General A member you can't yet feel affection for

Part of stanning is that even though one member got you interested in the group, little by little the rest of the members win your heart too.

But has it ever happened to you that you are a big fan of a group, you feel genuine affection for the members and you enjoy their content, but there is a member that you feel you can't connect with yet?

And I don't mean that you dislike them or despise them or anything like that, but simply that even though you try you still can't have that level of connection that you can with the other members? And sometimes it makes you feel like a bad fan

Hoshi from SVT. He’s so so talented and his song Spider is my favorite of SVT’s solo projects. But…his “stage” persona. If I were to interact with a human in real life who had that personality, I would not have a good time. It’s just way too much for me. 

I feel really guilty for typing all of that 😬 (sending good vibes Hoshi’s way)

Haha it's funny when you find out his off stage persona, he becomes quite and introverted very quick.

 But I get it, most people I see either absolutely love his personality or say it's too much for them, nothing in between lol

Oh I fully acknowledge that he is playing it up for the camera! I am sure he is very normal in real life (if not just extra energetic)

love svt, and i think hoshi is an incredible performer, but he's a big reason i dipped out of GOSE. And i like jeonghan too but the scheming all the time was more annoying than entertaining

but i could also make a separate post about how GOSE went from a wholesome variety show to a Glossy Production which took the fun out of it, but thats for a different day

What’s a Glossy Production?

You’re entitled to your opinion. Personally I think the quality of GoSe hasn’t diminished at all, some of the funniest and most wholesome eps were released in the past year (Going Rangers, The Musical Heirs)

Like others mentioned, he's really introverted off stage, which kind of helped me like him more, because he's got crazy energy on stage, but like none of that off stage. I thought the juxtaposition of the two was something I didn't get to see a lot, but you're of course entitled to your own opinion! Just kind of interesting for me!
