When trying to shade smooth the model, it makes this gap between the faces. Why does it do that, and how can I fix it?

Question

I'm still relativly new to blender and I've been working on a model. I'm trying to clean up the topology and smoothe the model, but when trying to apply "shade smooth" (while subdivision modiffier is on in both cases) these gaps appear between the faces. Why does it happen and how can i fix it?

Hello, overlapping vertices, inside faces, flipped faces? Maybe share your file... — moonboots, Feb 22 '24 at 11:34
