“JinJiDo” MC Partners GOT7’s Jinyoung And NCT’s Doyoung Get Flirty With Each Other, Showing Off Their Long-lasting Friendship
One of the most popular sets of Music Show MCs is the trio of GOT7‘s Jinyoung, BLACKPINK‘s Jisoo, and NCT‘s Doyoung, also known as JinJiDo. The three were the MCs for Inkigayo from February 2017 to February 2018, one of the longest-standing and legendary MC groups.
Being from each of the “Big 3” companies at the time (YG Entertainment, SM Entertainment, and JYP Entertainment) seemed to make the duo even more dynamic, along with their visuals!
Since the three departed the show, fans have been longing for more moments of the trio interaction and over time, have gotten a few crumbs, like when Jisoo mentioned JinJiDo…

Doyoung recently “re-debuted” as a member of new NCT subunit DoJaeJung, and has been promoting the release. Fans were hopeful that members of the MC trio would somehow be able to meet up, especially after Jinyong shared a photo of Doyoung before the release of “Perfume.”

Just a few days ago, Jinyoung shared a photo of a signed album to his story, with three bashful emoji. The album, one of DoJaeJung’s, featured a cute message from Doyoung to his “beloved” hyung.
To my beloved Nyeongwi hyung
We meet like this! Thanks so much, and let’s eat together sometime. I love you.
While this excited fans, the “JinDo” didn’t stop there. About a day later, a TikTok of the pair doing the “Perfume” challenge was shared to the official NCT account. In the video, the pair can be seen laughing together before starting the dance.
After the dance, Jinyoung approaches Doyoung, holding his face before completing what looks like a magic trick.
Jinyoung ends the video by showing off his signed album as Doyoung laughs in the background.
Eagle-eyed fans used photos of BH Entertainment’s building shared by actor Lee Hee Jun to figure out that Doyoung must have made the journey to Jinyoung’s label to deliver the album himself!
Seems like it was Doyoung who visited BH Entertainment himself (Jinyoung's agency) to give Jinyoung the album & ask him to do the Perfume Challenge 🥹
