#conclusion: it feels like they're trying to force us to hypersexualise him/adopt their view of him

Ive noticed that too…. Tbh im not sure exactly why it is bc i havent been a mbb long enough to know exactly when they started to oversuxualize and porject onto him so intensely but if i had to guess it would be since 2019-ish when he started to go from round-faced babie to chiseled hot guy. Overall i think ck is a pretty popular member (not sure if i can say The Most popular but he’s definitely up there) and i think its partially because he speaks English fluently and since they’ve started to promote and expand to a wider western audience this new wave of fans just picked him up bc he was more convenient to stan. Plus we can’t deny that he IS pretty charming and he does enable a lot of this delulu/projections with the way he interacts with fans (whether i agree with it or not is not really the point here but i think we know where i stand). Also over the time ive been into kpop ive observed that the more quiet and mysterious members are usually the more popular ones, and i was pretty surprised by that bc thats almost never the case for me kskdkdk

I really like to hear a ck stan’s pov on this. Also this is obv not the case with all of them but most of the ‘solo stans’ ive seen on this fandom have been ck stans. U know like fans who only care abt their own bias and maybe their wrecker.

Oh I wholeheartedly agree with you that he is indeed a pretty charming man.... he knows how to use his guiles to beguile... but even then, I've noticed that in the past, what two years maybe three since Love Killa (and Wonho's departure) actually, that there's a rise of a new kind of - like you said - solo Kyun stans. And like, the way they go about just talking about him kind of unsettles me a bit. Maybe I'm old, maybe it's because I come from a rock/metal background... who knows... But just like my sister noted (she too is a Monbebe and a Kyunbebe), these new stans don't even care about his music - they're mostly there for his looks .

I don't know, I guess I've seen one too many videos on the tiktok hypersexualising him... and it really has me wondering when it became a thing. But also, it's not just him, it's all the members but he just gets the brunt of it.

And yes, I too, would love to hear what Kyun-stans have to say about this/their perspective.
