A Netizen Runs Into NCT 127’s Taeyong While He Was Out With His Members — And Exposes His True (Drunk) Personality

NCT 127‘s Taeyong is known for having a particularly low level of alcohol tolerance among his members, and an encounter with a fan during a night out on the town is now hilariously exposing his true (drunk) personality.

Along with Jungwoo and Taeil, Taeyong has often been teased by his members for being a bit of a lightweight (even if Taeyong did get a bit better, according to Jaehyun).

Even in recent content that the group filmed for their 2 Baddies comeback, they are still joking about it. During the Fill It Up YouTube series, Taeyong had NCTzens laughing when he “challenged” Taeil to a mini-drinking contest.

And as usual, the members (namely Johnny) couldn’t help teasing them and Jungwoo about their low tolerance.

Yet, despite the similarity in tolerance between the three of them, it seems like Taeyong is still often the one who ends up the drunkest. According to the members, this is because Taeil is very strict about not going over his limit, while Taeyong has no such inhibition.

Considering this, perhaps it’s unsurprising that a fan witnessed him the way they did when he was out with his members. According to this fan, they saw Taeyong and some of his members at a restaurant. They had already had a few drinks and Taeyong was noticeably drunk. By coincidence, the people on the table next to them were celebrating a birthday…and drunk Taeyong enthusiastically joined in. In fact, Taeyong was so eager to join the birthday party that Jungwoo had to take him away.

Drunk Taeyong… 😭

OP met 127 by chance while they were eating and Taeyong seemed to have drank a lil too much so when the table beside them were celebrating a birthday, he stood up and clapped for them…! In the end, Taeyong didn’t want to leave so Jungwoo had to pull him out…

Even so, Taeyong still refused to leave, and he remained sitting there after his members left.

NCTzens couldn’t get enough of the hilarious story. By the sound of it, Taeyong’s drunk personality certainly “sounds like a good time”!

And the irony of Jungwoo, who is himself a lightweight, having to manage Taeyong was also particularly appreciated…
