First Kisses | WayV

WayV - All Members

Rating: E for Everyone

Word Count: About 300 for each, so about 1.8k total

Pairing: WayV x GN!Reader (Separate)

Genre: Reader-Insert, Drabble, Fluff

Summary: Your first kiss with each member of WayV!

Author's Note: I have never wrote drabble-length things before, so I am proud of myself I kept these so short.

I tried to keep these gender-neutral, so let me know if I didn't, but it might still be slightly implied in these the reader is AFAB, I don't think so though…

PS. Kun is not only my WayV bias, but my NCT bias, and even past that, he is my ultimate bias.

PSS. I used Google Translate for Yangyang's part, so if its wrong, sorry~

-> NCT 127 <-

-> NCT Dream <-

I am cross-posting this on Archive. Please reblog! If you know anyone that would like this or future fics but they aren't on here my name and icon are exactly the same on the other site. Happy reading!

Kun

"Can you stop eating my ingredients, you're almost as bad as Chenle." Kun sighed, lightly smacking your hand as it went to the bowl of carrots he had cut up. You pouted with a huff but pulled your hand back. You loved watching him cook… Honestly, you loved watching him do everything and anything. Your eyes travelled over him once again, lingering on his handsome face. "Take a picture, it'll last longer." He teased, that trademark smirk of his spreading across his face. Kun fully smiled when you scoffed, trying to play it off, looking away. "I don't need to take a picture; I can see you whenever I want." You rested your chin on your palm, trying to sound dismissive. Your best friend hummed, dropping the issue, continuing to cook as you continued to watch him. Your night continued as normal leading up to you sitting on the counter next to him as he did the dishes. "Are you sure you don't want help?" "Nope, stay there." He didn't even look your way. From your elevated position, you were eye-level with him, and close. The proximity never used to mean anything, but now you had the biggest crush on him, unlike any before. You had been lost in thought, staring at his hands, only snapping out of it when he moved to stand in front of you. Kun stood between your legs, bringing him even closer; your face grew warm. "You can see me best like this, but you're only looking at my lips." He had that stupid smirk again, so you leaned in to cover it with your own lips. Kun sighed, deepening your somewhat bashful kiss, hands resting on the counter at your sides. "You can do that anytime you want too."

Ten

"If you don't want to go so bad, why are you?" Ten glanced up from his phone to look at your reflection in the mirror. You were finishing up your hair and touching up your appearance. He was glad at least he was going to the work even with you, which should prevent any of your coworkers from asking you out. You weren't officially together, but that didn't mean he would let anyone approach you. "My boss heavily implied its mandatory." You sighed, messing with the various implements on your vanity to get the next one. You looked at him sitting behind you on your bed through the mirror. He looked stunning as usual, and you felt bad that, technically, your third date was going to be some company dinner party. After you were ready, you both headed off, and were immediately ambushed upon arrival. Your mostly female coworkers were all over Ten, no surprise. Eventually you stepped out onto one of the ballroom's balconies for some fresh air. "You okay?" Ten joined you, leaning on the railing next to you. You hummed, rubbing your temple and he huffed a laugh. Putting his hand on your shoulder, he turned you toward him, hand sliding down your arm to hold your own. You avoided his gaze, looking at your hands. His other one went to your chin to lift your head. He kissed you, not caring that anyone looking out could see. You whined when he pulled away, wanting it to continue despite the public setting. Ten winked, chuckling, "more later."

Winwin

It's not easy being desperately in love with your best friend of nearly twenty years. It's also not easy to not see your precious Sicheng as the cutest thing ever. You were in an odd predicament, not sure how to act with or toward him. You decided to go with the status quo, but apparently that was the wrong choice. "Why can't you treat me like a man?" He shouted as you got into the apartment, it took you aback. He never yelled. You could tell earlier he was upset, but you were not sure why. Was it that you wiped sauce off his face? You did that a lot though… "I-I didn't mean to treat you like a child-" "What?" "With the…" You motioned around your face. "Not that! The…" He licked his lips then pressed them together, the act drawing your gaze. "The, 'that's just Sicheng,' comment. Like I'm just another one of your siblings, or something." He sighed at your confused expression. "I want you to treat me like a man, like as a boyfriend. Not like a man as in an adult." He finally got out, not used to having to spell things out for you. "Like a boyfriend?" You repeated back, more to yourself, trying to process the information. Sicheng huffed in exasperation, stomping forward. His hands cupped your jaw, pulling you closer. Instead of the soft, gentle first kiss you had fantasized, it was intense. His little nibble on your bottom lip granted him further access, his tongue tasting yours. When you both pulled back for air, your face flushed a deep red. "Oh…"

Xiaojun

"Bella, wait!" You heard them before you could see them. You were taking your shoes off in the entry way and you heard claws scrambling on the floor, then the beagle dashed down the hall to you. "Hi, girl!" You beamed, kneeling to pet the excited pup. You heard Dejun's feet following and he stopped at the end of the hall, slightly out of breath. "Sorry, (Y/N)." He joined his pup, motioning for you to hand him the convenience store bag and you did so. Trying not to trip on the dog, you followed him into the apartment, joining him at the table to eat your snacks. "She loves you; you know." He nodded at the dog who was happily gnawing on the treat you got her. "I love her too. She's such a sweet dog…when she listens." You giggled and he rolled his eyes, groaning in agreement. Later you were sitting on the floor with her while he played some game on his Xbox. His eyes flitted down to watch his dog kiss you, licking all over your face and you sputtered where her tongue ran over your lips. He was feeling ridiculous, getting jealous over his dog licking you. "Bella, down!" He scolded and the dog sat down, both of you surprised by his sudden scolding. Getting off the floor, you sat next to him on the sofa, and he exhaled hard through his nose. "You okay?" "Why do you just let her kiss you like that?" He grumbled and you rose a brow in question. He huffed, pausing his game, and leaning over, pressing a quick kiss to your mouth. He smirked at your gaping face, continuing his game like nothing had just happened.

Hendery

Watching him dance really made you wonder what he was made of. It was like his joints were jelly, or he had no bones. How did he move like that? "Guanheng, what are you made of?" You asked from the couch. You two were the only ones in the dance studio. He stopped his wiggling in the mirror, and he laughed, coming to sit with you. "What do you mean?" "How are you so…loose." You flopped your wrist, letting your hand be limp. "Oh! Uh…" He chuckled, looking deep in thought. "I just always have been." He shrugged and you hummed, looking him over. He was so weird that you sometimes forgot how handsome he was. But just sitting there with you, he really was so gorgeous. "What? Is there something on my face." His fingers came to his cheek, rubbing at the skin and you shook your head. "No. You're just…" You blushed a bit, shy to finish your sentence, "really handsome." You couldn’t meet his gaze, but you felt him shift closer to you. His fingers gently rested on your chin, making you turn to look at him again. A small smile rested on his face, not a goofy or playful one. "You're gorgeous, too." He smirked, pulling you a bit closer so he could seal the compliment with a short kiss. Your eyes were still wide when he pulled back and he huffed in amusement at your reaction. "One day I'll show you how loose I can be~"

Yangyang

You wanted to give up. German just wasn't a language you could learn. There were too many similarities to English, just enough that it confused you. Yangyang sighed, trying again to get you to repeat after him. It wasn't like he was trying to get you fluent, not even conversational; he was just teaching you basic phrases. "If you ever go to Germany with me, you'll have to stay with me to communicate!" He insisted and you huffed. "Why can't I use English there, huh? It’s the international language!" "Yes, but people will like you more if you speak like them. Come on, at least try and learn how to order food." He tapped on the paper he had printed out again and you leaned forward to look closer at the black print. Sneering he rolled his eyes. "You're lucky you're so cute." He grumbled, taking the paper, and flipping it over so could try the words on the other side. Your reaction to his comment was delayed, and you finally snapped your head to look at him. "I'm what?" "Cute. Now try this one, it’s easy." Yangyang tried to brush off what he said, but you couldn't. "I'm cute?" "Yes." "Look in a mirror, Yang." You huffed, embarrassed, but looked over the prompts on the page. "I'm cute?" He grinned playfully and sent him an exaggerated glare. "Adorable." Your tone was aggressive, making the response hilarious, so he burst out laughing. You had a hard time not giggling along with him. "Kann ich dich küssen?" He spoke but you had no idea what he said. "Yes?" You replied, not knowing what you just responded to. Yangyang then hauled you closer, kissing you for one, two, three seconds, then pulled away. You blinked. "Niedlich~"

My Favorite English Line for each NCT Member

Okay, this is something that has been on my mind for a while, but I think I've finally sorted things out enough to finish the complete list, so now I'm sharing it with the world (cause ya know, to the world, nct)

Before we get started: this is my opinion, and not what I'm claiming to be their most iconic or best line (because then we all know what Jaehyun's would be and it has to do with queso), but these are just my favorite lines to listen to because they make me transcend or something.

