rewatching old day6 content and realizing a lot of the stuff that i liked when i was a myday was sooo painfully pre-2021 (jaesix vlogs, wonpilates, etc.) but also that i’m not a fan of a lot of their newer variety stuff ctfuuu… i did enjoy young k’s hangout with you/how do you play but a lot of their stuff feels a lot more — polished? and that’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it definitely feels more idol-y, which *i* personally don’t like because i feel like it falls into the “trying to please everyone pleases no one” category where i wouldn’t watch their content because if i wanted idol stuff i’d go and look at an actual idol’s variety and if i wanted band stuff i’d look at their old content or look at an actual band’s bts content. you know?

anyways it made me think about a lot of my old relationships with day6 and their members, which, like, if you were a day6 fan in the early days automatically means my relationship with jae and youngk/brian (used interchangeably in this post) because being an international english-speaking fan in those days basically meant that your favorite was one of those two, or maybe wonpil if you were more adventurous. thoughts under the cut because this is, like, 2amposting and also my first dw post, so like — if you expected any sort of formatting or structure beyond this there is none. sorry
