Mingyutalk 102- sneezing

Not kidding, I’m actually starting to worry for Mingyu’s health

It’s starting to turn really cold in Seoul, I mean like 9°C?!

For a person who’s been living in a 30°C environment all her life aka me, it’s unimaginable. (okay this point is redundant)

Also, the temperature varies quite a fair bit between day and night. 

Seventeen is still working super hard- when have they not been? Apart from schedules they still have to prepare for the 3rd album.

Life hasn’t been easy for them. 

Anyway,

We, or some of us, may treat Mingyu’s sneezing like a fandom joke.

His unhygienic behaviour seems to be a fandom favourite too.

But have we actually thought how long has Mingyu been down with flu if that’s what causes him to sneeze so much?

I don’t know if he really sneezes that much, or maybe it’s just us zooming into occasional snippets of him sneezing.

If this pabo has been down with flu all this while, I really really hope he gets some rest.

I’m new to the fandom, but I do know how Seungcheol feigned that everything was alright when he ought to be resting in hospital.

I wish success for all of them, but their health is more important than anything else.

With so much dance practice I’ll optimistically assume that their general fitness level is rather good, but they aren’t machines either.

To Seventeen:

You guys have been working so hard- do you know how guilty it makes me feel? I feel so helpless. I honestly want you guys to win the rookie award though all the rookies are so talented too, but you all deserve it. Whether we win this or not, it doesn’t matter, it’s not your fault. So concentrate on staying healthy so that you can bring more great music and performances to us!

To Kim Mingyu:

You pabo, do you even know how much the thought of you falling ill makes me worried? Plus, I always treat you as my favourite 97 liner chingu, and it’s sad I can’t do anything to help you out if you aren’t feeling well. Honestly I actually hope Joshua is reading this so that he can tell you and all the members to take care. Also, please use tissues unless you really can’t afford it? Just tell us and I bet the fansites will start rushing to buy boxes of tissue for you. Wash your hands before and after meals and after you sneeze, pabo. The more attention you pay to hygiene, the less prone you are to falling ill- I hope you know that. Wear warmer clothes chingu, the weather’s getting crazy these days. Stay healthy cutiepie!

Tagged by @springlove-with-niellie-byungjoe oh gosh thank you for the interesting questions ^^

Rules: answer the questions your tagger asked you and then make up three new ones.

1) If you could spend a day with one group, who would it be and what would you want to do with them?

I'd want to jam with Seventeen all day long- it'd be really the best day of my life!I'd love an acoustic collab session in the morning with Vocal Unit (just like Adore U acoustic ver which made me fall for them like plunging into a diamond mine ohgawd) because I just love acoustic covers and harmonisation. I've been going solo most of the time so learning to harmonise with others would be a nice learning experience for me.

An afternoon session with Hiphop Unit to write lyrics would sound nice, I mean just imagine them writing cheesy sweet lyrics while looking into your eyes... Okay just kidding. I've been writing lyrics for a while okay I mean like 5 years but I just often get blocks so I guess Hiphop Unit would give me some inspiration; the members write really witty and impactful lyrics!

Also I wanna try out lyrical dance with Performance Unit because it sounds incredibly cool, dayum.

If I'm even allowed inside the studio I'd really want to learn from Woozi the basics of producing and processing music because that is totally one of my lifelong dreams- to work in a studio oh gawd.

And sitting with Mingyu during dinner sounds nice.... He can have all the food I cannot finish ;)

2) If you could make a music video for any non-title track, which song would it be and describe how you would make the video/scenes in the music video?

This is such a difficult question... But I guess it's Love Is... by Teen Top! It'll feature a storyline and also dances by the individual members. I'd have put in my fanfic storyline but since I haven't published it I'll save it for next time. Basically this song is about how one misses his girl after a breakup and laments that love is cruel. So I'd do a sequel of their Missing MV-

CAP moved away to reside in another city, working as a cafe barista to earn income to treat his chronic illness, but it seemed that time was running out. He often worked the entire day, and was in charge of closing shop every night. With the radio still turned on and when he was left with only himself in the cafe, the DJ's words would make him even more melancholic and empty inside. Imagine a cafe with the 'closed' sign but that one lamp in the corner was still switched on, where he would retrieve his phone, looking at his lockscreen of their happy faces back then. He let out a heavy sigh, lamenting how cruel love had to be. Caption: I hope you meet a better man, one who could make you forget a guy like me and make you happy.

The scene would change to L.Joe with the girl, and plot twist: the girl disappeared, leaving L.Joe dejected for the second time. He thought she had put away her broken heart caused by CAP, but it was never the case. He was a rebound. L.Joe would lament how cruel love is, and it is full of deception as things are temporary. Caption: I want to hold you in my arms again. But why are you not answering? Did you leave me?

Both of them would look into the mirror, and sigh as tears would escape from their eyes, rolling down their cheeks. Caption: Picturing you in my head, I realise how different you are from the pitiful image of myself I see in the mirror.

