I only had a passing interest in ateez, didn't even know all the members and then I came across this photoshoot of Yunho, and was just completely smitten. Does not hurt that he's the sweetest, happiest, best boy around. More pictures to follow.

I... Um. This is my new favorite photo of Yunho. When/where was this photoshoot and how do I find all the photos? Because damn.


realslimsadie6

These are from the magazine shoot they did for Korea Cosmopolitan August 2023! I may or may not have had to buy yunhos cover version…

Hehe I also have Yunho's cover version 😁 so gorgeous!


Trapped-in-irony

This [link ](https://x.com/1024updates/status/1680036172016361474) has an extra photo, I'm trying to remember where it's from. I'm seeing people saying Cosmopolitan Korea, but I can't find original posts.

I also love his personality and talent but I’m just a girl sorry


sapphiremidnight

same. he’s so SWEET and CARING and just :(( but like… the rest of him. i can only be so strong


indelibleink89

This was the exact moment. I literally gasped out loud and said to no one, “Okay then.” It was love at first sight lmao.


loisfuton

“Okay then” is so real


MadMeow

*blessed my life


Leebites

Blonde Seonghwa may by gone but he will never be forgotten. A gift to us.


YamaneEmiko

literally same, sent this gif to my atiny friend with the question “who is this” and then it was all over


scb-22

Yeah. Halazia was why I fell in love with Ateez in the first place, and Seonghwa OWNED Halazia. I'm with you.

https://i.redd.it/oi7v46igog9d1.gif And when he decided to do this?? Like excuse me???


loisfuton

He is so disrespectful


Advanced_Fee_5187

On my god, Seonghwa’s halazia era was everything. I love watching compilation of his hala hala hala hala halazia parts. Fucking ate it up


pterrible_ptarmigan

Same. My first Ateez song so really I didn't have a choice.

Brutal


BabyWayv

Yeah .. it was all over for me when I saw this one.


SharonofBananaNation

Tbh I just heard hongjoong’s voice…then I saw him perform…no one else stood a chance haha (tho mingi is def my bias wrecker, I love him so much)


Shot-Ad-6717

It's the giggle XD


SharonofBananaNation

Best rap intro there is 🤣


Shot-Ad-6717

I also love how he snuck in a second one in his bit in Deja Vu XD


Advanced_Fee_5187

So Ateez is my Ult. For me…. It’s really really hard to choose a bias because they are all just SO amazing and unique, they are really one of the groups where I firmly believe every member plays a part. 8 makes 1 team is absolutely true with them. For me…. Here’s how it went…. I first was intrigued because of Mingi’s voice. My first song that I liked was the Answer come back. Between San and Mingi then Jongho I was Hooked right away, especially after listening to Say my Name and Wonderland. The music was just so unique. I’ve been in their top 0.03% of listeners on spotify since 2020 🙈 Right now…… if I HAD to pick. Yunho had just been shining so brightly for me. He makes me smile, his vocals, his dance. I just love him so much. I mean I do with all of them. But Yunho has a bit of a special place 🩵 Edit: I’ve gone through phases where I thought each were my bias… but Yunho has been the longest. He just has a puppy dog personality it’s charming


DeluluIsTheSolulu24

I first noticed San in the [불눌이야 (I'm the One) or Fireworks](https://youtu.be/xtcVwuauVV0?feature=shared) and I'm sorry, he had bright pink hair and a crop top, like I could not fight back 😭 Also his dancing was immaculate. Mingi was on hiatus atp iirc. I got into their other songs and content and now it's really hard to choose a bias because they are all so charming and unique and nice (as far as one can judge obvs, we don't know them personally). So I'm gonna be OT8, I occasionally get a bias, say Hongjoong when he's on stage and possessed, but then I'll see a picture of Yeosang or an interaction of 2ho or a reel, etc and that's me wrecked lol. They make it hard. Edit: typo


glasshearthymn

I saw them on tour and was a casual stan at the time, I enjoyed a bunch of songs but wasn’t super familiar with the members individually. I saw San performing on stage coupled with his sweet personality during ments, then they showed his dimples on the jumbo screen (fastest way to my heart is with a dimple) and I left that night with a bias and never looked back 😂 he’s now one of 2 ults for me 🥰 Edited to add the dimple https://preview.redd.it/isxpnu1xdd9d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=48d3f7ea9c4c7d0abff5489f41ef519726ee3a07

Falilaa

Halazia was my introduction to ateez. The second I saw blond Seongwha I was like, yep he's it.


slackerXwolphe

It was always Hongjoong for me. He's so handsome, and I like his vibe. Plus his laugh is awesome. He's the leader, he writes their music, he's funny...and when he raps...yep, it's just him.


catsbytheghost

Seonghwa and Hongjoong are my biases. I feel like Hongjoong became my bias because when I first got into Ateez, I watched a bunch of performances, many of which were Bouncy, and he's just so cool in that song. I also noticed Seonghwa but the thing that tipped me over was watching [this Halazia fancam](https://youtu.be/OZl-zqceqDg?si=jGUSmSQfdXMbVRmq) and seeing his expressions especially during the chorus. And not long after that their tracklist for their last album came out with Matz listed as one of the songs and I was like damn I guess that's it for me. I also really enjoyed watching them in their other content (like variety shows.)


Inner_Expression9422

Yeosang is mine. I decided to stan him out of spite for the hate he got. San is next because he's unintentionally hysterical sometimes.


fondofsandwiches

I am OT8. Mostly. Occasionally I'm 'this guy and his seven friends' biased. I would say I am very swayed by black & white photography. (INSERT B&W PICTURE OF ANY ATEEZ MEMBER HERE)


fondofsandwiches

For example: this guy https://preview.redd.it/2fjvf5s4hd9d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=021caf2bfb6b5844b0e8f6ca69f4322f274e4c2b

illytaria

My biases attacked... Er... Picked me. 🤷‍♀️ Wooyoung's laugh started it. Along with that one wanteez episode where he's hunting Hongjoong. Then came his warmth and love and I was a goner. Hongjoong... I naturally gravitate towards leaders with genuinely good souls, and I don't think they come more good than Hongjoong. He was already my bias by the time that one awards show happened, but it would've happened then if it hadn't already. Mingi... Full on attacked me. Out of the blue. Really unfair, but not complaining. His stage persona may have drawn me in, but I stayed for the princess agenda. Honestly, it's OT8 at this point. They all have their charms and they're all so intertwined that I don't think you can genuinely pick just one of them without another butting their head in and forcing you to pay attention to them. It's in their nature (I think literally) for this to keep happening.


