RIIZE‘s Anton has recently become a trending topic due to his hilarious recent appearance at the airport.

The young idol was seen fulfilling a playful punishment given to him by fellow member Sungchan during a fancon event in June. Sungchan had tasked Anton with donning a summer vacation outfit the next time they traveled abroad, and Anton did not disappoint.
