Hyunsuk and Jihoon may not be leaders anymore but they WERE/ARE/WILL BE the PARENTS OF TREASURE. This is a mixed and bittersweet change. On one hand, you can be sad to miss their leader greetings,comments and segments and on the other hand, you can be happy that no one can blame them no more for being incompetent(?- the audacity to call them) which they NEVER WERE.
You are allowed to feel upset, your feelings are valid.
What Jihoon and Hyunsuk contributed for the group is HISTORY, undeniable and True. Their efforts, sacrifices, time, will never be unspoken. And maybe now, they can put themselves first.
They are the pillars of the group. Even after losing a member in their pre-debut, losing 2 members in their rookie days, uneven comebacks and missed opportunities, they were strong and held the group together which says A LOT!
One thing to note is that being a leader is not their position but instinct and no one can change that.
And for us, we may get back sukhoon in their 2020-2022 dating era or maybe it's 'like post-marriage-the kids grew up let's go out more' era. More icecream dates!!! Yess!!!
May 2025 and the years to come be good to hoonsuk ❤️ and treasure
