​

Fun facts:
-BX is the maknae in his family but the eldest in CIX while Hyunsuk is the eldest in his family but the maknae of CIX.
-Yonghee and Jinyoung attended the same middle school. Yonghee was a brain and Jinyoung was a musically-inclined jock, so Jinyoung didn't remember Yonghee that much but Yonghee remembers Jinyoung very well. 😭 Jinyoung blames it on not only them being part of different crowds, but them living in different neighborhoods.
-Both BX and Seunghun appeared in Netflix's "YG Future Strategy Office." BX got to squirt Seungri with a syringe full of mystery spluge.
-Both BX and Jinyoung are allergic to shrimp. BX is also allergic to peaches. Keep the epinephrine on hand, C9.
-According to Soompi, Jinyoung's MBTI personality is ESFP.
-According to Kpop Map these are the rest of their MBTIs: BX & Yonghee (ENFJ), Seunghun & Hyunsuk (ENFP)
-BX says his English name is Justin Lee.
-Both BX and Seunghun have no Earth signs in their natal chart. Jinyoung (who has 5 Earth signs) should try to influence them to save and invest correctly. Jinyoung has no Water signs though, so he might need empathy training especially since does not have moon aspects or excess mutable signs to make up for it. Hyunsuk is the most balanced, while Yonghee is relatively balanced with brain over feelings.

[Poetry]

The part with the post-it notes...
Seunghun is so hyper. The YGTB editing team did him a disservice by showing too many pathetic moments.
Tbh Seunghun and Byounggon's size/heights suit the aesthetics of this team.
C9 must've been ecstatic to find members who are tall enough to still look good next to their giant maknae.

I already have a strong attachment to Seunghun, but now I'm getting attached to 3 other members of this group as well (this includes Byounggon if anyone is wondering). Four out of five, if I like their debut song, MV, and stage: Looks like I'm stanning.

I really love how the meaning of their name and logo comes together. And their logo allows for a lot of cake, pie, pizza, etc. memes.
