MNH Entertainment’s (home of Chung Ha & the disbanded BVNDIT) new boy group 8TURN has released the 2nd set of individual concept photos of Haemin & Kyungmin for their upcoming debut mini-album “8TURNRISE” which is scheduled to be released on January 30th.

It's so cute how close the members are in this Group.

I absolutely love being A part of this fandom and I know they will make it big...

I'm definitely OT8

Especially when I can't bring myself to choose just one BIAS.

[sanstropfremir]

hello again !! idk if u paid any attention to their debut or if u have any interest at all but id love to hear ur thoughts on 8TURN's debut Tic Tac !! theyre FRESH (like less than a week fresh) and i rly loved their debut stage styling with the black white and pink hehe

hi!! i did see their debut! not really a fan of the song but the styling is really good so far! the orange outfits from the mv were my fave, but their stage styling and all the backwards jeans have been very 00s and very fun. not really any comprehensive thoughts so far because they're not really doing anything new or that interesting performance wise, but i'll keep an eye on them.

Hi, idk if ur taking requests but I wanted to request a 8turn reaction to their sunbae idol crush saying that she is a big fan of them and 8turn on an interview or vlive or an 8turn reaction to their sunbae idol s/o who's a rapper and dancer hitting a high that wasn't in the performance or hitting another members high note cuz they put the mic in their face and they just sang it like it was nothing

Srry for the long request but I love ur works so far hope u have a good day/night and take care <33

𝐚/𝐧: Thank you for your request! I did your 1st idea because I didn't really understand the 2nd one sorry! I hope this is okay <3

✧~𝐌𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐨~✧

His jaw would drop as soon as Jaeyun brought up your name.

"Did you see y/n's live?"

"What are you talking about haha?"

His face would be sooooooooooooo red

Jayun showed him the play back and he was s h o c k e d to say the least

"Some one said play TIC TAC, by 8TURN? I love them stop- I learnt the dance the other day, shall I post a tiktok later? Okay! I will I promise!"

"OMG?!"

"If I learnt [your groups dance] would it be to obvious?"

✧~𝐉𝐚𝐞𝐲𝐮𝐧~✧

He would pace around the dorms

"oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,"

Minho would stop him and say,

"What is wrong with you Jaeyun?"

"DID YOU SEE Y/N'S INTERVIEW?!"

"No?! Why, did she declare her undeniable love for you?!"

"Shut uuuuuuuup, she said that she's our fan look,"

"What is the last song you listened to?"

"On the way here I was listening to WE by 8TURN, they're new but oh my lord they're so good!"

He could swear his heart stopped.

✧~𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐡𝐨~✧

"YOONSUNG?! DID I HEAR THAT RIGHT?!"

His head shot up

"What?! I'm watching [your group]'s livestream, shut up hyung,"

"DID Y/N JUST SAY THAT I'M HER BIAS?!"

"Yeah I think so?"

"STOP PLEASE I CAN DIE HAPPILY, DO YOU STILL TALK TO HER?!"

"Yeah sometimes, not much since our debut though?"

"WELL TALK TO HER SOON AND TELL HER THAT I LOVE HER!"

"You want me to say that? I will, don't test me."

"NO DON'T ACCTUALLY!"

"Whatever Minho."

✧~𝐘𝐨𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐧𝐠~✧

"SHE KNOWS WHO I AM?!"

Haemin nearly dropped off his bed

"Oh my god Yoonsung what's up with you?!"

"YOU KNOW Y/N FROM [your group]?"

He nodded while still holding his chest

"SHE SAID THAT SHE STANS 8TURN IN AN INTERVIEW,"

"That's cool, at least we're getting recognition y'know?"

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT! SHE SAID THAT SHE KNOWS WHO I AM! THIS IS A BIG DEAL HAEMIN?!"

"god, calm down,"

He rolled his eyes

"You know [Haemin's idol crush]?"

His head perked up

"Yeah?"

"She posted a video dancing to TIC TAC,"

"WHAT?!"

✧~𝐇𝐚𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐧~✧

He was walking through the corridors of MNH when he saw a screen on the wall showing your interview.

