Our best leader 🥹1Every time, without fail, Bang Chan walks behind the Kids when they walk through an airport and he's always paying attention to them and their well being. Just keeping an eye on everyone from the baclk. I am so glad they and we have him. Our best leader 🥹Chris explained in a V Live livestream that doing so makes him feel safe. Similarly, when they are all facing one direction side-by-side, he ends up standing at one of the extreme ends so he can look at all his members together.Having grown up as the eldest among siblings as well, Chan feels responsible for his members, calling them "good little devils."2) He holds weekly Chan's Room sessions to talk with STAY‏ً@BCHANFEEDchan’s room ep.1771153289chan’s room ep.177🐺 https://t.co/RlDWc0BcLhThe Stray Kids leader hosts a weekly livestream on V Live called Chan's Room. He plays a variety of songs for STAYs, sometimes bringing food along and turning the session into a mukbang. He also addresses fan questions and attempts to alleviate their worries by sharing his feelings on the matter.Apart from being a place of comfort and relaxation for many (even those who aren't fans of Stray Kids' Bang Chan), the livestreams have funny moments. These range from fans trying pick-up lines on him to Han calling Changbin a walrus.Choosing to take an hour out of his schedule every week shows his desire to connect and strengthen the bond with STAYs as well as his leadership and initiative.3) Bang Chan encouraging the kids in their solo endevorshead jilixer CHAN BIRTHDAY ⤮@surfinlixbang chan helped compose and arrange “Alien” 🥺273bang chan helped compose and arrange “Alien” 🥺 https://t.co/xgJFByBYpWAs part of SKZ Record/ Player, the group members put out previously unreleased music, song and dance covers.

This was on top of his responsibilities as part of 3RACHA and as a lyricist, producer, and manager for the group's official projects. Chan helped out his members because of his love for them, despite his busy schedule.4) The leader complimenting the "kids" any chance he getsAlong with helping the members out with music-related problems, Stray Kids' Bang Chan also respects them, and often compliments them on how well they are doing.From talking about how he would love to use Felix's voice in different types of music to admiring Han's ability as an all-rounder (rapper, singer, and producer), the 3RACHA leader spares no effort in admiring his members. In one Chan's Room stream, he spent nearly fifteen minutes talking about the members' smiles and how they are all unique and lovely.5) Chan driving the music of Stray Kidsbangchan pics@bchanarchivebang chan thank you for working so hard to make amazing music. he has now been credited by komca on a total 122 songs. so proud of you! 🤍4349953bang chan thank you for working so hard to make amazing music. he has now been credited by komca on a total 122 songs. so proud of you! 🤍 https://t.co/oNcbpWrL1EAs of September 21, Stray Kids' Bang Chan became the youngest member of the top ten on KOMCA's credit list. With 138 songs accredited to the rapper, he has tied with BAP's Yongguk at number 10 on the list.

However, the 25-year-old manages to put the group's needs before his own.𝐬𝐨𝐨𝐦𝐲🐺 chan's day@nunabreadeven though he said he doesn't want to dop birthday vlive, the company prepared a birthday cake for today's chan's room and he is still very grateful about it.8even though he said he doesn't want to dop birthday vlive, the company prepared a birthday cake for today's chan's room and he is still very grateful about it. https://t.co/6EtK6ViKs1Stray Kids' Bang Chan recently celebrated his birthday on V Live with fans, bringing a cake that illustrated a picture from his recent visit to Australia.
