Hunchul and Y/N.

Y/N and Hunchul.

That’s the way it had been since high school when the two of you had just met. At first the two of you didn’t click. You were seatmates but rarely even looked at each other. It all started the day that you were sent to his home by the teacher to deliver him the homework because he had missed school for a week. You then found out that he had become a trainee rapper at an entertainment company called Big Hit and that’s why he had to miss school quite a lot.

After that, you would visit him more often, bringing him his homework and helping him stay caught up with the lectures.

When high school was done, you continued your secondary education by going to a university and by then, Hunchul was out of Big Hit but still in the road of pursuing his dream of music. Unlike what other people expected, the two of you still stayed close, supporting and cheering for each other on your ways to success. You were there when he first decided to audition for the rap competition, Show Me The Money. Always attending the live shows to cheer for him. Through happiness and sadness, you were the first arms he ran into after the SMTM final results were out.

It was Hunchul and Y/N against the world.

Rest In Peace Jung Hunchul

Today marked the final day of the first week since this whole ordeal began. Truthfully, it feels like we somehow transported to the Dramarama video because time seemed to stop, but alas, here we are.

For the recap, I’m not going to put specific dates, but for today’s update, I will title it as such. You’ll see - this should be a pretty easy format to follow (tiki-taka),

For the sake of everyone’s timelines, the recap and update begin after this read more.

I love this. Because false hopes are a fantasy with no substance whatsoever and what we’re doing is the opposite, we’re making waves here. If not to bring Wonho back but change things. Make it better for other idols, show companies that an official statement isn’t enough to deter fans, that our devotion isnt so fickle as to go away when some snake wants attention and spreads her venomous lies.

I know you probably are still processing it and keep fighting as well as I do. But these here made me laugh and I hope it will make you too.

Please remember to eat lots, drink and stay hydrated (especially if you cry lots like I did/do :')), get enough sleep, watch a movie, read a book, distract yourself, get some nice coffee (if you like it), go out with a friend, catch some fresh air, just take care of yourselves, we need you all, we are one family, much love ❤

This update has been circling around the web!

I think it’s a nice way to end tonight and thought that it might soothe your hearts whilst strengthening your motivation to continue.

Also:

The Bunnies for Wonho project has launched its Twitter here.

We’re also still at #2 trending with:

#HopeForWonho

#WeBelieveInMonstaX

-

I will give updates later throughout the day in between classes! I love you all and hope you have a good night/day!

Monbebe, he knows and he can see it. For those of you who have had your fears and doubts that what we’re doing isn’t going to change anything or matter in the end it’s okay. We’re scared too, sad too, angry too.

Bear in mind I’m typing this with tears streaming down my face, so excuse any possible grammar errors.

A lot of people are asking if Starship’s official letter - here:

...is referencing Wonho and I believe it is.

I believe the first paragraph is talking about Wonho in the sense of paraphrasing. If parties are involved in legal actions, they cannot, and are advise to stay quiet, about the situation until a court can resolve it.

Now you might be thinking, “Okay and??? That doesn’t mean it’s related to him,” but listen to me:

Look at how they worded Shownu’s section. They said, “In addition” meaning they’re referencing two different situations.

Do you all see this? Look at the last lines - they’re asking us to continue, so you know what we’re going to do?

WE’RE GOING TO TAKE A 5 MINUTE WATER BREAK AND KICK IT INTO OVERDRIVE, MONBEBES.

The recent legal issue involving Shownu has been taken care of by Starship Ent. I, and many others, continue to ask that no one search about what’s happened. From my understanding, if you are confused, then you may ask about it privately and the situation may be briefly explained to you, but if this is done, please do not post about it publicly.

Our tags have been trending for four (4) days now.

The official Monsta X Twitter has been posting quite a few selfies of the boys and also posted for Min’s birthday.

Here’s a translation of Minhyuk’s post:

Follow has reached over 10 million views on YouTube.

“Tiki-taka” is becoming the new Monbebe battle cry.

The petition to keep Wonho in MX has made a new goal of 500,00 and is currently at 418, 151. Please sign it here.

Monbebes, we’re looking for new campaigns to add to the mix of the already current ones. If you have any ideas, please shoot me a message and we can get it organized!

Tumblr user, @stay-dont-strayy, is organizing an International MBB campaign. Read about it here.

Due to the constant mix of information regarding whether to proceed in the search cleanse or not, I believe what we’re supposed to do is discontinue it as it causes suspicions to arise. Here’s a screenshot of a recent post regarding the situation:

Their last point goes for every social platform. A rise of shady/fake mbb accounts have come forth, so before you talk about anything, ensure their validity. In my opinion, however, it’s best to just socially forget about the current event and continue with the campaigns.

Also, do not share the tweet they’re referring to - not even privately. Just report it to the social platform and Starship and go about your day.

Here are the new hashtags:

#AllInForMonstaX

#MonstaXWeAreHere

Also, #MonbebeSupportMonstaX is still trending, but please use the first two instead.

Reminders:

Do not utilize red ink or paper when doing handwriting campaigns, or even virtual ones. In other words: Do not use red colored fonts nor red backgrounds.

If you’d like to participate in any of the campaigns, but don’t have access to twitter, my inbox and submissions are open. I will post them for you and link back to you with full credits. You can submit as many projects as you want; there is no limit.

Do not engage with the snake duo, trolls, or illegal content.

