I have a favorite genre of fan-taken pictures of Haechan during concerts and I thought I'd share them.
This is just 10 out of a growing collection of HOLOesque pictures, so manifest a real HOLO concert before my phone runs out of storage 😔
🌿 When he spreads his arms like he owns the world at that moment.
And he kinda does? Haechan on-stage is mesmerizing, and we've heard over and over again from concert-goers that Haechan's presence demands attention, so yes, he OWNS the world.
it's also a running joke between me and my friends that Haechan thrives on the stage because he is ✨ a siren prince from Jeju ✨ who feeds off of the energy and cheers from the audience 😅
Those two pictures are his feeding time stance.
🌿 When the confetti falls around him and he's just there absorbing everything.
VERY SENTIMENTAL. When the camera captures him when he turns his back, and we're seeing what he's looking at? Perfect.
Haechan treasures performing so much, standing on different stages, and interacting with fans. It's a shame because these pictures don't show his face (the awe, the fondness, his eyes sparkle I'm not even kidding), but just knowing that he's looking at something he's worked hard for makes you feel warm, as well.
It's like watching Haechan realize and fulfill his dreams. He's always been so dedicated to his craft and seeing him happy and achieving so much brings me joy.
🌿 When he's singing his heart out and "breaking" the stage.
I feel so grateful to have found Haechan and to be honest, anyone is lucky to have him as their ult. A main vocalist and a main dancer who knows how to capture the audience, and has an oozing stage presence? YES.
But more than that (and being a songwriter, choreographer, rapper, radio host, emcee, actor, variety show genius, OST singer, model, all-rounder ace extraordinaire), his whole mindset about his career is what completes the package (talent, personality, character, visuals, brains, and wit).
Listen to him talk about the songs he wrote (Love Sign, NYCT, and the unreleased one). Watch how he directs his recordings and how he practices their choreographies. Observe how he talks about his future plans for songwriting and performing his own songs. Then, watch him on stage as he never slacks off, even when he does twice, thrice the usual idol workload. He gives his 120% every time he performs.
He isn't just an idol by name.
🌿 Lastly, when a thousand lights twinkle behind him like stars, and yet Fullsun still shines the brightest.
star1 magazine has a special place in my heart. They photograph Haechan so beautifully.
I was hoping that for his first solo magazine cover, they'd photograph him under natural light, but even though we can't have that, the photos still came out looking ethereal.
I love that they know how to dress him up and show how he has both masculine and feminine features. When the sunlight or the warm lights hit his skin, he literally glows 🥺
you need to listen to the whole song to appreciate the magic of Haechan's voice better :) his voice is literally a burst of sunshine. the uniqueness of his tone adds another layer of vocal color to nct's songs and it adds contrast to the other vocals
