving commands to his employee. Many also did not like that Younghoon did not greet nor thank the staff that gave him orange juice. Others say that if he knew staff members were near him, he could have just asked them for orange juice instead of causing a scene on his live stream.
Meanwhile, others say that his actions show how spoiled he is by the staff. People agree that it looks like he got used to it, so he did not greet or thank the staff member.