"I've been listening to 8TURN recently! My favourite member? It changes but at the moment it's probably Minho, I liked his outfit!"

He could swear his heart stopped beating

He pulled his phone out and quickly dialled Minho's number

"Oh my god oh my god, Minho hyung?

"Are you alright?!"

"Not mentally no!"

"You know Y/n right?!"

"Yeah of course,"

"She said that your her bias!"

"HAHA REALLY?!"

"IT'S NOT FUNNY!"

"Did she say it was because of my handsome face, or my perfect build?"

"STOP! She said it was your outfit."

"Have you seen twitter?"

"What do you mean?!"

"She said that she's changer her bias already."

"I'll call you back."

*I changed my 8TURN bias already! I didn't notice Haemin's ski glasses!*

Haemin. literally. squealed.

✧~𝐊𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐦𝐢𝐧~✧

"Oh my lord. YUNGYU HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?!"

"Huh?! Seen what?! Stop shouting."

"Y/N SAID THAT SHE LIKES 8TURN ON LIVE!"

"woah cool!"

"AND......SHE SPECIFICALLY DID MY DANCE MOVE!"

"Oh god I forgot about your obsession with her,"

"stop obsession makes it sound weird! I just really like her work,"

"Yeah sure,"

"Stoppppppp"

"You're red,"

"I hate you,"

"I hate you as well,"

"You should respect your hyungs Yungyu,"

"Shut up or I'll put a picture of your [your group] album collection on weverse"

-----

"Not so talkative now huh?"

✧~𝐘𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐲𝐮~✧

"OMG"

"OMG"

"OMG"

"OMG"

"Stop Yungyu what's up?"

He was sat on the end of his bed, clutching his laptop screen

"You know Y/n? She mentioned ME on her live! Not 8TURN, ME!"

"And how did that come up?"

Jaeyun wandered toward him, peaking at the screen.

"Loooooooook!"

"I was walking through the corridors the other day and I saw Yungyu from 8TURN! He is so cute, I remember we watched their debut showcase and he is so adorable!"

"SHE SAID I WAS CUTE!"

"Aha, congratulations Yungyu!"

"You sound so sarcastic hyung!"

"I don't mean to I promise!"

"whatever"

He shoved his shoulder and sighed dramatically

Jaeyun rolled his eyes and laughed at him

"Your so mean to me"

✧~𝐒𝐞𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐧~✧

"Hyung?"

Myungho stirred in his sleep,

"Hyuuuuung?"

The sleeping boy groaned

"HYUNG?!"

He shot up and shouted,

"AH, Oh my god Seungheon what is it?!"

"You know y/n from [your group], she said that she likes 8TURN?!"

"cool,"

"What do you mean cool? IT'S AMAZING,"

He placed his fingers in his ears and winced at his shouting,

"so your telling me you woke me up JUST TO TELL ME THAT?!"

"It's important Myungho. No one else is home,"

"Go away,"

"IT'S BIG SHE KNOWS WHO I AM?!"

"GO AWAY SEUNGHEON?!"

[aquablues-archive]

anyway i hold a grudge against 8turn/bom whatever they are bc mnh disbanded bvndit for them like couldn’t u wait a few years

[outsidereveries]

honestly i think zerobaseone’s rival is smnbg.. like you said we are excluding boynextdoor but i dont have other new rookies bgs in my mind atm..who gonna complete the competition along zerobaseone and smnbg?

I would add xikers and 8TURN, lol

[from earlier readings]

ZB1's success (overall from 2023 to 2026): they might do quite well compared to some other boy groups but won't be this much relateable

boynextdoor (from curiouscat request - rookie years): quick fame, scandal pops up, relevance shriiiiinking down .. maybe as much as zb1? not sure

[readings that i did for this]

smnbg: has the potential to be "viral" at some point, they will gain their fanbase slowly and steady

xikers: they could have also their viral moment too and will have stable fandom

8turn: mnh will treat them so and so probably because chung ha left their company so their main income is gone now: their comebacks will be infrequent and possibly delayed and this will influence their low popularity and relevance

if i have to place them: smnbg - xikers - zb1 - boynextdoor - 8turn (for now, zb1 might be after smnbg but it depends on them)

edit: i’ve mixed some readings, again, sorry for that. it’s edited now

8TURN MINHO SLAYS!

