When it came to their first win performance, Vernon said that he remembered the day well, especially what he did while waiting to go on stage: eat fried octopus!

Wonwoo backed up his story and explained that after releasing “Pretty U,” their menu options for backstage food got “a little better.” They weren’t just limited to kimbap anymore but could also choose between stir-fried octopus with rice or pork with rice!

Mingyu took the reminiscing a step further and claimed he even remembered a smell from back then. The other members didn’t believe him at first until he said that the clothes given to them by the stylists had a specific smell; Vernon, S.Coups, and Wonwoo knew exactly what he was talking about!
