TWICE’s Sana showed sibling-like exchanges with Stray Kids’ Bang Chan and highlighted their unchanged closeness. Recently, a video titled “Is this okay for an interview? A real battle of spears and spears by world-class kids” was released on the YouTube channel “117.” The two revealed that they were both busy with activities and had last met two to three years ago. Sana said apologetically, “We hardly meet. We do contact each other sometimes, but unintentionally I end up ignoring it. When I try to contact Chan (Bang Chan), I realize that I had been ignoring his messages.” Sana happily said, “What is easy is that he is a guest with whom I do not need to use honorific language.” When Bang Chan confided, “With so many cameras and so many people like this, casual speech does not come out easily,” Sana joked, “So you’ve completely become a celebrity?” When Bang Chan said that he had watched the DEX episode, Sana asked, “Did you originally like Mr. DEX?” Bang Chan answered, “As a fellow man, he is somehow cool.” To this, Sana revealed, “Chan became manly at some point and started taking off his clothes on stage, and that became a big topic. I contacted him about that. I said, ‘It’s gross.’” Bang Chan exposed, “I am always being scolded.” Sana said, “About that, I feel like I should not say too much. You are already an adult too. If you were still a child, it would be a little gross.” To Bang Chan’s words, “Even though I’m an adult, I get treated like a baby so much by Sana-noona,” Sana recalled his appearance 14 years ago and said, “Because when I first met you, you were a child. You were a child with only long arms and legs, you know!” The two continued their sibling-like exchanges afterward, making fans smile. ・TWICE Sana & Stray Kids Bang Chan too!
