## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP DURATION ━ 2014- 2016
## . .◜﹫ CAUSE OF BREAKUP ━ miscommunication / unloyalty
## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP OVERVIEW ━ scott and jiyeon , or jane , met when they were training together. at first they were nothing more than that , just trainees who trained together , and talked sometimes. but they started to form a friendship , that very , very quickly turned into a more sexual friends with benefits relationship. every now and then , though , they would call it off and stop , but would quickly fall right back into each other. this cycle continued for awhile , and was what made up most of their relationship.

however , scott misinterpreted things. he thought the two were a lot more serious than jiyeon did , even though they had never really clarified anything with each other if they were , or if they weren't , even with the amount of times that they would call their relationship off. scott had debuted before jiyeon did , and when jiyeon had debuted with momoland , and started tours and traveling to different places , she started seeing other people , while seeing scott. jiyeon had took it that they were just having fun , unlike scott. when scott had found out , he was so upset , and called it off.

the two hadn't ended on the best terms , since they both thought very , very different things about their relationship. scott even wrote his first single "don't" about her and what had happened. but he soon realized it was a little wrong of him to do , and has never told anyone , except close friends and the members , who that song was about. even with being asked by the public to say who it was about , he wouldn't and hasn't. jiyeon had even messaged him later about this , thanking him , and they were both able to have a decent conversation , but haven't talked after that.

## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP DURATION ━ 2011 - 2011 / 2019 - present
## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP OVERVIEW ━ elsie and scott were childhood friends , because their moms were best friends , as were scott's father and elsie's other mom. they could even call themselves babyhood friends , as their parents had them meet right when the two were born , which was not too far from one another , scott was born just two months before elsie was. their parents never forced them to be in a relationship , like saying "they're going to marry someday" or anything weird like that. they were just babies , and then toddlers , and then kids , who were the best of friends.

they were so close , even , that when they were fourteen , they practiced their first kisses with each other , which was the subtle foreshadow of their relationship in the future. but nothing came of it. when scott left and moved to korea , the two stayed best friends , even with their new time differences and the long distance between them. one week , scott came back home to visit , and of course , he spent time with elsie. but this time it was different. maybe because they were older now , both single , both finally seeing each other in person. . . and they developed feelings for the other. in just a short week , they formed a relationship , and they knew if they could maintain a friendship for years far away , they could maintain a relationship just the same.

things got tough of course. couples need to embrace the other , spend time together , etc. so , elsie moved to korea to be closer to him. their relationship was mostly kept hidden from the public , but was eventually revealed , and the two became engaged in 2023.

## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP TIMELINE ━ friends ៸៸ dating + bandmates ៸៸
## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP DURATION ━ 2012 - 2014
## . .◜﹫ CAUSE OF BREAKUP ━ the loss of jun
## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP OVERVIEW ━ for the whole time they knew each other , syunji and jun were so in love. they were young , and a lot of people didn't respect them that much , but all of that didn't really matter. the only barrier they had was jun's mother , who was literally clinically insane and homophobic , so they kept it from her as much as they could. in 2014 the boys got a few of their friends from school , and jun's younger brother , into a band they called pentalogy.

it was definitely not the most successful band , but they had so much fun with their first song. syunji had amazing vocals , and the boys with their instruments were truly incredible as well. they were basking in the glory , and as we're syunji and jun together , until somehow word got out that syunji and jun were dating. jun's mother , just getting out of the hospital , heard this and murdered her son. when syunji found out , he was absolutely heart broken. he didn't talk for days , his grades went down , everything was awful. and it was even worse that the death was getting media coverage because of their band.

syunji almost didn't debut with sugar strike because of his depressive state , but he knew jun would want him to take this opportunity. for years , the things syunji would do would be based off of what he thought jun would want for him , or what he thinks would be best for him. syunji will always love jun , just a little , which is what has scared off potential partners before , except for one.

## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP TIMELINE ━ acquaintances ៸៸ privately dating ៸៸ on & off again. . . like , all the time ៸៸ publicly dating
## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP DURATION ━ 2017 - present
## . .◜﹫ RELATIONSHIP OVERVIEW ━ syunji and taehyung met multiple times in multiple different places , mostly all because of their jobs , though. they were always sat close to each other during award shows , and they would talk lightly , but never anything too much. taehyung was interested in syunji first , though , and asked scott for his number when the cameras weren't around. the two started talking , casually at first , nothing really that serious , and before you knew it , they were dating. syunji had a few opportunities before taehyung to date , but whenever he warned them about his past love , and how it still affected them , it scared them off. but not taehyung. he stayed.

they had a very complex relationship for awhile , though. they were always on again , off again , and when they were off , while syunji would be upset that he didn't have taehyung with him , taehyung would have some flings on the side. it crushed syunji whenever this happened , because he didn't want to lose the love of his life again. when they were on again , they had a talk , and syunji expressed this to him. they talked for hours and hours , and agreed they wouldn't let little fights or problems get in the way anymore , because they didn't want to possibly lose eachother forever.

they decided going public would help them with this goal , and it has , since they haven't broken it off since then.
