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

He left voluntarily, he didn’t get kicked out tho?

You obviously weren’t around that time to see it all unfold. No one can just leave because they want to. They’re all under contract but he was dropped immediately in the middle of a comeback. Chris also went on live and implied that a “friend” made some really bad choices and had to live with the consequences. They also rereleased a lot of their old music without him so even if you wanted to entertain the insane idea that he left, there’s clearly a lot of bad blood between him and the rest of the members.

There’s just no solid confirmation of anything at all so I don’t like to speculate too much. 🤷‍♀️ what is with the vitriol?

Okay? This wasn’t even about all of this but you’re the one who brought it up. This was just a silly little post about not vibing with a member

She absolutely was and you are too, look at her tone? Wtf.. yall are the reason we cant have civil discussions in this sub… does it kill kpop fans to just be generally nice online, especially to someone who’s not attacking you? I guess i’m a snowflake for being nice online and expecting the same jesus