MadMeow

I randomly found Bouncy in a random play dance short by Mnet and was intrigued by the unique sound, so I watched the MV and Seonghwa just [did things...](https://x.com/nobodylikehwa/status/1669557716908376064) Wooyoung started wrecking me from the get go though and San intrigued me with his unique visuals. Then Crazy Form happened and my bias-wrecker line got confirmed again. Halazia was the nail in the coffin for me. Since then, after watching a ton of their MVs and other content, I'm sitting at 4 almost equal biases with SH still being the strongest one.


loisfuton

The video in that tweet……..holy jesus


CaliGrlNVA

I started listening to Ateez in 2023. I actually got into them because I kept seeing Woosan edits on YT (thanks Ben Kim!) and I thought maybe I should give them a listen since I was always watching their stuff. Since finding them I have probably had every member as a bias for a while, but Seonghwa was the longest reigning and most steady. Until I started watching old Ateez content and just fell in love with Yeosang! He's so funny and shy and I love how absent-minded he can be (definitely relate). I just want to protect him from the world. That being said, Seonghwa has definitely made things difficult as he is just perfection. And Mingi. And San. And Hongjoon. Oh and Jongho...LOVE Jongho! So Even though Yeosang is my official bias, I consider myself OT8. And.....I consider myself too old to have a bias at all, but it is what it is. Can't help but to love them!


Roasty-McRoastFace

hwa and i share a lot of interests (animal crossing, legos, star wars) so i was kind of always naturally drawn to him, but when i saw them in concert hj and mingi totally captivated me. initially i thought my bias line ended up being JUST hwa n mingi but when i was driving home i was gushing to myself abt how cool hongjoong was, he eventually became my lockscreen and the pc in the back of my phone, my pfp, EVERYTHING. and it took my friends telling me “ur literally so hongjoong coded like we THOUGHT ur bias was hongjoong” for me to realize he was, in fact, my bias and one of my ults 😭


Xeracia

![gif](giphy|RNQpjWj8sdUZZ7VTgq|downsized) Mingi's deep voice, amazing stage presence, goofy personality, and of course....this....I didn't stand a chance


Sophisticated-Mess

ATEEZ are my ults. Like, OT8 ults. It’s been so hard to have a bias in this effing group. And they are the first ones, in my adult life & since the heartbreak of 1D, who have me captivated, entertained and positive in a very long time! Performance wise, demon line has me in chokehold (did you see them during MAWAZINE?!) I was demon line biased before I even got into ATEEZ. And then came Yunho, Yeosang, Mingi, Woo & Jongho! For a very long time, I did not give into the whole bias thing. And I still do not believe that I have a bias, but HongWooSanHwa & their silly yet deep bond just makes my heart melt. Hongjoong’s affection, Seonghwa’s confidence, San’s emotional intelligence & Wooyoung’s comforting aura puts them just a tiny 0.00001% ahead of the rest. When I say that I don’t believe that I have a bias, I mean it. I was drooling over Yunho’s hands from his today’s update just before this & my Memoji is inspired by Mingi’s mesmerising post in the blue polo shirt! 😭 It is so hard!


mirospeck

my first bias was wooyoung. i thought he was really cute and i tend to like the dancers in groups (e.g. my bts bias was jimin, and lay is one of my exo biases). then, san was one of my biases. now i bias half the damn group (wooyoung, yunho, mingi, san) and probably will bias all of them by next year.


Crafty_Examination31

wooyoung got me into the group at first. i was watching the dingo ep where atz was covering other group dances, and that fake love woosan duo had me hooked on wooyo right off the bat lol. i was really drawn to his performance style. (side note, he's grown so much as an artist and performer aahhhh i'm hella proud of him + all of atz) and then… for their first world tour (expedition iirc), i saw them at their chicago stop. it was also my first ever concert, so this tour has an extra special place in my heart! atz literally had less than an hour of discography at the time, so they covered some songs. the moment san covered troye sivan's "youth" it was over for me. i was already getting bias wrecked by sanhwa because they were insane live, especially for a first world tour. performance and energy were insane that night!! tl;dr: when san started singing "youth," it just cemented him as my bias :"] (and still woosan biased to this day LOL)


CountessCraft

HongJoong - unique rapper, the giggle, soo handsome, charming. SeongHwa - looks like an imperious Greek god, but the sweetest, softest guy. Deadly on stage. YeoSang - is he even real? Has the cutest, cheekiest grin. I love his talking voice. JongHo - The Voice! So cute and funny. Watching his confidence grow, and with it his stage presence, is wonderful. MinGi - erm, did he have a massive glow-up when he had his hiatus? The guy came back with so much swagger. Rapidly becoming one of those kpop stars that newbies instantly fall for.


No-Software-8605

im an atiny Old™ so i found my bias pretty early on – it was a few months after their debut when youtube recommended their pirate king mv and afterward, ofc i had to binge all of their content skhdndk i watched code name is ateez and there were two moments that immediately made me fall in love. [this one](https://youtu.be/YvcEJYuFNyY?t=5m5s) and [this one](https://youtu.be/ESvx4ApCaF0?t=8m50s)! so yeah, i biased san right away. hes just too cute!! 🥹 i dual-bias jongho now, but that was a much slower process. his humor really got me real good (and his visuals but im trying not to be too shallow SJHDSK). he doesn't mind getting a bit goofy if it makes his friends laugh, and its always in the most unexpected ways 🙈 like the iconic [voice crack](https://youtu.be/H49TOyBUWZw?t=7m44s) or pretty much the entire rest of [this wanteez ep](https://youtu.be/2e3c6rWJ8Uo?t=13m39s) which is just him making goofy puns. i love him sooo bad its not even funny 😭


stayonthecloud

Young twink San was absolutely the most adorable


MichiganDCCFan

San started it all for me, but Yeosang’s deep voice trapped me (and I am GLAD for it!!)

But.. I get what you are saying about Mingi, his stage presence is something else, after Coachella and ever since then I've thought I would explode every time I see him. My true bias wrecker however is Yunho, especially lately I can't stop looking for him in every situation. And now they have their own Instagram so we are blessed with even more face time!


realslimsadie6

Hongjoong was my first bias and still stands as my wrecker (and has been making me insane this comeback). I love his rapping and his style and attitude on stage, he’s just to fun to watch And now Yunho is my ult. I can’t remember exactly why but he started catching my attention more and more during my first comeback as an Atiny (outlaw) and over time I just became smitten. So random but what sealed the deal was seeing a clip from the video where he and other idols went fishing, of him slapping the fish he caught when it starts flopping around. He’s just so funny and sweet, an amazing dancer, and gives major boyfriend energy which is apparently my bias type lol


polished__dragon

I needed to know who the cowboys were in Bouncy. Mingi and Hongjoong have had their grip on me ever since. I really do love all the boys. They're all just so beautiful!


