Soobin of TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) recently found himself at the center of a Twitter storm, but not for reasons one might expect. His fans, MOAs (Moments of Alwaysness), trended the hashtag “#staystrongsoobin,” sending their “prayers” for his wellbeing. However, the reason behind this outpouring of support was more light-hearted than it seemed.

Soobin is a well-known admirer of Jujutsu Kaisen. His favorite character is Gojo Satoru. For the uninitiated, Jujutsu Kaisen is an anime and manga about sorcerers battling physical manifestations of curses to protect humans. Soobin‘s affection for Gojo is evident. Whether he’s imitating Gojo‘s moves, snapping photos with Gojo posters, or sharing his fandom with MOAs, Soobin‘s love for the character is undeniable.

However, the fandom was thrown into a frenzy when a leaked manga preview hinted at Gojo’s possible death. This revelation led to Gojo‘s name trending on Twitter worldwide. Given Soobin‘s admiration for Gojo, MOAs humorously initiated the hashtag, hoping the potential spoiler wouldn’t make him too sad.

A visibly upset Soobin

Their concerns weren’t unfounded. On September 21, Soobin, alongside Hueningkai and Taehyun, went live on Weverse. They engaged with fans on various topics, including the latest developments in Jujutsu Kaisen. Eager fans flooded the livestream with comments about the spoiler, to which a visibly upset Soobin responded, asking for no more spoilers despite being aware of the manga’s events. Hueningkai added that he had to exit the Weverse app immediately upon seeing the spoiler, even though he expected the update. Soobin, in his typical fanboy fashion, asked fans to refrain from discussing Jujutsu Kaisen further.

While MOAs who follow the manga found Soobin‘s reaction relatable, others had mixed feelings. Some appreciated his investment in the character, while others questioned why fans would spoil the update for TXT’s leader.

We don’t have the answer for that, but we do know it’s heartwarming to see fans support their idols, even if it’s over an anime spoiler. As the story unfolds, one thing is certain: MOAs always have Soobin‘s back, no matter what. – K-Pop News Writer