Also, I did not include solo stuff when compiling this because otherwise, some line from Horizon would beat out every other Jaehyun line and that's too much personal bias to feel like including - I just really love Horizon.

Now, it's time to share my most ambitious project yet:

Taeil: "oh, your birthday" (make your day)

talk about transcending. him singing this is so pleasing I can't it's so soft and perfect I love Taeil.

Johnny: "ice on with no lights on, but you're still shining yeah" (faded in my last song)

you guys, you guys. the way he sings this is crazy. I love Johnny Suh

Taeyong: "multicolored diamonds like the rainbow yeah, yeah, yeah" (regular)

it's just so addicting I don't think you guys understand. especially with his little choreography, it's perfect

Yuta: "baby we go wild. 127 squad" (kick it)

nothing gets me pumped up like how this Yuta line gets me pumped up. it's so good. he's so good!!

Kun: "it was all out of my control but I really want you to know the truth" (on my youth english version)

the way this is sung, I could listen to it on repeat forever. fantastic job, Kun. wish I could give him a pat on the head for this.

Doyoung: "so stay" (promise you)

Doyoung biases don't come at me for my favorite line of his only being two words. Doyoung is my son, I love him with everything in me, and this is so soft and perfect of him that there's no way it couldn't be my favorite. he's the reason this song is so amazing.

Ten: "oh baby, give it to me" (baby don't stop)

yeah this absolutely raises me from the grave it's so aurally pleasing I can't even begin to describe it.

Jaehyun: "it's a cruel game, I cannot lose" (sit down!)

everyone go listen to this song right now I'm not even kidding. this Jaehyun line is so addicting and perfect and hot wow.

WinWin: "we should be together, you should know" (king of hearts)

I have ALWAYS loved this part, so finding my favorite english line for him was pretty easy because wow. what a pre-chorus this man gives us. thank you, WinWin.

Jungwoo: "hey, I see you" (ay-yo)

back to absolutely transcending this line is crazy. very good, Jungwoo. wow.

Mark: "skrrt pull up in the coupe beep beep. girl, I got your lovin' on repeat" (highway to heaven english version)

I actually cannot explain how much I love this line. my mom even listens to this song with me specifically because she also knows how FANTASTIC and addicting this part is.

Xiaojun: "can I be honest? I so hate to be controlled" (take off)

wow. everything about Xiaojun is just wow, including this line.

Hendery: "falling for a stranger, good gracious" (love talk english version)

you guys. you guys. it's the "good gracious." why is it so addicting and perfect? I love Hendery so much I cannot even begin to explain, but this line is surely one of the reasons why because wow. I am asexual, but when Hendery sings this...

Renjun: "I go round and around like a merry-go" (SOS)

again, if I was going for iconic, I would've put his bridge in ISTJ, but this line of his is so perfect and aurally pleasing that I physically couldn't not put it in this list. this one line is the reason I love SOS as much as I do.

Jeno: "you owe me sleep" (broken melodies)

CRIESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. that is all I have to say about that.

Haechan: "you see my hope was all but gone" (superhuman)

okay this one is a very iconic line but can I be blamed for it also being on my favorites list? no. because this line is the definition of transcendental. everything about it, including Haechan, is perfect.

Jaemin: "let it in my system" (poison)

this Jaemin line is crazy I really don't know what else to tell you.

YangYang: "she's a keeper, but I just can't keep her" (low low)

you guys. you know it's good when I pull out the "you guys" as my only coherent thought at first. YangYang eats here.

Chenle: "guess I finally get back to you" (broken melodies)

is my favorite line for my bias and bias wrecker in NCT Dream both from my favorite NCT Dream song? yes, but the fact that I am in love with how Chenle sings this line has nothing to do with the fact that it feeds into my delusions. I promise.

Jisung: "hate this distance cause I'm just left here singing" (broken melodies)

okay, Jisung isn't my bias nor bias wrecker but my favorite line of his still comes from Broken Melodies because NO ONE sings this part like he does and I have to make sure you all are aware of that. this line was made for Jisung.

Okay that- that's all twenty members. I have no clue what to do with myself now.

So you wanna get into NCT, eh?

Part 3 - NCT 127 - More MVs and Social Media Links

Oh hey I'm finally back. It's been more than a day but life happens and it's only been like two days... or so? (it's been three) but let's get back into this!

So last time we covered a little bit about the members of the group and then I linked some MVs. I realised something I could have done there was link some social media accounts so let's do that!

There are general accounts for NCT on most of the big social media services such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. There are also accounts for all of the subgroups, so NCT 127 does have their own accounts on all of those as well. I feel like the Youtube content deserves its own post so I'll get to that but 127 does have a Youtube channel as well.

The individual members share things like the Twitter and Instagram accounts on and off, taking turns sometimes to post on there, tho most posts are from the company. Facebook gets posts from the company and not from individuals very often. The boys do all have their own Instagram accounts tho, and they also all use Bubble to varying degrees, which is an app which a lot of kpop groups use where fans can pay to access special posts from idols that include text posts, pictures, voice recordings, etc. I have never been a Bubble user, but I follow everyone on Instagram so here's all of those:

You can use those to become more familiar with the members and see some of the nonsense they get up to. Some of them post often and some post almost never so your mileage may vary with them as a tool, but I'm a sucker for personal social media accounts so I'm clearly following those all.

It's also worth throwing out there since I skipped talking about positions last time that Taeyong is the leader of both NCT 127 and also of NCT in general. He's also a main rapper, main dancer, visual, center, helps write and produce music and has since The 7th Sense was released, etc etc, you name it, he's probably done the thing. He's ridiculously talented, basically. (They all are.) I could list everyone's positions but there's tons of wiki pages and etc with those kinds of lists and I find them to be less helpful when you have a group like NCT where everyone kinda does everything a lot of the time and has multiple talents and jobs since the rappers might be singing or the vocalists might be rapping depending on the song and literally everyone is a visual etc. But that's part of why you might be noticing that Taeyong is front and center like... a lot. Very often. He's recognisable and has a distinctive voice and being the leader is a good extra excuse to focus on him.

Anyway, let's get back to the music! I somehow managed to come up with ten more videos to link to hit the max per post so you're getting another full variety tasting of 127's style and range with a special treat at the end.

youtube

Favorite (Oct 25, 2021) was the lead single from the repackage of Sticker and was not quite as divisive as Sticker but still a bit weird. Released right before Halloween, there's a whole vampire concept going on (GREAT) and the MV and live stage performances all have a weird electronic dance break 2 1/2 minutes in (BAD) that I am PLEASED TO TELL YOU is not part of the song on the actual album. The first time I watched the MV it threw me for such a hard loop that I almost hated disliked the song but when I listened to the album later on spotify I was like "wait it's gone!!!! it was all just a bad dream!!!" and I try to forget it until I do something like watch the MV to make a post like this.

youtube

We're gonna mix in some of 127's Japanese releases today starting with their first one, Chain (May 8, 2018) off their first Japanese mini album. Despite NCT's initial plan to have groups based in different countries and markets, they are still now in early 2024 only ABOUT to have their first Japan-centric subunit debut, which means that they've just been having 127 (and Dream) release some stuff in Japanese in the meantime. It helps that they have a Japanese member. Anyway Chain is just a great song so here it is.

