What ATEEZ Seonghwa's 庚辰 day pillar says about his ideal partner — read from his birth chart, not from an interview.
In Korean astrology, Seonghwa's ideal partner is soft rather than sharp. His 庚辰 day pillar — the part of a Saju chart that describes what someone is drawn to — carries 乙, the gentlest form of Wood, hidden inside his own day branch where it combines directly with him. He is drawn to someone patient and flexible who bends where he holds firm.
Seonghwa's day pillar is tempered metal set into moist spring earth. Precise, refined, finished to a high standard, with edges on it.
He is a perfectionist and it shows. He holds a line, he notices what is off, and he is not especially willing to let things go once he has decided how they should be.
But what he is drawn to is not another version of that. Two people with edges do not make a softer object, they just make more friction, and his chart does not reach for it.
It reaches for something soft and green growing right beside him. A gentle, flexible partner — patient, warm, quietly creative, someone who bends where he holds firm and does not experience his precision as a criticism. Not another blade. A softness that rounds him out.
Seonghwa's 辰 holds 乙 Wood, 癸 Water, and 戊 Earth as the principal.
Against his 庚 day master those are 정재, 상관 and 편인. 정재 is the direct partner indicator — the settled, committed form of it rather than the fleeting one — and it sits at the front of his spouse palace as 乙, the softest, most yielding kind of Wood there is.
There is something more specific here. 庚 and 乙 combine. His day stem and the first stem hidden inside his own day branch pair up directly, which classical texts call 암합, a hidden combination. The softness is not something he goes looking for. It is already attached to him.
Seonghwa was born on 3 April 1998, in the 卯 month — spring, with Wood at full strength and a 乙卯 month pillar stacking more of it above.
For a 庚 day master that means the thing he is drawn to is everywhere in the chart, not just in the spouse palace. 《穷通宝鉴》 on 庚金 in this month reaches for 丁 to shape the metal and 甲 to feed the fire, which is a warming prescription rather than a hardening one.
Nothing in the chart asks him to be sharper. The whole thing is pointed at being finished rather than at being harder.
Read from stem combination, branch harmony, clash and 원진. Why these four →
Both halves — 庚 and 乙 combine at the stem, 辰 and 酉 at the branch — and the stem is the same soft Wood already hidden in his own spouse palace. The textbook answer for this pillar.
丁 is what the classics ask for on a 庚 born in spring, with the same 辰酉 branch harmony underneath it. Shaping rather than softening.
Cooler and quieter. 癸 is already hidden in his branch, so this reinforces something the chart has rather than introducing anything new.
戌 against 辰 is a direct clash on the spouse palace.
卯 with 辰 is 해 — and his own month branch is 卯, so a version of this friction is already sitting inside his chart.
Another 辰 makes 자형, self-punishment. The same pillar twice is not a match here.
Wooyoung has the same 암합 structure — his day stem combining with a stem hidden in his own day branch — which is uncommon enough that two in one group is worth noting. Wooyoung's 壬午 reading →
Two full charts read against each other is the actual method. Compare two birth dates and see where they support each other and where they push.
COMPARE TWO CHARTSSeonghwa was born on 3 April 1998, giving him a 庚辰 day pillar and a 乙卯 month. Idol birth times are not public, so this works from three pillars rather than four. How day pillars work, and how far this method goes →
Your day pillar comes from your birth date, not your birth month, which is why a star sign cannot give it to you. Free, and about a minute.
FIND MY DAY PILLARSomeone gentle and flexible. His 庚辰 day pillar is tempered Metal in moist earth, and the soft Wood hidden in his spouse palace combines directly with his day stem — so he is drawn to a patient, quietly creative partner who bends where he holds firm.
Another perfectionist. Two people with edges produce friction rather than a softer result, and his chart does not reach for that at all.
庚辰, from his birth date of 3 April 1998. In Saju the day pillar is the relationship indicator: the stem is the person and the branch is the spouse palace, 배우자궁.
乙酉 is the textbook answer, combining at both the stem and the branch with the same soft Wood already hidden in his spouse palace. 丁酉 and 癸酉 also fit. 戌 clashes with his spouse palace, 卯 forms 해, and another 辰 makes 자형.
His 辰 branch holds 乙 Wood, 癸 Water and 戊 Earth — 정재, 상관 and 편인 against his day master. The 정재 is his direct partner star, and because 庚 and 乙 combine, it pairs with his day stem in what the classics call 암합, a hidden combination.
