So here is the difference between TaeDo and JohnTae dynamics. Neos are on standbuy, it's chilly, they are bored, Tae wants to pass the time, he does silly stuff and pesters others. Do joins him without a second delay, meanwhile Johnny replies and turns away, wanting to prevent further communication. Look at his slight nodding.

13:28-13:56 (TaeDo) and 13:56-14:06 (JohnTae)

It's not a stand alone episode. I notice this JN's reaction to noisy Tae regularly. He reacts and responds, but half-heartedly.

14:43 - Do herding neos, I think he asked Tae where he was going?

14:56 - JN found Tae's movement funny and copied it, he switched attention on himself. It was for everyone (to notice him) as he didn't look cheekly at Tae (an invitation to play).

15:13 - JohnTae didn't last because paying attention to Doyoung is more important for Tae.

15:36 - Doyoung's thrusting his hips wreaked havoc back when this tiktok was released. Hyuk also was surprised, heh.

15:43 - Jaehyun never knows what to do with his hands. It's always either adjustment of his jacket ot his tie.

15:55 - Do complimenting TaeJae, but later joining Woo adding that he meant to say only Jae was cool. Doyoung very seldom jokes about Jaehyun (at his expense) despite Jae teasing Do non-stop.

19:55 - the hammer wanted to be the neobong

20:18 - A staff manager playing with the choreographer on bg. Haven't learnt his name, but he has been with NCT for a long time. I think they went to his wedding. SM doesn't blur him.

20:24 - Mark not noticing Johnny, the latter giving him side-eye later. That's JN's problem in 127, he doesn't have anyone who thinks of him as his number 1 friend.

21:50 - 2Dong. Payback. 22:20 - Annoying each other is their dynamic, so Hyuk goes to show Do pictures at the end anyway.

22:34 - Jaehyun gets applause from onlookers, but doesn't turn his head to respond. He joked for himself and was more interested in Do's expression.

23:32 - Jungwoo is no fun, he couldn't replace WinWin.

Have you read Psychological Warfare by yuwoo on AO3? If not, I'm recommending you do. The writer has a great take on the social class restrictions of 1940s Hogwarts and how they might have affected a young Tom Riddle.

The video

On the topic of Jaehyun showing a sour face and indicating that the time’s up. 

Jaehyun was laughing his ass off during JN vs Mark and JN vs Taeil. Jae also laughed in the beginning, when Do’s ears actively moved, amused at the sight. Jae calmed down when he noticed Do starting to get vexed with the situation. 

There were a few cuts of JN vs Do game, so Jae’s change of mood isn’t very gradual. However, 6:11, 6:16 - Jae is still laughing. His stopped after Do closed his eyes to calm down and complained about ears moving all the time.

I agree that Jae didn’t like Johnny using “tokki” to mock Do (”tokki” (= “bunny”) is Jae’s nickname for Do, he doesn’t like when others use it), but overall I think he sensed Do being irritated, so couldn’t laugh at his bae anymore. Do hates to lose, especially when he doesn’t have control over the game, and especially when he is being made fun of for it. 

Tae either didn’t see Do’s face well from his angle, or he isn’t good with catching on nuances, he continued to snicker, while Haechan stopped laughing when Jaehyun did.

Yuta vs Woo made everyone laugh, but Do took time to calm down from his loss, so he wasn’t as loud as he usually is when it’s about his bias Woo and his antics. 

Also, compare the easiness between YuWoo with uneasiness between JohnDo.
