NCT 127‘s Jaehyun made headlines when he appeared in the standing section of a recent festival.
On June 2, he attended the Seoul Jazz Festival, watching artists such as Lauv. In between singing with him on stage, Jaehyun was also busy watching the concert alongside hundreds of other fans.

The fact that he chanced being in the highly public venue despite his popularity showed how eager he was to watch the performances live. It was his first time since debut being in the crowd and not on stage, and it was obvious according to several fans!
They noted with full-on amusement that he did not follow proper concert etiquette. He didn’t seem to know that one should hold their phone at eye level when taking photos or videos of the stage.
Jaehyun, please…it’s supposed to be eye level. Everyone behind you will be taking a picture of your screen.

Because of his tall height and the way he held his phone above his head, the girl behind him had an obstructed view of the stage.

They joked that he could get away with breaking the unspoken rule because of who he is.

They couldn’t help but tease him for the innocent mistake, noting that they were finally alike as fellow fans of other artists.

Unfortunately, Jaehyun’s experience at the festival was marred by concert-goers who decided to watch him the entire time.
Jaehyun politely asked people around him to enjoying the performance together.. i think he wants everyone to pay attention to the stage not him 🥹pic.twitter.com/XjO9QBsCL6
