Here Are 15 Pieces Of Evidence That Prove ATEEZ’s Leader Hongjoong Is Actually Soft AF

Hongjoong is a K-Pop idol that is known for his duality. While he is part of ATEEZ‘s infamous “demon line” along with San and Seonghwa due to how possessed he can look on-stage, off-stage he can be a completely different person. He’s often soft-spoken, sweet, kind, and considerate, and even though his visuals can look a bit intimidating at times, he’s really anything but! Here are 13 pieces of evidence that prove Hongjoong is just a big softie.

1. Could anyone but a giant sweetie look this cute in a beanie?
