Concerning X1

concerning x1

okay, so here’s what I think:

the top 11, who will debut as x1: personally, I was rooting for most of them to make it. the ones that didn’t make it, I was genuinely shocked about, considering a) they were hyped up from the start and b) they showed nothing but the good side of themselves throughout the show. 

on the brighter side: (I’m only comparing this to season 2 because that was the only other season I watched rip) if you look at the people who made it to the final ep, some even before that, you’ll notice that most of them did end up debuting, either in a new group or re-debuted/made a comeback with their old groups. so, I’m looking forward to seeing what comes out of that (and maybe, hwanggeum chemi will work out too). 

and lastly, to my absolute favorite that didn’t make it: lee jinhyuk, I always have supported you, still am supporting you and always will support you. I hope to see you performing on stage very soon. see you soon, love.

in my case, my fave didn’t make it (i was rooting for most of them but the one I rooted for the most didn’t make it and i’m so sad because he showed nothing but the best side of himself throughout this entire show). X1,,, i need to give it some time. but I sincerely hope that victon, myteen and up10tion start making music again.

My thoughts on the finale lineup for Produce X 101

Tbh I'm not satisfied. Only one of my fav passed. I'm happy for the ones who passed but I really didn't expect that, I'm quite disappointed. I will still follow them but I will definitely not stan. I'm really happy that Yohan is center and that Dongpyo is in the group. For Wooseok and Seungwoo I'm more sad that they're going to be away from their groups (UP10TION and VICTON) for 5 years. And for Minkyu, I think he deserved better. He got bashed for being in the top when he didn't ask for it and tried his best to not disappoint anyone and he got out, I really hoped for him to be the X.

And finally my other fav, Yuvin who deserved wayyyyyyyyyy better than this. He is an incredible vocalist, one of the best in this season and he is SO funny. I'm definitely going to stan MYTEEN.

So, Produce X 101. It was a good season. However, the finale lineup is so weird for me. COMPLETELY different from the past episodes. I feel like Mnet wanted more drama than anything. I'm going to follow X1 but not stan. I like all the trainees but it still feels weird. I will maybe stan at some point, I have to wait for their songs to decide.

Good luck X1, I hope you will succeed.

lbh, not having jinhyuk in the final lineup is a huge loss.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR DRABBLES!!!! 💞💞💞💞

this is so sweet, thank you so much! i’m so glad you like them, this really warms my heart <3

kookheon + 7? i love your writing qt ♥︎

here it is!! I struggled a bit on the ending (it could’ve been better imo) but I hope you like it!

[12:45 p.m.] “ahh, that looks so good!” you whined on the couch as you scrolled through Instagram, and saw a video of someone making brownies. kookheon leaned over the couch, his head hovering near your shoulder to see what you were watching. “brownies sound good. I think we have a box mix in the pantry, shall I make it for you?” you tilted your head back and kissed his chin. “pfft, babe, I really appreciate the thought, but we both know that you’d probably burn the house down if you tried.” kookheon’s head snapped down as he squinted his eyes at you, “is that a challenge?” you looked back at him and blinked, “what is? you making brownies? not really.” “but you didn’t say no. fine, I’ll make these brownies myself and I’ll make them so perfect, you won’t be able to tell whether they’re homemade or by a professional,” kookheon declared.

so for the next hour, you watch, chin resting in the palm of your hand, as kookheon goes through the following steps: preheats the oven, gets the brownie mix and the other ingredients, grabs a mixing bowl and begins to add the ingredients (he accidentally also got a piece of eggshell in there, which he fussed over before removing immediately), and he got the batter into a baking pan and put it in the oven. while he was washing his hands, sleeves rolled up to reveal the veins in his arms and the concentration painted on his face, you sighed, “ah, you look so attractive right now, it’s literally insane. I am gonna go insane.” kookheon looked up at you and smiled, now drying his hands and walking up to you. resting his hands on your hips, he gives them a little squeeze. “you always look attractive, my sweet y/n.” shy, you give his shoulder a slight push, murmuring, “stop, you’re making me blush!” kookheon smiles even wider and tugs you closer to him. he leans in and you two share a series of dulcet kisses. and just before the passion begins burning in either one of you the oven timer went off, indicating that the baked goods were ready.

kookheon pulled them out of the oven and let the brownies cool, before cutting them up and serving you a piece, a confident smile on his face. you bit into the brownie and it tasted as you expected. “babe, you’re the absolute best! thank you for the brownies, these are so good!” you gushed and wrapped your arms around him in a tight hug. laughing, he reciprocated and said, “and I won two things: the challenge and a happy y/n.”

they really separated wooseok from jinhyuk im-
