* FanPreferredCouple: Many, '''many''' people, especially Korean netizens, ship Yonghwa/Shinhye to death and are convinced they're together. This is because they were co-stars in Series/YouAreBeautiful and Heartstrings (and nearly in The Heirs), get along very well and are close friends. Too close according to some, even though both have repeatedly denied they're dating.

** Some people blame them for being treated better by FNC compared to FTI, including getting more musical freedom, and being the reason FTI's not as successful as when they were Power Rookies. They make it sound like CNB members personally stop FTI from releasing their own music or that they put a gun to the CEO's head and make him mistreat FTI. In reality, FNC is solely responsible for FTI's mistreatment and declining popularity (eg. their infamous decision of sending them to Japan at their peak in Korea) and ''not'' CNB, who generally mind their own business and have no say in the matter whatsoever.
** Yonghwa is a the victim of unnecessary Primadonna hate simply because FNC and the general public favours his music. The true story: Yonghwa's a good songwriter and gets attention for it. Other FNC idols (Jonghyun, FTI) are also good but don't get attention. This is because FNC fails to focus and market the others' music as well as Yonghwa's, and that's it. Primadonna's perception? Oh no, this must mean Yonghwa's selfish and forbids the others from promoting their own music. That arrogant rat bastard!

mostly aren't. Many fans hate each others and will put down each others' bands in some way. Why? All because they're the two most popular Korean idol bands and are under FNC Entertainment. It doesn't help that FNC ''encourages'' pitting the two bands together which doesn't do them any good[[note]]being the founder of two successful idol bands can come in handy - making the two bands compete against each other however simply means more money from one band and less from the other, making it counter-productive[[/note]] and doesn't mediate the fandoms' battles.

** [[GratuitousEnglish "Is my turtle ready?"]] That was Yonghwa trying to say, "Is it my turn already?" Yes, really.

** Their much-anticipated first appearance on Weekly Idol are full of these.
*** Their take on the Random Dance Play segment [[note]]they mimed their instruments and the show threw in CGI ones for airing[[/note]] - there's Minhyuk having great trouble sitting on an imaginary seat, Yonghwa being taken out for moving his foot that was suppose to be pedalling (and the OhCrap face that followed) and him sabotaging the members.
*** Minhyuk/Jonghyun and Yonghwa/Jungshin playing the Apple Game.[[note]]Two people hold an apple together with their foreheads and have to roll it down to their stomachs without dropping it using only their bodies.[[/note]] Much awkward skinship and questionable positioning ensued.
*** Yonghwa bragged that he can look in a girl's eye and know whether she likes him or not. He attempted to demonstrate this ability with two staff members and chose the girl he thought liked him... only for her to reject him. She laughed and tried to back away as Yonghwa kept tugging her hands shouting, [[BlatantLies "You don't like me?! You do like me! Don't you like me?"]] while being pulled away by an MC.
*** They mentioned they once went to a club but found it too boring and left. Their improvised dancing before saying that made it very clear why they're awkward in a club setting and shouldn't step foot in it again. Or dance.
** Jonghyun and Minhyuk's appearance in the special episode of Weekly Idol too:
*** When they were made to dance free-style on the Weekly Idol special episode, in contrast to FTI going crazy, they decided to... slow-dance in each other's arms. Their labelmates present were amused/disturbed... and then one of the [=MCs=] immediately grabbed Minhyuk saying, "No, [[{{Fanboy}} he's mine!]]
*** Their awful imaginary-instrument miming made a return in their Weekly Idol Special episode appearance, where they played with absolutely no improvement from their last appearance (Minhyuk being unable to sit on the imaginary seat properly and Jonghyun's guitar-strumming being likened to opening a champagne). Their labelmates present found it hilarious and they were immediately kicked out of the Random Dance Play competition.

** Minhyuk and Jonghyun's awful imaginary-instrument miming made a return in their Weekly Idol Special episode appearance, where they played with absolutely no improvement from their last appearance (Minhyuk being unable to sit on the imaginary seat properly and Jonghyun's guitar-strumming being likened to opening a champagne). Their labelmates present found it hilarious and they were immediately kicked out of the Random Dance Play competition.

** Many, '''many''' people, especially Korean netizens, ship Yonghwa/Shinhye to death and are convinced they're together. This is because they were co-stars in YouAreBeautiful and Heartstrings (and nearly in The Heirs), got along very well and are close friends. Too close according to some, even though both have repeatedly denied they're dating.

** Minhyuk. Jungshin too, maybe.
** Averted with Yonghwa; to many people, acting is the one thing he can't do. [[ItGotBetter He apparently improved though]] in Marry Him If You Dare, and some approve of his casting in the Korean historical drama version of TheThreeMusketeers.

** As did [[http://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/12891511.html his (and Jungshin's) comments in regards to the latter's gay rumours]]; Jungshin once told a story from during his long-haired days where an older female celebrity once asked him if he liked boys, and the comment "made him feel sad". Jonghyun's comment did ''not'' make it better by adding, “Because there were many rumors around that time, we started to become uncomfortable, thinking it might be true.”

** Their much-anticipated appearance of Weekly Idol are full of these. One (several more like it) is their take on the Random Dance Play segment [[note]]they mime their instruments instead and the show throws in CGI ones for airing[[/note]] - there's Minhyuk having great trouble sitting on an imaginary seat, Yonghwa being taken out for moving his foot that was suppose to be pedalling (and the OhCrap face that followed) and him sabotaging the members.
*** They also said they once went to a club but found it too boring and left. When they were made to dance in that episode, many fans agreed it's a good thing they likely won't step foot in a club again.
** [[GratuitousEnglish "Is my turtle ready?"]] That was Yonghwa trying to say, "Is it my turn already?" Yes, really.

*** Yonghwa bragged that he can look in a girl's eye and know whether she likes him or not. He attempted to demonstrate this ability with two staff members and chose the girl he thought liked him... only for her to reject him. She laughed and tried to back away as Yonghwa kept tugging her hands shouting, [[BlatantLies "You don't like me?! You do like me! Don't you like me?"]] while being pulled away by an MC.
*** They mentioned they once went to a club but found it too boring and left. Their improvised dancing before saying that made it very clear why they're awkward in a club setting and shouldn't step foot in it again. Or dance.

** Not only did they receive countless handsyncing/fake band accusations at debut, but the composer of "I'm A Loner" was accused of plagiarism which went as far as court. Despite it being the composer's fault (and the court eventually ruled the song as not plagiarised), this caused the hate for this "fake band" to go ''really'' overboard, even worse than FT Island's.
