Get the Houston Astrosmug. Astro is an amazing person. They're smart, cute and such a great friend. They are also very pretty and they have beautiful eyes. Astro is a gamer and enjoys playing gun games and they watch horror stuff. Everyone should have a friend named Astro because it's a great experience being friend with one.

Get the Astromug. A South Korean boy band formed by Fantagio Entertainment who debuted in 2016. It is composed of six members: MJ, Jinjin, Cha Eun-woo, Moonbin, Rocky, and Yoon San-ha. Astro is an under-appreciated kpop boy group overflowing with talents and visuals. Not only are they blessed with amazing vocalists and rappers, but all the members can dance extremely well! Several songs in their discography were even written and composed by some of their own members; Rocky’s ‘Our Spring’, Jinjin’s ‘All Good’, and MJ’s ‘gemini’, to name a few. Astro’s music, choreography, and concepts are versatile and broad, with the members being able to pull of anything and everything. You are sure to find at least a few songs, if not all that suite your taste. All the members are balls of sunshine and exude chaotic energy which is sure to lift your spirits every time. They are acknowledged as always being kind and considerate of others, including fans, fellow idols, and their staff. In conclusion, stan Astro, stan talent!
1: Hey, what’s that catchy song by that one kpop boy group with perfectly synchronized dancing?
2: Oh, do you mean Astro’s ‘Should’ve Held On’ or ‘Baby’ or ‘Knock’ or basically any song by them ever?
1: All of them are amazing! Should I stan Astro?
2: You should! I promise you won’t regret it!
