GIMMITAP w. Minions #BOYNEXTDOOR #BND #RIWOO

What happened

Riwoo of K-pop group BOYNEXTDOOR dances in a "Gimmitap w. Minions" clip, and fans call him the group's main dancer. The clip is on BOYNEXTDOOR's own channel tagged #RIWOO and #BND, and most top comments come from 원도어 (Wondoor), BOYNEXTDOOR's official fandom, asking for more solo dance-challenge uploads during the hiatus before their next comeback.

Why Koreans care

In K-pop, agencies formally assign each member a title such as main dancer, and fans often treat solo dance clips like this one as evidence for that title: one comment reads "리우가 메댄인 이유" (Riwoo-ga medaen-in iyu, "the reason Riwoo is the main dancer"), using 메댄 (medaen), fan shorthand for 메인댄서 (main dancer). Between comebacks — a gap fans call 공백기 (gongbaekgi, the promotion-free hiatus) — official channels release short solo clips like this one specifically to keep the fandom engaged, which is why one commenter wishes the group well for its coming comeback and asks for more dance videos during the gap. Fans also frame these requests as correcting an imbalance, with several comments saying it's a waste that only 원도어 (Wondoor), BOYNEXTDOOR's official fandom, knows how skilled Riwoo is — a common fan motivation to push a member's specific talent toward wider recognition.

In the Korean comments

Most top comments treat this clip as proof of Riwoo's dance credentials: one reads "댄싱머신 리우 나가신다" ("Dancing machine Riwoo, here he comes") and another states "리우가 메댄인 이유" ("This is exactly why Riwoo is the main dancer") — majority. A second majority pattern ties requests directly to the group's promotion cycle: "일단 이번 컴백 준비 화이팅하고 공백기에는 춤 영상 많이많이 올려줬으면 좋겠다" ("Good luck with the comeback prep for now, and I hope you'll post lots of dance videos during the gap period") — majority. A fandom-flavored comment pushes for recognition beyond the existing fanbase: "춤 릴스 자주올려주세요! 잘하는 거 원도어만 알기 아까우니까 아낌없이 자랑좀 부탁" ("Please post dance reels often! It's such a waste for only 원도어 (Wondoor), BOYNEXTDOOR's official fandom, to know how good he is — please show him off generously") — fandom.

What the words mean

A foreign viewer running these comments through machine translation would likely read some as garbled nonsense. One comment — "이 사람 평소에는 차카니 100개 먹은 햄띠기처럼 생겻으면서 춤만 추면 정품 상히기형 되는거 엄청 감동…." (roughly, "this person normally looks like a harmless hamster, but the moment he dances he becomes the real deal — it's so moving") — is written in deliberately misspelled, baby-talk-style Korean, a cutesy comment style common in idol fandoms, not an error. A literal or machine translation would miss that it's genuine praise for the contrast between Riwoo's soft everyday image and how sharp he looks specifically when dancing.
