these past few weeks, i feel like i want to give up. Then, i sat in front of my desk and looked at jeonghan & joshua trading card from caratland 2019. I suddenly remembered how they wanted to quit together. They cried in front of their manager, whining to quit and ending their training period. But somehow, they ended up choosing to not give up. They tried once again and they made it instead.

I then wondered, "am i able to go through this hardship? Can i make it?"

Everything will be different once you choose to give up or not to give up. You'll be a completely different person. And you're in charge of choosing between those two options. You're in charge of your own fate.

I know, quitting doesn't mean you're weak. It could be empowering. But, you need to know what's the best option for your life? You know what's the best for you, either it's quitting or not.

I realize that i am not alone, too. My friends and I, we have to go through this hardship together too. We could encourage each other so everyone will feel like we have each other.

They have lifted up my spirit a little bit. They also showed me that it's okay to feel like you want to give up, it's okay to cry. It's okay to feel you can't endure it anymore.

Well thank you, Jeonghan and Joshua.

I hope I will have the same tenacity as you two. I hope I will not give up. I hope I can make it, just as you two. I hope I can endure this for at least the next eight months.

I love you both, so so much. You guys mean so much to me... thank you for always being there for me.

p.s. the title comes from Wakutani team's motto in Haikyuu, 粘を見せろ (show your tenacity).

Hello!!! So i am back quickly with another yoonhong brain rot!!

I suddenly remembered about the great pretender anime, and i think isn't it interesting if we have a yoonhong con artist au?!

So, jeonghan is the well-known con artist who works with his team. The team consists of Seungcheol (or i am actually thinking about Seungcheol who's Joshua right hand man??? So maybe Seungcheol would be replaced with Mingyu) Jun, and Hoshi. They targeted Joshua, a rich man. Well, i don't really think about what Joshua does. But maybe he's a collector of painting/any expensive and rare items. But, besides that, he also has a business that is affiliated with the mafia community.

So the plot is basically jeonghan tries to trick Joshua because he wants Joshua's money (and Joshua's downfall). But, little did he knew that Joshua also tricks Jeonghan. He wants to make Jeonghan falling in love with him. Joshua is as manipulative and smart as Jeonghan is. He doesn't that easy to be tricked of. But even though Joshua wants Jeonghan to love him, Joshua never love Jeonghan first. Same with Jeonghan, Joshua wants to ruin Jeonghan. Joshua knew that Jeonghan is a con artist even though he pretends to be someone else. Joshua wants to protect his property from Jeonghan.

Overall it is about "Jeonghan wants Joshua's money, Joshua wants Jeonghan's love."

I want to include Jeonghan and his team's fighting because Jeonghan seems to be in (madly) in love with Joshua. He loses focus while working.

Hmm but I actually think that it would also be interesting if Jeonghan also knew that Joshua tries to manipulate him, trying to make him falling in love with Joshua. So Jeonghan's plan to get Joshua's money is also to make Joshua falling in love with him. In the end, they are going to be falling for each other. Jeonghan's plan is ruined because of love and he lose his friends.

Idk idk, again, this is only a brain dumps.

so... I've been thinking about yoonhong au where jeonghan & joshua work as a partner in crime. I don't exactly have any picture of what's the setting is/what's the universe looks like. But maybe mafia/gangster au could work??? The setting in underworld would be perfect, i guess.

For the conflict, i don't have any picture too lol but for the character, i think joshua is the real villain. He's more evil than Jeonghan. Jeonghan will get his redemption arc first and he's trying to save joshua.. i want them to have a good back story of how they could get there, working as a mafia and wandering around in underworld. I am thinking that they became partner because joshua found jeonghan first. i am thinking about joshua who saved jeonghan at the very beginning of their encounter. So joshua is the one who has been involved in crime first. Or... Their encounter began because both of them have been involved in crime and they met each other because they apparently had the same target? Lol idk, i'm still thinking about developing the plot. But yeah, something happened between the two in the present so jeonghan gets his redemption arc, meanwhile joshua does something unpredictable and he appears to be the real villain. Or i think that would also be good if joshua ends up being the anti-hero? Idk, maybe the story would involve a revenge plot..

