Red Velvet’s Joy and NCT’s Doyoung are the latest idols to show that friendship can blossom even in the competitive K-pop music industry.
Many K-pop idols have previously helped dispel the notion that the different groups and music labels are always at odds with each other. The industry boasts warmth and camaraderie underneath the tough and fierce exterior.
Red Velvet recently uploaded a video on the group’s official YouTube channel, giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at their stellar 2022 Dream Concert experience.
The girl group performed many of their beloved tracks, much to the pleasure of their fans. The group members, Joy, Irene, Seulgi, and Wendy, presented their spectacular choreography to Feel My Rhythm and earned praises for their famous “Blow Confetti” dance step at the concert.
The group’s fans are familiar with this iconic dance step, but one person in the audience, NCT’s Doyoung, confessed that he didn’t know the step. Upon hearing this, Joy amusingly scolded Doyoung, and their interaction radiated sibling energy, which fans thoroughly enjoyed.

As the group performed their last track, Feel My Rhythm, Joy enacted the iconic “Blow Confetti” step and received loud applause from the audience. She also took time out to teach fans the popular dance move.
In the group’s behind-the-scenes video, NCT’s Doyoung can be seen visiting the girls and having a conversation with them since he was the emcee for the concert. When asked if he knew the “Blow Confetti” dance step, he replied in the negative.