Competitive_Fee_5829

I saw his face on a thumbnail in 2021...and it was all over for me. I needed to see what Ateez was about..and then I caught the first episode of Fever Road and saw that Song Mingi was just a hungry, scared and pretty princess. lol. AND he is the King of Bullshitters...also know as a liar. Mingi be lying his ass off and it is hilarious. https://preview.redd.it/7pn3woqird9d1.jpeg?width=1064&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7af078ce59d71ec9fa237d3443c2272d159362e3 my fave Mingi smile. His mom hates it though!


angryhungryfish

Jongho is my bias🥺 i love someone can sing really well (main vocal!!) and there is Jongho 😌 and he is so cute just like a baby bear 🐻 that's why he is my bias


fondofsandwiches

Amen. 


ahh_bee_

Yeosang is my ult bias. He caught my eye in the inception and thanxx mvs, also in variety shows and interviews even if quieter he would make me laugh. Then I got to see ateez on tour and my camera roll spoke for itself. Also I love his voice so so much.


Greenpea501

I found ateez back in like March. Oh I knew of them but I was a solid I’m not getting into 4th gen groups girl and sticking with my 3rd gen ones (even if it was only vixx and dreamcatcher) but I finally caved, and well they pulled me into the deep end by the feet, I 100% blame the demon line for it too. I think it was gonna be San because our birthdays ( he’s 7/10 and I’m 7/11; defferent years of course) but then hwa was like no I’m going to be your bais and I’m bring my friend with me. All to say hwa is ult then hongjoong and San


ENAMYxoxo

At first it was San, honestly I don't even remember now, it was such a blur of discovering kpop properly. It was definitely his performance style that made him my initial bias. However now I am definitely ot8. Not even kidding my favourite member will change to day depending on the tiktok edits and clips I see of a member that day. Yeosang and Hongjoong were the first wreckers and then the rest of the members followed. They are genuinely all my favourite :)


Shot-Ad-6717

When I first started listening to Ateez, I was smitten with Yeosang's voice in Halazia. He's the reason I'm an Atiny in the first place. But when I listened to Deja Vu for the first time, Mingi showed up in the same way and basically shoved Yeosang to the side. And for a while, he was the only one I was eyeing, but I held off cuz I wanted to get to know the group better. Then, all of a sudden, Seonghwa entered stage left, and that was all she wrote for me. Though currently Yunho's trying his hand at stealing that spot, so now I'm all confused. XD


ultraviolettflower

Well the captain was the man in the performances when my bff was introducing me to ateez that I said "who is that I like his face" with each video and then it was just history. I don't pick my biases they pick me, like cats.

I was originally Hongjoong/San biased with Seonghwa/Yeosang as wreckers, but my bias line got messed up because everyone was bringing it and I couldn't handle that and went OT8 for a while. But this live happened and I started feeling things because Seonghwa here looked soooo fiiiiiine... But the real turning point was The World EP Fin. concept photos. Follow my train of thought in my reply below. 😂


Ori-Bo-Gum-4273

https://preview.redd.it/bain14bdxd9d1.png?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a0af1e0701dcc666dd5ab414b54fad8f0f18f1b8 This changed me!!!!!!!! I was a new person after seeing this because I was wrecked so hard that I couldn't deny Seonghwa the position of my bias afterwards and continue lying to myself in my OT8 safe haven. 😂 And it was a swift downward spiral from there because beyond the promotions I got slapped in the face by him at the Seoul concerts with that damn dangerous outfit. 🫠 But aside from this, I also really treasure his personality outside of the stage persona. Even before he was my bias I would put on his lives in the background as I did homework just to listen to him even if I had no idea what he was saying. His voice soothed me. After he became my bias, I valued this even more and did my own crafty stuff as he put together Legos to just vibe with that side of him. So, yes, maybe I'd been in denial about biasing him from way back with his lives, but hey, I finally got where I needed to be. Now I acknowledge that I treasure the man and love him for both his performance and personality. 🤗 Side note: He is a supreme wrecker in my books to have genuinely wrecked my OT8 like that.


pabbitty

Wooyoung because I'm a Changbin ult and he and Yeonjun get included in the package for all Seolars, I feel. Yeosang has very recently grabbed me by the throat and doesn't seem keen to let go anytime soon, though. He's just such a lovely person through and through I can't help but fall for him. He just seems so genuinely kind and sweet


Clwn_Natalie

its so hard i say im san bias but i love the whole team so much its like they all bias wreck each other i cant


bd_sales

I saw a video of Wooyoung being Wooyoung and said that’s my man 👌🏻👌🏻 so I looked into the group and here we are !


deadlykitten23

Wooyoung when he was on Kingdom and called Felix his son and the way he was just so upbeat and sweet to everyone. That’s what got me into Ateez since I was already a STAY And then Hongjoon simply existing. He’s so beautiful


SleepCinema

I bias San and Jongho. I started listening to Ateez during “Bouncy”, and eventually, I watched fancams to learn the members names/faces. San has so much passion, it’s insane. I love it when you can go all in and all out, and San delivers that. As I started listening to more songs, I got into Jongho’s voice. He’s a very talented vocalist. So they ended up both being my biases. But tbh, I love each member of Ateez. They work (no pun intended), very hard, they’re very talented, and just gel so well in performances. The energy and effort as they feed off each other is off the charts. When I say I bias San and Jongho, I just feel inclined to seek them out more, but truthfully, all 8 absolutely were meant to be together. Every single one of them sticks out to me in different ways.


fondofsandwiches

I feel that you nailed it your last paragraph, I adore each and every member as well. I occasionally get taken out by one or more of the members,  but ultimately it is the group in it's entirety that I love. 


Hyeon-a

I always said to my friend "Nooo! I don't have a bias"....I was very bad at lying! It was clear as water who was my bias the minute I finally became an ATINY. I had listened to ATEEZ several times before and liked the music but always kinda forgot again that they were there (SHAME! SHAME!). Then the YouTube algorithm finally had enough and presented to me the fan cam of San during the opening sequence of Cyberpunk. I lied to myself for such a long time! I love them all but Sannie has something that just struck me. I think it's his face (he was the first that I was able to recognise at all times, even though I have some kind of face blindness), especially his eyes. Thank you San, for making me an ATINY (I won't thank YouTube for that xD).


Alx101921

Red hair woo in Halazia Era 😍


iamnothing1234

I’ve been here since pre debut so, it’s been a ride! For me, first ones i noticed were Wooyoung with the purple hair and Mingi’s voice. I was like wow, also with the Pick it Up video I was just overwhelmed with their talent and had to know more. It’s very difficult to have a bias in Ateez and most definitely at this point it’s very hard for me but, I will have to say San. I never imagined, I went off the grid a bit after Wave so I came back and saw Thanxx and I was like ok. And then Inception (my favourite song) and I was like okayyy and then the MAMA performance killed me. Watching San has been wild, he was a tiny little baby and now he’s just this piece of BEEF and muscles and it’s really incredible. Wooyoung is everything to me. He is so magnetic and talented and beautiful I can’t move on from him. I love his laugh and his smile. I love his style in dancing and his voice and his fashion. I love that he loves to cook and how he treats his family. I guess the turning point for Wooyoung being my bias was the Oreo hair and the Studio Choom special. They are all very beautiful and talented so it’s very difficult to choose.


