The night turned out to be a huge moment for the group as they won the “Record Of The Year” award (Daesang), though the emotional moment was “interrupted” in the best way possible.

However, it was a moment after their award acceptance that had fans praising Jaemin.

When a group moves in and out of the artist seating section at awards shows, the other idols usually stand and bow as they pass, especially when they receive awards.

As NCT DREAM made their way back to their seats after accepting their award, NewJeans, who were seated behind them began to stand to bow. Jaemin can be seen gesturing for them to remain seated as he sits down.

Fans thought the gesture was especially polite as the group had on short dresses and would have had to readjust their lap blankets in order to stand.
