hyojong would love spending with you when he’d have the time. even if he had a tight schedule, he’d try his best to make time for you by bringing you lunch while you’d be at work and maybe you’d take a little walk at a nearby park before you’d both have to go back
you’d do a lot of artsy things together like visit art museums and try to figure out the meanings of the art . this would probably inspire you to go a couple’s painting class or something
if you’d be able to, i think he’d like to get out of the city at least once a month to see nature and sort of reset because living in a bustling city can be very stressful. so, it’d do both of you some good to get away sometimes and catch up and maybe work on some hobbies but it wouldn’t really matter that much
ending every day by talking about the good, bad, and in-between and he hold eye contact as much as possible because he’d just want you to know that you have his undivided attention and he’d try his best to help you and offer advice if needed
⇾ acts of service:
i can see him cooking (even if he’s not the best cook) and cleaning in your shared apartment a lot, especially if you would have a bad day. he’d do whatever he could to help you feel better
this may not exactly count but i think that when he’d notice that you’re down, he’d try to get you to smile or laugh before he’d ask if you’d want to talk about it. would it always work? not all the time but that doesn’t mean that he’d stop. so, he’d make funny faces or do weird dances to make you laugh
i feel like he would offer to drive you any and everywhere just because and you’d appreciate it a lot because traffic can be brutal and you wouldn’t have to be alone on days when you’d have a lot of errands
there would always be those days where he’d be too tired to do his skincare routine and you’d always help him, so he would definitely return the favor. would probably squish you face gently before kissing your cheek and going to bed
⇾ physical touch:
lots of random hugs throughout the day that would make the both of you smile because even if it’s not your thing, you’d still find it comforting and cute and he’d understand when you’d need space
would not mind being the little spoon at all but i think he’d prefer to be the big spoon most of the time so he could hold you close and kiss your face while talking or watching a movie/show
speaking of kisses, there would be a lot. he’d kiss you hello, goodbye, good night, and good morning and would never get tired of it because he’d find the shy smiles that would appear on your face adorable
hyojong is the type to give you back hugs while you’d be cooking or something and somehow you’d both end up dancing around your small kitchen to the hum of the air conditioner
Hyojong is incredibly soft around you, he loves to be able to cuddle up to you and often uses his affection to make sure that you feel loved as that’s his number one priority. His affection will always be close and meaningful with you.
B ⇴ BEFORE DATING
The two of you met when you were working at the studio that he was rehearsing at. You weren’t quite sure what it was about you both, but the two of you just instantly seemed to click. You spent the whole day chatting away to each other and getting to know each other, finding out about all the things that you had in common with each other.
C ⇴ CONFESSION
It didn’t take too long for Hyojong to confess to you, he enjoyed your company, and there was no way that he was going to risk losing you to someone else first. He confessed one evening when the two of you went out for a walk, he sat you down on a bench halfway through your walk, taking a tight hold of your hand as he tried his hardest to remain calm and tell you everything that he wanted to say to you.
D ⇴ DATES
Hyojong always made time for you, at least once a week the two of you would have a whole evening where you’d just be with each other, with your phones switched off. He knew he was busy a lot, so he’d make up for plenty of lost time with your dates. He would make sure that every date the two of you had was special and made sure that it was something you’d remember. He much preferred your dates to be quiet and relaxed then anything too overwhelming, his main focus was just being able to talk to you.
E ⇴ EXPERIENCE
He didn’t care what anyone thought about the fact that he was in a relationship, he wanted to put his own happiness first, regardless of what anyone else thought. He knew what he had to do in order to go about things in the right way, having learnt from previous experiences, but if anyone was to tell him no, then he’d definitely go ahead and do the complete opposite. He was his own person, he didn’t need his company to tell him what he could or couldn’t do, his career would always be important to him, but so was love.
F ⇴ FIGHTING
The two of you didn’t tend to fight often, but if you did, it would usually end in something pretty big. The two of you were stubborn, and firmly believed that you were right in any disagreement that the two of you had. It would usually take for one of your friends to nudge the two of you back together and encourage you to talk things through. As much as you hated to fight with each other, you both knew that arguments were natural in relationships and that no one expected to live your lives always on the best of terms. Eventually, the two of you would always talk things through and carry on like nothing ever happened.
G ⇴ GETTING TO KNOW HIS FAMILY
To begin with, Hyojong’s family were quite protective, it took a couple of visits for them to really warm to you. It certainly made you nervous for a while, but as you gradually began to feel that you were accepted as a part of his family, it definitely made life easier for you, and put you in a much happier position with Hyojong.
H ⇴ HOME
Hyojong didn’t want to rush your relationship, he wanted to work at a pace that was comfortable for you both, but as he began to work a lot more, he was keen to move you in after a few months so that he could spend more time with you. He didn’t want to wait for days to see you anymore, he wanted to see you when he got home instead.
I ⇴ “I LOVE YOU”
He was the first one to say, ‘I love you,’ when you surprised him at a concert. He hadn’t seen you for a couple of weeks because he was working so hard, so when you had the chance to head over and see him, you took it in an instance. He didn’t have time to think when he saw your face for the first time, he just found himself letting you know that he loved you.
J ⇴ JEALOUSY
Around other people is often when Hyojong will feel most insecure. He knows that others think of him as a bit of a unique character, so when someone else tries to compare themselves to him, he’ll often shrink back into his shell. Just the feeling of your hand holding onto him will usually be enough to convince him that he has no reason to get jealous, but for the rest of the night he’ll definitely be a bit off the ball until the two of you can finally leave and he can go back to being in a more comfortable environment.
K ⇴ KIDS
Starting a family was a huge deal to Hyojong, he wanted to complete that family dynamic whenever the time was right for the two of you. You knew at the start of your relationship that his career was the priority, but as your relationship became more serious, that focus tended to shift more to trying to find a balance of making his career work, but also looking towards a future with you, preferably with children too.
L ⇴ LAUGHTER
You loved the many quirks that Hyojong had, he was unique, which was what you loved the most about him. There was never a day when he didn’t make you laugh, even if he was busy at work, he’d send you a dodgy selfie or send you a silly joke that he knew would put the smile on his face. He didn’t care how much of a fool he looked around you, if it was enough to make you laugh, then it was good enough for him. You would never not find yourself smiling around him, you just couldn’t help but enjoy Hyojong’s company.
M ⇴ MISSING
Now that he was travelling alone, Hyojong was more desperate to have you with him than ever. He’d try and work his schedules around you too so that you could take along and he could show you a bit more of the world. If you weren’t there, touring and promoting would feel very lonely for Hyojong. Not having you by his side was hard for him, especially if time zones meant that he wouldn’t be able to call you every day or receive a text from you. Whenever he came home from tour, he didn’t let you go for a very long time, he knew he had a lot of time to make up for, and despite your protests, he’d refuse to let you go.
N ⇴ NICKNAMES
When you first started dating, Hyojong mentioned to you how he loved when you called him ‘jongie,’ so that was what stuck for you both. Any time he heard you say it, it was a guarantee that his cheeks would turn bright red.
O ⇴ OBSESSION
Hyojong is obsessed with your heart, he loves what a pure and kind person you are, it’s the exact type of person a personality like his needs.
P ⇴ PDA

