Bang Chan is more than the hugs boy: a thread.

Let’s start off with the fact he started training when he was around 13 y.o. He had to leave his home in Australia and had to wait around 7 years to finally debut. He saw how his friends started debuting or just leaving and he was left alone. He has mentioned he felt lonely +

during that time. In 2017, JYP started a survival show and let Bangchan handpick every single member. Chan earned JYP’s trust because of his hard work.

He’s part of 3RACHA, which is the current producing, composing and writing team of SKZ. They also had a rough journey trying to get their music recognition. They’re open about social issues and mental health. https://twitter.com/chilhd/status/950022504633942016

Ever since he debuted he has been hated on without any reason. He has demonstrated he’s not only a great artist but also an awesome human being. He’s full of great treats, and talent.

He has one of the prettiest minds i’ve seen. He’s accepting

He always says nice things to us, reminding us we’re not alone

tw, cw / self harm

This is one of my personal favorites. I go to him whenever I feel like this

The fact that he goes live with “Chan’s Room” every week, no matter what, no matter how tight his schedule was o how tired he might be. He’s always there.

It’s also important to mention how even non-stays started joining Chan’s Room. His latest Chan’s Room hit more than 2M viewers. People have mentioned how even though they don’t know him or stan him had felt comfort just by watching or listening to him.

There are just so many comforting and nice things Chan has said but if I keep on adding them this wouldn’t end. So check this out! https://twitter.com/bangchannies/status/1331328029960835072

He also encourages us to be nice to everyone and remain respectful!

He’s literally the best leader, there’s no doubt about it. He loves Stray Kids as if they were his blood family. As if he had known them for his entire life

Also, his hard work. Chan usually stays until around 5 AM to work on music. Jisung once cried when he knew Chan was working alone on his birthday.

There MANY histories on Bang Chan’s hard work. Again, I can’t fit them all on this thread because it won’t end.

Please, take a little while to get to know him! I promise you won’t regret it.

Also feel free to add anything Chan has done that inspired you or made you feel comforted. Bangchan best boy, Bangchan best leader.
