Recently, a member of JYP Entertainment’s newest boy group NEXZ suffered a wardrobe malfunction on stage.
NEXZ’s Yu
NEXZ just kicked off their SAUCIN’ THE WORLD Asia tour with two dates in Seoul on October 17 and 18. This is the group’s first Asian tour following previous Japanese tours.

At one point in the show, the members were dressed in black-and-red outfits, with member Yu wearing what appeared to be a jumpsuit, the upper portion hanging around his waist. At times, the idol could be seen adjusting his outfit as it appeared to ride low.

At one point, Yu does a backflip, which he successfully lands, but his pants slip down to his waist. The idol fixes them pretty quickly, laughing with a bit of embarrassment showing.

Many commented on the situation, praising Yu’s reaction to the moment as professional, while criticizing the stylist behind the outfit.
I wasn’t at the concert but out of pure respect and love for Yu, I deleted my RT and QRT. The uploaded videos aren’t mine and they’ve unfortunately already spread across many social platforms… what I can say is that he handled the situation very well and he safely landed after… https://t.co/B7I6fE8BZ9

i laughed at first but now im pissed at the stylist like they know yu flips and bboys all the time so why would you not secure his pants well enough to prevent this. bro, imagine the outrage if this happened to a girl group.

Thankfully, it appears the situation was resolved — during the second night, Yu successfully landed the flip without his pants coming down.
