Yet, while everything was seemingly going to plan, Joohoney was in for the shock of his life when he was suddenly “kidnapped” for the MONSTA X show MONMUKGO. As he received flowers from the staff, they quickly put a headband on him and took him by one arm each, leaving Joohoney in shock.

Netizens found it absolutely hilarious, joking that while Joohoney should be celebrating all his achievements, the staff had different priorities.
