"well, if i pick jiwoong, hanbin still has hao"

i believe he even said "if i pick hanbin, hanbin still has hao" which is like worse bc why can't hanbin have two friends lmfao (why does it remind me of how i get salty when my friends get partners and they ditch me)

i kinda don't wanna look up the video because i get very bad second hand embarassment and that whole thing gave me it

i know most people agree on this, but i'm glad i'm not the only one who finds this particular moment really painful bc of second hand embarrassment to the point i can't watch it

Any thoughts about the clip or their relationship?

Matthew is so straight to me unless his whole Woohyun oppa agenda is a master scheme to cover up the fact he's into men, but he also seems particularly enthusiastic about gay fanservice and Jiwoong does gay fanservice for a living so he doesn't mind (whether he's into men or not)

in conclusion a very fanservice-y duo in my opinion, but i do think they genuinely like each other as friends

the clip looks suspicious though ngl

But honestly, most Haobin shippers I have come across are not really delusional or toxic(like Taekook levels), they take their interactions very lightheartedly and in good fun. No one is really making conspiracy theories on how these two are actually dating or overanalyzing their relationship, they just simply enjoy their friendship and want to support them as fans in the long run.

i think the difference in haobin shippers and other popular ships is that bc of the gayllegations that both of them have individually people think that there's a very high possibility of them actually liking eo so there's no need to constantly find "proof" or "evidence" as with many other ships where the interactions can be seen more as them simply being really close friends bc we don't even know if they lean that way

of course haobin could just be friends even if they're both gay or they could not be gay but people seem to mostly genuinely think they're into each other and almost want to protect them instead (bc then the shipping starts entering outing territory)

it reminds me of ppls reaction to matthew saying that hanbin still has hao too if he were to choose him, instead of people being like omg proof that haobin is real!!! there seemed to be more of a reaction of slight discomfort and saying matthew has no media training (not hating on matthew and people found it funny too, just pointing out the reactions to that whole thing)

but of course there are also those who are just the same as taekook shippers and only care about the ship being real

this is just how i've interpreted the reactions though, maybe i'm in an echo chamber or have misread things so feel free to disagree
