D.O.’s “Unbothered” Ending Fairy Moment

When Jonathan Thona inquired if D.O. had practiced this unique pose, the EXO member playfully admitted that he did indeed practice it. He acknowledged that his “side look” was a result of his desire not to reveal any exhaustion or fatigue to the audience.

D.O.’s Unique Trend

In the end, while D.O. might have found traditional ending poses awkward, he inadvertently created his own trend with his “unbothered” ending fairy moment. This episode of “The K-Star Next Door” offered fans a delightful glimpse into D.O.’s personality and his perspective on the ever-evolving world of K-Pop.
