[2 Kids Room] Ep.19 Bang Chan X Felix 

My fav duo!!

I really love Changbin's opinions about everyone in these series. His inferences about members seem spot on, and he expresses himself very well.

The way they switch between languages so casually is FASCINATING to watch.

Every other member: talking about first impressions and fights. Band Chan and Felix: planning a trip.

Felix: Chan is balling Meanwhile Chan looking at his empty wallet after buying his kids all the expensive gifts they wanted

Felix: "I was a baby back then but now I don't cry" Also felix: *crying his heart out in the concert*

"They both have an Australian vibe we don't know of." Well yeah, this episode beautifully portrayed it. If you've watched all the 2kids room until now, you could clearly tell that the vibe from this episode is totally different. I don't know how to put it in words, but i bet y'all could feel it too

People commenting about why Felix doesn’t seem as affectionate or cute with Chan. My take on it is that because they’re Aussies the age difference doesn’t matter and they can act like equal friends. It also seems Felix is more mature with Chan because Chan relies on him a lot. With other member Felix is a bit more extra but with Chan he can be chill. If you look at their body language, it’s open, nothing is crossed which means they feel safe and comfortable. Also I think Felix is keeping his posture straight as I think his back is still not great here.

Felix and Chan: talking about Stays edits STAYS RN: *nervous laugh*

Ive always feel the vibe that Chan is a really sensitive guy who need lots of love and validation despite being the eldest and a leader, and this episode really show that side of him. Please gives him lots of love everyone!

You know, I used to think the reason Felix is so precious to Chan is just because of a sense of kinship due to being from the same country. But I think it's more than that. Chan gave up everything to chase his dream in Korea. He gave up his home. I think when Felix showed up, he felt a little bit like home to Chan, and he needed that. That's why he's a little more attached to him than the others.

I've seen people worry about Felix and Chan's relationship. as if korean fans don't meet them together in shopping malls and cafes all the time. or as if Felix hadn't cried in Chan's arms weeks ago..... they love each other like true brothers. that's probably why Felix isn't as clingy with Chan as he is with others. i mean, how often do you have a cutesy with your siblings? I'm embarrassed to even hug mine, especially act like a love bird to him.... lol

I literally could watch their bilingual's conversation for HOURS

True fact: Everyone wants to have a friend like bang chan and felix

Changbin's emotional intelligence is out the roof y'all

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift, that is why they call it the present." This includes so much deep meaning. Thanks to Chan x Lix

Popular opinion: Everyone agrees that seeing Bangchan and Felix smile and laugh can make our days better

The way bangchan acts.. He's not only a gentleman but also a pure soul. His personality is so admirable.

When I saw Bangchan's writing to Felix at the end of this video, the phrase, "I'll never leave you" just brought tears to my eyes. He has kept his word since the survival episode, when he said to Felix, "I'll never leave you yea? I'll always be there for you" when Felix got eliminated. This just shows how much they love each other and its just so heartwarming to see that 💕😭

i feel like felix being not very clingy and affectionate to chan is kinda his strategy to show that chan can rely on him, that he’s trustworthy and chan doesn’t have to take care of him or see him like a kid. i feel like he perceives the weight that chan carries on his shoulders and doesn’t want to be a burden. but felix is human too, and it seems like he’s a very sentimental one, so he can’t help to seek for chan when he needs to - like when he cried at chan’s shoulder for a while during the recent concert. anyways that’s just my point of view, i don’t really know them (none of us do) and i may be totally wrong hehe