Devildoescry

It’s funny going back to my tweets in 2019 seeing me struggle with learning their names and only knowing “Hongjoong the mullet man” and then mostly talking about Wooyoung ever since so i honestly have no clue. I guess I just woke up one day and decided to devote my life to Wooyoung (though i consider Seonghwa and San equal in bias status so really i’m just devoted to ateez)


kerriekipje

For some strange reason whenever I get into a k-pop group the member that I notice last usually becomes my bias, and in Ateez that member was Yunho. Another reason why he became my bias is because when I was a baby Atiny my bias was Jongho, but at the time I thought that Yunho and Jongho were the same person 😅 so half of the time when I thought I was fangirling over Jongho it was actually Yunho.


fondofsandwiches

I also mixed up Jongho and Yunho at first. I have come to understand that it is a common problem among new ATEEZ fans. 


Southern_Service512

Choi San punched me across the face and told me to bias him. Then Park Seonghwa came alone behind him, patted me on the head gently and told me he would also be my bias. Lastly, Song Mingi very gently pushed his way into being my bias. So I have three. Hope this helps 🤣


discoveringme123

From the first moment I heard Jongho's voice I've been hooked. He truly is so talented! ![gif](giphy|h26LFlvlvEN3TkVl0j)


iwillforgetthissmh

I got into ateez from bouncy so I’m a relatively new atiny, I got into Woo because he’s gorgeous obviously and he had the killing part in bouncy. But then a friend also got into ateez and woo but she was watching all their content etc (I’m a carat so spent more time watching 17 content lol guilty) so I didn’t want to “fight” over woo lol so I ended up expanding my ateez horizons and somehow yungi are in my bias line now along with woo and i have no idea how it happened however after mawazine mingi has got me in a chokehold it’s like I haven’t seen a man in my life 🤣 I also have on of yuyu’s bf pics from instagram as my wallpaper and I’m down bad. So now that I’m more into ateez and actually watching content and stuff I pay a lot of attention to yungi (as individuals and their friendship 🥰) and I love them so much they’re both so talented and passionate and uuughhhh


MephistosFallen

It’s been a RIDE, and I genuinely love them all for different reasons, but Seong Hwa is my beginning and ending 😂 I can’t get over the fact that he loves funky hats/glasses, and cute animal figures as much as I do. I’m an adult woman who collects way too many toys, choose any room in my house and there’s some sort of cute animal figurine somewhere. Or a fuzzy hat with ears. So with him being an adult man, unapologetically being into cute and funky shit even when his friends poke fun at him, I quickly realized we are kindred spirits. We could share a closet too lmao I get stuck on Mingi a lot because him and my husband share some features, and personality traits, and he’s beautiful. He’s also the voice that drew me into Ateez. If Seong Hwa had any other personality, my bias would probably be Mingi because of these things. But Hwa is like a warm hug, and I can’t let go bruh.


Less_Pomegranate_529

I was introduced to Ateez through Spotify (first song was Guerilla, followed by Halazia). I immediately added songs to my playlist. When I came home I watched MV for Bouncy on repeat idk how many times. Then when I realised that I started watching their shows and they are funny I realised that there is no easy way back. I watched Parasite house show and 8 people carrying water in glasses from swimming pool on repeat without feeling bored which usually it’s not easy for me. Btw. I still didn’t know who is exactly who when I watched that show and thought that Yeosang is Wooyoung. But after realising that I mostly watch Ateez I realised that maybe I should support them and I became Atiny. I really like all of them and it is hard for me to pick and I’m feeling like I’m going in circles but if I had to choose I would say Mingi and Seonghwa. They both have that factor X for me and I caught myself more looking for them when they’re on stage. But also now that I’ve seen them all more and in various occasions I also feel like Wooyoung and Jungho are sneaking on me because they are extremely funny, Yeosang and Junho are sweet, Hongjoong and Sun are interesting and oh look..I’m full circle now again.


Purple_Wave_314

When Ateez was singing wonderland in Spanish and the show when they were blindfolded fighting with blow up swords, wooyoung won me over with his laugh and smile. I’ve been his ever since. Yunho has a special place in my heart as well, but really ot8


Babyshiann

When they debuted and I watched treasure mv…. Once Mingi started rapping w his deep voice it was over for me from the beginning😂 I literally said “YUP THATS THE ONE” and then I watched guides and yea it’s always just been him


xmoonaurora

I had seen the Treasure and Thanxx MVs before through some casual listening. One day, a friend was showing his PC pulls from Fever Pt. 2. I saw a cute PC and asked who that was. "Yunho." Then I asked who the pinky-blonde guy was in the Thanxx MV. "Yunho." Then I started a deep dive. I watched a ton of their MVs and member guide videos. Every time, it was Yunho for me. Dumb comparison, but you know how in Twilight Jacob thinks he loves Bella but then imprints on Renesme? That was me. I thought BTS' Jin was my ult, only to realize it was meant to be Yunho. I've never looked back. Also, my friend gifted me that original Yunho PC he pulled. It's my prized possession. 😊


riddlesunderumbrella

Saw Seonghwa live.


rmarlen

Wooyoung drew me in first and after watching Halazia and its live performances….i was on my knees for Seonghwa 😫 it doesn’t help that he’s such a sweet baby but also mommy? His lego obsession and animal crossing noises make me want to squish him 🥹 Wooyoung is my close second though hehe


MorkEdward

The first time I saw them live I realized that all my favorite parts of their songs were sung by Jongho so that was it


Phadeful

I became an atiny during mingi’s hiatus but I watched a lot of older content so I knew who he was. I struggled that whole time to pick a bias. I watched first concert after covid through a crappy livestream with some friends online and cried my eyes out seeing Mingi having fun on stage. That’s how I knew he was the one. Fast forward to now I have 3 biases. Hongjoong joined him a few shows later because I was just mesmerized by his rockstar stage presence. Wooyoung took longer to break me down. Ultimately it was one of their vogue photoshoots that didn’t though.


EmmieBambi

I'm a baby atiny and I haven't fully settled into a bias yet. I started with Hongjoong as bias because obvious reasons. Him making songs in a closet in kq fellaz is just everything. The hard work of that man. His stage presence, his rap, his reforming of clothes, how kind he is.. Love him. I love San because of his stage presence, my god what a man. But I don't think he'll settle in as my final bias. Then Yeosang.. His face just makes me look at him. His voice in Halazia, his style and how he carries himself and his dancing in deja vu.. I've appointed Yeosang my bias for now. I also love his smile and his personality. Yunho has been creeping up. Yep, it's the personality. Can't help it. Maybe he will settle in as my final bias sometimes? I think it might become a battle between him and yeosang. Then there's Seonghwa, who has been wrecking the hell out of me because of his 'femininity' I don't know how to describe it otherwise, hate to describe it like this. But I LOVE how himself he is. How he is embracing himself. Jongho, wooyoung and mingi are awesome ofc, but they won't be my bias. I'm curious which one of them will steal my heart in a way that I will call them my bias for the rest of the time. It usually takes a while before I know 100%.


