just saw this photo from the Spotify session where skz recorded a live version of Just a Little. would've been in the second half of 2025 but I don't know exactly when.
#I_N is wearing 2 cross necklaces.
makes me wonder if he's the one who started this ot8 signalling.
I'd previously assumed that I.N's love of cross symbolism was more to do with his religiosity. Maybe part of it is also to do with his love of skz??
on stage at gov ball, 5 of the 7 members wore double cross pendants: Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Han, Felix.
Possibly I.N too? I only saw 1 cross on him, but theoretically there could've been another one under his clothes I guess.
(edit: removed wrong info about what Hyunjin was wearing.)
in the past, I've wondered whether the cross pendants that they often wear might be a Christian symbolism thing.
However, this time I'm pretty sure it's an OT8 (2*4=8) thing.
- Lee Know is an atheist so it's not Christian symbolism for him.
- all except I.N were visibly wearing *2* cross pendants.
- when the stylists choose their jewellery, they tend to mix things up a lot more.
- everyone except I.N and Hyunjin were wearing 2 cross pendants from Chrome Hearts (most of them were wearing other CH jewellery too, such as earrings and bracelets). it seems likely that most of the CH pieces are their personal possessions rather than grabbed randomly from the stylists' assortment.
ot8 signalling because Seungmin couldn't be there, perhaps??
... I can't let it go ...
4 of them are even wearing variations of the same chrome hearts necklace: 2 crosses on 1 chain.
2 times 4 equals 8, for the 8 members.
given that there is still no brand deal with ch, and in fact several of them have conflicting brand deals where they might get in trouble for openly flaunting a competing brand's products, this feels quite deliberate.
makes me wonder if all 8 of them have similar necklaces, and the only reason we didn't see them on everyone today is that Chan and Jeongin didn't want to piss off their brand sponsors. (and Hyunjin & Seungmin weren't there.)
#Changbin loves his gold jewellery (the others all tend to wear silver). it looks like he's got 1, maybe 2, new gold CH bracelets.
I tend not to share too many airport photos but I still look at them ahaha don't judge me ...
anyway there are 6 members on their way to New York right now, and 5 of them were prominently displaying #ChromeHearts jewellery in their airport looks.
(I didn't see any on I.N but that might be because of his Damiani brand deal??)
this is a new record for most skz members being loud about CH at one public appearance.
@dailykpoppics I see 5 separate #ChromeHearts pieces in this photo (glasses, 3 pendants on the necklace, ring) and 2 more that might be CH but not enough detail to confirm (earring, bracelet)
Bang Chan might have been the first skz member to go hard on CH but #Changbin's giving him a run for his money.
new #LeeKnow vlog starting out strong with a #ChromeHearts glasses sighting in the first shot
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.)

Channie, Changbin, Han and Seungmin all wearing #ChromeHearts jewellery in their 8th anniversary photos.
Chan, Changbin and Han tend to wear something CH almost all the time, but Seungmin only seems to wear his on meaningful days I think ...?
Seungmin's new pendant is similar to the crossball pendant that Han wore for at least a year before Seungmin started wearing it (either the same pendant or the same design, but I suspect it was the same pendant, cos Han never wore it again after Seungmin started wearing it).
Lookit my skz
