I don't think Hunk is supposed to be African American. I've seen a lot of people headcanon him as Native Hawaiian. I don't know if that's true or not, though.

Also, Hunk/Lance does actually get a decent amount of fanart. I don't really like Sheith, but some of the shippers actually really like Hunk/Lance and draw cute art. Johannathemad, for instance, who is a big name fanartist on tumblr and likes Sheith drew some really cute Hunk/Lance art: http://johannathemad.tumblr.com/post/150195024987/carly-rae-jepsen-voice-i-really-really-really#notes. 15k+ notes is pretty good.

AYRT

Native Hawaiian? That's actually really cool and it makes me hope that's what the creators intended. :) Not very often indigenous Hawaiian people get characters to identify with.

Also, I do know Hunk/Lance has some followers, and truthfully I feel like the Hunk/Lance love from Sheith fans is less "pair the spares" and more "actually enjoying this pairing", which is...not the feeling I get from pairings like Shiro/Allura or especially Shiro/Shay, but what I meant was that Hunk/Lance doesn't have much at all compared to the two juggernaut ships, and the pairing is hurt even further by Lance being part of one of them. If you look on AO3 there isn't that much Hunk/Lance fics period, and about half of what is there is just like, side Hunk/Lance with endgame Lance/Keith, that type of stuff.

Also jesus that fanart is fucking cute. It kinda hurts though, makes me wish this pairing were the juggernaut lol. Fuck Sheith and Klance both if I could get this! :P

There might be some "pair the spares" thing going on with Sheith shippers who like Hance, but I think it makes sense for people who like one to ship the other too, considering both pairings are based on established friendship rather than rivalry like Keith/Lance. Both strike me as a "comfy" and sweet type of ship.

People assume that because when a screen is showing their thoughts, Hunk briefly thinks of spam musubi and shrimp-pineapple skewers which are both foods pretty strongly associated with Hawaii, so a kind of nice subtle way to hint at it.

Native Hawai'ian makes a lot of sense for Hunk!
