Minsung is a pairing in the Stray Kids fandom.
In Reality
In real life, Han and Lee Know present themselves as very good friends, and colleagues. They seem to enjoy each other's company, and affection.
Han and Lee Know call each other petnames, hold each other's hands, offer other soft and supportive touches, and spend occasions outside of work together. Han has even referred to Lee Know as his husband, and soulmate, also asking Lee Know to pick him to be his boyfriend[1]. Lee Know has also referred to Han as his boyfriend. At times they have expressed that some of their 'flirting' happens more often or likely if there are cameras around, filming them. This may lead some to believe that many of their actions and words are fanservice.
Minsungers may either agree, happy just to have a cute "relationship" presented to them, or disagree. If they disagree, they may cite instances where it looked as though Han or Lee Know hesitated but wanted to touch each other, or times when they were touching, but appeared to be concerned the cameras might catch such actions. There are many compilation videos of their interactions, as well as analyses.
Fans have translated something Han said, and interpreted it to mean that footage of just he and Lee Know is more likely to end up on the cutting room floor[2][3], which would be quite strange if much of their relationship was fanservice. If it was fanservice, wouldn't more footage be a good thing for the editors? Fans have wondered if them receiving less screen time is because their relationship is a bit too much at times, but it's also possible that since the group is such a large size, it wouldn't make sense to include too much footage of less than three members at a time. In episode 8 of 2 Kids Show, HAN said that vlogs where it's just the two of them are unusable because of how and what they communicate to each other[4].

Dayum the way seungmin said "it's time to say goodbye" right after minho joining them sends💀💀
[MultiFandom8isFate[6] replied to heyseungminyourelying.what5282]
Exactly. Right? Like would everything you do be edited out if you and Lee Know are left alone with each other? 🤨😳😏🤣
[rayne333[7] replied to MultiFandom8isFate]
yes 🤣 when han pulled him back he literally said “i want more screen time” 💀
Candids, Photo Shoots & SelCas
23 April 2020 SelCa
Otherwise referred to as 0423, was the date of a SelCa where Lee Know appeared to be sidled up against HAN, with HAN's arm around him. Then a SelCa taken using the mirror from across the room was shared, and it showed that Lee Know was actually positioned with his leg thrown over HAN's waist. Fans 'celebrate' the anniversary of these images[8][9][10].
15 January 2024 Candid
The photos were taken at the airport.

"Dates"
Han & Lee Know, at times, do things apart from their group. These occasions have been called 'date's by both the boys and fans. Additionally, sometimes a member who would have ended up third-wheeling leaves the two of them alone together to "enjoy their date."
20 February 2023
Known as their "Pool Date" in Sydney, Australia during their Maniac tour. A fan posted a breakdown/analysis of that date[11].

Fandom
Fans of the ship have called themselves 'Minsungers.'
Fans have referred to Han as Lee Know's 'manual[12]' and Bang Chan has said that Han is the only one who can control Lee Know[13]. Han appears to have an understanding of Lee Know that others do not, and Lee Know's affections for Han seem to make it so that he's willing to listen to Han more often.
Antis
Some fans feel that being an anti, either toward Minsung shippers, or toward Minsung itself carries the air of jumping on the bandwagon, saying that it's similar to saying "I'm not like other girls."[14]
Some Stray Kids fans have even called for the separation of Han and Lee Know, out of their hatred for the ship, or shippers:
Someone responded to the above sentiment with:
yes yes completely tear apart a genuine duo bc ppl like to talk about how sweet they are together, as if div1 already doesnt reduce their screen time tgt
Challenges & Exchanges
Characterization
if you need help when writing dialogue for m1mo: think about exactly what m1mo wants to say to j1sg. then do Not write it. make him say it in a way where he forces j1sg to jump through a ton of hoops to understand what he means. j1sg is smart, he will get it bc he knows m1mo best
Controversies
As with any RPS, people say one should not ship real people. Likewise, a popular defense against shipping them is that it supposedly suggests males cannot be affectionate with each other without the risk of being called gay.
[SeungminRealWife[19]]
Stop shipping idols it can and will [h]urt their friendship just like it happened went toxic Directioners shipped Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles
[Ash-cu9qy[20] replied to SeungminRealWife]
Skz themselves have said that they sometimes watch fans edits and they obviously know about shipping culture among kpop fandoms just like every other idol. Minsung is one of the biggest ship in skz so I doubt they don't know about it by now. They have even acknowledged the ship name "minsung" many times by now. Despite everything their friendship have only gotten stronger over the years and they still call each other soulmates and openly show their love and affection for each other. If they were ever uncomfortable with anything their relationship wouldn't have remained this strong throughout the years. For example during skz's survival show/debut era changlix was another ship who was just as popular as Minsung. Probably newer stays wouldn't understand how big changlix was back then. But at one point after debut it was clear that changlix got uncomfortable and tired with the constant shipping jokes and distanced from each other until the ship lost its popularity. They became close again once the ship's popularity decreased and even joke about it now. Minsung on the other hand have never let the ship affect their relationship. Now I'm not saying anyone should push the shipping agenda infront of them or excuse any weird shippers behaviors. But I'm just saying that minsung just has too strong of a friendship to ever be changed by shippers or any other factors. Nothing will change their relationship!
Fans of the ship have also responded with humor, such as in this[22] tweet, showing how fans are not the only participants in shipping members.
Stray Kids Response
It is believable the performance group does not mind shipping, at least to a degree. Leader Bang Chan and group member Changbin are often seen making remarks that would fuel the fire of shipping. So much so that Changbin is called the President of the Minsung Society, and Bang Chan the Vice President. I.N has been referred to as their 'professional third-wheel[24].'
[beigeeeidgaf[25]]
other members when they are with minsung.chan - the cupid
😭
changbin - the 'u see this' (always making sure stays will have a tea
seungmin - the cover up (always do everything just to cover them)
hyunjin - the homewrecker
felix - the side eye (he'll never say anything but his eyes and face be tired)
ayen - the dad (he's simply the best thirdwheeler)
