SEVENTEEN’s S.Coups And Dino Show Their Brotherhood In A Leader X Maknae Interview

They’re not the typical leader x maknae combo!

Every K-Pop group has a leader responsible for the group and a maknae responsible for the group’s energy. They are two well-loved positions of great importance… until you get to SEVENTEEN. While the positions are still important, they regard each member as equals in everything they do, as you’ll see below.

Sports Seoul recently released several interviews of the leaders and maknaes of a few K-Pop groups to ask how they felt in that position. Today, we’re taking a look at SEVENTEEN’s interview!

Let’s see what leader S.Coups has to say!

Although the interview yielded somewhat hilarious results, we can clearly see just how close all of the SEVENTEEN members are!
