— 2byeol and dahliaz edition

2byeol ; conversations that dip between moments of depth before dissolving into “arguments” that have the both of us grinning while we type, thumbs racing to get our message in before the other, bcs our love runs as deep as our competition

𓈒⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇬⠀˖ ⠀𓂃⠀𓈒

dahliaz ; conversations that run off in various tangents, different replies to different messages, and before we realise it, our chatroom looks like a tangled web, and we wonder how we got to where we are (which sparks yet another topic)

ITS LITERALLY FATE

i think it’s hilarious that i have a crush on jungwon and scripted him as my s/o

whilst also feeling a familial love for chris (bang chan) and scripted him as my big cousin

.. only to find out that jungwon seems to be afraid of chris

HERE IT IS ADKHASJD IM SO EMBARRASSED SORRY :(

p.s ahhh fellow jungwon stan xx he's so comfort personified i get it

🧃 apple juice . . . how does your s/o make your inner child feel safe? what qualities about them make you feel free to be goofy, silly, frustrated, or vulnerable?

with jungwon it’s really easy to let out my inner child, i think i have it easier bcs i’m the youngest in my group and used to be babied a little bit so me letting my inner child shine isn’t met with a lot of raised eyebrows, but the thing about jungwon is that it’s so natural i don’t realise it’s happening. he’s very encouraging as an individual, so when i find myself interested in something he’s one of the first people to urge me to explore more and delve into it. also one thing about me is there are certain ways i do things or certain aspects of my life that i just need to keep doing like, i need them to be constant. for example smth as silly as where i sit on the couch, he notices that i’m the most comfortable in one seat and (obvs within reason) he tries to let me sit there every time. little things like that make me feel very looked after. another thing is when he tries to learn more about my culture, feeling the culture shock after moving to south korea was something that effected me as a kid (reminiscent of the culture shock i’d feel being desi in a moderately white country in my cr) and jungwon always asks questions out of genuine curiosity to learn more, so healing for me honestly

🍵 strawberry matcha . . . what scents remind you of your relationship? maybe this is a perfume or cologne your lover wears, a candle scent that reminds you of the soothing energy you feel around them, or an essential oil you spritz on your pillow before shifting.

jungwon usually smells like fresh linen but that’s just how his clothes smell, he doesn’t really have a distinct scent, mostly cuz he’s sensitive to strong smells. he’d mostly smell like face wash and linen laundry detergent. one smell that reminds me of him is dahlia’s, i love the smell of dahlia’s and i scripted that during the short stint where jungwon subs in for sunghoon while sunghoon and i are mc’s, clarity (my group) wins music bank and jungwon hands me the bouquet and it has dahlia flowers in it. it’s a really cute moment that went viral because i immediately went to smell the flowers and i thought the smell was lovely, very mild but floral, not too strong, so i asked jungwon to smell them and we were like smiling at each other (i later on pressed the flowers and made a collage to stick on my wall .. some fans may have put the dots together but we won’t talk abt that)

🥂 morning mimosa . . . how do you celebrate your achievements together? what do you do to encourage each other to fulfill your dreams + goals: is it through words of affirmation? or perhaps having dinner ready for when you get home after a long day of work?

this is the perfect question to ask for a kpop dr omg ok esp bcs enhypen just won five awards at the latest award show INCLUDING A DAESANG (fyi this is a big deal in case you’re not familiar w kpop awards) yeahh celebrating wins with each other is FUN most of time we try and sneak into the other groups green room and just steal a few minutes to give each other a hug and congratulate each other properly. bcs the only way we could congratulate each other when we get called for an award is a quick high five or even just a smile+nod combo bcs professionalism. but yeh if we can’t snag a couple moments together at the award show we usually try to hang out in the next few days, our go to achievement-reward is buying each other ice cream !!! one thing we love talking about is how much we want to achieve, i’m someone who has a whole list written out (mostly bcs . i scripted my achievements so obvs i’ve got the list) but jungwon has very specific goals, he wants to reach the next height and then the next and the next, he views it like a mountain trek, but he doesn’t want to reach the summit yet. our biggest method of encouraging each other is giving each other recognition, when i see that he’s wallowing in the stress i show him everything he’s accomplished and remind him of what he’s capable of, and he does the same for me, we get caught in spirals so it’s great to have someone to ground you and empower you, bcs sometimes our past achievements feel small when compared to what we’re trying to reach, but it’s always a matter of perspective. and when we have those days of unfortunately not reaching said goal, it’s more comforting to me that jungwon doesn’t even say anything, he just gives me hugs and runs his hands through my hair and lets me process. bcs everyone needs to have their own reaction

flower ask game for your kpop dr xo

hi darling anon !! thank you for the ask gorgeous ≈

oh and thank you for telling me which dr you want answered !! it truly helps also stops me from feeling anxious that i’m not answering for the dr that the ask intended

🌼 : BEAUTIFUL BLOSSOM . . . what do you find most beautiful about your significant other(s)? what about that aspect of them is so beautiful to you? and in turn what do they believe the most beautiful thing about you is? why do they think that way?

