I have seen skz being gay just SO MUCH you guys and I don't know if I've ever seen Changbin and Seungmin seem gayer than while all of skz listen to AKMU's "How Can I Love the Heartbreak" together
Hmm. Immediately after confirming that the name of the group is *not* Straight Kids, Chan looks (pointedly??) into the camera and says "We need to be clear."
I don't know if we'll ever know why Woojin left.
But here's a wild theory (that I'm sure I'm not the first person to posit): some skz members seem, uh, a bit queer sometimes.
If some of them are genuinely queer, and someone in the group isn't as comfortable with queerness, that might be a motivating factor in why they left.
Something I noticed yesterday when watching the very last livestream in which Woojin appears: I.N says: "Stray Kids' color is rainbow!" Bang Chan repeats his words. Woojin also cheers for rainbow. It's a bit awkward, and then someone changes the subject.
I don't think they're necessarily using "rainbow" as code for "queer" but I don't think it's out of the question either.
The first livestream after Woojin left was an episode of #ChansRoom with all 8 members (I think the first time they'd all been on Chan's Room at once??)
Bang Chan makes a point of getting Changbin to confirm that the name of the team is Stray Kids, *not* Straight Kids.
Seungmin says to Changbin: When I wake you up in the morning, I always smile like a dad, after seeing you sleeping sound.
Changbin: Why? Because I'm cute?
Seungmin: Do you remember? When you saw me smiling after you woke up?
Changbin: I remember.
Seungmin: Really? What did you think then?
Changbin: Just ... why is he in my room? Why did he enter my room in the morning? You just drop by others' rooms for no special reason.
Seungmin: Yes. I just go to your room because it's fun to see you sleeping.
... shortly after this, Changbin asks Felix to cover the camera, and then we hear thumping (?) sounds, and Seungmin yelling like someone is hitting him.
There are some cute #SeungBin moments in this livestream from 2019
They get a bit too feisty for I.N, who intervenes to make them calm down
A couple of minutes later, #Seungmin's zoning out a bit, and #Changbin asks him what he's thinking about.
Seungmin: You.
Changbin: Seungmin, what's wrong? why are you so sweet?
(Meanwhile, Felix has been allowed to have a sip of Seungmin's coffee, and has turned into a coffee-fuelled gremlin.)
Some members talk about their significant jewellery in response to a question during a livestream
#Changbin has a chunky bracelet that was a birthday gift from #BangChan, and that he never takes off.
Chan and Changbin had matching bracelets, but Changbin lost his.
(Subtitles are patchy in this video, and there are no subtitles on the bit where Changbin seems to explain how he lost the matching bracelet. My own Korean is way too sketchy and I cannot translate this bit.)

#Felix is being especially clingy and affectionate towards #Seungmin in this livestream
(this is about the time things were secretly going south with Woojin and there are some parts of this livestream that feel a bit ... uncomfortable?? but the #SeungLix bits are sweet)
Just a teensy #MinSung snippet
They're all leaning their heads over the conference table to show off their hair colours.
It's not immediately obvious, but Lee Know's hand is briefly in the middle of Han's back, pressing him down against the table as he bends over.
(I still can't clip on youtube for some reason, so this is a link to a timestamp)