3) Who is the most “troublesome” bias-list ruiner to you and why?

I'd say EXO's Chanyeol. Yes technically he's one of my biases too but he invades and infiltrates my entire mind without me even noticing at times. Call it an overdose. I started getting addicted to him last year and I didn't even bother feeling bad for all my biases in EXO (Sehun, Baekhyun, Luhan) when I hadn't made him my bias yet, and before I knew it, I was already hallucinating (moral of the story: PCY is dangerous). He was also the first kpop idol to appear in my dreams, that's how easily influential he is, and how carelessly he can waltz into my bias list, ruining it into a mess.

Getting into Teen Top and giving myself space away from EXO, as weird as it seems, actually helped me to think about my addiction and figure out that Chanyeol is not really my ultimate bias after all. He is nearly perfect, like how us humans are, but at times I cannot see beyond his imperfections either. I feel bad, or even somewhat guilty, for not respecting his decisions or his actions at times, but that is truthfully how I feel. I love him for mainly who he was, instead of who he is now.

Chanyeol... was this nice giant, and although he worked hard to be the happy virus, he does not overdo it. If he felt awkward or did not know how to act in certain situations, he would still laugh awkwardly. For now, I see him as a confident, successful and charismatic member, but somehow I felt he lost a few qualities I'd never want him to lose. We can all say it's part of time's doing, it's part of growing up, but I do miss the Chanyeol in 2013 very very much. Just my opinion though. Nowadays he makes me so conflicted about whether he's even my bias, so I'd say that troubles me quite a fair bit too.

Not tagging anyone again but tag yourselves in these questions if you want and mention me (:

1. Have you ever cried while watching a music video and if so, what in the MV struck you the most?

2. If you could star in a music video which illustrates your life story, who would you pick as the main lead and why?

3. If you really married your ultimate bias, objectively speaking what problems do you think both of you would face while living together?

Have a nice day sweeties^^

Reasons to love Kim Mingyu

(Firstly I don't think this is mobile friendly, so just read this on browser ?)

He’s handsome (duh just look at him)

Even Dony recognises that fact

http://visualchingu.tumblr.com/post/132190866495/svnt-mingyu-weekly-idol-thanking-your

But he is more than that. He towers over others at 1.85m or 6′1 (depends on whether you think it’s a good thing)

http://dirty-jamjam17.tumblr.com/post/131636463145/height-chart-mingyu-3-my-edit-insomnia

By the way being tall has benefits. He is good at and therefore in charge of repairing things in the dorm e.g. replacing the light bulb

Speaking of hands-on skills, Mingyu’s often praised for that. He enjoys making models and figurines and is (self-proclaimed that he’s) skilled at it

He’s also the hairstylist in Seventeen. No kidding, it’s even verified among the members on ASC! And just watch him walking around in Andromeda trying to fix the members’ hair

He’s pretty great at cooking (at least better than me) and being the shikshin of Seventeen he obviously knows what’s quality food (think cheese curry baked rice omgawd my stomach) and how to make it

Mingyu’s drawing skills can really wow us like in the least expected times e.g. Show Champion backstage where he sketched this entire ‘lonely’ concept? And in Boys Be Diary too! I personally think sketching is his forte plus he captures the shading and angles pretty well~

He has a bright personality, not the radiant existence of the Sun aka Seokmin, but the type that warms your hearts

But when Mingyu wants to be serious, he will be, and VERY serious

An example is his inner vampire

He can be terribly cheesy to the fans but it’s super sweet at the same time? He once tweeted (just before a guerilla fanmeeting) asking “wanna meet up? I asked my manager for permission and he said yes!”

Yes Mingyu is (and treats himself as) basically the entire fandom’s boyfriend so he has to be shielded from harm at all cost

He’s also super humble by saying he aspires to be the visual cuz the members are handsome so he isn’t the visual

Not forgetting his canine teeth which was probably what attracted me at first sight cuz too cutez

http://visualchingu.tumblr.com/post/132332385325/because-i-highly-think-mingyu-is-a-lucky-star-and

Basically, I’m sorry you have to read such a long list because this video at the fansign sums most of it up already. He can rap, he can sing, he can do modelling, he can dance... What can he not do (besides meeting our hygiene standards)?

In other words, keep supporting Kim Mingyu ^^

[visualchingu]

mingyutalk 101- food vs jawline(?)

Mingyu probably needs to cut down on his humongous food intake; I mean okay yeah he’s the shikshin but chingu, if you continue like this you’re probably gonna lose your sharp jawline a few years down the road? Don’t overestimate yourself like what happened to Chunji.

Okay kidding, Chunji is still such a beauty; I love them both and want them to eat healthily, visual or not

And I find his jawline special from the start(?); it’s not exactly knife-sharp like Sehun’s but equally beautiful *blushes*

[visualchingu]

I will become more handsome in the future so please look forward to that. There're a lot of handsome members, so I can’t call myself visual; I'm just an aspiring visual.

Kim Mingyu
