why haechan is a vital member of nct dream

— a long must-read thread

Haechan has been a part of NCT DREAM for almost 4 years (and considering the fact that he’s been with them ever since their trainee days, more years has to be added) which solidifies the fact that he is one of the six (seven) pillars that keeps the group stagnant.

Haechan is the Main Vocalist of the group. According to my research, Haechan has to deal with (at most, and considering his lines from every song released, including but not limited to) the ad-libs, bridge and pre-chorus/chorus (which he sometimes shares with the other members)

It is evident that one must obtain the proper skill/capability to be regarded as one which can be obtained (including but not limited to) through dedication (hours of practice) and determination (to hone the said skill)

Apart from haechan being a Main Vocalist, it is evident that he is a remarkable and exceptional dancer as he is a singer. He has been praised by various people with extreme knowledge for his dancing ability.

Aside from that, Haechan has been praised by important figures (producers, choreographers, music video directors etc.) in the industry for his undeniable talent. (ctto):

Other than that, his rapping skill, his charm, aegyo, variety adeptness, variety show skill, wit and don’t get me started on his visuals are just one of the many more aspects that haechan possesses as a member of NCT DREAM.

But above all, it’s the love that he has for the members that makes him an exceptional member. His profound and genuine love for the members shows through his hard work, effort and dedication as their co-member.

Here are some videos that I’ve collected where he expresses and showcases his love and adoration for the group/members:

“I got a lot of qs, ‘are you okay?’ ‘you’re not tired?’ I sometimes get tired. but DREAM is important to me. I want to be tgt under any circumstances. Don’t worry. I cant do it if it’s hard. When I’m active it means Im fine. Don’t worry about it” - haechan

“while having many activities, though there are a lot of hard times, a lot of people helped me by my side. above all else, what I was most thankful about is—our dream members. Renjun, Jeno, Jaemin, Chenle and Jisung. [cont]

[cont] Because they supported me, took care of me and understood me, I had much more fun. Above anything else, I miss mark hyung even more today”

After having watched the videos, the sincerity of every word spoken by haechan guts me, what he said and what has been shown totally emphasizes how important dream is to him as he is to them.

haechan’s relationship with the members is one of the most precious and remarkable thing I’ve been blessed to witness. Through all their years spent together, it is apparent how comfortable they are with one another.

Every teases and jokes muttered, every cries, smile and adoration shared in between words said in ments, interviews, etc. and every memory they have collected showcased how the past years has shaped and heightened their closeness and fondness with one another.

His/Their friendship is one that can never be easily found/attained anywhere but through (cringe-y, I know) miracle. They were like a match made in heaven.

to add to this thread, here are the members’ letter for haechan that deeply emphasizes how important haechan is in dream (ctto)

“our team’s moodmaker” “Haechan the moodmaker” “hyung is the most important member in our team” “the one who’s in charge of making fun on the team”

Aside from that, we cannot ignore how profound his love is for us, sunflowers and fans in general. Him as a member of NCT DREAM has brought so much happiness, love and comfort to us.

the way haechan said we should always put him third place and our family/work as first and second bc he’s only here to be our go-to for healing and only here for the sole purpose of being our comfort. out of all the things he said to us sfs, it’s this that really stuck with me.

He has such a good heart which never fails to appreciate and gives thanks to those people that supports and loves him. He is such a remarkable and valuable member that has all the good attributes that a group needs.

I hope people takes the chance to get to know haechan better because he has so much more to offer than what meets the eye. I hope as the time goes on, more people will support and love him because that’s what he deserves.

Haechan has contributed profoundly as one of the members in the past years and in the more years to come. These demonstrates without a shadow of a doubt that haechan plays a vital and irreplaceable role in NCT DREAM.
