Original post:

[posted to ATEEZ Topic] Let& #39;s discuss, when and why did you & #39;board the ship& #39; (stan ATEEZ)?

*入坑: literally means & #39;enter the pit& #39;, translates to & #39;stanning& #39; basically
1. OP& #39;s words:

Everyone& #39;s probably feeling down tonight [bc KD] right? Doesn& #39;t matter new or old fans, everyone can take comfort from these comments. Once ATEEZ reaches the top, we can look back and see how good our past selves& #39; taste was.
2. OP& #39;s stan moment:

It was 2019, Wonderland era. Accidentally saw their Wonderland stage with uniforms, the song was so good and the dance was so powerful so I searched up their info. How did they have so many albums so soon after debut? Fine, I& #39;ll listen to them.+
2+.

After listening to one album, oh! Why is it so good, I never wanted to skip a single song! And then the second, third, fourth album, none of them were skips. Because of their quality music, I came onboard (kaja)
3. It was during Fireworks era, I stanned bc of SMN. I saw the 4x4 random play dance, the driving dance and rhythm were so catchy so I looked up the MV, afterwards realized I was a fan and listened to all their songs one by one.
4. In the SMN MV, Seonghwa& #39;s expressions were too amazing! San, Yunho, Mingi dancing in a trio at the end was too fiery, Hongjoong& #39;s rap was always so cool, Seonghwa& #39;s stage presence was so good, Yunho& #39;s long limbs made his dance great to watch, Yeosang I could instantly tell+
4+.

was a visual. San was such a cutie offstage, I hope Mingi can recover quickly and return to the team, Wooyoung& #39;s killing part was so cool, Jongho our apple main vocal, ATEEZ is the best fighting!
5. In April 2019 I watched a video on the best kpop songs, I was originally there for another group but after hearing Pirate King...that moment I thought it was really to my taste*. I remembered the group name so I could look them up, after listening to SMN my reaction was+
5+.

the same as listening to Pirate King, after looking I realized it was actually from the same group! I stopped searching, even now I& #39;m in awe, how is there a group that so completely suits my tastes

*完全是我的菜 I think translates to & #39;my taste& #39;, slang is hard :((
6. First time I heard of them was 2019 MAMA, at the time I thought their stage presence was so strong that I watched it many times after. Bc I never stanned K-Pop groups I didn& #39;t plan on looking them up, but during 2020 MAMA I suddenly wanted to rewatch last year& #39;s+
6+. performance. Afterwards I went to look up their name, and after watching their Answer performance on MAMA I officially stanned.
7. Inception suits my taste so much kkkkk
8. I stanned because of their Answer/Inception performance at 2020 MAMA!
9. Today is my 462 day as ATINY, Answer is forever a god-tier song. But I already knew of them in 2019, I just wasn& #39;t a full fan yet.
10. Around April or May Wave was my daily recommended song, the music pulled me in so with a curious heart I opened the playlist. I realized every song was good, so I looked up their stage to recognize their faces. In June I watched their Answer stage and officially stanned.
11. One day I couldn& #39;t sleep late at night and saw THANXX Relay Dance while scrolling through Weibo. From start to finish Wooyoung caught my eye, I was stunned by his looks against my will. Afterwards I realized every song was equally amazing *crying noises*
12. During Answer era, I watched one of San& #39;s Wonderland fancams and became a stan
13. When I was searching for K-Pop MVs, I got roped in by Answer.
14. I was also pulled in by Wonderland, the dance practice version pulled me into the pit and even buried the soil again, I& #39;m not climbing back out

*basically they are never unstanning ateez
15. I was watching a video online explaining the hardest K-Pop choreographies and saw HALA HALA. I got addicted to it and after watching their Wonderland stage immediately became a stan.
16. Actually I always listened to their songs, I counted myself as a casual fan. After listening to the instrumental teaser of THANXX, I lay down at the bottom of the pit and looked up the whole group. Ah, I don& #39;t exist anymore, it& #39;s only ATEEZ.
17. [looked up] K-Pop boy group top album sales --> the song was good --> stage --> Kim Hongjoong --> all members

*basically their progression of what they looked up and resulted in them stanning
Taking a quick break bc I can& #39;t add anymore tweets to the thread atm, stay tuned for more (and all the tags will come after too there& #39;s almost 200 ppl cries)
18. Kingdom!!! I really regretted not discovering this hidden gem of a group before!! Their intro and Round 1 stages were so amazing!!
19. I stanned bc of Wave, at the time I felt like it really suited my taste and was great to listen to, it had such a refreshing summer feeling.
20. Last January I saw an ad for ATEEZ and instantly liked their style, when Inception came I really got into them. San immediately caught my eye, and during this year& #39;s comeback officially stanned. Everyone let& #39;s keep fighting during Kingdom voting, ATEEZ deserves even better!
21. During Kingdom I became a fan bc of leader Hongjoong& #39;s expressions!
22. I was waiting for my ult girl group& #39;s stage and accidentally heard their SMN comeback stage and instantly zoned in on the maknae, after that I ran to look their other songs up, all of them really suited my tastes. Answer is the song that instantly made me stan.
23. One day I suddenly heard Inception and discovered it was so good! Then Answer! How was it also so good! I looked up their other songs and realized they were all my style! Then I found their MAMA 2019 stage, their dancing is so amazing! They& #39;re so powerful! Instantly stanned.
24. I saw some ranking on Bilibili and instantly loved Inception, like crazy I went to go search their MV and listened to more songs. I wanted to look them up more and fell in love with their personalities, at first it was blue-haired Hongjoong and Seonghwa who +
24+.

roped me in, then Wooyoung and San... now my biases are the whole group.

*that last sentence HAHA they& #39;re saying they basically & #39;crawl all over& #39; the team looking for a bias (in an exaggerated way)
25. I scrolled to Inception MV and thought the song was nice, afterward I looked up more MVs and after clicking on Wonderland I was shook, looked up more stages and was instantly drawn in by Hongjoong& #39;s expressions. I watched the whole stage in a state of shock and awe,+
25+.

each member& #39;s stage presence was so powerful, I haven& #39;t seen such an exciting stage in a long time.
26. I heard a lot about ATEEZ, but I was always lazy to learn about them, I always thought it was international fans bragging unfairly about their skills (I was very biased). During Inception comeback I clicked into their MV, the line & #39;I& #39;m in love& #39; was too catchy, I watched+
26+.

it every day and basically memorized their faces, went onto a music app and listened too all their songs. After throwing aside my bias I realized all their songs were amazing, I really could not find any bad song.
27. I& #39;m an old K-Pop fan~ Accidentally saw Wonderland and thought the concept was pretty cool, I was floored by Mingi& #39;s voice and Seonghwa& #39;s hair, after I heard Answer I became a fan! I kept searching for more of their stages and variety shows.+
27+.

I really love ATEEZ& #39;s passion, I& #39;m a person who really likes rhythm, and their music really is completely my style, I am an Atiny!! I also regret not searching them up after 2019 MAMA, or else I would have found our precious pirates sooner.
I& #39;m going to stop here now, thank you so much for reading! I was absolutely overwhelmed by the response my post got, I& #39;m really thankful to see ppl interested in what other Atiny have to say and I hope this gives y& #39;all a positivity boost https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💖" title="Funkelndes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Funkelndes Herz"> let& #39;s all keep working hard! Fighting!