- Chan is SO HAPPY. He's just in full Equal Aussie Bros mode. - Extended Chanlix interactions like this always highlight what both Chan and some of the others have said before: Felix feels like home to Chan. His demeanor changes when he's alone with Felix; his manner shifts into more distinctly western and casual, and SKZ's already lax hierarchy drops by the wayside. - Bilingual chaos ftw, omg. - Seungmin's comparison between the Aussies finding each other in a foreign land and the Korean members finding Korean food in a foreign land both being situations where finding something from one's home makes one feel more connected to home is well said. - MinBinSung just declared the Aussies to be SocialButterflyRacha. - Them talking about coming up with things for Chan and Felix to do to "help" -- when absolutely no help is actually needed -- sounds exactly like parents and elder siblings and whatnot who come up with things for little kids to "help" with, to teach them things and give them a sense of accomplishment. Basically, they're indulging their Aussie babies so the babies won't be sad. And the fact that they all apparently do it independently and didn't know the others were doing it too is hilarious. That means they each individually went "OMG, my Aussie is sad because I didn't ask him for help. I'll do better next time." - Listen, I highly doubt it's gonna happen, because, y'know, reality. But if Chan ever managed to get his wish of them all living next door to each other in their own little SKZ neighborhood for the rest of their lives, I would ugly cry until I puked. This man is so unabashed and open about how much he loves them all. And that has to be deliberate. Even if you couldn't figure it out on your own, he himself has directly mentioned how his long years of isolation and stress as a child trainee alone in a foreign country made him shut down his emotions to a dangerous level. So the fact that he's so consistently open and vulnerable with his love for them is even more beautiful because it's _intentional._ - Chan, sweetie...the number of screenshots of your hands, combined with thirst posts about said hands, that are out there all across the globe completely belies that "my hands are ugly" claim. You could post a "Chan's Hands" pic on ig every week, and STAY would lose their minds. - Every person who's ever made a "SKZ in sync" edit just died. - Hyunjin talking about Chanlix like he handles them with the approach of a combination psychologist/animal trainer. - That was a completely unironic "bro" from Chan, and I love it. - LMAO every time they flip back over to the members for another round of "The Aussies are love sponges! We must drown them in love so they won't be sad! The six of us are raising a pair of Aussies, and it's so exhausting that it takes all of us to try to fill their love reserves." - MinBinSung's flawless group statement of love is reminiscent of 3RACHA's equally flawless self-intros... - "I'll never leave you." Damm1t, Chris.

Fact : Everyone wants a friendship like Chan and Felix

I always love the way chan describes his love for felix. It's so pretty when he says we are meant to be together, we are destined, we have the same blood, we just connect somehow. Chan seems so relaxed around him

3:06-3:32 Chan mixing both Korean and English while he’s talking is so cute 😭

Chan’s face when Felix said he hasn’t been to penguin island had me crying he’s too cute🥺🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The way Lee Know described how Felix likes helping others, looks like a mom saying other people how adorable their son is 😢💔

You can tell they are really close because there’s no overacting or acting cute between them. Felix doesn’t even have to say much. They are just like family when you feel so comfortable you can even act sad or grumpy with them and feel comfortable feeling that way. They are true family.

Felix speaking in English ahhhh his accent is so attractive 😩😭 on the other hand I love to see you together

The fact that Chan kept his promise and he still says that he’ll never leave Felix, I’ll just be balling in the corner 😭

11:14 Felix: “I don’t cry if I can help it” This 2 kids room must be recorded way before the Maniac concert then haha

bang chan loves people so selflessly like very very selflessly that I fear he'd lose his self worth, I'm surprised how this man is always giving immense amount of love and care to people around him, he is very very expressive when it comes to love, I hope he doesn't lose himself while loving others, he's truly unreal, hope he receives the same amount of love he gives to people around him. he deserves the world truly literally the world.

Learning a second language is also about developing a second personality. Watching Chan shift back and forth from Korean ver. to Aussie ver. mid-sentence is really fascinating.

**felix helping chan take a selfie** chan: “wow, he is so gifted my child is truly a genius…”

Almost cried reading Chan's message: “ I'll always be by your side too! I'll never leave you.” 😫😭❤️❤️

At first it seemed like Felix was uncomfortable or didn't want to talk much, but after watching the video and really understanding more about that relationship(plus reading the comments) it'd more like Felix is showing more maturity, reliability and growth with Chan because they're literally like brother outside the Koren spectrum of things. Like Felix doesn't have to be the quote on quote younger one, he can just be 100 percent himself because it is just him and Chan. So ig he wasn't uncomfortable but more of just showing reliability and maturity.

