TXT Soobin's Supposed Childhood Best Friend Describes Idol as Kid, Recalls Memories of Him
On Oct. 23, a post titled "TXT Soobin Was My Childhood Best Friend" was made on the popular online forum Nate Pann.
The netizen who created the post started off by sharing:
"I lived in Ansan when I was little, and there was a two-year-younger boy who lived on the second floor of our apartment building. I used to hang out with him all the time and his name was Choi Soobin. He was on his Nintendo a lot, and he wouldn't lend it to me. I remember watching him play the 'Crayon Shin-chan' game, the time when I took his Nintendo away from him and Soobin cried afterward."

The poster added that their families were close at that time and they would help each other, saying:
"Our families were pretty close. When we ran out of rice, we used to go to Soobin's house to get some. They used to come to ours if they ran out of side dishes."
Unfortunately, they naturally fell apart after the netizen's family moved to another area.
Then, the alleged childhood best friend of TXT Soobin shared interesting facts about the K-pop idol, revealing:
"Soobin loved his dimple so much that he always bragged about it. He also loved his mom a lot. He wasn't a mama's boy or anything; he was just a boy who really loves his mom."

They continued:
"Soobin was a super kind kid. His older brother disliked me very much though. It was probably because I bothered them too much. There was one time when I made Soobin cry and his older brother scolded me."
TXT Soobin's Supposed Childhood Best Friend Shares When They Realized The Idol Was Their Neighbor
Toward the end of the Nate Pann post, the netizen revealed when they realized that TXT Soobin was their friend in the past.
They said:
"The other day, I was watching some videos on YouTube. I happened to come across Soobin and Arin's collaborative performance and I was like, 'I've seen that face somewhere. Could it possibly be the runny-nose baby Choi Soobin that I used to know?' So, I messaged my mom with a picture of Soobin, asking if that was Soobin that we knew."
Their mom's reply was, "Oh, yes. That's him. He grew up looking exactly the same as himself from the past."

"It felt weird," the netizen further said, "I was like, 'That neighbor was Soobin? Wow. You really don't know what's going to happen in life.' That day, I found a photo of Soobin, my younger sibling, and I in our old album at home. He absolutely looks the same. The face that's covered is me and the baby in the middle is my younger sibling. Anyway, I hope he's doing well and that he's happy."
Along with the lengthy message, TXT Soobin's supposed childhood best friend attached screenshots of their conversation with their mom and their photo with the K-pop idol when they were still kids (see image below).