youtube

gimme gimme (Feb 15, 2021) suffers a little from the eternal problem of kpop songs even in primarily Japanese having some.... wild? English lyrics (spicy disease? dead clowns? who wrote these lyrics? why did their native English speakers go along with this?) but despite the nonsense it's a catchy, mesmerizing earworm of a song with a tight MV with a lot of neat cuts and transitions and I have watched it VERY MANY times. I love it. Spicy disease and all.

youtube

In the first main NCT intro post I included WayV's version of Regular (October 8, 2018) and linked both this and the Korean version. I was going to include the Korean version and just link the English here since the Korean one is the one that I personally listen to the most, but then I noticed that the English version has like 66 million more views so I decided to reverse that and you get the English one. Anyway. All versions of Regular are great and the English version has some great weird lyrics too ("I be walking with the cheese that's the queso" is like... ultimate. Incredible. A+. How did Jaehyun record that without laughing? Legendary.). It's also, with Simon Says, one of the only MVs that has all ten members of NCT 127. It also has a CGI tiger, shiny cars, rockets going off, Winwin jumping off a building, there's just a lot going on.

youtube

Sliding back to Japan for a minute, I feel like I should include Wakey Wakey (March 18, 2019). I almost forget this song exists sometimes and I think it's because I just want to block out having seen the absolutely terrible wig they put on Johnny for this MV. Seriously why? The song itself is solidly in the weird but also very catchy lane that 127 does so well but I just keep thinking about the wig. Johnny had some long extensions for NCT 2020 that looked great on him, but this wig was just not it. My eyes are drawn to it every time he's on screen. I need to put this into my regular listening-only playlists and let my brain block that wig out the way I forget the dance break in Favorite exists.

youtube

127 started 2023 off with Ay-Yo (Jan 30, 2023) which was the (somewhat delayed) repackage of 2 Baddies, which we'll get to in a moment. I wasn't sure what to think of Ay-Yo at first but it has definitely grown on me despite having veered back into some questionable hair territory mainly for Taeyong (and I say that as a grown up late 90s punk kid who thought giant hair spikes were cool). The MV has some absolutely wild visuals mixed in, and the song is definitely outside of the realm of standard kpop releases even if it's not as weird as some others like Sticker. It's solid.

youtube

Okay so. Like. I honestly didn't really pay enough attention to the general reactions to 2 Baddies (Sep 15, 2022) to tell you how divisive this song was to most people, but it split one of my group chats VERY strongly and one of my friends has refused to listen to any 127 releases since then because she hates this song so much. I tried to get her with Fact Check at the very least and she's so anti this song that she still refused and I may have lost her on 127 altogether 🤣 It's mainly the chorus that she dislikes, and I'm a little back and forth on it myself sometimes honestly but also I have absolutely BLASTED this song while driving down the highway so it feels kinda like a guilty pleasure song sometimes. If you ignore the chorus the other parts of the song are so goooooooood and no one can deny that the last part of the bridge slaps. Plus there's a whole lot of shirtless Johnny and Yuta which you can never go wrong with.

youtube

Touch (Mar 13, 2018) is a little off from the style of kpop that I listen to regularly since it's a bit more in the bubbly poppy side of things that I don't always go for but the vibes are immaculate and everyone looks so happy in the MV and there's fuzzy sweaters and everyone smiles so much? It's hard to not love it. It's fluff and cheery and delightful.

youtube

I don't know if SM actually started the "track video" trend (short MVs that have an edited, cut down version of a song so they cost less to produce than a full MV- Lemonade is 3:10 on the Sticker/Favorite album, but this track video is 2:01 for instance) but they love doing them with NCT, and despite Lemonade (Sep 9, 2021) definitely deserving a full MV, since it wasn't the lead single it didn't get one but it did at least get a track video and was performed a lot on the music shows when they were promoting Sticker. It's catchy and has some clever work in the full version lyrics that involve titles of other NCT 127 songs and I've listened to it as much as or possibly more than Sticker.

youtube

I've covered all of the lead singles and there ARE some other track videos or special release songs like the recent Be There For Me that I could be using the last slot for but you know what? We're gonna go fully off the expected path and include Let's Shut Up & Dance (Feb 21, 2019) instead because it's wild and fun. 127 doesn't do much besides sing part of the chorus and do a bunch of dancing in this (on the ceiling? on the walls? in an alley?) but like. Lay is here too and the song is SO fun and an absolute bop so that's what we're closing this post out with.

So that wraps the NCT 127 music videos! I'm thinking the next post and the last of the 127 centric ones will be a guide to some of their Youtube content, since there's a whole lot, and that'll kinda set up expectations for the posts about Dream and WayV as well when we get to them. I think after I get through the main posts of MVs and content for all of the sub-units that I might do some special posts of performance videos for songs that don't have MVs just to get some of those out there, or I might just post a bunch of links to them. We'll see how I'm feeling and if my audience of like two or three people has any kind of preference (that's you, hey, yeah you, lemme know what you want from me).

This post is the third in a series of posts introducing new fans to NCT in a way that makes sense, by getting familiar with one subgroup at a time before moving on to the next. Linked down at the bottom is the intro post, and the rest will be linked as they're added.

Dedicated as ever to @catatonicrainbow and @poetry-protest-pornography 💖

hi hi hi today's reminder is correct me if I'm wrong but taeil hasn't been on hiatus super long. it's been, what, a couple of months at most? it was a little bit before the concert if i remember correctly. so you're telling me that 127 (well…certain members, but my point stands) have been unemployed for Months, to the point where fans were begging sm to show us taeil, and they decided to shoot the promo material for the new 127 album while they were preparing for/actually performing a whole other concert instead of while they were free??? and made the staff pick/edit/draft the content on what I'm sure was an insane deadline?? like that's nine whole, very distinct, films, that would've taken ages. i don't pretend to be an expert on k pop idol scheduling but surely there's better ways to go about it

anyway. i love that they still included taeil while letting him heal up. the vibe of these have been all over the place tho because why is jaehyun negotiating a deal with a sophisticated mob boss while taeil is straight up being given drugs at a night club? why is jungwoo just playing games while doyoung is contemplating what went wrong in his marriage in front of a pet shop aquarium?

Hiii, yeah it seems like golden age teasers were done over at least the past year as they all traveled during tours and even sent someone to film Winwin during his personal schedules. So to cram 127s in the span of like two or three months was definitely a decision since they all vary quite greatly but perhaps because they're all just in Korea and seemingly the same area that could of helped but how they did it is a mystery to me as well. It was a nice way to include taeil while he's resting. And I so far deciphered two distinct vibes there's the somber, dark film vibe with Johnny, Yuta, Doyoung and Jaehyun then the more light hearted party vibe with Mark, Jungwoo and Taeyong. Haechan fits in with the light hearted part. And Taeil's a mix of the both but because it's an animation I can't quite feel the vibe as well. But it does fit 127s overall energy. And my best guess the theme is overall quite dark and grungy which like watch it be the exact opposite but somehow be about getting a blowjob behind a 7\11. Which Jungwoo, you know where to find me.

Also unrelated but skz VMAs talk once more but I was weary of the reactions to skz watching Megan and Cardi perform. Why? cause I know how kpop fans are. And I didn't care about their reactions but I was prepared to be angry at things that fans said and look at that I was right. And I just wanna say

one, they're grown ass men I highly doubt they haven't seen a Cardi b or Megan music video. We've seen NCT sing Megan, Cardi and Nicki songs. Kpop idols haven't been sheltered from the obscenity of female rappers chill.

Two Changbin and Hyunjin weren't looking away from Megan twerking they were watching Cardi walk over to the other stage. Just like they were watching Megan perform on that same stage for her verse.

Three they weren't fucking traumatized, they're not innocent babies being corrupted by the female body. Someone said the dancers were so sexualized they couldn't watch it. Use sexualized wrong again, I want a kpop fan to use sexualize the wrong way again.

The dancers, Cardi & Megan choose to dress and dance that way it's a choice. Was it my choice for my class to look up my skirt and the teacher not stop it or say a word or for boys to try to throw things in my cleavage when i was 14 was that my choice? No. There's a fucking difference. Not everything sexual is sexualized. Sometimes it's just sexy and that's okay. Women are allowed to express their sexuality. I'm sorry that just triggers something in me.

