Now, as you all probably know, this clip contains the legendary Minsung kiss. However I wanted to point out some things that just don't add up to me.

1) When Han comes towards Lee Know, he says he will give him a kiss. Lee Know immediately makes kissy lips at Han, but Han tells him something like "No, on your neck." Then he comes and hugs Lee Know from behind.

-I don't know about you, but if I had a crush, and they told me they were going to kiss me on my neck, then suddenly they walked behind me and hugged me, and put there lips on my neck, my heart would probably start to beat faster. However, if you look at the heart beat measurer down in the bottom right corner at minute 7:32, when Han started to hug Lee Know and put his lips on his neck, you can see that his heart rate went down from 78 bpm to 77 bpm. Just something to note for later.

2) After the kiss, Lee Know immediately gets away from Han, and you can see his heart rate reach a max of 97 bpm. However, he sits back down and calms himself, and you can see his heart rate slowly decreasing from 97 to 95 to 93 to 92 bpm.

3) After he calms himself down a little, you can hear Binnie yell "Kim Seungmin! Kim Seungmin!" pushing Seungmin on to go towards Lee Know.

-It is this part that I can't seem to understand. If Han kissing Lee Know made his heart rate max at 97 bpm, how was Lino able to reach the 100 bpm? 

I can think of four possibilities.

Option 1: Is because Han started pushing on his back.

-But what I don't understand is, before the kiss, when Han hugged him, Lee Know's heart rate went down. So it doesn't add up that after the kiss, Han laying on his back would spike his heart up to 100 bpm.

Option 2: Is because Han was pushing him back and forth. 

-I'm just adding this possibility, because moving around can make your heart rate go up (as shown earlier in the video with Han and the push-ups.) However, I see this as the least likely possibility, because I doubt that that little amount of movement is able to cause Lino's heart rate to reach that high.

Option 3: Is because Lino became the center of a big commotion.

-As seen in multiple different videos (examples being in some older Idol Radio content as well as his first DeKira episode), Lee know gets pretty shy. So him being the center of all this commotion as well as just dealing with the kiss, could be the cause for the 100bpm.

Option 4: Is because Kim Seungmin started making kissing sounds next to his ear. 

-For this i can see two possibilities. 1: because the kissing sound is making him think about Han's kiss OR 2: because the kissing sound is making him think about Seungmin kissing him.

-To give you some more things which could back up Possibility 2 of Option 4:

(1) As stated before, Binnie yelled out Seungmin's name, which Lee Know almost definitely heard, because Binnie's voice is just loud af. Hearing Seungmin's name could most likely put Seungmin's image into lee Know's head, then hearing the kissing sounds in his ear could put the idea of Seungmin kissing him into his head as well.

(2) Lee Know starts pushing Seungmin away with his elbow. I can think of two reasons why:

-a) He doesn't like Seungmin being close to him. 

-He has said multiple times (examples being in some of his vlives) that he doesn't "like" Seungmin, and of course all us 2minners know of the divorce concept. However, one thing that disproves this, is that there are multiple videos out there which show that Lee Know does care for Seungmin, and does want him close to him, so I highly doubt this is the reason for pushing him away.

-b) He knows that Seungmin being close to him would spike his heart rate.

-I don't know how legitimate this claim might be, but I'm just putting this out as a possibility.

One more thing I would like to point out:

-When Seungmin makes kissing sounds in Lee know's right ear (according to video, idk if it is mirrored) You can see that Han is also making kissing sounds more towards Lee Know's left ear. However, following Lino's pupils, (to the best of my abilities, idk I could have missed something) Lee Know only looks in two directions, forward at the ground, and to his right....hmmmm interesting, would you not say?? If it was Han's kissing sounds that spiked his heart rate, wouldn't you think he would look towards his left at least once?

That being said, Case 1 is just me putting forth something I did not understand, and trying to find a cause. In the end, only Lino knows what made his heart rate reach 100bpm. However, I believe this moment has at least a certain significance towards 2min, despite being a highly popular Minsung moment.

Why did Binnie call out Seungmin's name instead of any other member? Was it just because he was the closest one? or was it because Binnie knew something we don't? Who knows, but it is still interesting to think about.

Anyways, I hope to see comments discussing more about this moment. Feel free to leave your own 2min observations in the comments as well! To all Minsungers who have fallen onto this chapter, feel free to add in your Minsung rebuttals, However, please keep everything friendly and no hate to any of the idols involved!!

Hope you enjoyed Case 1, and I will be back with Case 2 very soon <3
