Stone Music Entertainment‘s 4-member boy group B.D.U debuted in June after being formed through Mnet‘s reality competition program Build Up: Vocal Boy Group Survival.
The group consists of ONE PACT‘s Jay Chang, M.O.N.T‘s Bitsaeon, CIX‘s Seunghun, and Kim Minseo. They recently embarked on B.D.U First World Tour for Wishpool: Flash & Light.

The members talked about their first time in the city, and Bitsaeon mentioned Chicago’s famous pizza. Yet, they shocked the audience by revealing they had eaten at Hooters, a famous American sports bar chain known more for the waitresses’ revealing uniforms than its food or drinks.
Jay explained that Hooters was the closest restaurant to their hotel. This is why they went.

The audience hilariously started a chant for Hooters. This made some members laugh while others joined in on the chant!

Very few idols would confess to visiting Hooters on their tour. So, we gotta love B.D.U for keeping it real!