Anyway all of the negative things I see are definitely slightly if not blatantly anti black, sexist,infantalizing, and I've even seen fatphobia which....why the fuck? God forbid women have fat on their body. This may seem over dramatic but I will never forgive kpop fans for what they did to cupcakke so I am hyper vigilant and the hate kpop fans have toward black women is just so disgusting. But yeah how dare women dress and perform as they wish in an area where your precious innocent 21 to 25 year old men are and clearly there's no way they can enjoy such sexual performances. I wanted to call those fans very mean things but I will say. All fans over the age of 20 and with common sense are cool and I love you and are a good 68% of the fans the rest of y'all, just grow up.

hi!! could you do an nct 127 love life update

Taeil || the wheel of fortune rx, ten of swords: He's been having some really bad luck when it comes to relationships and/or the people he meets. He goes into these connections with high hopes, but then, somehow, he finds out that the other person isn't who he thought they were OR that they aren't a good match at all. He is single, yes, but definitely still looking for love.

Johnny || the sun, five of wands, queen of wands: If Johnny isn't pursuing or going out with a leo person, I'd be shocked (or at least someone with strong leo placements). They have been flirting and hanging out quite a bit, but that's pretty much it. He's very into them, anyway - also, the fact that these 3 cards jumped out right away, with such light and bright energy, just confirms to me that Johnny is having an absolute blast getting to know this person!

Taeyong || seven of cups, page of wands: Taeyong is single as well. He has plenty of suitors, though and might be feeling particularly interested in a specific person these days. Their relationship has no romantic undertones to it yet, however - they are totally just friends.

Yuta || two of cups, ten of wands: Yuta is currently dating. This relationship might feel like a burden at time, but it's something that he thinks is worth the struggle - distance or schedules may play a big part in this, as his partner seems to be quite the busy person as well.

Doyoung || the moon, the magician: He's in some sort of situationship with someone who works with/around him. This person has been avoiding taking the next step because they feel like it could hurt both their friendship & their careers, and that just wouldn't be worth it. They may be kinda new in their position - 6 months? -, and even though it's normal for this kind of thing to develop between people, they are afraid that it might not turn out so great for them.

Jaehyun || five of swords rx, king of pentacles: Single, most likely. He recently walked away from a romantic interest that either he realized wasn't his type after all, or things simply didn't work out between them - I actually see some disagreements here, either way. For now, he's focused on his work but is still open to meeting someone new.

Winwin || two of cups, the wheel of fortune: Winwin seems to be in a good relationship right now. Him and his partner like each other immensely, and their personalities are an amazing match (in balance & mirroring, both). This is going to last for the foreseeable future.

Jungwoo || the hermit, the wheel of fortune: So… Jungwoo's energy was very irritable. I think he's been using casual romantic encounters as a way of relieving stress, yet he's getting frustrated that he's not able to settle for or with anybody. He's literally being forced to do inner-work and focus on his own path (which, as many of us should know, sucks but is needed at some point).

Mark || here > X & Haechan || here > X

NCT U LINEUPS & SUB-UNITS I WANT

hi everyone! I’m bored at work and I know this is a khh/krnb blog but besides listening to that genre, I’m also an nctzen since 2016 so let me just do a random post of nct u lineups and sub-units I really want to see but most likely will never get.

one. before we ever got nct dojaejung, I wanted an nct 95 line sub-unit. just think about it, an album with just johnny, taeyong, and yuta would make my life complete. I know we got “hello” during their recent tour with mark but that’s not enough for me, I need an album with that trio. however, with taeyong’s enlistment coming up, the closest we’ll ever get to this is “hello” or a 127 b-side with just those three.

two. a 2000s line track. I wanted this back in 2020 and I still want it now. the power renjun, jeno, haechan, jaemin, and yangyang have is a force to be reckoned with. renjun’s and haechan’s vocals pair perfectly together and i would love to see the other three spitting some random but catchy bars. it would be absolutely better if shotaro was still in nct but I’m rooting for him in riize. I also want to see this as a 2000 child myself. the closest we’ve ever got to this was universe (let’s play ball) but hopefully we’ll get this lineup in their next collaborative album.

three. the youngest member lineup. I’m interested to see what would happen if you get all the youngest members from each unit: jungwoo, haechan, yangyang, jisung, and sakuya, and release a track. this track would have to be rap heavy for it to work which is usually the case for many of their songs.

four. the new axis lineup 2.0. get taeyong, mark, and yangyang together for another track but with riku. ever since the announcement of nct new team tentative name, I really wanted to see riku perform with the other rappers of nct - specifically those three. I would also like the misfit unit to come back with riku as well.

five. nct j. there I said it. I would love to see johnny, jaehyun, jungwoo, jeno, jaemin, and jisung in a song together. I know we’ve joked about this lineup but if you think about it, this lineup is pretty good. and no, I will not be adding mark jark in this lineup.

six. a performance unit consisting of taeyong, yuta, ten, winwin, mark, jisung, yushi, and ryo. not too sure why I want this unit but I would love to see yushi and ryo performing with them.

seven. bassbot lineup. this one requires no explanation, just get johnny, taeyong, yuta, ten, and jaehyun together on stage again. am I still mad after all these years that bassbot turned into “run back 2 u”? maybe.

eight. a pop ballad with taeil, kun, xiaojun, renjun, chenle, sion and daeyoung. this would be a good way for last two to showcase their vocals and see how they’ve improved from the lastart. I would add doyoung if they needed another neo but this looks good for now.

nine. the air signs of nct. literally get all the geminis, libras and aquariuses aka taeil, johnny, doyoung, jaehyun, hendery, haechan, yangyang, and jisung in a unit. I feel like this is already an existing lineup but I don’t think doyoung and hendery have been in the same song besides the obvious ones like “beautiful” and “golden age”.

ten. yuta and xiaojun. ever since their episode on awsaz, I want to see a duet from them. whether its a ballad or a hoe anthem, I just want to see those two perform together. I don’t think they would have a track with just the two on their future album but hopefully an sm station single one day.

if you made it this far to the list, I wanna say thank you for reading whatever this post was. it was literally just random thoughts in my head while I’m trying to get through the day and I might make a part 2 if I randomly think of more nct u lineups sm can use lmao sm you should hire me

em beloved here is the nct crash course:

nct 127 (l to r): johnny. haechan. mark. jaehyun. taeyong (leader). yuta. taeil. jungwoo. doyoung.

fixed unit, known for there noise music (if you need recs do lmk). also 127 is like the longitude of seoul? or something idk. also winwin was once part of them but now he’s not and we’re all sad. active since 2016. known as the frat boys. chaotic. very endearing. i love them all dearly.

nct dream (l to r): mark (leader). haechan. (yes. again.) jaemin. jisung. jeno. chenle. renjun.

started out as a rotational group for younger (ish?) members but then mark left (or as we say. graduated) because he got too old (i think he was nineteen? the horror) and every nctzen cried and now he’s back but we’re still crying because he (and haechan) are in two fixed units so when do they breathe? never perhaps. idk what dream stands for. they’re young so they still have hopes and dreams? active since 2016. music very young and up beat.

wayv (l to r): xiaojun. winwin. ten. lucas. yangyang. kun (leader). hendery.

china based unit. also a fixed one. active since 2019. is lucas still a member? honest to god don’t know that’s a whole other story. ngl i have never known what wayv stands for and tbh idc. good music. i feel like they’re a special kind of insane. have very cute cats !

then some members are also part of the phenomenon we call superm. (jumping and popping we jopping etc.) and oh nct u! that’s the rotational. random. group. u as in U are picked this time? idk. it’s just random members each time coming together to make songs outside of their fixed group. was actually the first unit to debut with a song called 7th sense. (very nice. do check it out) also baby don’t stop is an icon.

oh and you’re totally right mark lee is the justin bieber fan!

