• "I can't handle this!" — SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu and Woozi drive fans wild with shirtless pool photos on Instagram

    SEVENTEEN's Mingyu recently posted some pool photos on Instagram that have left fans in awe of his amazing physique.

    However, he wasn't alone in the photos - another member, Woozi, was also featured, causing even more excitement among CARATs.

    SEVENTEEN had just performed at the "Tencent Music Entertainment Awards 2023" in Macau and it seems like they took some time to relax by the pool.

    Mingyu's shirtless photos were already enough to cause a stir, but the addition of Woozi, who is known for his love of working out but has never really shown off his figure, sent fans into a frenzy.

    Woozi had recently teased fans by showing off his abs for the first time in an editorial with members Vernon and Hoshi.

    And now, with Mingyu's post featuring a shirtless Woozi lying next to him in the pool, fans couldn't contain their excitement.

    Woozi added to the excitement by posting his own shirtless pool photo and teasing fans even more. The two also had some fun online discussing whether Mingyu had permission to post the photos or not.

    Here are some comments from netizens:

    "OMG Mingyu and Woozi shirtless together? I can't handle this!"

    "Woozi's abs are unreal! Thank you Mingyu for sharing these photos!"

    "SEVENTEEN is killing us with these pool photos! I need more!"

    "Mingyu and Woozi are both so hot! I can't believe they're teasing us like this!"

    "I can't believe Woozi posted his own shirtless photo! He knows exactly what he's doing to us!"