[kpopmultifan]

MNH Entertainment’s (home of Chung Ha & the disbanded BVNDIT) new boy group 8TURN has released the 2nd set of individual concept photos of Yungyu & Seungheon for their upcoming debut mini-album “8TURNRISE” which is scheduled to be released on January 30th.

[onceuponmykpop]

I'm looking forward to their DEBUT!!

With Kyungmin being the reason I began following this Group, I found myself falling in love with all of them...

They knew what they were doing when they made cuteness the focus of his Concept photo because Seungheon is such an adorable person.

Just like the Maknae of the groups, Yungyu is adorble. From his personality to his looks, it's hard not to like him.

Haemin's voice throws you off completely... it's not what you expect, but at the same time his height throws you off completely as well.

Being the one to always keep the members bright and cheerful, Yoonsung is such a character that always puts a smile on my face.

I absolutely love the way Minho takes care of the other members, and how affectionate he can be. He's such a lovable person.

Although he is the oldest and also seems like the silent type, Myungho is such a sweetheart that caught my eye. Not to mention his voice!

I cannot get enough of his talent and personality.

And can I just say how happy I was to find out that Jaeyun was from NEW ZEALAND! And seeing it mentioned as his nationality made me STAN him instantly, not to mention how talented and funny he is...

Mind you, everyone in this group is talented and funny, and they are all like adorable cinnamon rolls.

omgg yass (that was requested by omi)

FIRST OF ALL, 8TURN BEACH EPISODE COMING TO LIFE ???? THIS IS LITERALLY EVERYTHING AUUUGGHH the boys literally NEED an its my turn beach episode cuz itd actually be illegal if there never was one idk 🤷‍♀️ BUT if it never is a thing i can still turn to this and my hopes and dreams will be almost completely fulfilled and that is MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR ME CUZ THIS IS SO CUUTEEEE

(dedicated 2minz paragraph incoming) this just made me love 2minz even more than i already do like i think i might actually die because haemin picking up everything kyungmin dropped is THE CUTEST THING IVE EVER HEARD OF AND IMAGINED GOODBYE they r literally just so precious and that mention perfectly encompassed it UGHHH i literally cant ur brain is so amazing for thinking of that bye

and all of the rest of the little details like yoonsung and his sand castles LMFAOOOO thats very much valid for yoonsung AND very much you coded AND ALSO the mention of ppl squealing over myunghos abs LMFAOO if i saw him id pull out some binoculars to see closer cuz id be in sheer disbelief of how unreal his abs look like idk … and MINHO HASSLING SEUNGHEON W THE SUNSCREEN LMFAOOO one of the realest things ive read in a while (besides 2minz)

yungyu and yns dynamic has me in a chokehold actually cuz its ADORABLE BYE ugh the mutual teasing is just everything to me and i loved the part where yn tells yungyu to keep the water on his side of the ocean LMFAOO also the moment right before jaeyun tells yungyu and yn to not cause a scene (hes so dadcore its painful) …. omg i got butterflies actually if i were either of them irl i think id die of a heart attack on accident

two words: BEACH! VOLLEYBALL! that is also an essential in the 8turn beach episode like idfc if they play regular volleyball or that bs foot volleyball but VOLLEYBALL ON THE BEACH IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST (i say as ive never played volleyball on a beach before ??? we have to do that when we meet up)

ugh but omg … yungyu admiring reader before she fell asleep … crying emojis it was SO CUTEEEE UGH it had me blushing more than when haemin spoke twice like MAYBBEE it was just a tiny bit creepy BUT ill excuse it cuz its yungyu and he can do no wrong actually

and then when the two WOKE UP ??? UGH i think i developed cavities in my eyes cuz it was so sweet like the ‘scared ur gonna fall in love w me’ then the ‘i cant be scared of sumn that already happened’ SERIOUSLY GOT ME UUHGGHH and the ‘what.’ ‘what?’ parts WERE SO CUTE AND FUNNY and also the sudden kiss when seungheon and minho came to tease them LMFAOO ugh just all the dynamics and interactions were so good I LOVED ITTTT

