      SEVENTEEN has made history by becoming the first K-Pop group to appear on NPR Tiny Desk in the show's traditional location.

      This well-established online series has featured remarkable performances, showcasing artists from rap legends like Mac Miller—may he rest in peace—to shining pop divas.

      Now, SEVENTEEN has etched their name into Tiny Desk history as the first K-Pop act to perform at its longstanding office setting.

      —

      The performance took place in a corner of the NPR office, where SEVENTEEN surprised everyone by appearing as a five-member group—JOSHUA, MINGYU, SEUNGKWAN, VERNON, and DINO.

      Expected to have a calm and quiet atmosphere given the office backdrop, SEVENTEEN remarked, “It’s actually a concert.”

      Their fast-paced 10-song set has quickly captivated audiences online. “We’re having so much fun because of you all. We were honestly quite nervous to perform in this environment. Thank you for making us feel at ease. You've really boosted our confidence,” the group expressed.
