[weibo] cfan’s thinkpiece on #hanbin’s thoughtfulness towards fans!
while throwing balls at kcon, a lot of people said the way he threw the balls is so cute, like a little princess! but actually, it was also sung hanbin’s way of showing his warmth to his fans.

#zhanghao has recently gained traction among cfans for his intelligence!
according to this weixin article (kudos @zhanghaosky!) he entered the uni of geosciences in 2017 (#1 in china)
to do this, he had to take the 高考gaokao in 2016. so, he took it at age 16 vs the usual 18!
55
translating this post on xhs:
“zhang hao was only 16yo when he scored to enter the #1 university!
he was born 2000.7.25
which proves that he was only 16 when he took the gaokao
he wasn’t fully of age in china!
f*ck so cool!
science&art genius top scorer
really too cool!”

repost OK with credit
re-translation OK with credit
i apologise if there are any mistakes! this was quite lengthy 😭
57
another op on xhs also said:
“i am a 2020 student who took the fujian art yikao, i feel like i really need to add on that hao’s yikao scores are really f*cking awesome… it’s the kind that is even f*cking awesome among ordinary people”
58
the logistics of exams in china are a little hard to explain/translate, but basically another tidbit of info - zhang hao only studied for 6 months before scoring 1st in the yikao, which is a huge feat
op: “he’s never tasted what it’s like to be 2nd in his lifetime, i’m shocked”
59
another cfan on xhs praises zhang hao for all he managed to achieve in a short period of time:
60
[weibo] a cfan noticed a habit of #zhanghao’s, where he subconsciously raises his pinky. op speculates that this habit developed from his hard work in practicing violin!
61
comment from a friend of a friend of #zhanghao!
“my friend is good friends with him, my friend told me he’s a really hardworking person who works hard towards whatever he decides he wants to do, so he’s really quite strong.”
62
63
a cfan noticed some of #hanbin’s thoughtful gestures at kcon!
“sung hanbin how are you so good, i’m crying 😭”
64
did zhang hao use the same pack or gift cards for both ricky and matthew? 😭 it’s too cute

op: “to be honest i never believed male clean freaks existed, but after i saw these i believed it”
comment: “my god, does he know how to do cuticle care? all sides of his nails are so clean”

[eng trans] thread of #zhanghao’s ex-schoolmates and juniors praising him!
these posts are mostly from december 2022, in the wake of his announcement as g-group center on boys planet

[weibo] #hanbin
i’ll say this again, sung hanbin’s secret to being so popular is returning sincerity with sincerity, he even has a box specially for keeping fan letters, there’s no way i wouldn’t fall for him 😭 (video attached)

‘just realised 傍晚 is a timing unique to the chinese language, seeing kr fans asking what time 傍晚 is quite a mystical thing
傍晚 - in between sunset and moonrise, when the horizon is engulfed by dusk, and the glow of the sun warmly and romantically shines on all living things’ twitter.com/apeaceofbutter…
69
cfans are appreciating #zhanghao for being the catalyst to non-chn speakers’ interest in the language!
“zhang hao chinese” is trending in korea! (#21)
today i saw many fans learning chinese “高岭之花” “傍晚” etc, i like how zh is relaying beautiful chinese phrases to the world🥰

[weibo] on #zhanghao’s charming nonchalance lol
during kcon he wiped bin’s sweat then just turned away from him, completely unconcerned with his response. here, he waited as yujin put on glasses for him, then immediately directed his gaze elsewhere, leaving yujin to stare at him twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