i am SO happy u wrote the 8turn beach episode cuz u made it perfect LIKE ALWAYS! idk how u think of all of this stuff but its VERY MUCH IMPRESSIVE! u should win a nobel peace prize for this fic idk cuz u solved every world problem w the 8turn beach episode and i will always worship the ground u walk on cuz of this even if ur walking on hot dusty ass sand I AM JUST SO ECSTATIC OVER THIS

idek what else to say like … im out of words actually like 8turn beach episode (omi’s version) took my breath away ITS EVERYTHINGGGGG and i hope it becomes real cuz again NOT having an 8turn beach ep would be quite literally against the law and the ceo of mnh should be arrested for that (by me and u specifically we should just become cops together)

CHEERS TO THE CUTEST BANGERY OMI BANGER OF THE CENTURY! 🥂

SLEEPING UNDER THE SUN

it was the groups day off, meaning there was free range to do anything you guys pleased. when a beach day was recommended, it was happily agreed upon, therefore everyone prepared! when you and yungyu play too hard, you both sit down to relax; unknowing that sleep was creeping on the two of you.

PAIRING lee yungyu x fem!reader WC 2.1k TAGS best friends to lover trope. fluff. minor swearing. beach hangout. reader and gyu tease eachother like a lot. vague description of body. OMI NOTE this imagine has been something i've been dying to write because not only am i madly in love with yungyu, this is literally the scenario i've been dreaming about adhjb he is so precious. this isn't really a blurb but it's definitely not a super long thought out idea so it's not proofread. enjoy the sillies.

the melodic sound of waves washing upon the shore filled your ears. sand beneath your feet was hot, making you speed up slightly as you followed behind the group. everything took you by surprise, the calming atmosphere you weren’t used to, that was about to be completely ruined by the pandemonium of your friends.

at this point, you were unable to get a single word in before minho was running after seungheon and kyungmin was accidentally dropping items one by one while walking to the spot jaeyun chose. haemin followed closely behind, making sure to pick up everything the clumsy boy let fall. you could practically hear him rolling his eyes while kyung walked unknowingly.

all of their excitement was prominent, as it was their weekend off in awhile. it made your lips perk up into a smile, seeing them get to be kids again. however you weren’t one to talk, having been extremely busy as well.

the closer you got, the more you felt the salty breeze blowing through your hair. it covered up the summer heat seamlessly. setting your beach bag and cooler down on the towel that was set up, letting out a long sigh of relief after holding the heavy items.

“y/n ah are you excited?!” yungyu jumped up and down happily.

“i think i might die because i am very excited. i’ve been wanting to come to the beach forever!” you grin, giving off the same energy.

“okay because we better swim out as far as possible into the ocean before yoonsung ropes us into a sand castle competition.” he puts his hand over his eyes to block out sunlight, looking for his hyung that seemed to of disappeared.

“hey, what’s wrong with building sand castles? they’re fun!”

“um because he takes it way too seriously! if there aren’t moats and sand - people in his castle he starts whining like a baby.” 

“good point. let’s go!” you grab his hand quickly and start booking it down the shore, oblivious to the bright shade of maroon that tinted yungyu’s cheeks. it was way too early to get sunburnt, so he couldn’t hide his blush.

“come back soon, we’re gonna prep the net for beach volleyball!” kyungmin says, making the both of you nod in return.

small puffs of sand kicked behind you while you ran, soon replaced by splashes of water. the ocean water was warm, rising from your knees to your chest the farther you went in.

once you were at a comfortable level where the currents were calm and the sun shone brightly above, you let yourself relax. small strands of seaweed swam under the water, tickling your legs

“this is the greatest ever.” you float around calmly.

“somehow i can hear the random passerbys shrieking about myungho’s abs from here.” 

“jealous cause his abs are better than yours?” you wiggle your eyebrows.

“what’s that supposed to mean?!” he furrows his eyebrows.

