A classic display of idol mischief has fans in absolute shambles, and it’s all thanks to Stray Kids‘ leader, Bang Chan.

On April 15, Bang Chan’s latest messages from the Bubble messaging app made the rounds on social media. In them, he casually revealed he’s been sitting on a private photo taken with his fellow ’97-liner friend BTS’s Jungkook…

…and he wants to keep it all to himself!

Why won’t he share the photo? Apparently, it’s because BTS’s visuals upstaged his own.

Though it isn’t clear where or when the photo was taken, it’s possible that Bang Chan could be referring to a backstage photo. Bang Chan was spotted in the audience at BTS’s recent BTS WORLD TOUR ARIRANG concert in Goyang.
