[SBS Star] Disbanded NU'EST Kim Jonghyeon Seen Checking His Birthday Ads Out in a Puppy Costume

Kim Jonghyeon of disbanded K-pop boy group NU'EST was spotted going around a mall, checking his birthday advertisements out in a cute puppy costume. 

At noon on June 8, Kim Jonghyeon notified the start of his birthday tour titled 'Jjong-yi Tour' via Instagram. 

A little while after the upload, a guy in an adorable puppy costume appeared at Starfield COEX Mall located in Samseong-dong, Seoul. 

Not only did he have his signature character Pokemon's Squirtle bag on the back, but he was also holding the 'Jjong-yi Tour' flag; it was obvious 'the puppy' was Kim Jonghyeon. Every year on his birthday, Kim Jonghyeon held the same sort of special event for fans, where he put a costume on and looked at birthday advertisements prepared by fans. 

Back in 2018, he turned into the Squirtle himself, and in 2019, he was a grizzly bear wearing a top hat and ribbon. 

Unfortunately though, he was unable to go on his birthday tour in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 
With this cute puppy costume, Kim Jonghyeon walked about the mall with his manager. 

They stopped at birthday advertisements, and 'the puppy' took a moment to appreciate fans' heartfelt gift. 

He was even seen 'crying' when watching one of the video birthday advertisements as well.