anyways. that’s it! if i sound insane it’s because it’s 5:30 am and i apologize. also yes google will give you a better explanation but i had to send this because i cried laughing at your post. if you ever need more info or want some song recs lmk <3 bye !!!!!! sending hugs (((hugs tightly))) - @minchanz

ps. my phone is messing up the pics so i hope this works !!

omg nini hi!!! thank you for taking the time to type out this whole thing ksjdhfkjds i just read through it all and my biggest conclusion is: do any of them ever sleep skjdfjshf how are they all part of 983742 different sub groups LMAO. also when you were trying to explain nct u the sentence "u as in U are picked this time?" actually took me OUT 😭😭😭😭

i think i know whopping total of 3 nct songs between all these groups (including 7th sense!! i do actually know that one lmao) so maybe ill actually take a look at more of their music! the funniest part is that i know of the 2 baddies song (thats a new one i think??) but i actually have no idea what its supposed to sound like and only know the tune because hyunjin sang it in that one skz code episode (whoops)

fr this message made me giggle ty for sending it again! i hope you get some sleep soon <333

#nini ily !!!!!!#minchanz #replies #i love that i was right abt mark loving jb i dont know why that makes me proud but it does #EYE dont even like jb that much so ???? why does this matter 2 me #long post

Since Winwin is promoting in China I think a majority of future comebacks will be ot5.

Personally I'm just grateful their no longer on hiatus and I think that's what a majority of Wayv stans feel. I don't know whether this is going to be a continuous thing but I don't think Winwin is going to perform with them often if he continues to become more popular in China especially after his drama is released. And SM won't mention anything about the Lucus situation.

The interesting thing is going to be if Winwin takes part in their fanmeet tour that's supposed to happen this year. I don't think there is info on whether he's attending or not.

Thank you for your reply.

When WinWin left 127 there was a lot of outcry. To this day many insist on including him in the unit and the content about it. Therefore I'd expect some discontent (you know fans are bitter about the littlest things as it is). Not from his stans, but from WayV fans who had been waiting for a long time. Granted, there is the precedent of Dream unit shifting between OT5 and OT7, however, MarkHyuk have a "bigger" excuse than personal solo career, and try to attend Dream's events as much as possible.

As a group WayV doesn't really need WW. He played his role in attracting attention to the unit during its debut, but musically he plays no role. And he isn't the most popular member either nowadays.

As for WW himself. Acting is what he always wanted. He looks happy to have all these ads and programmes. He does like NCT's music and being in a group of friends though. As you said, the busier he'll get, the less time he'll have for WayV. Unless he'd want to be as committed to the unit as Lay, there isn't that much of a need to stay for him. For now he is bouned by the contract and he is part of the lore. If he leaves, his storyline should be given to someone else.

I'm curious about Lucas. He isn't erased from the content, on the contrary, he even being put in the centre of focus (i.e. when WayV unit is shown, it's a group image or a part of the dance with Lucas in the middle). There were several cases when neos talked about the unit as 7. Even after the scandal Lucas was selected as the most handsome Chinese idol by foreigners. He still has his millions of fans who cleared up the accusations unofficially.

Jaemin and Mark were absent from Dream albums/MVs, so Lucas lack on Phantom doesn't mean the end of him. Yet.

The future will show. Maybe SM decided not to risk it after such a long hiatus and WW's semi-absence.

First of all, we need to know Johnny’s training timeline in SM.

Johnny pass SM Global audition in 2007 and officially join SM in 2008. He was 13 when he starts training in SM, he and his parents decide that he only train during summer break and will continue his education in Chicago. It means he will fly to Seoul during summer break to train and fly back to Chicago when summer break ends to continue his study. After he finish high school, Johnny moved to Seoul to be a full-time trainee in 2013 and introduced as SM Rookies on Christmas Eve that year.

What was the reason why NCT's Johnny chose to train for 8 years and not leave SM?

Easy. Passion and Patience.

When I see Johnny, I know he have passion inside him. Johnny’s eyes change when he is on stage, his focus change when he touches DJ Machine (I don’t know what it called), he is not the chill lay-back Johnny anymore. That is passion.

Passion is a flame, a flame that encourage you to achieve your dreams. Passion make you enjoy your job and do things willingly, not because you must do it. That’s what I see from Johnny. That also what prevent him from walking away after years of training. He loves to perform; it is his passion.

When you pay close attention to Johnny’s training timeline you will realize he train before EXO debut which means he train with EXO and Red Velvet. Both group members confirmed it. He also knows many things about EXO member which I think he lived with them before EXO debut.

“Chen-hyung loves to eat.”

“Xiumin-hyung brush his teeth so hard, I wonder it was okay.”

“Does Kai-hyung still lost things?” He ask when EXO-CBX guess in My SMT in 2016

He trains with EXO member together, eat together, hang out together, and probably live together too. Then it’s time for EXO and Red Velvet to debut. His friends debut one by one, and there he is. Left behind.

Two years after that SM introduced him as SM Rookies and he is part of the famous SR15B along with Taeyong, Jaehyun, Ten, Yuta, and Hansol.

Then reality hit him again. In 2016 NCT debut. Without him. Taeyong, Jaehyun, Ten, Yuta, debut in NCT U and NCT 127. Other trainee(s) such as Taeil, Mark, Doyoung, Winwin, Haechan, Jeno, Jaemin, Renjun, Chenle, and Jisung also debut.

After years of training, he left behind, again.

I should stop now because it hurts to think about. But, that’s how patient Johnny is. He finally debut in NCT 127 with Limitless in 2017 after 8 years of training.

The things is, it’s too late for him to leave SM. He was 21 when NCT debut. I’m sorry but that’s not young. If he left, then what? Move to other company? Where? Monsta X and iKon debut the year before and he is too old for Stray Kids and ATEEZ. I don’t think he had choices.

Another thing is, I understand him. Johnny and I have many similatiries. One of it is that we both an only child. We are our parents only hope. If he decide to walk away from SM I believe his parents will not dissapointed on Johnny, but it’s a big lie if his parents will not be sad about it. They trust SM, they let Johnny, their son spend years of training… for nothing.

Mr. and Mrs. Suh is one of the most supportive parents I have ever see. With all the the love they give to Johnny of course he wants to return the favor. He wanna make his parent proud of him. Their only son.

We also need to know that he sacrifices many things to be who he is now. His road was not easy, never. I believe it filled with struggle, sweat, pain, and tears.

His patience holds him, and his passion keep his dreams alive. At the end, he made it.

Thank you Johnny. If you aren’t that patient I will never know Johnny Suh from Chicago, a man who never give up on his dreams.

I, too, wonder it was okay Xiumin-hyung brush his teeth so hard

also what the fuck

#i admit defeat #i will follow you to the ends of the earth

What's your opinion on the whole NCT new unit drama?

Mmmmmmm I feel like what I'm about to say is going to be a hot take but anyway I genuinely think it's not that big a deal. It's a case of "who actually knows how this stuff works" vs "let me bandwagon on this."

[More under the cut]

Like everyone and anyone getting into NCT knows that their whole concept is to always have new units with an unlimited number of members, so like I'm just here for the ride. Like, I never understood why so many people hated unit stans because NCT is lowkey kind of made to have unit stans. For example, people tend to be suspicious of older fans being into the youthful concept for Dream since 127 has the more mature concept with their audience being young adults (I'm not gatekeeping, be a fan of whichever unit you want, it's just that this is the trend I've observed after being here for a while).

You don't have to be an active fan of every member or unit of NCT, that's exhaustive, there's 20+ of them for goodness' sake, as long as you're not an anti of any of them or just downright cyberbullying then it's fine to not pay attention to all of them. I'm a WayV ult, for example, so I keep up with their stuff a lot, but I can definitely say that I haven't put the effort in to see a single bit of Dream content recently (mostly because I'm a working student now so I don't have time for that stuff) and that's okay, that doesn't make me any less of an NCTzen, and it really shouldn't.

Like, I get the whole mismanagement of the existing members (because it's true, a lot of them are mismanaged but that's bound to happen in large groups), but that's a fault on the management team, each unit has a different management team on it so the actions of one group are independent of the others, so mismanagement is an in-team issue rather than an NCT issue as a whole. There's nothing we as fans can do to stop the debuting of a new unit, if SM wants to dig their grave with the funds and the management then so be it.

