During a recent interview with ELLE KOREA, Mingyu was shown the video clips as seen above of him declaring his fanship for Soobin. He was asked if he truly became a fan of Soobin’s that day.

Mingyu explained how Soobin really surprised him. He thought the TXT member was shy, but he turned out to be quite different!

I think I was very shocked that day. He was so charming. I thought he was obviously shy, but he was enjoying the moment so brightly.

Mingyu was so impressed with Soobin’s knowledge of all the songs and thought his genuine enjoyment was endearing. So, he truly became a fan.

‘I know this song!’ Seeing him happily enjoying it with this expression, he was cute. It’s amazing that he knew all the songs. I became a fan that day.
