My last appreciation thread for Pentagon in 2018 :)

I've been meaning to make a thread similar to this for a few days. inspired by something Hui had said in a vlive... but I wanna just take this chance to appreciate all the members <3
 
Pentagon is the group that makes me most emotional. they make me really happy... but also really sad.
i love seeing their hardwork and their talent, and to see others appreciate them. it made me really happy to see them (one of their songs) get really popular this year. the song was even released on bday, and i thought i'd always look back fondly on it every year because of what Shine has done for Pentagon. but because of the mess that occurred around Pentagon in the latter half of this year... it really depressed me and those were really hard months for us universe. Not being able to know whats happening behind the scenes... being surround by people who use Pentagon for clout. And when we finally knew what was happening (tho I had the premonition), there's been drama in our fandom vs being ot9 or ot10. Ill just say i am the former. People now using ex-member for clout & to belittle Pentagon. 
 
But I'll continue loving and support Pentagon no matter what uwu. Ever since everything started happening, they went a little while not posting on twitter, they eventually resumed. They also used to regularly have vlive and post on fancafe. There was a few group vlives since and a few solo vlive in the beginning of the month. But since christmas, they all started posting on fancafe again on daily basis, and they've had 4 vlives since then too <3
 
Even though the latter part of this year has been a hard n dramatic one for Pentagon & Universe. I look forward to the future and them continuing to succeed . Hoping for great 2019
 
Now onto to what i meant to make thread for
 
Hui
The other day on a vlive said this: "There are a lot of things I wanted to say to Universes. My personality, as everyone knows, I'm not good at showing things in front of people. I'm very very thankful. I'm very very thankful to fans who always come to every broadcast and to fans who are supporting us from afar. / Universes who've been beside us supporting us, working hard, giving us infinite love ever since we dreamt of becoming singers until now, I'm sincerely really really thankful." (translation cr) Hui is so amazing. he's an amazing & caring, he leads pentagon so well. he is amazing main vocal & makes them very amazing songs... even makes songs for other artists. And i feel like everytime i mention Hui or have made thread abt him this year. I always include his Breakers performance "For You" bc its a beautiful song and when he sings to pentagon in the crowd, they cry..i cry.. but his other performances on Breakers were also amazing :>


 
Jinho
imo.. Jinho's Magazine Ho is one of the best things thats ever happened in kpop. like.. seriously. And there's 23 of them. wow. Actually the 24th should be in a few hours~ And they are all amazing. He's even had live shows for Magazine ho. there was one, and there is another one upcoming. It gives me chills to watch sm the ballad, and him now, still so amazing... and the thought he almost didnt continue trying to be an idol and just be a vocal coach. i'm sure he still helps others as a coach, but the world really deserves to see his talent on a spotlight. He even makes amazing bsides for pentagon. My favourites being Alright & One More Night. cute pocket hyung uwu

Hongseok
Hongseok is actually a big part of why I'm a universe since the beginning...and prob still holds relevance to how big of a fan of them I am & still am a fan today/. I discovered kpop in 2012 due to G.NA and since then I've been to varying degrees fan of pretty much every group/soloist that came from the company at one time or another. so when Pentagon was announced in Dec 2015 my interest was immediately piqued. tho there wasnt much to know about the PTG pre-Pentagon besides Kino, Yeo One & Hui as back up dancers (mainly for G.NA - g.na's secret), hongseok/jinho as yg/sm trainees, & the pics on cube.tree insta. What stuck with me from beginning was watching a compilation video of Hongseok's performances on mix & match. I really loved his singing & voice. plus he is cute. I got sorta obsessed that by proxy I was obsessed & anticipating Pentagon. Even tho he's not my bias anymore. ofc I love them all & esp for him that he like, got me to be a fan of PTG.

 
Shinwon
Here's something Shinwon had just posted,

(cr)
Pentagon maker was never really a survival show. But there was a moment where Shinwon was 'eliminated'. iirc part of me knew they wouldnt debut without all 10. or I was at least pretty sure. So it didnt shock me when he was in their predebut Mv when we didnt see him for a lil before then. But it's so crazy to me. Shinwon being seen as one of the lesser members and just visual before. He is so much more. And im not innocent from these thoughts. But he's showed us early as first performance of Pentagon maker (Sorry) that , that is wrong. I can not imagine that performance without amazing intro of him playing piano + him & yanan's singing. I cant imagine Pentagon without him. And his song he wrote with hui this year is great :> I think...My favourite Ptg song from the year.

