While smoking is still something that can earn critical reactions, fan reactions can vary widely from group to group.

However, fans of NCT have general reacted with the most unique responses out there.
As the group arguably caught smoking the most times over the years — ranging from members of the subunit WayV, to the group’s leader Taeyong, there have been many accidental cases of members showing off their smoking paraphernalia, usually vapes (outside of an occasion with member Jungwoo).

Recently, NCT DREAM member Jeno was the most recent to make an accidental post, swiftly deleting it after fans realized.
While many fans have adopted the same “DGAF” attitude as in previous instances, some have reacted a bit differently.
After the supposed brand and flavor of Jeno’s vape was discovered, it seems fans who were curious about it went out and bought it themselves.
This was reposted on X, where the discussion of fan reaction went viral.
