“Just an energetic fan boy” — Internet left reeling after SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan gets shut down by bodyguard while trying to greet VIVIZ at a concert

SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan is all over social media for his recent interaction with VIVIZ members at their Seoul concert. On July 5, the trio held the first show of the 2025 VIVIZ World Tour [New Legacy] at the Olympic Hall in Seoul. Seungkwan, along with Ungjae, attended the show in the audience and caught fans' attention when a hilarious incident took place.

VIVIZ members Eunha, SinB, and Umji visited the seats at the back to greet their fans. The SEVENTEEN member's seat was also at the back, and he was seen holding his phone camera and light stick, cheering for the group. SinB recognized Seungkwan and burst into laughter upon seeing him there. Notably, Seungkwan is a close friend of VIVIZ's SinB and Umji.

However, one of VIVIZ’s bodyguards was unaware of Seungkwan’s identity and, believing he was a fan, seemingly asked him to sit down.