for my KPOP DR — if you guys didn’t know my s/o is Yang Jungwon from enhypen ≈ anyway, the most beautiful aspect of jungwon would have to be his words , for whatever reason he doesn’t think he’s super well spoken, but i beg to differ. he has this way of calming you down when you’re spiralling, or lifting you up when you feel like there’s a weight pushing on top of you, he carries his burdens and never expects anyone else to help but he doesn’t let anyone else suffer alone and he always makes sure to communicate his availability and how he wants to be present for you and how he wants to be able to provide some form of comfort or advice, whatever’s necessary — and this is isn’t even unique to our relationship like, he’s just like this?? and it’s such a beautiful part of his personality and people sometimes take it for granted which is upsetting, but that doesn’t stop him from still being there, he’s always right there

now, funnily enough, as someone who’s very Very talkative to the point where the fandom has memes about it, in jungwon’s opinion, the most beautiful aspect about me is how good of a listener i am. again, another trait that people around me take for granted but it’s true . i actually adore listening to people, and learning from people, or being the one that people turn to when they want to share something, anything, not just a hardship or drama but even the smallest most trivial part of your day, the fact that you chose to share it with me means a lot. i’ve had dreams about this dr where, in my interactions with jungwon, he’s lost his train of thought and he kinda trails off while talking to me bcs he gets distracted by how attentive i am and the way my eyes go wide and i keep nodding every few seconds while listening to him — TRUE STORY i genuinely dreamt this and was like “yep . this happens” so.. yehh (〃ω〃)

hi lovely anon !! thank you for the ask darling xx

you’re a pretty flower yourself ≈

idk what dr you wanted but if it’s open ended and you don’t mind whichever then i’m glad bcs i’ll be answering for my KPOP DR (where im dating jungwon) bcs it’s on my mind ohmygod aksjdjs

🪷 : LOVELY LOTUS . . . do you and your significant other(s) do any "cheesy" stuff? like having matching pajamas, matching halloween costumes, and picnic dates? or building the flower legos, cooking together, baking together?

honestly the cheesy stuff is mostly how we get that adrenaline rush of teasing our relationship to our fans without having to explicitly confirm it. trust, my realities fandoms aren’t horrible and wouldn’t suddenly switch up to burning you at the stake bcs you feel a romantic attraction to their bias .. like i’d ever put myself in that situation . no. but, there is still a little stigma around dating while you’re an idol, not necessarily because of fans but bcs of your peer relationships — if you break up .. it would make things awkward. so idols keep their relationships a secret. anyway, not the point. CUTE CHEESY THINGS WE DO — we share jewellery mostly. i’m not a silver girly, gold all the way and the entire fandom knows this, so whenever i wear silver on stage, it’s obvs that it was handed to me by my stylist and i just didn’t bother saying anything (bcs ya know, on stage there’s a cohesion that the group must follow, individual aesthetics be damned). but even off stage?? if i’m wearing a silver necklace or a ring that i keep playing with, that’s when it’s jungwon’s.

we also match colours a lot in our outfits, so if a lot of groups are travelling to an event or award show in a different country and we’re all gonna have airport appearances, jungwon and i coordinate colours a little. idk we find it fun aksjdjfjskd so if he wears a dark blue jumper (ya know the one? with the fuzzy material and the white writing? yeh that one that i’ve fallen asleep in more times than i can count) i’d wear a dark blue top or dark blue sweat pants, idk, something to match shades but not the exact. same. clothing item, ya know?

finally, we watch things together, we like split screen or voice/video call on discord and screen share to watch at the same time and we like talk to each other while we binge. it’s easy bcs we don’t have to travel to each others dorms and encroach on our other members and their space, but we still get to hang out. and brooo the way jungwon and i end up rambling about god knows what, jumping from topic to topic, shooting off on multiple tangents and then realising the episode we were watching has finished, the next one has started, and we haven’t been paying attention for the last half hour. but we never mind bcs it’s still time spent together?

🌷 : TIMELESS TULIP . . . what was your relationship with your significant other(s) like before you started dating? were you friends? enemies? academic rivals? did they know you liked them? did you know they liked you?

friends to lovers !! and coming from an enemies (to friends) to lovers truther — this works best in most cases. e2l is all fun to witness on screen or via the pages of a novel, but irl? f2l is the way to go imo (that being said .. i have a Lot of e2l tropes in my drs still so .. take my trope opinion with nuance pls) anyway

i’m gonna be rehashing this in some other post abt my kpop dr but jungwon and i met at the start of 2021 when seven of the 04’ liners in kpop were called to come and partake in a variety show !! a lot of idols were called but only seven of us were allowed by our companies to participate. the show was called 24시간 친구 (24 Hour Friend) where idols of the same age are called to spend a day with the variety show, we’re taken to a few locations, we play games, we use teamwork and we all get a chance to interact and we even have a sleepover in the end (obvs they separated the girls and the guys esp bcs it’s usually a show for young idols — teens and young adults — bcs young idols tend to not have many friends and this show promotes friendships within the industry)

after meeting there, jungwon and i (along with the others) remained close, like we became a friend group. other 04’ idols would join us and hangout but the seven of us were tight.

honestly, i can’t remember exactly how i fell for jungwon, it just kind of happened. he was one of my close friends and then, suddenly, he was one of the most important people in my life. i think it was because of how close clarity became with enhypen (our groups have a close friendship too) regardless of clarity being well known social butterflies within the industry, there’s something special about our friendship with en- and i can’t really explain it

i don’t think jungwon knew about my feelings for him, to be fair, i kinda hesitated to treat him differently to my other guy friends so i didn’t exactly make it clear

but i sort of figured out his feelings after my solo schedules became busy — constant mc-ing for award shows, collabing with other male idols for drama ost’s, stuff like that — and.. yeh jungwon kinda pulled away which made things a bit prickly between us , until i finally confronted it and found out that my suspicions were correct

there’s so much more that goes into this, like, moments that we share prior to dating, and our interactions while dating in secret, etc, so i will be posting about it . eventually