“hehe i’m just kidding gyu, i like your abs.” you pause for a second, “wait– not in that way! i’m just saying they’re perfectly acceptable!”

“whhh–” 

“um, anyways! do you think seungheon is going to come out with us anytime soon?” you question, looking back at the black haired boy.

“he’s probably being hassled by minho to put on sunscreen so i doubt he saw us come out.” yungyu shook his head still flustered, swimming to get closer next to you.

“speaking of sunscreen, you might need some. you look really red, gyu!” you frown.

“psh– what are you talking about i am totally not red, you’re seeing things.” he splashed some water in your direction to distract you.

“what was that for?!” you splash back, “keep this water on your side of the ocean.”

“bro there is water everywhere.”

“you know what i mean you idiot.”

“oh really? so if i got some of my water on you what would happen hmm?” he teased, scooping some water in his hand to throw at your face. while you failed to shield yourself, some of it got in your mouth.

“yungyu!” you cough, going after him as he started swimming to shore. “i’m a faster swimmer than you are!” he yelled behind him.

you tailed behind yungyu, letting the waves carry you faster towards him and the shore, immediately chasing him as soon as you were free from the ocean. 

“yungyu you loser, get your ass back over here!” you shout.

“get away!”

catching up quickly, you tackle him down into the sand. you sat on top of him, playfully rubbing sand in his hair while he screams for help. 

too caught up in the moment, you didn’t account how your position atop yungyu was oddly romantic; halfway through, you were teasing him out of embarassment rather than actual anger. you heard a voice call out to you, interrupting your innocent giggles.

“y/n! yungyu! you both have to stop making a scene oh my god..” jaeyun waves both of you back.

looking back at the boy beneath you, he’s wearing a sheepish smile. he was panting exhaustedly, letting his arms flop to his sides in defeat. the both of you shared a similar shy expression, now aware of the position you were in.

“ah– i’m sorry gyu i didn’t mean to get carried away..” you swing your leg back over his body and pull him up from the floor.

“no no no it’s okay! we were just teasing eachother it’s fine. giving in so easily?” he jokes, dipping his hand in a wave that washed up and running it through his hair in an attempt to get some sand out.

“never. you look silly with all those speckles in your hair, i’d say it was deserved.” 

“whatever you say. let’s go see what hyung is up to.” he beams, switching in demeanor.

both of you get up from your spot on the sand and walk up to where everyone was hanging out. there were folding chairs set up alongside two umbrellas that were big enough to keep everyone in the shade. 

everyone chat amongst themselves while minho chopped up fruit to share with the group. you sat next to yungyu on a towel and shared watermelon from a little tupperware.

“looks like you guys were having fun.” haemin commented in between bites.

“something of the sorts.” you respond, reaching over to grab another piece of the refreshing snack.

“hey! haemin she’s just mad that she swallowed a little bit of water.” yungyu tells him.

“sixty - six percent of the water in my body is now half salt water, thanks.” you roll your eyes.

“you two argue like a couple.” haemin mentions, before getting up to put his empty container back in the cooler.

like a couple? the though itself made butterflies dance around in your stomach; you quickly darted your gaze away from yungyu, too nervous to look and him and try not to imagine what it would be like to actually be together.

today was slightly off for you, having been made self aware of just how close you and him have been throughout the day. and to add onto it, the day had just begun.

some time passed before everyone grouped up to play some beach volleyball. it wasn’t a group hangout if they weren’t playing on some kind of bet. according to jaeyun, losing team would have to pitch in together to buy ice cream at the end of the day.

this was extremely in character, and you were not planning on losing against them. after the teams were separated, everyone played for awhile.

the game got quite intense, some casual shit talking between both groups. yungyu and jaeyun had that disgusted look on their faces whenever they were met with eachother, only separated by the measly net. this sight made you laugh, taking a mental photo.

after awhile, the scores were practically tied. in the middle of this, everyone decided to take a thirty minute break to re - energize with lunch that was packed earlier in the morning. it was an under statement to say that you were exhausted.

yungyu laid out on a towel that was sheltered by the umbrellas, mindlessly scrolling through his phone. you followed right behind him, letting yourself lay your head on his chest. he was your best friend, and these types of contact were normal in your friendship, however part of you swore you heard his heartbeat quicken.

