TV Show Digest  

The South Korean boy band, NCT plays a funny and exciting game of Halloween Manito, also called Secret Santa. All of the team members transform into different characters for Halloween. All the members are divided into teams, starting with Jungwoo dressed as Bella and Taeyong dressed as Edward from the famous Twilight series. All of the members were provided with a table in front of them comprising various candies, jellies, drinks, and chocolates. They also have small containers in front of them that include the names of the people in their group. They have to pick a container individually and pick out a chit, and whatever name comes up on the chit, they’ll create a gift bag for them. We then have Chenji as a soccer player, Jichen as Pinocchio and Jisung dressed as a haunted Nun from The Nun. Then Kun appears as Kaonashi and Yangyang as Ken Kaneki, and Johnny is dressed as an adorable polar bear, whereas Taeil is dressed as a boxer from Korea. Other members, such as Shotaro is dressed as Jigsaw, Sungchan is dressed as the Joker, Yuta is dressed as Rurouni Kenshin, Doyoung is dressed as a random TV series character, Mark is dressed as Spiderman, Jaemin, and Jeno were dressed as the red team member from the Squid Games, Haechan and Jaehyun were dressed as vampires, Xiaojun was dressed as Venom, and lastly Hendery was dressed as Criminal in the shadow. The members create gifts for their members and also write letters and messages for them. They then exchange their gifts with each other and open up their presents to see what they have received.
