Like other idols, just after their debut, ENHYPEN came up with an ending chant that featured the group placing all of their hands together and chanting the group name.

Recently, a fan had them recreate the chant during a video call fan sign, initially exciting fans to see the idols doing it again after some time. In recent years, the group has simplified the chanting, counting instead of repeating “Enha.”

After this clip was shared, it was placed side-by-side with another video of the group doing the chant, only the added video was from just after their debut. The fan sharing commented that the group didn’t seem as “smiley” anymore, expressing sadness over this.

Others shared similar feelings over the now viral clip, with some theorizing that the effects of being an active popular group had impacted their energy levels. In particular, some called out the group’s non-stop schedule over the past two years.
the early year of their career was pure happiness only. this kpop industry sucks and their company is dumbass for exhausting them so much. https://t.co/8uiA3QNWAW

Of course, some fans see this from another perspective, remarking that the group have just matured since their debut.
This is definitely a possibility, as the group is approaching its fourth anniversary, meaning the members are close four years older than in the first video and are now experienced idols.
this was sunghoon’s favorite thing to do before :') but they’ve just grown up and became more mature and that’s okay ! https://t.co/nQdRAijWFB

ENHYPEN always work hard for fans, so it makes sense that fans would reciprocate this love by showing concern.