9:57 just confirmed that Chan is lurking in stayville👀

Channie's "I'll never leave ya" suddenly brings me back to "I'm not gonna leave you behind" and now im crying :'

"I'll always be by your side too! I'll never leave you." "I'm not gonna leave you behind. Always find me, yeah?" it's been four years and nothing changed. feel so glad.

felix: "i was a baby back then!" at 11:03... also felix at the seoul concert: being an adorable chick and sobbing from happiness felix... hun.. you're still our baby chick

Felix: I don't cry that much anymore Also Felix: Spends 30 minutes on tour crying his poor little eyes out

HAN: Get me house with Han river view as a bday present!! FELIX: Get me a house, Chan's ballin' LEE KNOW: Buy a building and rent 3 floors as Chinese, western restaurants- we will earn profits ✨👀

this episode is just to commemorate all of their australian memories, nothing else.

My heart melted when Felix remembered a quote from a movie Bang Chan told him🫶🥹 14:39

난 이 조합 정말 눈물나고 친형제 같아서 쮸음 ㅜㅜㅜㅜ 그러니까 이번 투어 호주도 포함 맞겠죠..?ㅎㅎ(사실 협박임.)

"GET ME A HOUSE!! Chan is ballin'~" Felix 2022

Felix: I don’t cry often nowadays. I become more cold and open. - Also Felix: crying in the concert for half an hour 🐥🐣❤️

chan is *so* much more relaxed in this video? like he either acts super cutesy (which i adore) or is a bit reserved and talks about everyone but himself (also adore) but he seems.....very relaxed here? like he can be 'bang chan' and also 'christopher'. like he doesnt feel he needs to play a role or anything like he does with the others? like i think with felix he's the most himself. same with felix tbh. the vibe they give off is that they can be really, really chill with each other. it speaks to how comfy they feel with each other. yeah we'd all love more cuddles between them but i think it just shows that they can be totally at ease and not worry about coming across as cold or anything! no misunderstandings! idk just my thoughts. and outside of this ep, its clear how much they love and rely on each other. i think skinship actually might be *way* more meaningful between them than with others *because* they dont do it very often with each other where we can see it. ok im gonna end this essay lol. *edit*: hah they basically said this themselves at 7:47 lololol

I saw many comments about felix being 'odd' with chan. But i feel, it just their dynamic. Like chan said, they don't have to lovey dovey to show their relationship. I feel they closer offcam. We don't know anything behind the scenes, so just enjoy what they want to show us..

When u just started stanning SKZ but you can’t choose ur bias coz they’re all amazing. I can relate this

It breaks my heart that Chan is so insecure about literally everything. It's painful how much it shows in this video : asking Felix to go shopping with him because he's not confident enough to pick clothes, saying he can't wear rings because his fingers are "ugly", being relieved that Felix likes the present him better... I don't have the money or the means to go to a fanmeet event, but I truly hope that out of all the fans that went to talk to him, at least one of them grabbed his face, looked him deep in the eye and told him all the beautiful things about him. I hope that someone told him about how handsome and utterly stunning he is and that at least once, he believed it. This man really deserves the entire world and he doesn't even realize it... It really hurts to see him cover his eyes/face whenever he watches himself do something sexy or revealing, because it's so obvious that it's not just embarrassment, it really feels like he can barely stand to look at himself being sexy because he doesn't think he is. Protect Bang Chan at all costs and tell him he's gorgeous, pls.

Aussie line is just like real brother 😭❤ Felix always more cute or soft in front of other members, but being more strong and mature side for Chan. It reminds me that Felix talked that he want to show that he is reliable to his mom. I think that's the same for Chan (his big brother ) Chan always show his love and support to Felix ,just like Chan wants to do for his little brother Lucas🥺 so precious 💖 our aussie babies ❤TRUE FAMILY ❤

I love how Chan chose to take Felix under his wings so he didn’t have to suffer alone the way Chan did for years. I love how they still switch back and forth in Korean/English and how Chan still sometimes translates for Felix when it’s a more complicated word. Aussie line is each other’s cure to homesickness. 🥺

I’ve noticed that Felix is more lovey dovey and animated with the others but he seems to be more chill with Chan

