Laughing so hard at the QRTs. Was he supposed to stay still when they pointed a camera at him during the dance challenge? Are you not allowed to have fun anymore at 37? Or are you just jealous that he gets to be silly like this but still be considered THE trendsetter in Korea. https://t.co/AyebcnEGAL