The boys are not giving up, so if you feel helpless or discouraged, keep in mind that they cannot publicly come out and speak on the situations that have been occurring. I can guarantee you that they’re seeing what we’re doing and are proud of us, so let’s continue, okay? We’re a family and a family’s bond is stronger than scandals.

From how it sounded to me, Monbebe yelled “Lee Hoseok” at the very end of Follow.

For those of you on twitter, please trend these hashtags until further notice.

THIS SHIT WORKS OKAY, I AM DEAD SERIOUS.

The last time I saw this on my dash, I didn’t think it would happen, so jokingly I wished I could go to a fun. concert.

AND GUESS WHAT, I WENT TO A FUCKING FUN. CONCERT.

I SAW THIS ON MY DASH THE OTHER DAY AND THOUGHT “ITS WORTH A TRY” SO I WISHED I COULD GET A 3DS

LITERALLY LIKE 4 DAYS LATER MY DAD SENT ME A PICTURE OF THE 3DS XL HE BOUGHT FOR ME WHILE I WAS AT SCHOOL

GUYS.

HE FUCKING CALLED ME 20 MINUTES LATER

20 FUCKNG. MINUTES. LATER.

The silent protest in SK is currently occurring as I write this.

A whale was bought/adopted for Minhyuk’s birthday. The whale’s name is Monbebe.

The fundraiser for the Times Square ad has reached over $22k USD. The goal was $10k USD.

Tags are still trending.

Elhae has reached out to Changkyun and We Bare Bears creator, Daniel Chong, tweeted his support of Wonho.

Staff is still showing their support for MX and Wonho.

300 fans were allowed into the Inkigayo recording which is unusual considering the 200 capacity norm.

Monbebes attending the recording will be using the OT7 chant during the performance.

All sorts of fundraisers are being held including: Raising money for SK ads, a Filipino MOA Globe ad, German ads, YouTube ads, etc.

I believe it’s Paris Monbebes who are looking for musically talented MBB’s to compose and sing a song.

At the silent protest, more notes are being collected from Monbebes.

Tower Records, an international music franchise store, has showed their support through signs at their Japanese location.

Fan artists are being asked to come together to draw the group as OT7 and post their creations to show their love and support for MX.

Video messages are also encouraged.

Fan letters, handwritten and/or electronically published, are encouraged.

Writing of the current hashtags on a piece of paper or post-it note are encouraged. Sidenote: If you’d like to participate but don’t have a Twitter, my submissions and inbox are open, so please feel free to send me any type of project you’d like to be posted and I’ll do so with crediting you.

If you participate in any handwriting events, please DO NOT USE RED INK AND STRAY AWAY FROM RED STATIONERY/PAPER. Koreans consider it taboo since red ink was used to write deceased people’s names on family registers in the past. If this is done to a living person, it’s viewed as a wish for their death, so please avoid using red ink (and paper).

——————————————————————————

SPECULATIONS from November 2’s Music Bank performance are as follows:

MX left a spot open on stage to signify Wonho’s presence (where he would stand) during their Follow and Find You performances.

Jooheon’s slip up on the lyrics could be to protest what’s occurring.

MX nearly cried during their Find You performance.

It’s possible that in future performances, Kihyun’s glare will break the 4th wall and shoot fire straight through screens - and honestly, mbb are okay with that.

——————————————————————————

Another speculation is that Starship is staying quiet for legal reasons in defense for Wonho until they’re able to speak out.

New tags are being utilized and the current ones are:

#StarshipFightForWonho

#돌아보면_항상_여기_있을게

#ShineForMonstaX

#사랑한다_몬스타엑스

International Monbebes would like to hold their own physical silent protests. Details are being worked out.

This isn’t an update, but DO NOT INTERACT WITH HAN SEO HEE OR JUNG DA EUN ON ANY PLATFORM. Doing so will only make the situation worse for MX and those two are not worth the time. Instead, channel your emotions towards the trends and online protests.

I’ll make a new post when new info is revealed. In the meantime, please part-take in the protests and events as well as wish Minhyuk a happy birthday, please.

Also, if you see this, you’re obligated to take at least a 5 minute break and drink some water too. ❤️

KEEP FIGHTING. FELLOW MONBEBE I AM RIGHT HERE WITH YOU

wearing pajamas and watching movies is your most common date night

in the winter when you’re sick wonho would bring you hot soup and curl up with you under warm blankets and let you fall asleep on his shoulder

or rub your back if you’re throwing up

and when you’re all better he would take you out to see the street decorations- holding hot chocolate in one hand and yours in the other

when he’s away on tour your messages always make him smile

and the boys know the reason why he’s smiling at his phone is you

the moment he gets off the plane he’s on his way to see you- no exceptions

when you reunite the first thing you do is show each other your love for one another

most of the time it’s sex

after your session is over you lay naked in each other’s arms; staring into each other’s eyes

in the morning there would be a repeat of the night before

when the time comes to separate once more wonho would peck you on the lips and leave for work

sometimes you would stop by the practice room to give him and the guys some lunch

in which he insists for you to stay with him

when obstacles occurred in your relationship with wonho, he would make sure to work through them 

even when you cried and yelled at him to leave you alone

he would keep at a safe distance but wouldn’t leave you alone

in fear of something bad would happen to you

the fights would never last long because you couldn’t stand staying away from him more than necessary
