I've been extremely skeptical & bothered by this idea that Hoseok was unpopular, unliked, thought as ugly, etc. specif. at the time of debut. Not only bc it doesn't make any sense, but bc I see very little credible evidence of it. In this 🧵I will address this narrative. Unroll..

Mini 🧵(unroll):
One of the common misconceptions is that Hobi left BTS at one point bc he was getting hate. That couldn't be further from the truth. Hobi left for a brief period sometime in Spring/Fall of 2012. BTS hadn't even been fully formed, how could he be getting hate? +

Omg, why did my heart flutter when he was approaching the camera? Can you imagine? The lesson is if you ever go to a BTS concert, aim to sit near the fan and waters. You'll get a Hobi parade the entire time.
I started researching LOCKING in preparation for

In fact, it's likely he had quite a lot of fans comparatively since he was the most known member at the time. He had national recognition due to his numerous dance awards. Here is an excerpt from IZE magazine (July 18, 2013) where V commented on this.
Boogaloo Kin is a phenomenal dancer w/a great range of expression, charisma, dynamics, not to mention excellent musicality. The way he was hitting those beats at the end was fire.

IS A PERFORMING ARTS ACE – A SERIES: Introduction 🧵

All this is true but his lyrics are not always inaccessible. His rap verses in "on the street" are very beautiful and poetic. Actually, all the lyrics in HOTS are mostly easy to comprehend if you put even a drop of effort.

All of them get about the same amount of mail, but the narrative in the comments is "look how happy Hobi is to get even a little bit of mail" simply because he hugs Jimin when he receives his pile.
What's impressive about Hong 10 is that he's 40 years old and overcame a career ending injury to win his third Red Bull BC One World Finals in 2022. This Red Bull BC One trophy is the pinnacle prize of competitive Breaking.

Bet most haven't even seen the full vlog. Out of 899 fancafe members (he reads the number) there is only a handful of mail messages. That's not even 1% of the fandom at that time. Just because he didn't get mail addressed to only him THAT DAY, doesn't mean he didn't have fans.