I came into a conclusion of joshua as more evil than jeonghan because somehow i have an impression of Joshua as more threatening? that's why i fear Joshua more than Jeonghan. because Joshua is an unpredictable person, he could do something that we could never expect or predict before? So in my imagination of this au, no one could imagine that Joshua could be a psychopath? But yeah, both of them is the type of people who's willing to do anything to get what they want. But for jeonghan, because he is more calculated, he is not as unhinged as joshua is. That's why Jeonghan is easier to read than Joshua.

Well, i think that's for today's yoonhong brain dump. I only have this rough imagination of this au and i don't have any plan to make it happen lol.

I've been thinking about how perfect jeonghan and joshua are as a pair these past few days.

No one can top them, SERIOUSLY.

First of all, they both have a good back story. Their predebut story is just...... Oh god, very heartwarming and wonderful. Everytime I remember about they predebut story, I am convinced that soulmate is real. Because look at them, there's no explanation that could argue that they are not soulmates. Everyone is obligated to believe that Jeonghan and Joshua are soulmates. Period.

They are truly the embodiment of Taylor Swift's Mastermind, especially this lyrics:

Once upon a time, the planets and the fates
And all the stars aligned
You and I ended up in the same room
At the same time

LIKE??? THIS IS THEM!!! both entered pledis around the same time. ALSO they both are streetcasted and CAN YOU IMAGINE.. they were separated by different continents??? and then they ended up in that freaking melona room??? it's just ... Magical. RIGHT?

everyday, i thank god for making it possible for them to meet each other and stay together, even after all those hardships. They almost quitted together but again, their determination to debut won. I am glad.

Anyway, speaking of "who's the mastermind?" I personally think it was Joshua. He was the first person who talked to Jeonghan and his first impression of jeonghan.... i think it was a love at the first sight.

Joshua: when i first saw jeonghan, i really thought that he was such a pretty kid. his skin was so white and smooth and his eyes were big. i was amazed that there was someone as pretty as him in korea. when i found out that we were the same age, i immediately wanted to get closer to him and be his friend. i also liked how hard working he was when we were practicing.

Or you know?? Just them having that invisible string so Joshua probably had this "strong bond" for Jeonghan that push him to get closer to him. Just a gut or trust that this person is "the one", something like that.

Okay, the second reason is their personality. At the first sight you saw them, you probably think that they have different personalities, like truly the opposite. joshua looks like that kind, obedient, simple-hearted, and brilliant boy. You won't expect him to break the rules or being a rebel, no. Meanwhile Jeonghan, he appears to be mischiveous, witty, kind but also annoying, and of course, a rebel.

Well but the truth is, THEY ARE SIMILAR OF EACH OTHER. it turns out that joshua is also mischiveous, witty, and a rebel as well!! even he can be more annoying than jeonghan! Yeah, watch going seventeen "best friends" episode to know more :)

Joshua is more unhinged compared to Jeonghan, everybody agrees, right? He is unpredictable and acts by impulsivity. That's why he could think of the craziest ideas than Jeonghan could. So, i also think he could be the brain of the "evil twins" or "witz duo". He always surprises us!

Meanwhile with Jeonghan, we can expect him to do some crazy or weird shits at the very start because it is what he usually does. He is more calculated than Joshua.

And this is what's interesting about their dynamics. They just made a perfect combination of the same weird, insane, mischievous person with a different way of act and thinking. Like, no one is on the same level as Jeonghan is besides Joshua. the only person who could win over Jeonghan is Joshua and vice versa. They energy is just matched with each other.

That's why you'll see Going Seventeen editor, Weverse magazine editor, Pledis staff, and even the members said "as expected, Yoon Jeonghan's friend, Joshua Hong or Joshua Hong's friend, Yoon Jeonghan"

if they unite, no one can stop them to do the craziest shit. They will surprise us with crazy and weird shit. They will do everything to get what they want because they are so competitive and witty and mischievous!

OH also i have to mention this too!!! even if they have similar personalities, they have different hobbies. Jeonghan is more a sporty type, he is more into outdoor activities. Meanwhile Joshua, he's artsy who loves music and craft. Isn't it cute and cool, right? LIKE they complement each other so much <3

They are the powerful couple that everyone afraid of and respect. They are the pair that you will be rooting for.

So in conclusion, you can find the soulmates, friends to levers, partner in crime, ride or die, even enemies to lovers trope and dynamic in them! They possess the quality of main characters, antiheroes, and villains with a good back story and redemption arc.

Yes they are perfect, everyone go away and stan JHHJ!!!!
