In a world where K-pop concerts are known for their high-energy performances and meticulously planned choreographies, unexpected events can sometimes steal the show. Such was the case during NMIXX's "NICE TO MIXX YOU" showcase tour earlier this year, where the spotlight was momentarily shifted from the group's dazzling dance moves to an unexpected guest: an infant.

During one of their performances, NMIXX, who had been captivating audiences with their pitch-perfect harmonies and dynamic stage presence, was taken by surprise when a baby made an unanticipated appearance on stage. The incident, which left both fans and netizens in shock, was recounted by the group in an exclusive interview with Billboard.

Kyujin, one of NMIXX's members, vividly described her reaction to the sudden intrusion. Still reeling from the unexpected turn of events, she animatedly shared her disbelief at the situation. "It looked so dangerous so I gave the baby [back to the] baby's mom," Kyujin recounted, emphasizing the responsibility she felt in that critical moment. Her swift action in ensuring the baby's safety was commendable, showcasing her presence of mind and concern for the well-being of the young fan.

 

Lily, another NMIXX member, expressed that such an incident was unprecedented in their experience. Tetris, the interviewer known for his wit, humorously remarked that this was likely a first for the K-pop scene. While the situation was unexpected, NMIXX's professionalism shone through as they handled the situation with grace, ensuring the safety of the infant and continuing with their performance.

The online community was abuzz with reactions to the incident. Many fans, known as NSWERs, expressed their concern for the baby's safety in such a high-energy environment. Some criticized the parent for bringing the infant to the concert, while others praised Kyujin for her quick thinking and compassionate response.

Tweets from fans captured the mixed emotions of the moment:
