The Sisters
KOBAYASHI EMIKO + SONG DAN BI . DANIKO
Flo and Eliza are complete opposites, yet they complement each other so well.
Eliza tends to get quite restless and hyper so, in times like this, Flo will gently pull her to the side and sit with her until she’s calm and refocused.
Flo doesn’t talk much and likes to keep to herself, and Eliza respects that. However, during things like vlives, fan signs, and variety shows, Eliza is the first person Flo will turn to in order to help her come out of her shell and get involved.
Basically soulmates who’d be lost without each other.
TANG MEIZHEN + EMMA KING . TANGKANG
Babies! Actually pretty chill for the maknaes; don’t tend to cause too much havoc.
When they’re not pestering their unnies, they can be found in Emma’s dorm room, practicing English under a giant blanket fort or reading whilst snuggled up; Molly loves to just lie with her head on Emma’s lap whilst she reads aloud to her in English, even though half the time she has no idea what she’s saying.
Molly used to give Emma Mandarin lessons...but that all stopped when she found out that Emma is practically fluent in the language already.
Overall, TangKang is a squishy, cuddle-buddy ship that everyone adores!
LIN MINGXIA + TANG MEIZHEN . MINGZHEN
Rewind’s China-line! Molly and Mae are each others emotional-support buddy; they go to each other whenever they feel homesick and just rant in Mandarin.
Don’t initiate skinship too often, but will occasionally lock pinkies if they’re stood together.
Mae is in love with Molly’s little sister, Meixiu; she peeks over Molly’s shoulder when her family’s facetiming.
Just a precious ship.
CHOI BONG CHA + ROSY MOON . MOONCHOI
Rewind’s leader and fake-leader.
It’s a known fact that Clara was supposed to be Rewind’s leader, however she thought Rosie was much better suited to the job, so she stepped down.
Even though this may be true, Rosie still has her days where it all gets too much and she feels the pressure. This is where Clara steps in to offer her kind words of encouragement and advice if she really, truly needs it, but at the same time reassures her that if she didn’t honestly believe that Rosie was capable of the leader position, she would not have stepped down.
We love supportive mother Clara!
CHOI BONG CHA + EMMA KING . EMARA
The eldest and the maknae! Now I don’t wanna say that Clara mothers Emma...but Clara mothers Emma, it’s as simple as that.
If Emma’s feeling sick, Clara’s there with medicine and a bowl of chicken soup. If Emma’s hungry, Clara’s there with a big bag of snacks. If Emma’s upset, Clara’s there with tissues and open arms ( I think you get the gist).
Clara loves Emma with all her heart and vice versa; Clara’s her older sister away from home.
Pretty much just your basic mother-daughter ship that Nctzens can’t seem to get enough of.
ROSY MOON + JULIETTE LECLAIR . ROLIE
Even though she didn't show it, Julie was extremely nervous upon joining the group. She kept to herself for the first day or two. That is until Rosie, being the good leader that she is, took her under her wing. Because of this, Rosie's the first person that she really got close to in the group, and they'll always have that special bond.
They're pretty similar, personality wise; quiet, preferring to observe rather than speak. They stick to each other on variety shows and during interviews.
Rosie's managed to convince the stylists to let Julie have a hand in the styling process for their mvs and stage performances. She loves watching Julie be totally in her element.
Honestly, anyone would believe that they're long-lost sisters at this rate.
KOBAYASHI EMIKO + OKAMOTO HOSHI . EMISHI
To say Emiko was gobsmacked upon finding out Okamoto Hoshi was joining NCT, I really, truly mean it. Not only was she gonna have another female Japanese member to talk to, but a former member of Morning Musume?? Someone pinch her, she must be dreaming!
Hoshi's Korean still isn't all that great, so she's so relieved that Emi's around to help translate for her, if need be.
Emiko is teaching her how to bake; Calls Hoshi her little prodigy. They video call Emi's grandmother, Maemi, as moral support.
A cutie and her mini-me.
