Seulgi’s innocent mistake
Seulgi’s challenge was to wear monster hand gloves. However, it was difficult for her to wear it as she was already holding a mic, a huge bouquet, and a pair of monster gloves with a hairband. With her hands full, the K-pop idol managed to slide her hand in, however, when she tried to raise her hand, the middle finger was flashed at the audience.