Then the issue with Sungchan and Shotaro, everyone wants a fixed unit for them, and as do I, we went through this drama before with Ten and Kun way back when, so I'm holding out faith that the new unit (aside from NCT H) will be that fixed unit for them, unless they start reallocating 127 members, I don't see either of them joining that unit for reasons stated in the above paragraph

I won't comment too much on NCT H because that's been long decided to be a competition show to market to the west, and although I have a personal vendetta against competition shows I won't say much until it starts airing.

NCT Tokyo is a whole other thing though, no doubt Yuta and Shotaro will be added there, in fact, it would be a bad move on SM's part and on Yuta and Shotaro's part to decline. Yuta has barely had many opportunities in 127, his line distribution is horrid in 127 title tracks, and Shotaro is still lacking a fixed unit, it's only beneficial for them to join NCT Tokyo as both members are extremely popular over there (especially with Actor Yuta being a thing now). The only trouble I see in the future for this is that, inevitably, Yuta will be like Winwin and become an inactive 127 member and I know a lot of people are going to throw a fit over that.

But, yeah, that's basically the gist of it.

i checked him all night and i'm so sleepy while writing this but i want to express my feelings because a cute moment just turned into a sad moment. i watched his all eras, then wondered why he changed his group then searched about him, his story made me so fucking cry, they really harras him for 3 years to bring him to the company and debuted him 5 months later for not losing him to another company but when the company guaranteed him, they just start to treat him like shit. i watched nct life osaka with x2 speed and then watched his wayv contents, it surprised me that his smile and sparkling eyes never changed. i would never be the same after being treated shit like this. he stayed like same proving how good a person he is. because i would just turn a villain. thank you for introducing me to a talented, handsome man. he deserves all the love in the world. i'm a very emotional person and his story really one of the rare story made me cry.

WINWIN HAS HAD A COMPLICATED JOURNEY SINCE HE JOINED THE IDOL LIFE but you're absolutely right -- he's never lost his spark or his passion. It's what makes Winwin so special. He hasn't had it easy but he's still hard-working and humble and kind. And he's never forgotten his 127 brothers. Before the NCT U shows, he was asked what song he was looking forward to and he said Limitless, which is a 127 song he was part of (I still don't understand why they didn't let him perform it WITH the rest of 127 but that's another story.)

He's really close with his WayV members and so many people have such wonderful things to say about him. Dong Sicheng is a once-in-a-lifetime guy and I'm legitimately honored that I could introduce you to him. He really is one of my all-time favorite idols and it's really humbling to have brought him a new supporter!!

Commentary on NCT 127 Nimdle

I've watched some clips in this before (without context) but this is the first time I'm actually sitting down to watch.

Mission NCTble

Jaehyun threading the needle - somehow he vibes like the kind of guy who would be good at household tasks (like Jaemin lol)

Winwin tying the balloon - No but this is ALWAYS the struggle I have when blowing balloons

Winwin and Yuta popping the balloon - Everyone noting how Yuta is way too happy ^^;; But also the balloon deflating lmao

Taeyong fixing Winwin's microphone as he's busy blowing the balloon for the second time

LMAO Yuta has to peel the tangerine which is inside a wrapped box, tin foil, and plastic wrap T_T I feel like he has a lot more to do than the others

To be honest, I'm not feeling this era where a lot of the members had bowl cuts

Winwin getting REAL up close and personal with blowing the stickies off of Johnny's face lol

Waiting Doyoung has to eat the entire tangerine omg I thought it was just a slice

Mission NCTble Behind the scenes

Wait I can't believe there's a behind the scenes for a 7 minute clip

Winwin getting translation help

Taeyong's so good at catching food in his mouth lol, 100% accuracy

Is Johnny really that much taller than Winwin? News to me lol.

Johnny put the post-its on Winwin's face, and then just turned around and put them on his own face X'D So he was just helping Winwin without needing or letting Winwin help him put his. Winwin really is baobao TAT

Mission NCTble Unseen Footage

Winwin and balloon woes

Mark trying to chest bump Winwin to exemplify popping the balloon without having to tie the opening and it did not work

Snack Delivery

Oh wow each box not only has a pizza but also several side orders?

Can't get over how young Mahae look

Haechan wants to be carried by Johnny and Yuta

Entire team fitting in the massive elevator

Pillow Quiz

Haechan got a boiled egg as reward food lmfao

Yuta gets sad when Winwin watches anime without him ^^;; clingy

Taeyong has a piece of paper over his chest to cover up the name brand lmao

What do you mean Taeyong likes febreze lmao. I'm guessing it's that artificial citrus smell?

Haechan's second reward food: vegetaable wrap XD

Doyoung knows Taeyong so well ^^;; (Taeyong wanted to see Taeil do the TT dance)

Doyoung cooking for Johnny :3

Mark went up to answer and Doyoung complained that there was a queue and Mark was very earnestly going to go line up but Doyoung and Taeyong were like no you silly little bab, just go answer XD

Mark touched da (Jaehyun's) butt pass it on

Oh wow Haechan joined SM before Doyoung. I think Doyoung joined when he was 17 or 18 ("older") compared to all the Dreamies who joined pretty young.

Haechan special handshake with Jaehyun

Doyoung likes huoguo? I know awsaz happened years later so but considering Renjun is the huoguo connoisseur, they'd have something to bond over lol. (But of course tastes change over time.)

Haechan has so many food prizes wow. He is good at games though.

Johnny and Mark both heard boksu as revenge instead of plural ^^;; Just diaspora things.

Both Winwin and Taeil have been pretty quiet for the game ^^;;

The guys are having such a hard time guessing Winwin's third question ("I think it's cute when ___ does ___") and it makes me think that maybe he's just quiet when he's enjoying something so people just don't know lol.

Mark complimenting Haechan's cooking :3

I feel like Winwin's just comfortable watching ^^;;

Oooh so apparently at this time Winwin was still relying more on translation so that's why he isn't as fast as the others. So Yuta was consoling him a bit, and Taeyong worried that Winwin didn't have any food prizes ;_;

Omg Taeyong said to let Winwin answer first ;_; He really did baby Winwin a lot then huh ;_;

Introducing food from Pillow Quiz

So apparently "hot dog" in Korea is more like a corndog

Taeil pinching Mark's ear for being cute :3

Some of the guys randomly got pizza. I'm not sure why.

Make Your Partner Laugh

I've seen the Dowin part of this ^^;; Guess I'll finally get the context

Nooo Taeyong so dejected lol

Winwin's little hop as he's preparing to make his members laugh ^^;;

Doyoung's already anticipating the cute

Taeil wants to be Winwin's lunch partner so bad

Aw the guys sharing their food with Taeil because he has to eat alone

Taeil and Haechan both stealing some instant noodles

Lunch Time

Yuta's mom said that getting something for free is the scariest thing in the world. I guess it's because you don't know what the price is for getting something for free.

Yuta gave his lunchbox to Taeil :3

Yuta sharing the steak with all the others :3

Taeyong's always asking Yuta about Japanese. I remember he would ask him how to say things in the NCT Life trip to Osaka.

Aw Mark already feeling bad for Taeil.

Civilized exchange of two fried shrimp for Haechan's chicken (?)

Mark and Jaehyun aren't the most conversational :P

Mark said "Sharing is Caring" and got told off by Yuta for speaking in English ToT

Honestly salad as dessert is not too bad.

Haechan and Johnny have so much food

Haechan is so social eh :3 First trading chicken for fried shrimp and then delivering pizza to Taeil.

Haechan being like I'm so full my stomach is sticking out and Johnny being like That's how stomachs usually are

Winwin gave part of the sandwich to Taeil and being like "Poor Taeil v.v"

Dowin's first time eating together :3c

Doyoung is the one going out and brokering food trades :P I think Winwin's happy with whatever

The captions called Doyoung the mother bird who kept bringing food back :3

Winwin learning Korean words with Doyoung ;_; Doyoung really has so much patience and care

Haechan taught Winwin how he can share noodles in the lid :3

Taeil's the only one trying to turn this mukbang into a show lol.

