#c.a.p

On May 11 KST, shortly after the official announcement of his departure from TEEN TOP, C.A.P appeared on a YouTube live broadcast via his own channel Baet Boy to reveal his honest thoughts.

First, he said, "I would like to start off by apologize to those who deserve an apology. A few days ago, I brought up the possibility of me leaving, and there was this sense that I had already mostly made up my mind. When I looked back, I felt sorry to fans who were tuning in for saying it so suddenly. I'm not sorry to everyone, no, but to the fans who really looked forward to TEEN TOP, I'm sorry."

C.A.P then added on, "I had a feeling that it would turn out this way. I'd never openly talked about it before with anyone, but I had always wanted to pull out of the group at some point. I had actually made up my mind when I said that I would discuss the matter with the members and the agency, and saying that was in some ways lying to myself. In reality, I had intended on leaving from the beginning."

He also clarified, "I don't personally believe that my actions were wrong. My apology is for lying to the fans. It seemed like our contracts would be extended soon with all that was happening, and that was pushing me into a corner which made me act in an extreme way."

C.A.P confessed that it had been difficult to bring up the matter in conversation, although he had wished to discuss his departure from the group for a while. "I actually wanted to talk to my dongsaengs about it, and so I would call them but they were all busy, and so there was no time or space to bring it up. Meanwhile, my guilt was piling up. I didn't want to hurt other people because of this guilty conscience. I did try to bring the topic up with the company, and there were all kinds of back and forth discussions surrounding the renewal of our contracts. So it got very complicated, and I got to thinking that if I want to cut my ties as surely as possible, I should cause some kind of trouble, and then apologize and leave. I know that if I cause trouble, it will damage the image of my team. But if I leave the team, then it also eliminates the cause of the trouble, and so to me, I was okay with that. I know that in some ways, I acted selfishly without consulting anyone."

If you're familiar at all with the custom Smogon metagame C.A.P (Create A Pokemon), there was actually, miraculously, a fighting game made for them which you can find the website for right here, and by the same people making Close Combat no less (or at least they're sharing a twitter account)

Technically no wiki for it currently aside from the website's overview of the characters and the training dummy is fucking infuriating sometimes, but it's pretty fun and you should check it out

(So far I’ve only made videos of Victoria, Johnny, Shaundi, and Pierce. I’ll get to the other characters when the inspiration hits)

Kat Graham as my Boss Victoria “Tori” Queens (some people I know say I look a bit like Kat, so I went with her as Victoria)

C.A.P/Bang Minsoo as Johnny Gat (he doesn’t have a lot of material to work with, so I’ll most likely change fancasts after I make a Johnny x Aisha video)

Jade Tailor as Shaundi

Stephan James as Pierce Washington

Jane Levy as Kenzie Kensington

Shay Mitchell as Viola DeWynter and Olivia Munn as Kiki DeWynter

David Banner as Benjamin King (ever since I was little, I always thought SR1 Ben looked a lot like David Banner)

Jon Ecker as Troy Bradshaw (credit to @eulerami-art for this god tier idea)

Keke Palmer as Aisha

Meng Jia as Lin and Jude Demorest as Tanya Winters (I had to combine their pictures cuz of the 10 picture limit lol)

Characters I want to fancast, but can’t think of who to fancast them as:

•Carlos Mendoza (I was thinking of Diego Tinoco, but I’m not sure. I kinda want someone that looks a bit younger, but if I can’t think of anyone else, I’ll stick with him)

•Matt Miller

•Asha Odekar (I thought of too many actresses to choose from omg help)

•Oleg

•Julius Little

•Dex (there are two actors I always thought he looked like when I was little, Orlando Jones and Miguel A. Núñez Jr., but they’ve aged WAAAY out of the role, so idk what to do)
