Chanmin's Relationship Dynamic

Orrrrr, my insanely deep dive and in-depth analysis into their relationship after watching all their 2kids episodes!! 🫣

Hi Lovelies, first, I hope you all have been doing well. I decided to make this after watching the newest Chamin 2Kids episode—you know, the one where Seungmin is bawling his eyes out over Chan. Yeah, I'm so not Gwenchana.

But since this book is dedicated to Chan and Seungmin and their relationship, I figured it wouldn't hurt to show you guys my opinions on this duo. Maybe you'll agree with my assessment, or you'll think im stretching; regardless, I hope you enjoy and read till the end. (No, seriously, please read until the end bc this is my second draft after deleting five hours' worth of work!!! I lost like 2.5k words, broooo...I cried my damn self 😀) I always want to hear your opinions, too, so leave me a comment on what you think. <3

Small disclaimer!! Although I choose to include some of the past 2Kids room moments in this analysis as evidence, most of my opinion is formed based on the two's interactions since 2022!! I wasn't a Stay before then, so I can't really speak on how they might've been in the past. I'll give my theories, but it's mainly speculation. Okay, this is all really speculation, but I'll really be just pulling shit out of my ass when I comment before 2022, lol.

Okayyyyyy!!! Let's start off in 2019!!

Not much actually happened in this video, and it was on the shorter side, being less than 10 minutes long. But I can still manage to get just a few things from the minuscule interactions.

I believe (again, all just my speculation) that Chan and Seungmin's relationship didnt start out as strong as it is now (2025). In fact, I think they barely had much of any bond back in the earlier days of Skz. Sure, they were on the same team, and they lived together. They had to be close in some way...it was probably impossible not to be.

When I say "strong," I mean a bond where the care for each other is so deep that it's almost reflective. The idea of knowing the other so well that you can sense how they are feeling without them saying a word. So much so that you wish they'd be by your side forever because you simply can't imagine life without them. A connection that is so strong that they're not only your best friend but also someone who understands you better than you even understand yourself. [hehe spoiler alert that's how they are now!!]

For example, Minsung!!! We all know Minho and Jisung have been solid since literally day fucking one—you can't argue with that. However, I don't think it worked the same for Chamin. I'm not saying in any way whatsoever that they didnt care about each other. I'm sure they did. They just weren't that close to that mutual safe space for each other. It took them a while to establish that.

"...out of all the members,[your first impression] is the most vivid." -Chan 2019.

This is a quote from Chan talking about his first impression of Seungmin. To summarize, Chan was eating when someone (Seungmin) approached his table randomly and greeted him before leaving. And apparently, he was the only one person out of the many auditioning to do so.