 
Yeo One


my bias ofc uwu. For those who dont know. Church Oppa = yeo one. its a name he gave himself in a profile back pre-debut. I dont know where to start. Ever since they first posted him on cube.tree I was interested. Im sure i more shitpost abt Kino (my other bias) but still even if I had to just say 1 bias. it'd still be Yeo one. Yeo one has 3 songs uplaoded on Cube's youtube. Let's go (ê°€ìž) & patpat (토닥토닥) with mvs. and recently the audio to another song, Hope. His songs and covers I feel dont get as much attention and views as the rest. albeit, none are popular within kpop realm. But his deserve more attention particularly. Hope was uploaded on the 20th & has <25k views. Please check it out its great

 

Yanan

I feel a bit bitter at Naughty Boy promotions because whilst Cube was stalling on announcing hyojong's departure. we were also missing Yanan. and they said its because of health. but its the second time he missed a promotion - he was injured for Critical beauty. But after months of hell, i think everything started getting better for ptg + uni when Yanan finally returned and was with them. honestly  Ptg did not look very happy during NB but you can tell how happy they are when they are with Yanan again. I look forward to ptg cb as OT9 a lot. I'd also say a lot of the same things for Yanan, Yeo one , & Shinwon. they are a lot more than just the visuals. I love them so much

Yuto

This is personal unpopular opinion i Think.. but by large margin I think he is pentagon best all around rapper. including past member. I'm not a fan of their predebut song, Young. but Yuto's part i can repeat & repeat & repeat. His rap is best part of Shine, best part of Like This. Yutoda is iconic & amazing. all his parts in songs is amazing..legendary. im not a huge fan of Pentagon rapline song either, but Yuto parts are highlights for me. and of all of Pentagon original solo(ish) selfmade songs, My favourite of them is definitely Yuto's Trust Me (ft rrest of rapline)

Kino

Kino has to be one of the most, all around talented and quality idols out there. He's a great dancer, even choreographs. even from predebut. just again, look at Sorry... something just wows me about that choreography. it really captures me. and he's continued to do that since they debut. not only can he do the choreo but he is just an amazing all around performer and is born to be on stage. he has a nice voice. he is now pentagon 3rd rapper i suppose. i dont expect him to be good like yuto/wooseok. but i hope he continues with like, cute rapping parts like in 'Just do it yo'. that is one of my fav parts of the song. i dont mean to put him on pedastal like he'll 'go off' we alr have yuto & wooseok for that x but I think he can pull it off cutely and less-serious rap. if that makes sense. not to mention he also makes amazing songs for the group, as bsides. makes his own songs that are on YT or soundcloud. makes songs for other artists.

The other day..I was watching this video on repeat for no real reason. it is just one of my fav magazine ho. but i just started crying because of how much i lub them. they are aamzing. not just jinho & kino. but they are just amazing. Maybe thats weird. but ive not been happy. in my life. but kinda at times particularly lately. and they just make me happy :>

 

Wooseok

When i try to do these threads. wooseok is really the hardest for me to really say something and for it to be really apt and good/appreciative enough to post it ? idk even though I said Yuto is my favorite of the rappers & always has been, performance-wise. I think Wooseok is still really good. He has good aura and theyre a duo. I dont even think I'd say he's a least favorite member bc (warning:cringe) i dont really have one. thats impossible to me. other than saying my bias is 2gu. impossible to rank and if i even could, theres constant rotation #3-9. Wooseok is just hard to explain or describe for me I guess. I'm sure I mentioned this in previous threads but. I was predebut ptg fan. but I fell off before their 1st cb. because I wasnt a fan of young (pre debut song) I adore the debut mini, sans Gorilla. And plus, I was getting very anti-cube that I missed their whole 1st cb. I was already back to stanning before their 2nd cb tho. in beginning there was members i didnt vibe 100% w, yes WS being one. But since.. I just adore them all. Thats why I 'restan' shortly before critical beauty. no turning back for me now.

 

and yup. this took me forever...so I think ill just leave it at that. I love pentagon. universe loves pentagon, (forgive me but) pentagon, u are our universe
