Similar situations occur in many other groups.
In the first place, at the red carpet site, compared to the main performance, the number of fans was small and time was tight, so the MC said a brief greeting, asked a question or two, and then immediately left for photo time, so the fans were unable to respond individually to every comment.
Moreover, it is even more difficult to respond when, like Winter, you make a comment so quickly and then immediately hand over the mic.
Moreover, it appears that there were many Chinese fans at the scene that day.
When the first member said hello in Japanese, there was no response, but when the second member said hello in Chinese, there was suddenly loud cheering.
Two NCT Wish members greeted each other in Korean and Japanese, but there was no response.
Even Baby Monster didn’t respond when I greeted him in Korean.
The red carpet is limited to 3 fans per singer.