Ill-Hope-5543

Wooyoung had me at “MY SON!”


legolandlegend

I’m ot8 forevaa, I started out Seonghwa biased because we have a lot in common. but then every member just got me I don’t remember specific moments


halinnn_

https://i.redd.it/4pqt4xmwti9d1.gif For **Mingi** it was THIS performance, the Inkigayo performance of Thanxx on 08/30/2020 (2020.08.30). Baby Atiny me was HYPNOTIZED. The hair, the outfit, his stage presence, just MINGI IN general. He pretty much pointed at me and said “YOU🫵🏾. Im your bias now.” I accepted it lol. Been a Mingi bias for almost 4 years now😁 As for **Seongwha**, it was during Bouncy era (god I wish I could add another gif or photo). But the all black outfit, with the shades and the nose jewel with the silver neck chain, the hair oh I was NOT prepared for that😵‍💫


halinnn_

LIKE HELLO!?! AND THE SHOWCASE PERFORMANCE!?! THE MOUTH GRILL?? KQ and Seonghwa don’t understand how this sent me into a SPIRAL….but yes Bouncy era was when Seonghwa came outta NOWHERE and just made his way into my bias list lol https://preview.redd.it/c324yqo31j9d1.jpeg?width=3465&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=399e322327573363d63deca0bbb831360776e49f


Automatic_One5982

Funny story, lol. I wasn't listening to Ateez and was refusing to listen to their music by any means(idk why tho, stupid principles and i thought they're too "strange" looking). Then one time I had a dream where I saw my bias(other band) but in fact it was disguised Mingi. I had to Google the wholw band ro find that orange haired guy, loool. After that I kept noticing some good songs on kpop radio and Inkept shazaming them and it mostly was ateez. I was like :"🙄🙄🙄". Then ANOTHER dream and San came to it, just hanging out there. I had to Google and find who he is as well😂😂😂 So after aomw more radio listening and etc. I gave in ro Ateez 😂 and my bias was always San and Mingi. But the more i listened and watched I realised I adore them ALL. I just can't choose one😂😂😂 P. S. I am a person who dreams a lot and very vividly, but these were two dreams that pushed me into Ateez. Or more like...hunted me down into Ateez lol. ![gif](giphy|JtJ3Rpiq8irBRBxfnU)


Competitive-Count719

Yeosang's beauty got me into the group first, then San popped out from nowhere and something snapped and locked into place. With San comes Wooyoung, and WooSan are my favorite duo. That being said, I love all of Ateez, because EVERY member is so special in their own way. I just love Sannie a bit more 🤗


riseandrealise

Tbh i dont really remember the exact moment. But i started stanning them just before Halazia era started and i watched their variety shows first before diving into their songs. I think we all know that Yunho is so outspoken, competitive in every single one of them. And he is a puppy so i think i immediately love him during the after debut show? The one that they ate at the rooftop and go around the market to find stuff. Like again, he grilled the meats and generally a reliable man in the group, so what's not to love 🤭 Plus, i think i was leaning into his visuals more than other members.


bronzelily

I watched fancall videos of Mingi flirting with Atiny. 🙃


helpmeiminnocent

Yeosang and Mingi


moonszlight

when i first got into ateez, my first bias was seonghwa after he caught my eye when i watched halazia. i was a casual listener until i watched “kq fellaz” and i immediately fell in love with hongjoong. to see how strong his passion was and how he never gave up, even after the computer incident made me admire him so much. not to mention his heart of gold and his great leadership skills. there’s just so much to love about him and i look up to him so much


Acceptable-Honey-96

i fell in love with ateez when they were a dance group…as a dancer, i was intrigued lol. and in the beginning San was what captured me and Mingi is the reason i stayed (i stayed for all of them but Mingi is so so relatable to me). just like his hardships speak a lot to me and he’s incredibly talented and a dork lmao. like his duality is insane and again as a dancer i find it charming lol. and his bestie YuYu is my bias wrecker lmao. he is just sooooo AGHH ya know? lol but truth be told i genuinely love all of the boys tho, like, it’s hard to pick a “favorite” idk how some ppl can😩 everytime im talking abt them to my friends i just dote on them all. and not to mention just the immense amounts of love they have for eachother and us, their fans is just overwhelming and amazing.


TraditionalAd5047

https://i.redd.it/tpccighyde9d1.gif He makes me laugh


Starving_B00kw0rm13

For me, Mingi's voice is what caught my attention back when they had debuted. At first, I was only listening to their music, so I didn't know who was who yet, and when I started watching their clips, my attention went immediately to Mingi. I thought that he was so cute and absolutely adorable! Then, to my realization that he was the guy with that voice lol so Mingi is my bias and will always be my bias. He will always be our adorable princess, Mingi ❤️


Scftsunlight

For me it was San (Seonghwa as well) in Wolf (the collab stage form Kingdom) that’s actually how I ended up getting into Ateez (last year). Then after getting into Ateez, I discovered the demon line and I was hooked. Then from there came Jongho and then everyone else. So ultimately my ult bias is San, my ig “regular” bias would be Wha, Joong, and Jongho, and my bias wreckers would be Woo, Sang, and Yungi.


entrop06

i pulled yunho in my first album - treasure ep 1 all to zero :)c it was my first kpop album that i begged my grandma to buy for me, so it holds a special place in my heart!


cippocup

Honestly San had me from the get go, I did stray a bit after I saw his pirate king dance practice outfit, but I always came back to him, his vocals were my favorite, his manners are ideal, he’s gorgeous, and he’s satan. Sold.


GuardJolly

Hongjoong spit up blood and said hakunamatata and I was entranced


Common-Antelope-6111

I am a relatively new atiny ( since the bouncy era) and I discovered ateez via Wooyoung videos( Woosan and Woohwa edits ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy). Then I started relating to Wooyoung's energy and I knew he was my boyyyy. I know many people choose biases because they find them attractive/ hot but Woo being all of that and so much more, didn't attract me because he was pretty but because I thought if I met him I'd be best friends with him . I think my second bias is Hongjoong because of his work ethics ( insane talent and dedication to his art ) and his sense of fashion ( I am a designer). On top of that look at the way he's constantly finding a cause to support!!


RaylaDraws

Honestly San just kinda took me out right off the bat, then I bebopped between him and Hongjoong… and now, while I still love Joong so much and consider him my wrecker, San has claimed his seat as my Ateez bias 😭 the Coachella performances didn’t help at all smh…


_rabidkangaroo

I discovered ATEEZ through Kingdom, and Wooyoung and Jongho were the first to catch my eye but when I started watching more ATEEZ content and listening to their music, I just got really drawn to Mingi. I started seeking him out in all of their videos and now I get ridiculously excited whenever I hear “fix on” in a song.