Taeil: I've suddenly become rich.

Kkanari Night

I feel like the guys have not been given enough time to practise the dances lol

Winwin got a dud ToT

LMAO Mark performing Bad Girl Good Girl so mechanically

When Doyoung was dancing, Haechan was at the side doing the dance like the cool mom from Mean Girls lol. I think he's helping them as a guide though since he's good at other groups' dances lol.

I think both Haechan and Jaehyun know their assigned dances very well lol.

Winwin just completely freestyling lol. I have a feeling he doesn't know this song at all ^^;;

All the guys learning Winwin's dance so they can help him ;_;

Lol Taeil the catman

Johnny is so embarrassed about the butt wiggle lol

Kkanari Night Behind the Scenes

Ah so Taeil likes playing with ears too (like Junmyeon and Mark). But Taeil was actually folding his ear all the way in like a squish toy ^^;;

Winwin trying to guess beforehand which ones will taste bad and Yuta trying to stop him

Jaehyun briefly doing the TT dance.

Winwin doing the Russian Roulette dance :3

Kkanari Night Unseen Footage

Winwin unsuccessful at pawning off his dance to the others. At that point all of the members would have spent time practising their own parts.

Omg...Doyoung calling for all of the guys to help Winwin. He was like Haechan we need you...please...help coach our Winwin.

Break Time

Winwin playing with the xylophone :3

Jaehyun asking Winwin to sing while he accompanies with xylophone ;_; But Winwin doesn't really want to sing and just goes back to playing with the xylophone.

Haechan comes over to join the party.

Bottle of water?????

Mark explaining Quebec to Taeil lmao. It's cute that Taeil is so curious and asking more about why they speak French.

Twister

Taeyong already in danger mode

Taeil and Winwin are holding it out. I think it's because they're kind of separated on the mat, so they aren't going to cross over each other.

Winwin was in charge of spinning and running the next round and Mark was like "let's do it together" :3 The guys help him out so much :3

Doyoung struggling from turn 1

Ooooh so this is where Jaehyun, Winwin, and Haechan got the pizzas from. I guess the playlist didn't have the games in order ^^;;

Rolling Paper

It doesn't surprise me that the Koreans would have messier handwriting. I think when it comes to the language you're most fluent in, you think faster than you speak so you just want to hurry up and finish writing to get the point across. Whereas especially for the foreigners like Winwin and Yuta who were starting from scratch, they might be taking formal lessons and writing homework.

LOL Jaehyun got frustrated with the guys not being able to read his writing and just said the rest of his message out loud.

After the end the guys were like "...uh so how do we end this" lol.

Johnny's board was mostly in English lmao. I think I saw one message in Korean.

Lol a lot of the guys have limited English so their messages ended up being similar.

Soulless message from Doyoung lol

Haechan's unexpectedly soft message to Doyoung <3

Doyoung knows his members so well, he's guessing all of the writers correctly

Taeyong the guy with a heart the size of a teaspoon ToT Dotae forever squabbling

Jaehyun read Johnny's message and then they had a hug about it and Johnny snuck in an "I love you" in English

Did Yuta really say "let's get married" to Jaehyun ToT

LMAO Haechan was so ready for an ass boop (or a spanking???)

I hen respect you X'D

It's nice that Yuta can write Chinese characters (because of kanji being a thing)

Haechan writing Mandarin but with Korean hangul X'D

Johnny's message to Winwin was really nice though uwu

Omg Johnny's message to Haechan...working hard so that Haechan will grow up to be strong ToT That's very sweet

WAIT did Winwin say he was open to more kissies from Haechan XD Opposite of Yuta who said no more kith

Rolling Paper Behind the scenes

Winwin writing his messages with the help of the interpreter

Taeyong: Our Mark is going through adolescence, there are a lot of things I want to say to him That is so mom of him

Bonus Track

Writing their questions down for the pillow quiz

Winwin determined to find the kkanari with his nose

Getting polaroid shots

Winwin playing with the camcorder

Johnny the weatherman

Omg Mr. Staff's heart skipping a beat after making eye contact with Taeyong X'D

JAEWIN BLUE RED CROSS!!!!! So it looks like after orange lemon cross they just kept the cross thing going on and that's why they still do it ;_;

Winwin so shocked when Yuta told him the camera was already looking for him. A boy who's still not used to idol variety I guess.

Taeil's hand is just stuck to Mark's ear.

After Winwin, Yuta, Jaehyun, and Haechan took a selfie, Winwin went around to Jaehyun to take another one with just the two of them ;_; Jaehyun is Winwin's favourite.

hiiii today's reminder is a notes app list of observations/thoughts from the concert that I kept to say to you lol:

- xiaohenyang black on black dance break I sobbed

- the first VCR started with jungwoo and jeno and I thought they'd do Js first then it went to yuta and my brain said "mera juta hai japani" which is a line from an old Bollywood song meaning "my shoe is japanese" and it cracked me up too much to pay attention to the rest of the VCR

- about the from home stage: RENJUN MY BABY smiling when he made it through his famous voice crack part and all the members putting their mics up to him for the "and it starts from here our home" bit 😭😭😭

- new stages/songs i don't remember being performed before that I loved: Oasis (why does sm hate winwin's voice), kangaroo (i need a well shot performance vid), ok, pado (tho why would they call it pado and not wave bc my brain immediately read it as pedo and then it was a sexy song and I was Disturbed), call d (what does that even mean lol they're not even trying to hide the frat boyness anymore), and you specifically are gonna love bat and alley oop

- why were the mics so bad. why was the camera work so bad, esp in nct u songs where they clearly don't know which part is whose. also they were focusing wayyy too much on close-ups for choreo-heavy songs (rip nectar). also the random hour long delay in between wtf?? tho I did like wayv banter in the meanwhile, speaking of which

- WHY DID THEY CHANGE WAYV'S INTRO TO "TO THE WORLD THIS IS NCITY"?!!!!!!!! also they clearly just tossed wayv up there to buy time while they fix the sets, it was kinda hilarious. they're pushing winwin to act cute and winwin taps his in ear and says "give us more time" (as in the staff asking them to fill up more time before the performance) and they jumped on him with "you can have all the time you want to act cute baby" to which winwin tries to hide behind ten but he's a whole head taller than him lol

- baggy jeans is good and I'm sure it'll grow on me more, but the t7s unit reunion feels wasted on it. love love LOVE ten's rap verse tho

- songs i loved live but really missed the missing members (this is mostly taeil tho sungchan makes a couple of appearances): round& round, my everything, taeil's empty spot in good night broke my heart, misfit, the 90s love bit in resonance. i like that they didn't have anyone cover taeil in 127's songs tho because he really is the heart of their music to me

- conversely: why does winwin still have 0 lines in boss, why not give him you know who's verse??

- apparently the new 127 album will be the most 127-esque yet and should I be scared?

- so so so very few resonance era songs :(

- some beautiful people: chenle, winwin, ten's wayv outfit, jisung in his black outfit (is that allowed???), taeyong's little braids even though I'm not sure how to feel about this hair, KUN 😭, yuta being the only one without a shirt in resonance for some reason

- Kun, Doyoung, jeno and Chenle together in the end that's my husbands and our sons

Hiii!!!, I might be responding super super out of order.

Overall the missing members left a layer of pain the whole time but the members who covered for them did amazing, Yuta hitting taeil's high note my baby did so well. And Jisung too, speaking of, recently I have been fighting any attraction to Jisung back with a stick, but the past day I... Can no longer fight it like hello???? Sir?? Sir?? Also I really noticed how much he and Winwin look alike I used to think it was just their lips but its their cheeks and smiles too. Jisung still looks more like Taylor Swift though. Who is coming to Miami next year! I think it's an amphitheatre so might picnic in the parking lot. Anyway next!

I just wanna talk about how much of a cutie patootie sweetie pie Renjun is every time I see him I'm like heres the boy! and his little smile! His redemption. And just everyone clamoring to him and Winwin, the princes of NCT.

