MONSTA X kicked out of McDonald’s TWICE during reality show mission!
MONSTA X’s early career hit a major cringe moment on MONSTA X: Right Now (2016) in Hong Kong. The boy group faced embarrassment after getting kicked out of McDonald’s—not once, but twice, all during the same day.
The drama started when GOT7’s Jackson gave the group an unusual mission:
Jackson:
Buy food from other places then eat them inside McDonald’s.
The members reluctantly accepted. For Attempt 1, they bought sizzling meals from Pepper Lunch in the food court and tried to eat inside McDonald’s. Rapper Joohoney struggled with doubt:
Joohoney:
“Jackson, you’re so mean…”
He questioned,
Joohoney:
“Are you sure I can do this?”
Despite the nerves, MONSTA X seated themselves with their outside food. But their plan quickly unraveled. The strong smell and different utensils tipped off staff, who asked them to leave immediately. Joohoney apologized profusely:
Joohoney:
“I am so sorry.”
Red-faced, they exited still holding half-finished food.
They had to try again later that same day.
For Attempt 2, they returned to the same McDonald’s location. This time, I.M bought McDonald’s food as a decoy while the others ate outside food.
Wonho:
“While one is a decoy to disperse attention, others should go in as a group.”
They found the same table but were spotted again. The staff kicked them out before I.M could prove they were customers. Once more, they left with their trays—embarrassed.
Wonho:
“I’m dying of embarrassment.”
They apologized again to McDonald’s management and fans from the food court after the double ejection:
Minhyuk:
“We’re really sorry to the manager and those who are interested in McDonald’s.”