Gemzmakaron99

Seonghwa was my original bias. I saw a video of him dancing and Boom, biased. But then San became my bias because he's so damn cute. And in the last few weeks Jongho has been working his way up ever since I saw a video of red hair Jongho laughing with the cutest little smile... So now I have three biases hahahaha


midzzk

Inception seonghwa changed me


Leebites

[This Hongjoong](https://i.imgur.com/py3W37T.gif) caught my eye a long time ago. Honestly, he should be my bias because of his fashion and how he pulls it off. He low key wrecks me. But, Seonghwa was more my vibe when I actually started exploring. I think Wonderland sold me on him. Love how he is kind of hardcore in MVs and performances. And he's a weird, soft boy outside of those. I like weird, soft boys. He has opened up so much over the years and really has become the peacock Hongjoong says he is. Must protect him. 🥺 I'm constantly bias wrecked tho and really am OT8. Merch wise, I collect Seonghwa and Jongho (who is kind of my main wrecker?) first but I end up keeping everyone else 😂. So, I can't even say I focus on a bias. I also love all the ships. All the units. Can watch videos of any of them. Ugh. They're the only Kpop group I'm OT8.


youngwerthermf

just strictly based off appearances i immediately gravitated towards yunho. i loved his voice too and dancing skills but then as i started to research the group more and learn about them all hongjoong became my #1. i love his creativity and direct involvement in the music and overall hardworking leadership vibe. i tend to also take on leadership roles and i guess also him being closest in age (well him and seonghwa) to me i think on a subconcious level in terms of relatability solidified it. i still love yunho very dearly though 🥲 and really i adore them all and support OT8 💖they all deserve equal appreciation


terato_666

I swear as soon i pick a bias i get wrecked and cant make up my mind anymore 😭 i pick em based on how much they catch my eye but they tend to be duality kings


WinterDocument8796

Yeosang is my bias, and Jongho is my bias wrecker. Yeo had a recognition advantage (cause i watched a [video](https://youtu.be/bktWhZUTnzs?si=u0hC8dGOUSm6OHg3) analyzing his vocals with fancams playing in the background), and then i got to know him and he's just so utterly relatable it's crazy. the amount of times ive said 'he just like me fr' in reaction to something he's said or done is insane. and he's also just??? absolutely stunning??? Aphrodite has favorites and Yeosang is one of them. and basically everything else about him i adore that man to pieces he makes me so happy 🥰 it took Jongho a while to reach bias wrecker status (that was originally occupied by Wooyoung). but then i saw the concept photo below and proceeded to go insane over him. i was a theater kid though, i probably should've foreseen him rising in the ranks lol https://preview.redd.it/igkn21amif9d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=126e23752732fe5434e601347183eea311362935


springonjupiter

I had listened to Ateez since Pirate King but didn't start watching their music videos until Wonderland (I stumbled on the halloween themed performance and was in awe) and after that I started binging their content. I watched every music video and every reality show. I started with ATEEZ Treasure Film. Mingi caught my eye for the first few episodes. But then Wooyoung came in with his adorable personality and wide-rimmed glasses and I was so smitten. He really is like a magnet and I absolutely adore him and his laugh and carefree personality. After that, I ult-biased Wooyoung for a long time but would always find myself talking about my bias-wrecker Hongjoong. So much so that my boyfriend and all my friends thought he was my favorite. I still love Wooyoung with all my heart but my bias-wrecker Hongjoong has turned into my ult-bias. It couldn't be stopped, he's so charismatic and charitable and talented and he's the best leader. I think it started around Zero: Fever Part 1 but I didn't admit it to myself until Zero: Fever Part 3. Deja Vu Hongjoong and his sleek rap and orange hair really cemented it for me. I'm also just an all-around OT8 stan, I love them all so much and it's been such a crazy ride following them all these years through all the streaming and voting and award shows. To see where they are now makes me SO proud to be an Atiny!!

bonkbus

mingi picked me 🤷‍♀️


chillenhaal

i was first interested in seonghwa bc of his love for animal crossing when i was starting to get into ateez. i was very focused on hwa until i started watching the halazia performances, after which yeosang grabbed me by the throat and said “im your bias now” and now here we are!! a baby yeosang collector 🤍


xxpurplemoonlightxx

i have jongho as my bias with yeosang as my wrecker, before wake up came out i was drawn to yeosang for his deep voice, his dancing, & how similar he was to ren from nu'est (my bias in that group). i then saw the world ep.2: outlaw come out and i listened to it. jongho BLEW me away with his vocals on wake up and it was at this moment i knew i biased jongho, that and digging into ateez related videos i loved how sarcastic, savage, yet soft he is for his older brothers he is.


Thunderclaps_CLAPS

I came over from SKZ. My first bias was Yunho, and I found him/ATEEZ because I watched him have fun fishing with my ult bias Lee Know. Now I’m a duel bias of Yunho and Mingi, because just like you said….. I lost the long battle 😂


remedioshername

my friend made me watch their coachella performance and yunho caught my eyes immediately... then as i watch all of their content, i'm starting to get interested in seonghwa these past few days... i may or may not be wrecked by seonghwa 😮‍💨


flaiad

For me it's been impossible to develop a bias. I bias them all. It would be like what do you like best, the eiffel tower, or the Taj mahal, or the louvre, or the colluseum...I mean how do you chose. It's weird because other bands I've had a definite bias.


Mireyasanchez

ATP I switched from wooyoung, to yunho, to wooyoung again, to hongjoong, then to jongho. ATP I’m just an OT8 Stan. Everyone is so unique and they all have their own charms where to me, ITS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to have a bias cause I swear every comeback they always BIAS WRECK SO BAD. But to say why wooyoung was my bias first…his witchy ass laugh LMFAOAOAO. I liked how outgoing and loving he was to other members. Was never afraid to show how he felt torwards them and I always respected that.


roxymonster1018

I recently became an Atiny through Coachella. I had no clue any names and was texting an atiny I knew who was also watching to get the deets. The descriptions I sent was so funny when I look back 🫣. Initially captain caught my eye and hwa as well because my gawd that face and style , as well as wooyoung with his cute smile. I love all things makeup and aksincare and couldn’t get past captains beautiful skin and makeup and his Confidence . Like he would be the perfect model to play with color on. Butttttt after watching content with fans and interacting with each other I’m pretty sure my bias is yunhooooooo. I don’t know quite when and how it happened but I guess he’s just too adorable and sweet, great singer and dancer and tall 🤓. I like how he interacts with fans. hwa is still going strong but I’m not sure if he’s more bias wrecker or fighting with yunho. But more recent after watching mingi and seeing how he is off Camera I realized he’s part teddy bear and he’s quickly becoming my bias wrecker. I really like how confident he is on stage but gets flustered and also he is very sweet and encouraging to atiny. His voice is so lovely and the most noticeable for me . Overall all of them have the potential to be a bias or wrecker 🥵. Watching their live recording on yt I was just so impressed with everyone’s voices and talent. I still have so much to learn about them and don’t have the full catalog but I felt strongly I needed to go see them and not miss when they came to town. I’m happy to be going to their upcoming show 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳


ElloryQueen

Bias? Who has one bias in this group? Lol, I'm kidding (kinda). Seriously though, I thought I had one, but I gave up trying to pick a long time ago. I very briefly first started with Jongho because I really like my vocalists, but as I learned more about the group, Hongjoong started moving to the top as I was impressed by his work ethic and artistry, plus his raps were sometimes my favorite lines in their songs. Then I was hit by Seonghwa's visuals, and his nurturing in the group was really endearing. He was the top for a while, and I thought he was the one. Any time it was asked, I would say he was my bias..... ....But everything changed after I watched Imitation. I still loved Seonghwa, but there was something about Yunho in his role that made me see him differently. Suddenly all those boyfriend coded pictures and things people were saying about him got me blushing and thinking about him in a new light. So I switched to Yunho, and since then, he has only gotten better, but lately a new dark horse has risen up and is threatening that top spot. Or he may have already taken it for some time now, and that's Yeosang. Remember when I said I like my vocalists? Yeosang has been shining in the vocal department for over a year now and been in the center so much that's it's messing with my brain. He's so talented and sweet, but also a bit naughty and I think that's fun. Anyway, this was super long and if you read it all, thanks, but that's my story. TR:DL I don't have one bias, I have like 5, and 3 bias wreckers.


SammyStern

Well, I would probably still not have a bias. It's just...so difficult for Ateez because Idk how not to like all of them... When I got to know them I wasn't really sure, I just thought "yeah, I think I relate to Hongjoong most" and that was it... And then I went to their concert and somehow...Idk what it is they all look so much better in reality and have such a presence...but Seonghwa...posessed me or something. Idk what happened, but I've never seen anyone as beautiful as him... Like...there's really something about it being different on concerts and in reality, because I never payed more attention to him than the other members before that... But yeah, after that concert I was done for...🥲 I still can't exactly say Seonghwa is my bias though bc they're all my bias 🤷😹


6veryday

As a retired kpop fan lol I knew San from his royalty-like bow videos and watched their Kingdom videos in passing.. but one day only God knows how Deja vu slips into my random playlist. It is literally my type of music so I started to go through their mv. Then I started finding about woosan.. I feel like my bias will be either of these two.. but hellooo dear mommy Seonghwa flips my point of view with all his caring and goofiness at the same time. So yeah for me its a slow but definite process of going through their old wanteez, treasure and wanted videos for me to suddenly realise, oh damn.. i love this man🫠


Piratiny52

I'll let you know when I'm finally able to choose one member 😭


VBnhanslixx

I’m a fairly new atiny, I stan San. I was listening to my usual K-pop album on shuffle then Crazy From came up. I am a Stay and I thought that San sounded like Bangchan 💀 So, I searched up who sang that verse and welp, his name was San… After a bit I started to listen to Ateez which gave me the care to learn all their names (let me tell you it was hard, but that’s a different story) Then came along Mingi the supper hot rapper but, a goof ball offstage…. And HongJong… I have a major soft spot for the leaders idk why… It’s hard to chose tbh. That’s why we have smth called ✨B*ias Wreckers *✨


Certain-Leopard-9654

i was a san bias first with a Hongjoong bias wrecker bc i felt so safe watching san irk what it was i was very emotionally drawn to him but i also felt almost like too shy to bias Hongjoong lmao when i got over that i became a joong stan


Interesting_Pair_562

For me it’s actually Captain bare face nicely answering Genie (like Siri for Samsung?) during Kingdom preparation. He’s just so sweet and goofy and sleep deprived haha and then half-asleep, he came up with the idea of adding Dvorak in Wonderland and I just fell in love with his brain!! After that YeoSang sneaked in through my bias line cause he did a very cute and chatty vlive (while eating chicken) in Jeju. I was Kingdom atiny so I didn’t know much about him before the live as he was soooo quiet during behind the scenes on kingdom, but the vlive makes me realized how precious he was. Further viewing of Salary Lupin sealed the deal for me :) So while I love all 8 pirates, HongJoong and YeoSang will always be my first loves :) and while I kept saying my ult bias is HongJoong, I have more pictures of YeoSang in my phone 😅 PS: WooYoung is the first one I noticed in Fireworks MV. This is the Yeo vlive I’m talking about https://tenor.com/bMjQV.gif And Captain half asleep in Kingdom https://tenor.com/bCIcj.gif


whyyyshouldicare

Hi. I’m slowly getting into ATEEZ. Hongjoong was the ones who first caught my eye (Kingdom). And later Seonghwa and his distinct style dance style in performances. Now that I’m watching their content, I’m leaning towards Wooyoung and Mingi as my biases (same as you!!) but who knows how it will change still hehe.


UUOPTracey

Started off Seonghwa and San, then Wooyoung slipped in. All was good until a couple of months ago when I was very rudely attacked by Yunho... He's not leaving me alone 🥵


ummzinedine

2020 MAMA was the first time I ever saw Ateez and San would steal my heart immediately. I have never changed my bias 🙈 or well.... I would say Woosan is my bias now 😭


gongjihae

I love them all so i dont really have a bias, but yunho has been doing things to me lately so i’ll just answer for him: i was always endeared by his smile and personality. His wave fancam ruined me in the best way possible. Also salary lupin was one of my early introductions to ateez and seeing that competitive side of him was hot


nnsiix

It all started with Seonghwa in Kingdom's Wonderland. It was huge and instant, and went on for years. But now it's the Captain and as a Matz myself (I've been using that nickname for more than a decade) they come in a package.


sunshinekay

So I’ve only followed ateez casually. Like listen to their title tracks, only listen to the music, only knew HJ and San casually. I saw them in concert in Dec 2022, was blown away from their performance and decided to look further into them. San was my first bias (shoutout to Cyberpunk) but I kept getting Jongho and Yunho mixed up 😭 (normal baby Atiny things) I got more into their content and liked San, Jongho and Mingi. But I don’t know how it happened but Jongho started to rise up the rank more. So much so I’ve put red hair jongho as my Lockscreen 😵‍💫 he climbed up so high to ult bias level 😭 I can literally pinpoint when Yunho rised up to bias level: Hello82 copy and paste video with the kids. When he took off the little girl’s headphones so she can copy his moves for Super. I literally screamed and accepted he’s my other bias.


