He knew the members would tease him for the reason.
Keeping the summer a hot one, SEVENTEEN‘s Mingyu shared a shirtless photo on Instagram that had fans running to cool down.
When discussing the photo during an Elle Korea interview, the idol gave a bit of background for the moment and why he’d had second thoughts about it afterward.
I drank beer and ate delicious food with Seungkwan, and I played volleyball with strangers. I think I posted this picture because I was so happy.

Looking back on it, Mingyu shared that he might’ve kept the photo to himself. He admitted, “I think I’ll think [it] through if I upload it again.” Mingyu had an understandable reason why.
Knowing his members might tease him, Mingyu explained why it was only a rare moment to show how much fun he’d been having abroad.
If I say, ‘I don’t like to show too much of my skin,’ my team members will tease me a lot, right?
I don’t like to show my skin intentionally. But, I think I wanted to say that I’m fully enjoying this.
— Mingyu
It looks like Carats will have to look forward to the photos Mingyu’s mom takes of him on their family vacations instead.
Watch Mingyu stay true to himself on showing—or not showing—a bit of skin.