When he tells you that he doesn’t care what other people think, he means it, if he wants to show you off and hold you close to him, then he will. He never fusses or lets other people’s stares bother him.
Q ⇴ QUESTIONS
He’ll ask you a lot of questions, as he loves to strike up conversation with you. A lot of his questions are random, but that’s something that you’ve come to expect over the years, you never quite know what he’ll say.
R ⇴ RANDOM FACTS
Whenever he’s away on tour, Hyojong will carry a bracelet with him and wear it for his shows. It fits in well with the other bands around his wrist, but when you see it on his wrist, you know that he’s wearing it because of you. In interviews or segments, he’ll often fiddle with the bracelet to make a point of making sure that the camera focuses on it so you can see that he’s playing with the bracelet especially for you.
S ⇴ SEX
He’s incredibly soft when it comes to intimacy, he loves to make sure that you feel loved and special around him. Out of the two of you, he’ll tend to be the one that dominates a little more, he still likes to be the man and be the one to put in all the hard work, but if you mention to him that you want to switch, then he definitely won’t turn you down. Ultimately, all Hyojong ever wants is for you to be happy with him.
T ⇴ TEXTS
Texting is not something Hyojong is a fan of, if he wants to get in contact with you, he’ll usually call, just so he can see your face. Even if it’s only for a couple of minutes, just being able to see your face is a huge relief for him.
U ⇴ UNIVERSE

X ⇴ XXXXX

His kisses vary a lot, sometimes it will just be a light peck on the cheek, other times he’ll love to tease you, either by allowing his lips to linger against your skin or nibble gently against your skin. The feeling of you squirming as he presses his lips to you is exactly the reaction that Hyojong craves, all he wants is for you to be on your toes when he’s around.
Y ⇴ YOU
You were the one that understood exactly who Hyojong was, which he loved.
Z ⇴ ZZZ
When you slept, it became a bit of a habit for you to start tracing Hyojong’s tattoos. He loved feeling your hands dance along his skin, often coming up with new designs too against whatever exposed skin you could find.