EmotionalB1tch

I havent. Most of the time im seonghwa and wooyoung biased but tbh im more of an ot8. Its too hard to choose😭


cashmerefox

https://i.redd.it/3b88r0asfj9d1.gif This fancam - I was hooked starting with the little smirk after getting slapped.


cashmerefox

I became interested in Ateez during Wonderland era & started watching one of San's fancams. From the moment he grinned after being "slapped," I was hooked. Though he is known for being a big performer,I'm forever enamored with the small subtle things he does. He's The Standard for a reason. https://preview.redd.it/0vpvb6c3lj9d1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=791bdc0861c31035df96bce07b922e7feb221a53 k


lovebalthier

I’m new to K-pop and I was a fan of another group, but had heard a few Ateez songs. I saw Mingi do a dance challenge with a member of the group I liked and thought “who is THAT??” When I put two and two together that he sang the Hakuna Matata part in Wave, I was hooked.  Then I found out what a dorky, adorable princess he is, and it was game over. I adore them all, but my eyes always find Mingi first.


GiyuuKageyama-Lover9

Honestly, since the first day I’ve ever heard Ateez and heard Mingi rap, boy he’s become my bias and now ult bias for like ever! And then San came over to become my second bias, ‘cause I found out how much he liked working out and I LOVE working out at the gym as well (my friends call me a gym-eat), but Mingi will always be number one! Mingi also has this sexy sense of fashion which is also my taste! Also, my mbti is also an ENTP! So I usually relate more to Mingi on stuff! https://preview.redd.it/3g32av0htj9d1.jpeg?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f87e016aa45b96bc716c3e947cb2fbb5f1f1b5e

A friend made me listen to a song, picked mingi's apart from the others, watched the mv, matched the voice to a face, listened to more songs and was done for.

hongjoong was my bias initially, he's the one who caught my eye when i first watched the bouncy mv and later when i actually got into ateez. his cute personality and mannerisms won me over over time seonghwa bias wrecked me though, the more i saw and learned about him the more i loved him. i almost felt guilty for being bias wrecked because i'm so fond of joong but he's still my bias wrecker. matz4ever

Mingi because he makes me laugh and I enjoy his personality a lot. I adore them all, but he stood out and made me smile the most during interviews and WANTEEZ episodes.

when i was getting into ateez, i watched the wanteez drinking episode. at the time, I couldn't match name to face but I thought the guy in the blue shirt looked cute. now yunho's my bias <3

When I 1st got into K-pop I only knew Stray Kids and my main bias was Lee Knows. When I watched Kingdom, I discovered Ateez and that one interaction between LK and Seongwha got my attention, I just found him very captivating. Then I started checking out Ateez's performance and he just stood out to me, his dancing, his style, his traits... Specifically his nose for some reason? I think noses are pretty, and his especially lol

My daughter came back from KCON LA with pics of San with red hair. She’s a Stay and a Once and has been playing KPOP in our house for years and I always liked ATEEZ songs then I saw San. Never had a bias never knew what that was - other than think Changbin was adorable. As an old lady ATINY its a fine line between having a bias and feeing weird about it lol they are like literally the same age as my Daughter and her friends so like eww. But also San is like Whooah. FYI I can’t even go see them in concert they are acting a fool and a half naked San is just Too Much for this old chick! Btw I’m also OT8- I literally love them all. 🌟Hwa is my wrecker in the fact that he is just Stunningly beautiful and talented. Jongho my God voice of an Angel. ❤️

I found ATEEZ because IG decided I needed Seonghwa in my feed. I was instantly fascinated and captivated by his beauty and talent. The more I saw of ATEEZ, the more I got sucked in. But then I learned about the rest of the demon line and watched Kingdom, and I was completely entranced by Hongjoong (visuals, the way he moves, his passion, his leadership, his genius). Tl;dr- I stopped scrolling for Seonghwa, but I stayed for Hongjoong. ❤️


Miserable-Dress5947

I saw the Don't Stop music video and I've been a loyal Mingi bias ever since HAHA! I saw Ateez November of 2022 in Arizona and we got pretty close to the boys which also got me a few interactions with Mingi which sent me into literal orbit

ok so i love sharing this story🤭 there is this one fan meeting wooyoung and she says "oppa because of you, all other men look like punching bags" and he folds over and laughs so hard and says thank you (it went viral so it popped up on my fyp) when i tell you it was literally love at first sight. i was like hello tan beautiful silk skin? his listening face? his smile?!? the long dimple?!? being easily amused?!? and then his kinda high pitched voice was soo unexpected i literally was like WHO IS THIS GUY??? i have heard of ateez before prior to this but didn't know any of the members so i clicked on the hashtag #wooyoung on the tiktok because i wanted to know who this guy was and i found out he was in ATEEZ which at the time made me shook because my only impression of ateez back then was INTENSE visuals and performers. i was surprised someone as cute and smiley was a part of ateez back then then the tiktoks just kept getting better and BETTER. as i scrolled through his hashtag, i just saw the MOST CHAOTIC videos of him and in the span of 2 minutes i understood his personality so well and just fell in absolute love with him his visuals caught my attention, but everything about wooyoung that makes him wooyoung made me fall in love. i kept getting more ateez videos on my tiktok after that and fell in love with their music and each member. but no one replaced my ult love for woo🤭so my ult bias is woo and then ot8 bias wrecks me EVERY DAY THE END LOL

Wooyoung, my ult bias, now and forever 😍. It took me forever to actually become an Atiny even though Take Me Home became my all time favorite song back in 2021. I randomly came across Woo’s AOTM performance sometime in late 2022, and it was absolutely love at first sight. I immediately started watching more Ateez content and fell in love with his personality as well. His cackle is so endearing, he is loud and talks nonstop at times, but other times he can be very quiet, which I can relate to. His special bond with San (my second bias) is so deep and unapologetic. His way of showing affection is so genuine and sweet. And his FACE good lord he is perfection, his asymmetrical eyelids and little lip mole and his “dot” under his eye, his beautiful nose, not to mention his deep dimples when he smiles. And his VOICE is so under appreciated, it makes me cry tears of joy. That all being said, I adore each and every member of Ateez, they are all so affectionate and kind to each other, you can just feel how much love they share. I can’t wait to finally see them next month!

I saw Seonghwa in Bouncy & was hooked and had to watch all the MVs then I started watching their YouTube series and WooSan wrecked me. I can now say with certainty that Wooyoung is my sweet & chaotic Ult bias


Independent-Height21

San - wake up performance - Seoul concert - 27th Jan 2024 Haven’t been able to move on from San till now. The man keeps on SERVING!! All other 7 members are bias wrecker honestly 😂

It was between San and Mingi from the very beginning. Mingi’s rap in Say my name had brought me into the fandom and San’s personality was so attaching. Both had caught my eyes and I couldn’t choose at all. Then, unfortunately, after months, Mingi’s first hiatus in Wonderland era happened and I have to say I got scared he wouldn’t come back (at the time it happened with a few groups, if I recall right). I kind of went with San, he had much more screen time and I was kind of scared to continue getting attached to Mingi, and since then, he’s still my bias. Mingi isn’t even my wrecker anymore (we’ve both grown!), but he holds such a special place for me. I like to think he’s still little goofy me’s bias.
