"Minseok is one of the top three best friends of my life. We posted a picture that day, and the reason why we took that picture was that they feel so good now," Leo explained the skinship they had.
"Minseok (Xiumin) performed that day, and I couldn't perform that day, so the three men drank wine. We have a lot of skinship. It's not a strange thing."
Adding, "I took a picture that day, saying it was cute, and the picture was also cute," Leo further narrated.
The VIXX member also drew laughter when he revealed that he realized he said "I love you" when he woke up in the morning, and he immediately deleted the caption because it made him cringe, but it already circulated among K-pop fans.
Nevertheless, Leo clarified that he and Xiumin just really liked kinship, such as hugging and touching, and even boasted how close they are by sharing, "That friend (Xiumin) also knows my house password."
