Since NCIT HOUSE was released, in which NCT‘s Johnny and Jaehyun were suspicious that Mark was Spider-Man, it’s been a common joke in the fandom that Mark might actually be Spider-Man.
Some NCTzens have even compared Mark to current Spider-Man actor Tom Holland. They think Mark’s voice is actually very similar to Spider-Man secret identity Peter Parker’s.

Now, Mark has guested on the latest episode of DIVE Studios‘ podcast Daebak Show w/ Eric Nam. Host Eric Nam mentioned Mark’s many nicknames, and Mark chose his favorite to be “Spider-Man.”
Today, I’m going just say Spider-Man.
— Mark
Eric Nam remembered Mark wearing the Spider-Man costume, so he assumed the nickname was due to that. So, Mark explained how fans also have pointed out similarities between him and Spider-Man.

Eric Nam: Oh, is that when you wore a Spider-Man costume?
Mark: Not only that…
Eric Nam: I remember seeing that.
Mark: They kind of correlate me with the actual Spider-Man from the movies, and they say that I have like… I share some similarities. I don’t know. Actually, I do know. I can see why they think that, though. And I’m a fan of the Spider-Man series too.
Eric Nam: Is Spider-Man your favorite superhero?
Mark: Out of the Avengers, yes, I’m going to go with Spider-Man.
So, Eric asked Mark what he would say if Marvel Studios ever called him, looking for a new actor to play Spider-Man. Mark said that if they ever wanted an Asian actor to play the character, it has to be him.
I have said this to my fans once… If they ever need an Asian-looking Spider-Man, it has to be me.
— Mark

Mark then revealed an origin story of how he became known as Spider-Man. It was his fellow NCT member Chenle who first pointed out that Mark has the physical skills of Spider-Man. NCTzens have also noticed that Mark has amazing reflexes.
You know, I was in the park once playing basketball with Chenle, and there were kids and one of their shoes… or was it a ball? It got stuck up on a roof, and I climbed up and got it for him. I didn’t think of it, but Chenle was the one who said, ‘Yo, you kind of look like Spider-Man there for a moment.’
