Fans’ reactions:
These guys are your last chance MBK. Take care of them and don’t make a mess this time, too. When he smiles, he kinda reminds me of Kim Taehyung, V of BTS. Sorry, but I found out about BAE173 because of this guy. And, I think I’m gonna stand by the whole group because of him. His visuals are so intriguing, plus he has some resemblance to Kim Taehyung. This group will keep bias wrecking me (Hangyul is my bias atm)!! I have no clue why, but to me, he looks like Yuchan from A.C.E and Subin from VICTON. Still, he looks like someone.
