In an interview with SUBUSU News, Jaemin and Jeno were asked which entertainment companies they considered the “Big 3.”

He immediately began listing SM Entertainment and JYP Entertainment, but paused when he got to the last.

Jaemin eventually picked Big Hit Entertainment as the final member of the “Big 3.” The MC responded with, “As expected, you know the current trend.”

The big 3 companies:

Jaemin: SM, JYP …. BigHit (?)
MC: as expected you know the current trends ~
Jaemin: it hasn’t been long since we were born

Netizens found the whole exchange hilarious for various reasons.

There was a caption that said “it cannot be that company” ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

ㅋㅋCute, he replied with sense

They suggested that he may have tried to get cues from the staff on what to say.

If you watch the video, he didn’t say it spontaneously, he looked a bit towards the staffs and probably thought that he shouldn’t go with YG given their situation so he said Big Hit ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋAnyways, it was hilarious ㅋㅋㅋ

Fans on Twitter who saw the interview pointed out that Jaemin wasn’t necessarily wrong.

They weren't yelling, were they.
And they are right. BigHit managed to outsell all 3. pic.twitter.com/fiEymXzrWu
