I think a lot of people misunderstand K. When he received a lot of hate when Iland aired his friend from high school went on X to explain what type of person K is. I remember him saying that K is highly sensitive (wich K himself also has said) and that he has a strong sense of justice. A thing a lot of peope don't know about K unless you read every interview by him is that he was depressed during Iland and while he was a trainee. If you're wondering why, It's because he was conflicted between his two passions, marathon and sings/performing.
After getting to know the members of &TEAM I've also learned that K believes in praising a person warmly when they do well and call them out when they do wrong so they can learn from their mistakes and change. I've also seen a lot of people viewing him as an alfa male. I think that's a misunderstanding as well. K has said that he value communication a lot because people will not know what you thing if you don't express your opinions wich will lead to misunderstandings. I think a lot of people thought that he wanted to be in charge whenever he expressed his opinions in I-land wich is not the case. I get that people can have that kind of impression of peope who are honest and straight forward, especially if they don't know the person well or their intensions. K himself has said that he just want to set an example because he wants people to not be afraid of speaking their honest opinions. In &TEAM he always praise the other members whenever they express their honest opinions. In fact the members in &TEAM have said that their teamwork is so good thanks to K.

When this came out K got a lot of hate for the way he responded to Ni-Ki's actions. Even now some people will still bring up this incident even though we know how close the two are. I didn't personally think too much of it. Could it have been done better? Maybe. I felt bad for Taki too. He was so lost in this episode. It bothered him so much to be exempt from the elimination. It's great to see him with &Team though. He is their little mood maker lol! I felt bad for Geueno although I kind of agreed with the assessment. It's crazy to see him with Just B. He is like a different person. Sunoo very much reminds me of Jimin of BTS. Not skill wise but heart wise. Like how he always says what is in his mind and how he doesn't care what others say about his facial expressions. Hanbin had me cheesing too. He is such a loving person and he just wants everyone to get along. I'm glad he found a loving group in Tempest though. I loved the Fake Love performance. That thing was on repeat. I hope you got to see the guys at the door. That became our new goodbye. The ones eliminated seemed to have made their peace with what happened by the time they said good by to the others. Maybe you can recap with that at the beginning of the next vid?
