   I posted a thread recently about #BangChan, #Seungmin, #I_N, and some #skzSignificantJewellery.

   But then I decided it was too unhinged and I deleted the thread.

   (I, um, kept the text and the images and the alt text. Because I'm still deeply interested in this. For reasons that I dare not examine too closely, lest I judge myself.)

   Anyway. In the #skz video released today, Bang Chan is wearing a necklace with 3 of the cross symbols that match the cross symbol on Seungmin's new necklace.

   ✂️ Interview with Young K where Bang Chan talks about his bracelets.

   :youtube: https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxhxOcYve1wEYxfZGQa8VKteHBe-d4CsB-

   When I originally clipped this, I said that Bang Chan was lying about it not being that specific bracelet. It's always those two specific bracelets, I said. But actually: it's always the round flower cross bracelet. And when he said "it's not this one specifically" he was actually touching the *other* bracelet. Because he is a tricksy motherfucker.

     I.N recently gave Chan a pair of sunglasses with the round flower cross on the lens and arm(s?)

     I don't think Chan has talked about where the other round flower cross pieces came from.

     I.N always wears a rosary ring, and I saw a factoid that he's had it since the 7th grade, but there was no source and I'm not sure that it's true. I haven't seen a photo of him wearing it before, hmm, 2019 i think?

     ✂️ #Changbin shows the pendant necklace that #BangChan gave him for his birthday in 2024

     I think he's referring to the curb chain bracelet that Chan gave him, towards the end of this clip?? the subtitles might be slightly wrong. He's touching the bracelet when he says it, anyway

     @1ksrw oh the gucci bracelet yes of course! 💞

     I actually don't know which bracelet Chan gave him, and whether the replacement was identical to the one he lost. But I think it's the one in the pics you shared.

     @lookitmychicken is it the bracelet in these pics? i'm wondering if this is the one that chan said changbin lost and later found when he was moving out lol

     changbin actually wore a gucci bracelet that hyunjin gifted him for a long time around the time i got into them so that's the main sentimental piece of jewelry i associate with him, although he doesn't seem to wear that any more either

     @1ksrw I saw that picture when I was searching earlier and it didn't seem like a great pic of either bracelet ... also he doesn't even really look like Changbin, it's weird! I kept staring at it and wondering if it was some other idol who looks a bit like Changbin and the photo was mislabelled. Chin not pointy enough? 😂

     @1ksrw cracked the code yes! so um here we go:

     I can't find the original Significant Bracelet but it's clearly a Chrome Hearts crossball bracelet in silver.

     Chan's new bracelet: https://www.grailed.com/listings/69841824-chrome-hearts-chrome-hearts-dice-bracelet

     The glasses that Innie gave Chan for his birthday: https://www.grailed.com/listings/69951203-chrome-hearts-chrome-hearts-rodsicle-glasses

     Chan has at least *two* variations of the crossball earrings, or possibly even three. I don't have a good photo of the ones he's wearing on the giant screens at the opening of the skz dominate tour, but I know 100% that they are the Chrome Hearts crossball design, and my brain is telling me that they might have been drop earrings??

     The cut-out cross earrings Chan's wearing in the Young K interview: https://chromeworld.jp/product/cross-cut-out-stud-earring

     Maaaybe the cross drop earrings that he wore on the big screens at the start of dominate concert?? https://chromeworld.jp/product/tiny-e-ch-plus-drop-earrings-with-diamonds

     Chan's smaller cross ball stud earrings that he's wearing with the glasses: https://chromeworld.jp/product/cross-ball-stud

     Chan's triple cross pendant in the new video: https://chromeworld.jp/product/cemetery-cut-out-pendant

     It's possible that the triple cross pendant is a stylist's choice.

     But I'm going delulu here and noticing that this video comes out within one or two days of Chan posting Bubble and Instagram pics featuring 3 new pieces with this design (and the jeans are probably chrome hearts too but are not #skzSignificantJewelry).

     So. Uh. It seems like Bang Chan has seven Chrome Hearts crossball or maltese cross accessories. (If we assume that the dominate tour earrings are not the same as the cut-out cross or crossball stud earrings.)

