From TWICE's "Dance the Night Away" to IZ*ONE's "Secret Story of the Swan," these five encore stages went viral for unique reasons!
1. TWICE - 'Dance the Night Away'
On July 3, 2018, TWICE won first place on "Music Bank" for "Dance the Night Away." TWICE had promised fans that they would eat ice during the encore stage. And they kept their promise!
TWICE was handed cups of ice as they performed, and the members quickly stuffed their faces.
The reason this encore stage went viral is because of Nayeon! The TWICE member did not realize the camera was focused on her and placed a massive chunk of ice in her mouth. It was so big that it caused her cheeks to puff out!
Nayeon quickly noticed that the camera was focused on her, and she covered her mouth in shock. The members, especially Dahyun, were seen laughing at the sight.
The other members, such as Jihyo, were also stuffing their faces.
2. aespa - 'Savage'
On January 16, 2021, aespa won first place on "Show! Music Core" for "Savage."
The girl group won against ITZY, who was promoting "LOCO" at the time. Despite being rivals for first place, the two groups showed how close they were when ITZY lingered on stage to congratulate, sing, and dance with aespa.
What caught people's eyes the most was seeing how close Ryujin and Karina were! Ryujin was the ITZY member that lingered on stage the most and mostly stuck with Karina before leaving.
However, all the ITZY members appeared friendly with the aespa members!
For this stage, the IZ*ONE member stuffed the pockets of their skirts with confetti. Then, as they sang, they would grab confetti from their pockets and throw it up in the air like a party!
The reason this fancam went viral is because of Jang Wonyoung! Jang Wonyoung was seen digging through her pockets for confetti throughout the stage. She went viral because of how adorable she looked, reaching for the confetti and how happy she seemed when she was able to throw it in the air.
4. Jeon Somi - 'What You Waiting For'

This is Jeon Somi's first win as a soloist. During her encore stage, the idol ate a lemon. She went viral for her funny reaction to eating lemon - her face could not hide how sour the lemon was! She also took a huge bite, causing lemon juice to spill on the floor.
Additionally, this stage also went vial because she broke her trophy! The idol was going crazy celebrating, dancing with the trophy, when the head suddenly fell off! Jeon Somi appeared shocked and pouted, which led her dancers to join the stage and cheer her up.
