Han Dong-hoon is an X-like person.

He is an X-like person.
If you touch him, he grows.
The more you touch him, the more he grows.
If you keep touching him, he will eventually stand tall on his own.
Seeing how Min-seok kept touching him despite knowing this, it seems Min-seok is a bit slow.
You can tell by how he poked and prodded,
turning Dong-hoon—who has no one to watch his back—into the number one preferred successor.
* Note: X is exactly what everyone is thinking of.
