You read that right, NCT member Ten has an unusual fear of fruits. Although strong dislike might be the more proper term for it, as he accidentally ate one in the past, Ten has confessed his strong dislike for it stems from being caught off-guard by the different textures of fruits. In addition, he is also not a fan of their smell and their insides, making him afraid to eat it as it also makes him feel nauseous. However, Ten did like to eat fruits when he was a kid.
