NCT Doyoung shows off his older brother charms in front of his younger brother Jonathan, who is ‘4 years younger than him’, on MBC‘s ‘I Live Alone’. Doyoung prepared a ‘Doyoung set’ for Jonathan, including sweet potato candies he made himself and a healthy juice with ginseng. How did Jonathan react?

The episode of ‘I Live Alone’ scheduled to air on the 13th will show NCT Doyoung and Jonathan engrossed in studying history.

In the video released by the production team before the broadcast, Jonathan visits Doyoung’s house. Seeing him naturally greeting Jonathan, Jeon Hyun-moo asks Doyoung, “Are you close with Jonathan?” Doyoung shows his affection for his younger brother Jonathan by saying, “I saw you on a broadcast and wanted to be close to you, so I got your number first” and “You have the same gag code.”


Doyoung makes sweet potato candy himself when Jonathan says he hasn’t eaten, and even makes a healthy juice with a whole ginseng root to give him the “Doyoung Set.” Key says, “I’m the youngest of the youngest (among us), but I act like an older brother in front of Jonathan,” and is pleased by Doyoung’s dependable behavior.

Jonathan, surprised by the visual of the delicious-looking sweet potato candy, tastes it despite Doyoung’s warning, “It’s really hot! Be careful!” Jonathan’s reaction of not knowing what to do as if his mouth is on fire makes people laugh. Also, he was caught drinking healthy juice and looking greatly embarrassed and exclaiming in admiration.


When Doyoung worries that the sweet potato candy might get stuck in his teeth, Jonathan says, “It‘s not supposed to get stuck... I’m a lucky beggar,” and shows a big smile with his gums, stealing everyone‘s attention. The close chemistry between Doyoung and Jonathan, who laugh at each other, can be seen on ‘I Live Alone’, scheduled to air at 11:10 PM on the 13th.