I really didn't want to spoil all of the new songs yet so I just skimmed over them. And I did allow a little more of Bat and you are so right but but I left some surprises and I'll go back after the album release. But Hendery!!!! That is all. Call D, I have so many questions but the sheer vibe of the song answers them. It's not an NCT album without a song covertly about sex. Baggy jeans from what I've heard so far, same I'm not completely sold on it but I didn't hear the whole song so who knows.

The production value was definitely lacking and they seemed confused about how to film it. At least Winwin had a few of you knows lines in Wayv's songs but I always say this but it's cause the first time was so hard but the Yixing vibes are so strong with Winwin, and I worry. SM if you appreciate Winwin and give him everything he needs he won't find it else where just give him more please. Give Wayv more!!! I am an exo-l who's seen a lot and I'm scared okay. I don't want history to repeat itself. Again!! Cause exo was history repeating itself the first time.

I think we should just be prepared for the next 127 album it could honestly be anything, genuinely anything. I think just go in open-minded and ready to hear them out.

And I just wanna add just Xiaojun Yangyang and Hendery, that's it Xiaojun Yangyang and Hendery just wow look at them also.

Ignore the text I don't agree with that, that's just the tiktok. I only okay you know what nevermind.

Also Yuta can *** ****** ** me

SM is really just fucking with my favorite group right now and it's kinda annoying me.

Like, I don't know, I personally feel silly to be agitated but I was really into their whole concept of forever expanding. Like, I looked forward to new members joining, it was fun for me for some reason. Though I could partially understand not wanting anymore members, like could you, in actuality, imagine 30 to 50 people being a group. That’s basically a whole label right there. How do you fit that many people on one track for their annual one song come together. (Black On Black, Resonance, Beautiful). Anyway, other than them not being able to handle that many members, I see no reason to change that concept. But then it’s like why did do that concept in the first place if you feel it would be too much?

I don't know, my thoughts are a bit everywhere and I feel like this new shit is because of the lack of Lee Soo-min being in charge but I don't know anything about that part of things.

Also... if Sungchan, Shotaro, and those 3 other SM Rookies are gonna be a new group... why couldn't they still have been an NCT unit? We suspected that shit anyway and Sungchan and Shotaro already debuted in NCT so...por qué?

All I'm gonna say is they better not pull some dumb ass move like they did before, with Yuta and this new Japanese group (switching Winwin with Jungwoo, and shipping him off to WayV, like we wouldn't notice). They do that, and I honestly feel like imma be done. 127 would be so weird without Yuta and it would be even weirder to have some new motherfucker jumping in to "replace" him.

I know shit changes, but it feels downhill...

Phantom (WayV) - liveblog reaction

Disclaimer: While I usually try to hold off on listening to songs until I can sit down and do a full reaction here with my freshest thoughts, I was simply too excited about new WayV music, so I have listened to all the songs at least once already. That being said, I am also going to skip bonus tracks “Back to You” and “Low Low” because they’ve been around for a while now.

Phantom – I love this humming instrumental. The lower tone raps from Yangyang, Hendery, and Winwin is super interesting and new; I like it a lot! This song is so cinematic and dramatic, and I love it. Vocal trio’s harmonies in the chorus are fire. Yangyang’s rap after the first chorus is awesome with the lower whispery tone. Xiaojun sounds great at 1:42. I’m really excited to see the choreography for this. Harmony at 2:10 (mostly Kun?) very nice. “You can say uh-uh.” Bridge build from Kun to Ten to Xiaojun with the stringed (cello?) instrumental behind it is fantastic. So WayV. I think it’s Ten at 3:13 with that texture in his voice! Stunning! I love this.

Diamonds Only – This song makes me want to dance. Very good beat. Xiaojun at 0:29; his voice is so strong, wow. This chorus has me jamming out in my chair. Is this Winwin at 1:08? (Edit: Yes.) I like it. Overlapping voices at 1:17 to 1:21 (Ten and Hendery, I think) is a great arrangement choice. (Edit: Ten and Hendery and Yangyang!) Harmony between Kun and Ten at 1:43! Hello! Sounds so good. I wasn’t sold on this song when the track video was first released, but it’s so danceable, and listening to it more closely reveals some very fun vocal choices. I’m not fabulously keen on the Hendery then Yangyang raps starting at 2:38, but the chorus is so catchy, so I think this song overall wins good marks in my book. I also don’t love the “diamonds” and “icy” spoken bits, but still!

Good Life – A bit softer now. Feels like it sits at the same table as “Good Time.” I’m really digging this instrumental. “I want to know what that’s like / No problems, good life.” I bet you do! Winwin at 1:08? (Edit: Yep!) It’s fun to hear him get more lines, especially rap lines. He has a pretty distinctive voice and I think it lends itself well to this lower rap tone this mini seems to be exploring more. While I preferred the chorus over the verses of “Diamond Only,” I think I definitely prefer the verses over the chorus in this song. I’ve definitely been really feeling layered vocals recently, and the sung lines over the more shouty rap at 2:17 is no exception. Ten over Hendery, maybe? (Edit: Yes, it is.) Instrumental melody at 2:42 very fun! Oh, Yangyang. This final bit is definitely something they’d give Johnny were this an NCT 127 song.

Broken Love – Ballad time, baby! A bit jazzy. As much as I adore the vocal trio, I like that they decided to bring the whole group in for this ballad, just because it’s new. Funky and fresh. Ten sounds so good at 0:49. (Edit: The lyrics video I looked up says that’s Xiaojun there, but I’m not sure I believe it...) I feel like they’re definitely pushing Winwin into the low tone parts that historically might have gone to Lucas. His voice gives it a very different effect, but I’m not complaining! Rap in ballad-style songs is always a risk, imo, but Yangyang at 1:50 pulls it off beautifully. He suits so many styles. The combination of vocals starting around 2:24 is lovely—I think Xiaojun is leading? Kun sounds great at 2:39. Xiaojun’s voice is so emotive and beautiful. Ah, that key change. I wonder if this “mei hao” repeated lyric is 美好 (beautiful) or 没好 (not good)? (Edit: It’s 美好.)

Bounce Back – Oh, this is funky. Dancing in the club vibes. Is this Ten at 0:14? (Edit: Yes.) Sounds great. Followed by Kun? Also great! “I fall down / I rise up” at 0:25 Winwin? Or Hendery? (Edit: It’s Winwin.) Yeah, this chorus supremely makes me want to dance, and the lyrics feel so spot-on on for WayV right now. Bounce back! Come back! Yeah! I don’t love Hendery’s rap tone, but I think he balances Yangyang really well. I think Ten is carrying this song so far. Oh, here comes Xiaojun, always so strong. “Whoo!” Vocal trio ad libbing over Winwin’s then Hendery’s raps at 2:16 is a great arrangement. Harmony in this building bridge is 🔥🔥🔥 I’m enjoying this piano. Is this a Kun and Ten harmony for the high note? (Edit: Hm, might be Ten and Xiaojun actually.) Something about this song also reminds me of “Good Time” too actually. Final voice (Ten?) was a good ender for this song.

Try My Luck – BACK TO THE CINEMATIC DRAMA! This feels like the perfect bookends with title track “Phantom.” I like this beat a lot. Xiaojun at 0:45, then with the harmony coming in, is fantastic. So good. Who is this rapping immediately after the first chorus? (Edit: Winwin.) Who is this at 1:34? (Edit: Winwin again!) I usually think I’m pretty good at recognizing WayV’s voices, but they’re all exploring new areas with this comeback, which I love. Composition at 2:24 with the powerful voices then the softer rap response is very fun. 2:45 Xiaojun!!!!!!!!!!!!! This song is soooooo fun. Would make such a great life performance imo. “Hit the jackpot!” It sure did!

Final thoughts: I am biased by how much I love WayV and how long it’s been since their last mini. But. But! I loved this. I think my favorite song is “Try My Luck,” but I really enjoyed them all! (“Broken Love” was a little less interesting to me, but that’s par for the course for ballads tbh.) Ignoring the two bonus tracks, the bookmarks of “Phantom” to “Try My Luck” really tied this mini album up together well.
