i wish i understood this phenomenon to have an answer for you love but im just as flabbergasted and confused as you are. it just doesn't make sense to me how a lot of the fandom treats hyunchan as a duo as sexual objects and thats it, refusing to see the incredible emotional bond and connection they have with each other. i think preferred ships have something to do with that though, liking another ship apart from hyunchan is fine and dandy but reducing hyunchans existing real dynamic to sexual tension or whatever is so weird and unnecessary. and people tend to do that so their ships feel more "real"...

also what the fuck kinda comment is that 😭😭 LEAST sexual chemistry??? why is it either 0 or a 100 with these people. and still they refuse to see how romantic hyunchan is 💀 the fact escape is clearly a gay tragedy love story and they both were fully aware of it and leaning into it and saying how moved they were by the mv is proof enough of their emotional connect to each other... wanting to escape with your lover away from the world because you only have each other???????
and that's not even mentioning red lights. people only see red lights as a sex song while it has such a vulnerable theme of pure obsession to the point of ruin. and the fact that they BOTH relate to it only goes to show how deeply obsessive they both are and that's not something everyone can relate to or understand, therefore they Get Each Other™ in ways very few others can.

ALSO it pisses me off when people want or ask for an ot8 version of hyunchan songs or another member/duo instead. like hello thats their artistry??? its THEIRS. not our problem the duo you want has a different flavour and artistry, you cannot be stealing hyunchan's art and paste another pair onto it as if its an empty template 😭😭

sorry i rambled these things always annoy me sijdksnfkd but anyway being in our hyunchan bubble and ignoring these comments is the best course of action, the people who get it get it the people who don't dont 🙏
