Just a light-hearted discussion post (that I do have some strong feelings about xD) that I find myself needing. To us ARMY, all seven members are adorable and have their cute moments. They all have called each other cute countless number of times. We also know that the maknae line, being the youngest of the group, are incredibly adored by their hyungs and doted upon. With that said, if asked to choose, who do you think each member would pick as the one that they find the cutest within the group? Please comment your choices below, and build your case (with cute examples if possible). I’ll start first.

1) **Hobi** —> *Yoongi*. Without a question. I won’t lie, it’s this thought that prompted me to start this discussion in the first place xD I have watched endless hours of bangtan content over the years, and this is what has always stood out to me. Yoongi, fierce rapper, acclaimed producer and second eldest, so often misperceived to be cold and indifferent. But all these years, Hobi has only ever seen [him as cute](https://youtu.be/xehCGX_3VHw?si=jRJtX8ZJVsjmGADg&t=2m31s) and [adorable even when he’s whining](https://youtu.be/c1mXPOfXjJc?si=DHxMhcLm_-XotNrW&t=6m8s). If you ask him to describe Yoongi with one word, there’s a 99% chance it’ll be “cute”. In one of their Japanese interviews when they were asked to guess who had been voted the cutest, everyone else mentioned a maknae line member but of course Hobi went “Isn’t it Yoongi hyung?”. I can’t link it here because of sub rules, but if you look up “Hobi calling Yoongi cute” on Twitter/X, you’ll find the most precious compilation ever. He’s always so endeared by his hyung and I just find it so wholesome. And Yoongi looking bashful every time is the most precious thing.

2) **Tae** —> *Namjoon*. Is this a surprising choice? If you look at Tae and Joon’s interactions closely, it won’t be. I adore how Joon is the leader, spokesperson, an intelligent and incredibly handsome 181 cm elegant man, but Tae insists on babying him every chance he gets (or when Joon allows him to hahah). He serenades him passionately with trot, wants to “pat pat” his head, give him forehead kisses and [enjoys teasing him](https://youtu.be/CfWlBmpN4sM?si=4rKih5bDd3HOdWlm). With these two, the reverse is often true as well with Joon openly endeared by Tae often. I especially love this pairing so much because Joon is often hesitant and awkward about expressing affection, but Tae doesn’t care one bit and is always outwardly affectionate with him.
