67. his vibratos in songs. they’re like a separate entity altogether. we’ve got young k’s beautiful versatile voice, then we’ve got his vibratos. right there, on a pedestal.
68. that one fantaken picture of him at the recent thailand concert where he’s wearing a blue shirt and hugging himself(?) idk it’s cute his cheeks are full , he looks happy :’)
69. when he loses his shit during “sing me” in concerts and just vibes with the crowd. best.
70. kang younghyun’s DayDreaming. pre debut. go listen to it if you haven’t. rightnow.
71. the thumbnail of the last third degree video. young k with terry. it’s the look on his face. the innocence. i melt
72. his relationship with people around him and friends. it’s so cool and he literally leaves no stone unturned while thanking his friends :’) (KMESS4LYFE i c u)
73. i don’t say this enough but the lyrics of all alone. younghyun’s part. “i wish someone would hug me and tell me i’ve worked hard when i came home”. come here bby i’ll hug you you’ve worked so hard.
74. kang younghyun’s eyes.
75. him in a black cap and earrings and a white tee.a look.
76. “someone pls teach me how to tweet” 
77. him forgetting his own collab song with jimin on a live broadcast of ASC
78. him admitting in a concert that he’s felt like running away at times and he’s here only bc of the fans’ love for day6. im not crying u r
79. this one tumblr post of him growing up thru the years it’s like an ‘evolution of his smile’ post it brings me to tears
80. his habit of repeating something someone says if he finds it amusing
81. him opening a bottle of beer for dowoon
82. the look on his face when my days are singing man in a movie from start to finish without any percussion or bgm. an in a movie. a song he wrote. a b-side track.
83. the way he says bye to the camera swaying from side to side
84. when he was a total sport and jammed to b.i spitting freestyle rap in his face(WIN)
85. “noo. nooo he’s lying. i beat him i hit himm”
86. “YOU ARE MY DAY!”
87. the aaa falsetto at the end of that part^^
88. his verse at the beginning of “i would”. i think that’s what he’d sound like in the morning.
89. he’s just so humble. he literally writes the lyrics we all love so much but never misses an opportunity to commend everyone’s talent “i get the most ideas but jae has the best ideas”
90. “young k has maximum experience when it comes to girls. he knows what warms a woman’s heart”. lmao i agree
91. him singing “oh wonpil you play the piano so well” at the end of a pocket live
92. the fact that he was dating in canada without his parents’ knowledge and that’s where he gets the inspiration to write songs from. idk it’s adorable
93. his borderline jazz version of pouring in a pocket live. i hear you jazzy rhythmic finger snaps
94. his smirk when he does the “aah” part in “what can i do”
95. his awe and admiration for his dongsaengs like he’s genuinely in love with how talented the the stray kids boys are
96. “i ask people to call me young k bc as young k, i can make up for the inadequacies of brian. brian is weak.” this is why i often stick to young k now. yeah it’s fun to joke around but maybe he dOES feel more emotionally and mentally adequate as young k. maybe he feels more empowered or stronger and i don’t want to invalidate that. it takes courage to say what he said in front of a crowd.
97. just the stuff he’s gone through and how strong he is. he’s overcome so much. brave and powerful.
98. the fact that he doesn’t ever fake it with his lyrics, he remains true to his music and so does the rest of day6. stan day6.
99. he’s so interactive with fans and always wants to see us happy. you could say your fav idol does that too but this really IS why i love younghyun
100. the final reason is just because he lives. he lives despite all the obstacles that were probably thrown at him, and i respect and adore that. the way he makes us feel a little less lonely with words that he’s penned out of his own sorrow. the selflessness. i am lucky to listen to songs he has written and day6 has sung. he’s a beautiful human who deserves all ALL the love :’)
thank you for reading, my dudes
