apparently jeonghan and joshua had a serious heart-to-heart while preparing for the unit and they both ended up feeling hurt :(
๐ผ๐ป: we had a serious conversation once... when you came to my house and we talked about things like, โthis hurt my feelingsโ & โthat hurt my feelingsโ...
๐ผ๐ป: the point that had hurt shuaโs feelings was, โwe said we were going to do the album together, so why arenโt you working on anything, and why do you keep saying, โjust do whatever youโre comfortable with~โ why donโt you seem interested?โ i guess that was what he kept feeling hurt about.
๐ฆ: i was kind of like, โshould we go in this direction with the songs...? i think this kind of song would suit us...โ i would even work on things and send them over and stuff.
๐ผ๐ป: but i was thinking, โalbum production should be done by professionalsโ like, โmy ideas can be included! we can have discussions and things like that! but iโm less knowledgeable about music than they are, so wouldnโt what they bring be more professional?โ so I was like, โthatโs why iโm leaving the album to the professionals. but shua, i also like having your thoughts included! iโm totally fine with having a song you worked on included, i really like it.โ But as time went by, shua ended up feeling like I was too uninterested.
๐ฆ: right. so for me, if our ideas or things like that were included, it felt a little more sincere...! at the time, it seemed like there wasnโt any sincerity to me. but later, after hearing the explanation, i realized that wasnโt the case...
๐ผ๐ป: i wasnโt worried about the album! i was worried about the performances, constantly. the album will inevitably get made because we record it, go on music shows, and do all that. but for the performances, we have to give our fans a sense of satisfaction while performing on stage, you know? and i thought each unit had something different they could show on stage. coups and mingyu are good at having fun, hoshi and woozi are really good on stage, the8 and vernon have a completely different style itself... so i kept worrying about the performances more than the album! thatโs why i was communicating with the company about things like, โhow about doing this at this point?โ, โjow about doing something cute here?โ, โhow about going with the concept like this?โ and...
๐ฆ: he didnโt even tell me about this! about communicating about these things! so...
๐ฉ๐ป: in a way, the two of you were just in different categories...
Shua got plans to go to america to pursue acting, doing solo, and many more but he thought doing a unit activities with jeonghan would be fun so he pushed that all back and pledis propose many plans for jeonghan after military but he chose to do unit with shua
yoonhong genre be like:
miscommunication, hurt/comfort, mutual pining, slowburn, joshua is bad at feelings, jeonghan is bad at feelings, reconciliation, angst and fluff, angst with a happy ending
halimaw ka magmahal joshua hong!!! anong kaya mo ipagpaliban pangarap mo para kay jeonghan???!? you already took the first steps of reaching that dream pero bumalik lang si jeonghan parang nawala na lahat ๐
