A South Korean opera lover spared British singer Bryn Terfel his blushes by lending him a pair of trousers after he absent-mindedly arrived for a concert in shorts.
The burly, 6ft 4ins tall Terfel had put on shorts at his hotel in Seoul because the weather was warm, but he forgot he was still wearing them when he headed for the performance, it was reported.
“One can be a bit forgetful on the day of a concert - and I forgot my trousers at the hotel,” Terfel said. “But what could I do? Tell the audience ‘I’m sorry, but I have to wear my shorts?’”
“There was one person there who happened to be the same height as me. And if there was ever a pair of trousers that fits like a glove - that’s the one.”
Terfel returned them to their owner afterwards.
