These are only a few (kind ones) from the pages of comments written at the time. ŌĆ£Shotaro doesnŌĆÖt look like an NCT member. I thought they picked good looking people for NCT. I guess not.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm not part of the NCT fandom, but the new member does stand out a bit.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm a little disappointed because I expected a lot when they said they will reveal new members.ŌĆØ
And now, here are the comments for his fancam. ŌĆ£Sorry everyone but Shotaro clearly ate this whole performance.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£Everyone has their eyes on him to criticize but he literally is so polished already.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£This is his debut stage yet he didnŌĆÖt look nervous and he nailed it already.ŌĆØ Born in Japan in 2000, Shotaro is 21 years old this year, and his real name is Shotaro Osaka.
