TXT‘s Soobin has fans gushing non-stop about his wholesome friendship with THE BOYZ‘s Q, and it’s easy to see why.
The two idols have been friends for some time and are, in fact, extremely close. They hinted as much when Q became the first idol to be featured on TXT’s TikTok outside of the members.

Over time, Q and Soobin dropped plenty of crumbs about their friendship. Soobin and his member Huening Kai were seen at THE BOYZ’s concert, having taken flowers for Q and even sat close to his mother.

To no one’s surprise, Q later revealed that he had been the one who invited them.

Similarly, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the bracelet Soobin was once asked about was gifted by Q, who wore the same one in a different color.

Like ATEEZ‘s Wooyoung and LE SSERAFIM‘s Chaewon, Q took part in the recent documentary series Fill In The Blank, wherein famous K-Pop idols open up about their personal journeys.
Each episode sees the idol’s close family and friends talk about the idol in question, giving fans a deeper insight into their character by describing the items that most remind them of the idol. In Q’s episode, fans were somewhat surprised (and absolutely delighted) to see Soobin appear.
But that was nothing compared to how Soobin’s words made them feel. According to Soobin, Q (whom “he can’t help but love”) is like a textbook—someone who is strong and honest on the inside.

“the thing that comes to my mind when i think about q hyung is a textbook. it’s because, that hyung who is kind, cute, cool and i can’t help but love, is cautious, honest and so strong on the inside.”@TXT_members pic.twitter.com/Padkt8IjZb

In fact, one MOA commented that, even though they aren’t THE B, Soobin’s message for Q is enough to know what kind of person Q really is.
This is an underrated friendship in K-Pop, despite being one of the sweetest! With any luck, fans will be able to see much more of them in the future.
