S.Coups Blocks SEVENTEEN’s Access to His Credit Card on ‘NANA Tour’

SEVENTEEN

On January 5, the first episode of NANA Tour with SEVENTEEN finally aired, bringing excitement to the group’s fans with its unique concept. The show is a spin-off of the Korean travel reality show Youth Over Flowers, which is known for its unique format where the production team surprises the cast with spontaneous trips, often with little to no prior notice. It has featured locations like Peru, Zimbabwe, and more. The trips involve the cast completing tasks and winning games to ensure their survival in an unfamiliar environment.

In SEVENTEEN’s case, the members were whisked away to Italy after playing two shows in Tokyo, Japan last September as part of their FOLLOW Tour. Unfortunately, their leader S.Coups couldn’t join the tour or the Italy trip due to a knee injury. Instead, he sent the members a letter through Na Young-seok, the producer behind NANA Tour with SEVENTEEN. 

Jeonghan read the letter out loud in the first episode. It said, “Thank you for picking up my letter. I feel so sorry for you guys going without any preparation. You can use this card however you want. I’ll be waiting for you well in Korea. Have fun. I love you!”

S.Coups’s love for SEVENTEEN knows no bounds

The members were both surprised and touched to find that S.Coups had sent his credit card along with the letter, giving them the freedom to use it however they liked. Dino, the group’s youngest member, was put in charge of the card. But after watching his members’ enthusiastic spending, S.Coups blocked their access to the card mid-show.

Fans and the members alike thought what S.Coups did was amusing. Some thought Seungkwan’s purchase of a funny t-shirt was the last straw. (For the record, the shirt featured the Mona Lisa doing the “dabbing” dance move, which involves dropping the head and raising one arm while bending the other at the elbow.) Others felt S.Coups stopped overseas payments on his credit card after seeing Mingyu showing off a long receipt for all the groceries he bought on the trip. Apparently, S.Coups’s love for SEVENTEEN knows no bounds—except maybe when it comes to money.

Fans can catch the NANA Tour with SEVENTEEN every Friday on tvN Asia at 8.40 PM KST. More exclusive footage from the show is available for fans on Weverse. – K-Pop News Writer

SEVENTEEN’s DK and Hoshi Swap Toothbrushes on ‘NANA Tour’

On January 10, the second episode of the travel series NANA Tour with SEVENTEEN premiered. This show is a collaboration between The Game Caterers producer Na Young-suk and Youth Over Flowers producer Shin Ho-jung. It features the members of SEVENTEEN—minus leader S.Coups, as he was on hiatus at the time of filming—as the main cast.

The toothbrush mix-up

The episode began with the group’s arrival in Italy, where they moved into small rooms with bunk beds. DK, Hoshi, Joshua, and Mingyu found themselves sharing one of these rooms. Everything appeared to be going smoothly until a surprising incident the next morning: Hoshi discovered that DK had used his toothbrush.

At first, DK didn’t realize the mix-up but acknowledged the mistake upon finding his toothbrush in his drawer. In lieu of an apology, DK offered his unused toothbrush to Hoshi. Surprisingly, Hoshi accepted this offer without any reservations and casually asked if he had any toothpaste to share. This exchange, involving a highly personal item like a toothbrush, left fans both amused and shocked at their nonchalant attitude. Even Joshua, witnessing this exchange, was visibly surprised by their approach to the situation.

DK, noticing Joshua’s astonishment, tried to ease the tension with a lighthearted comment. “What?! We’re family! Who cares?!” he said with a laugh. This incident not only showcased the strong bond between the members but also became a topic of conversation among fans, highlighting the deep camaraderie within the group.

SEVENTEEN explored Italy like tourists

Interestingly, this wasn’t the first time DK was involved in a toothbrush mix-up. He previously used Mingyu’s toothbrush in a special version of their dance practice video for “Home.” This video was as a token of appreciation when the song’s official MV reached 17 million views on YouTube. 

Apart from the toothbrush incident, the show’s second episode was a hit for other reasons. Fans enjoyed seeing the members explore Italy like tourists. The segment where SEVENTEEN played games to win money for their trip also received a positive reception.

SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu Recalls Losing His Passport Before ‘Nana Tour’ Filming

SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu recently shared an amusing yet chaotic story that occurred just before the filming of the reality show NANA TOUR with SEVENTEEN. As the group’s fans are aware, Mingyu had a panic-inducing moment when he lost his passport, sparking a frantic search at the airport.

How did he even lost it😭 #mingyu #seventeen #svt #fyp #foryoupage

Mingyu disclosed an intriguing twist

The drama unfolded as SEVENTEEN arrived at the airport to depart for Italy, where they were set to film the show. It was while they were heading towards immigration that Mingyu realized his passport was missing. He immediately sat down and made urgent phone calls to various contacts for assistance. At the same time, Na Young-seok, the show’s Producing Director (PD), quickly mobilized the fans present to join in the search for the missing passport. After an intense ten minutes, the passport was found with a staff member, enabling Mingyu to successfully board the plane.

This incident was later brought up at a press conference for the show. It was held at the Eliena Hotel in Gangnam, Seoul. It was here that Mingyu disclosed an intriguing twist: his bandmate DK was the mastermind behind the incident, having decided to play a prank on him.

He shared, “I lost my passport from the first day. I was looking for my passport until just before the flight. Even the fans at the airport helped me, but I couldn’t find it. It turned out that DK had taken my passport and boarded the plane. And he took my plane ticket too. But in the end, I was able to board the plane after a lot of twists and turns. Fans also shared videos with the video PDs, so you can feel the desperation and urgency at the time.”

A promising start

DK was seated next to Mingyu at the press conference, where Mingyu affectionately gestured towards DK, playfully exposing him as the prankster by touching his shoulder. DK responded with a mischievous smile, eliciting laughter from everyone present. This playful interaction underscored the group’s fun-loving and lighthearted nature.

SEVENTEEN is renowned in the K-pop world not only for their music but also for their unique comedic flair. They frequently engage in hilarious challenges and pranks, both in interviews and on their variety show, Going SEVENTEEN. Their carefree and unfiltered approach to life has endeared them to both fans and non-fans alike.

NANA TOUR with SEVENTEEN, which debuted on January 5, started strong with a 2.1% viewership rating for its first episode. Considering it’s on a cable channel, this rating is quite respectable. The show aims to hit a 3% rating, similar to Earth Arcade Season 1, another show by the same producer, which began at 2.2% and reached 3.1%. Generally, for cable variety shows, achieving ratings between 2-4% is seen as successful, indicating a promising start for NANA TOUR with SEVENTEEN. – K-Pop News Writer
