Since HYBE moved buildings, artists have visited and shared the beauty of the company, whether it’s the rooms, the size, or even the food.

During a recent video, Hoshi started talking about HYBE and all the perks of the company, including the high standards of ramen.
Talking about the high ceilings and face recognition, the idol was asked about the elevators by host Jang Do Yeon as she added that there is an artists-only elevator in their office.

Hoshi explained that HYBE only had one elevator for artists, and considering how many stars are signed to the company, it’s not surprising it meant there would be a wait.

He then explained that with so many idols and only a few options for floors, you had to wait for ages for it to get to the main car park. He added, “You have to wait until it comes back down. You have to wait for so long.”

Hoshi then shared how it led to an unexpected interaction with one of HYBE’s youngest groups, NewJeans.

While Hoshi is known for being quite confident, he is still an “Introvert.” He explained he got very shy, and even when the members assured him it was okay, he waited.
