TXT‘s Soobin recently updated Instagram with a photo dump, wishing MOAs a happy new year.
One photo stood out among all. Soobin was pictured in bed with his arm out on the empty side.

There’s nothing like beginning the new year more delulu than ever! Naturally, some began creating edits of the photo, adding someone to Soobin’s side.
It’s Soobin and Tobin. Everyone can stop being delulu now. pic.twitter.com/Q1LlKIP0hY

Yet, many had to stop and wonder: Why exactly does Soobin have a mirror above his bed? It was obviously a mirror selfie taken while lying down in bed.

For many netizens, the picture raised eyebrows as a mirror on the ceiling above a bed is frequently associated with sexual activity so that one can watch while doing it. It can even be referred to as a “sex mirror.”
However, HGTV provided a wholesome reason behind a mirror on the ceiling in the bedroom. According to HGTV, “The mirrors open up spaces and reflect light, and your bedroom will look brighter from whatever natural or artificial light it has. Mirrored ceilings can also add a touch of glamour to a bedroom, and they work well with a contemporary or art deco style.” On the other hand, Feng Shui experts claim that “mirrors directly above your bed (or sofa) can disrupt calm, peaceful feelings because of the weight hanging over your head.”
In Feng Shui, mirrors are thought to bounce energy around the bedroom. This may result in restlessness and amplify the worries in your mind as you struggle to fall asleep. Any extra anxiety at night when you’re trying to stay calm makes it nearly impossible to get the sleep you need.

So, it’s a bold design choice, no matter what.