And we have only 15 minutes of the entire footage. Han said that the original conversation lasted almost one hour. Give us everything JYP! What did you edited? There must be something cute and cool! And the other 2KidsRoom too! Come on, this is not fair!😭😭😭

“ever since i was born i feel like we’ve just been connected, like actual family like real brothers” - bang chan to felix they're soulmates:')

14:55 the part he remembers thats says "Today is the present." genuinely scares me... like the moment I look at what I'm doing in the moment I realize that I'm doing nothing when I'm at the age I should be doing something, but my circumstances are preventing me from moving foward, but then I feel like I'm making excuses even though I know I'm not but that's not how others see it 💀

I just know that this *Aussie room* is just gonna be a big ball of serotonin and bang chan babying his baby Lix

Bang Chan: Any places you wanna go Felix: Australia Bang Chan: I understand that too STAYS: * *tears flow, hands on the mouth, ugly crying intensifies* *

felix: “i dont cry anymore” also lix: *sobs the entire last hour of the concert*

They're really soulmate. Best episode ever without any acting just pure and true feeling that we can feel.

15:10 - Changbin and Lee Know led by Han struggling to say *"Guys, we love you!"* is the funniest thing ever 😂 pure comedy

"They don't think helping others is a hassle" Angels 🥺

英語と韓国語で混ぜながら話すの面白い。 私は偶然、どっちも勉強中だからすごく興味深かった。2人の関係性も興味津々で、すごくいい関係だなぁというのがわかりました。 2人とも美しい✨

I really can't express in words how much i admire and adore these two's brotherhood....all of stray kids have a family-like friendship but when it comes to the aussie line you can totally feel a different vibe.....i hope one day they fulfill their dreams and go back to their home....on another note my heart can't help but break at the sight of Chan once more not appreciating himself......i truly hope he will come across this message and a lot others by stay and sees how much stunning he is not only appearance wise but soul wise too....🥺🥺

I almost cried reading Chan's letter " I'll never leave you " I remember Chan said the same thing to Felix " Always find me right ? I'm not gonna leave you behind " in Straykids survival show :(

5:18 lee know telling how felix likes to help😍

Felix is sunshine, but when he's with bangchan, it feels more warm 😊💛

True fact: Everyone wants to have a friend like Bang Chan and Felix

"chan really loves the members a lot"...and it freaking shows..in everything the do, chan is always there to support them and give them strength. Where can you find another leader like him? He's willing to sacrifice everything for the kids. My chan

Chan is so often asked to buy a house that he is eventually expected to buy an entire village for his kids one day....

バンチャンとフィリックスは人生何回目なんですか？？ 話してる内容が深すぎて35才の心にぶっ刺さりました。 「過去はヒストリー。未来はミステリー。今日という日は、贈り物だから英語で現在のことをプレゼントと呼ぶんだ。」 心に留めておこうと思いました😂 若くてイケメンで見た目も良いのに中身も深いのどういうこと？？

Man it breaks my heart hearing Bang Chan say "It's been 3 years and 2 months" like he's counting every seconds since his last day at home

Ngl chans “I’ll never leave you” to Felix, it hits a spot in my heart and makes me wanna hug them and fall to my knees sobbing at the same time

I cried so hard when they were talking about Straya as you can feel how much they miss it 😭

14:28 I don't know why but this touched me so much I almost cried. how lucky this fandom is, that the members can say this so naturally and with so much quiet confidence. I would feel so thankful to be part of this fandom, this family

can we talk about how Changibin and Seugmin are so well spoken and know their members really really well....the way they speak about them..such depth,insight,atttentiveness...love you all boys

Felix: I don’t cry that much. Also Felix: has a complete breakdown because he was so happy to be with the members on stage with Stays. I love that boy.

fact: everyone wants to be loved by someone just like chan loves felix

7:40 once I heard that Chan's solo track is called "Connected", this scene immediately came to my mind

Chan calling any part of himself ugly is basically him turning on the Chan signal and calling on all flirty Stays to send in more pick up lines, and for that I thank him (as if we needed the permission).

