i’m a babyengene so please be kind 🥹

this is more about the logistics of the world they’re in and it’s “rules” about vampire anatomy.

i’ve gathered that the boys don’t completely know the rules of vampire anatomy themselves considering how in “brought the heat back”they don’t know how to “delete” each other and instead cause each other to keep respawningz it might be intentional due to their bond, but in the “dark blood” concept cinema they seem to have another rivalry where they battle (over sooha? even though they all were her knights who protected her? i still don’t understand the sooha situation in terms of love triangle since i read she’s depicted as dating heesung in one moment, k from &team is in love with her, and she refers to sunghoon as “my love” in the dark blood film) and attack each other in another violent but non fatal manner.

however, in the “untold” concept video, their story is set in a place called riverfield where humans are aware of vampires, turn on them, and know how to “delete” them permanently by damaging / detaching their heads (much like the twilight vampires, though i know they have different rules in that world than enhypen’s).

so they’re immortal, but not completely? are they stuck in a timeloop like TXT?

who are the god of death and the son of day? didn’t they overcome the daylight thing and are semi immortal?

also, are they alive or undead? from the “fever” and “brought the heat back” music videos, they light up the same way humans would in thermal scopes (weapon optics that pick up thermal radiation).

also in the “untold” concept video, their veins appear under transillumination (holding a flashlight up to your skin in darkness essentially) and it appears the same as a humans, signaling that there is deoxygenated blood coursing through their veins much like a human’s (i’m not sure if this was a scientific oversight of the directors or if i’m the one who’s incorrect). so they wouldn’t be cold blooded, right? especially since they still react to temperature despite not feeling much pain (vampire plot armor).

also in the “outside” music video, their shadows run away from them reminiscent to the tales of peter pan only they’re more of doppelgängers than they are shadows. what caused that and what does it have to do with vampires? are there other magical elements and creatures other than vampires and wolves?

TLDR:

i guess my main questions are —

are they warm blooded?

are they alive or undead?

who are the god of death and the son of day?

are they in a timeloop?

what’s their mission? why did sooha turn them and send them into the future?

what is the “desire” / “darkness” / “shadows” they fight so vehemently? why does it seem to affect vampires? does it affect the wolves too?

why were they at the gates of hell? is that where the god of death is? are their souls that important to him/her?

what was sooha the princess of?

why was there a “good” sooha and an “evil” sooha in the “orange blood” concept video?

why does enhypen fight over sooha when they were all meant to protect her as a group?

why did they lose their memories?

what did they mean by “fever”? was it thirst for blood without the guidance of their sire or more of a… yk… suggestive kind of thing?

who’s in the sooha love… triangle? square? hexagon? what’s going on there? also is she supposed to represent the fans? is that why our “genes” are connected by destiny (paraphrased the definition of “engene” lol).

(^ i’ll admit i’m not very interested in the “self insert” fan service aspect so i’ll opt out of that for myself but i AM very interested in the rest of their lore and observing the storyline as a passenger / fly on the wall– but if other engene like that yippee!! i’m happy for you!! don’t let me get in the way of your fun!!)

i could honestly keep going so i’m sorry for all the questions but besides their music being amazing, their lore was really the nail in the coffin for turning me into an engene!!