“are you tired already?” he mumbled above you.

“a little. myungho’s hits are not to fuck with, remind me not to get in a fight with him like.. ever.”

“y/n, anyone here could fold you.”

“i’m too sleepy to fight back with you.” you sigh, letting your eyes close.

“i better not catch you falling asleep, stupid.” he complains sarcastically, while you let out a small ‘mhm’ in response.

at that point, he decides to let you be for a little while. you were the sleepiest person he’s ever known, having the ability to pass out anywhere and everywhere. the rest knew this, and most of the time paying no mind to it.

however, only a few minutes passed before your breathing measured to a steady pace, your face relaxed, and you didn’t feel your damp bathing suit clinging to your body anymore. yungyu glanced down a little and noticed this, poking at your cheek.

he stared at you, letting a smile play on his lips. it was easier to admire you when you weren’t going back and forth teasing eachother. maybe haemin was right, anyone who didn’t look twice would think there was some kind of romantic relationship between the two of you.

and just like you, that was something he hoped for. he just didn’t exactly knew how you felt yet. blissfully unaware, gyu wrapped his arm around you and pulled you closer to him, planting a soft kiss on your forehead. his hand lay in the dip of your waist, fingers slightly ghosting over your elbow as you hugged yourself.

“god i wish you knew how i felt about you.” he said, the only words that left his lips before he let his eyes shut, sleep overtaking him as well.

the feeling of skin against yours became more noticeable as you came out of your sleep spell. feeling groggy, your eyes blink open slowly, immediately being met with the boy you were laying on.

“gyu?!” you shot up, looking around you to see the rest of the boys off playing by the shore, then looking back at him.

“good morning to you too.” yungyu yawned.

“did i seriously fall asleep on you? how long was i out?”

“we weren’t asleep for that long, don’t worry. probably fourty - five minutes at most. “ he checked his phone, confirming his suspicions. 

“shit, everyone is probably waiting for us to start the game.” you groan, rubbing your eyes.

“hey, it’s our day to relax. they probably don’t care and it’s only four thirty.” he mutters, using his arm still snaked around your waist to pull you closer to him.

“ah– when did you get so bold?” you squeak out.

“when i saw how cute you looked cuddled up against me.” he confesses casually.

“what.”

“what?”

“dude you can’t just say that! oh my god my heart..” you cover your face with your hands, embarrassed.

“scared you’re gonna fall in love with me?” he makes a gap between your middle and pointer finger to see your eye.

“i can’t be very scared for something that already happened.” you stutter.

“what.”

“what?”

“okay now you’re doing it! what the hell?!” he whines, removing your hands from your face.

“you started it first you idiot.” you pout, furrowing your eyebrows slightly.

“i’m just trying to get my point across! i was attempting to be suave with it.” he bites down on his bottom lip.

“and what exactly is your point?” 

“that i like you, and best friends don’t exactly do the things that we do.” his voice gets quiet, the atmosphere suddenly feeling heavy.

“yungyu..”

“i’m not trying to ruin our relationship or anything but–” 

“i like you too, yungyu.” you interrupted him.

“i think everyone kinda sorta knew that.” seungheon appeared behind both of you guys, followed by minho. 

the two of you jumped, looking in their direction. they both started laughing at both of your blushing faces. 

“way to interrupt a moment little bro.” yungyu stated before chucking a seashell in his direction.

“you’re growing up too fast you guys, you better not be kissing all the time from now on!” minho lectures.

“oh? like this?” you grab yungyu’s face, leaving a kiss on his lips to poke fun at minho.

yungyu’s eyes go wide, shocked at the sudden contact between the two of you. his fingers move over his lips, still feeling yours ghosting over them.

“gross, not in front of us!” seungheon pleaded, minho covering his eyes in disgust. both of them walked away teasingly, leaving you and gyu alone.

“boyfriend has a nice ring to it, yeah?” you think.

“better than best friend.”