I love how much Felix and Chan laugh together, it’s adorable.

okay honestly i'm losing my mind at 3:00...chan is so excited telling felix about the penguin island and felix is just sitting there replying kind of monotonously like so chill and that "why what was up there" WHY IS IT SO FUNNY the way he says it i find it hilarious

I just want to say, as a fellow Korean who was born/raised in a different country, being in Korea can be quite disorienting. For me, I’m from the US but in America, I’m not American enough and in Korea, I’m not Korean enough. When you meet people on the same boat as you, there’s almost an instant camaraderie. Felix and Chan both left their home/family and came to a situation that was probably isolating and competitive (and culturally very different), I can’t imagine how comforting it must have been to find someone who will truly understand all of that and go through the hard times together with.

Chan's smile is priceless and Felix's voice is so soothing.

9:50 Oh they saw the sync video😂😂😂

13:30 I think I can honestly say that I like bangchan the way he is now more than the newly debuted one, solely because he seems more relaxed now. not in the sense that he has lesser work to do, but more in the way that he seems mentally unburderned, and more happier. I feel like the work chan and skz as a whole, put in didn't match up to the results they got in the eras before gods menu. the ratio was just off, and it was obvious that they deserved so much more. their popularity skyrocketing after gods menu probably put their minds at rest regarding the whole "is our next release going to do well?" thing bc it gave them a large and stable fanbase. i feel like he wasn't mentally well during a certain period, but im really glad to see thats not the case anymore (I hope, at least). It feels to me like the world's finally compensating him for all the hardships it put him through.

4:16 and they all just went to Jeju Island! Yay! They got to check this off the list 🥰

Chan: What do you want for this one (bday)? Felix: This one? Idk 1 second later Felix: Get me a house😂😂

Chan: What do you want for present? Felix: GeT mE a HoUse

"Black clothes. You look like a reaper." Felix is very creative.

I think he Felix respects Chan so much and that makes him want to be seen as a mature, respected part of the team in Chan's eyes. I think he wants to impress him, to be seen as someone who can take care of himself, who doesn't want to burden Chan further. I do sometimes wonder, though, if that inadvertently hurts Chan's feelings. I get a pretty strong sense from Chan that he would LOVE for Felix to treat him the same way as he does the other members, because I think Chan has been trying to get rid of the intimidating leadership / oldest group member stereotypical dynamic for a long time, and having Felix treat him differently might sometimes make him feel like he isn't succeeding in being where he wants to be among them socially (equals). I think it's a super interesting thing to observe in groups, the way they change around group dynamics and how sometimes two people can be trying to accomplish something they think will please the other member, but the concepts clash. Just a really interesting social discussion to be had. In any case, I think they have a lovely brotherly relationship, and I'm glad they'll always have each other!

Felix has vocal, visual, personality he has everything he's so perfect and most importantly dancing, And he's our happiness, angel & sunshine ♡ like he has the power to confort the people with his sweetness, warmth and sinceriy. One of the best human ever!

“Bang Chan and Yongbok are both really hungry for love!” “We need to show them more love because they want much more than we think.” Once again Changbin showed how observant and so in-tune with his members he is! Even when he acted little silly and even shy about saying “we love you” with Jisung and Minho at the end, Changbin realized how needed it was for them to say that because of how filled with love both Chan and Felix are!

I love how when they were describing Australia by saying "the beach, the sun shines so brightly, the wind is so nice" yeah I just walked home in the sun and it was still somehow freezing and 10 minutes later its thunderstorming. Don't be fooled by Australia's weather moodswings.

14:15 he's definitely matured!! Wow our lil felix

11:14 Can we all please laugh at the fact that Felix said, and I quote: “I don’t cry if I can help it. I’ve become more cold but open”, and he was bawling for an hour on the last day of Seoul concert😂😂😂 just you wait🤣

THE DUO WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR! One of the best chemistries and bond in the whole kpop world! Love them together so much, I hope they always have each other

the face in 11:40 "you know what's that called?" PLS chan i love you so much

한국어랑 영어 둘다 완벽하다...부럽다ㅜㅜ

I love seeing them speaking English because usually they speak in Korean so this type of conversation is rare and precious 💖