     What a coincidence that there are also seven #skz members who might potentially have gifted such things to him.

     so let's roll out the corkboard and the red string again ...

     someone gave Bang Chan a Chrome Hearts a cross-themed jewellery piece about 3 or 4 years (??) ago. Since then, he's only taken it off when required to do so by stylists. And a lot of the time, if he can get away with it, he wears it during styled looks too.

     If he has 7 pieces, and there's one from each skz member, then I.N didn't give him the original bracelet.

     I'm not aware of him ever mentioning where the other pieces came from.

     Question: who gave him the original crossball bracelet? Could be any of them. Could even be something he bought for himself. It's clear that he likes the texture and feel of it (he seems to have a high sensitivity to textures and materials) and wears it even when he's sleeping (and um not wearing anything else, thanks Christopher for that information).

     Until, hmm, this year I think? the original bracelet was the only piece that appeared in public.

     I think the cut-out cross earrings from the Young K interview appeared earliest, although it's possible that the drop earrings in the dominate tour opening got filmed earlier. Not birthday gifts then (Chan's birthday is early October), but could be gifts for some other reason.

     The other 4 pieces have made their first appearances just in the last couple of days. The glasses were a birthday gift, the others might have been.

     Changbin received his Chrome Hearts pendant from Chan on his birthday in August.

     The photo of Seungmin wearing his necklace is at Chan's family home in Sydney, and it's probably a selfie, but there's another one in the set where the necklace chain is visible and someone else took the photo. Chan maybe, since it's his dog & his family's home? It's possible that other skz members were there too, but I don't think any of them have posted photos at Chan's family home from this most recent trip. (Although I have seen a grainy video of someone who's allegedly Lee Know being dragged along by Berry doggo enthusiastically taking him for a walk.)

     Anyway all that waffling is to say: I think Bang Chan gave Seungmin that necklace. Probably not a birthday present, because Chan gave him a phone for his birthday.

     At the Sydney concert, Bang Chan, Changbin and Seungmin talked about eating lamb chops cooked by Chan's dad, and Seungmin waved to Chan's family in the audience. Seungmin was insistent that Chan's dad should receive credit for the excellence of his lamb chops. I'm choosing to interpret this as competition to be the best son-in-law.

     Okay judge me some more but: I have also seen a grainy photo of Bang Chan, Seungmin and Changbin together in Sydney, with none of the other members around.

     Almost-entirely-baseless theory: only the three of them went to dinner at Chan's place and got fed the legendary lamb chops. (Or even ... stayed at Chan's place??)

     Seungmin's new necklace is #skzSignificantJewellery to mark the occasion of an important family announcement e.g. hey fam we're engaged ahaha yeah I know 🤡🤡🤡

     And Bang Chan's new triple cross pendant symbolises the polyam triad relationship with Seungmin and Changbin SHUT UP I KNOWWWWWW 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

     New data point obtained, gasp!

     Looking at photo cards just now, I noticed that Bang Chan is wearing yet another Chrome Hearts cross accessory.

     This selfie was taken at the London Hyde Park festival earlier this year.

     The bracelet is this one, I think: https://www.therealreal.com/products/jewelry/bracelets/link/chrome-hearts-floral-cross-id-link-bracelet-nc4y3

     I don't know if this is the same curb chain bracelet that he's been wearing since 2017, or a different one.

     But it does puncture a hole in my theory that he has exactly 7 accessories with this design, one given to him by each #skz member. And it reopens my ridiculous RPF concept where I.N bought the original crossball bracelet for Channie as soon as I.N was considered an adult in Korea.

     Goddammit Christopher.

     He was in fact wearing the Chrome Hearts flower cross curb chain bracelet during the Young K interview.

     So when he said "not this one specifically," he was just ... lying.

     I mean.

     Not so bold a lie as if he'd said it while touching the crossball bracelet. But still.

     I am 98% sure that we will see each of the remaining skz members wearing at least one Chrome Hearts cross-themed accessory in the coming weeks. Or possibly they've worn them already and I haven't spotted them yet.

     I'm keeping my eye on Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix, and I.N.
