    I just saw this clip and remembered.I have heard the song he is singing on immortal songs(Korean Musician Program)before.Its called "Don't worry dear".I found the cover Ali did..see below:But for those who would rather just read the lyrics...I think this is JG's subtle sad but sweet song, that he has been singing to comfort himself, but also as a message to fans and ex fans.To the ones who have left him after all these recent events; he loved you with no regrets.To the ones who have stayed; the past is past.its time to dream new dreams.

    "My dear, don’t you worry about a thing.      let’s just sing together. My dear, all of your painful memories, just bury them in deep of your heart."

    "Just let the past be the past, it’s meaningful in that way. Just sing to the one who left you, say you loved them with no regrets.”

    "You suffered so many hardships, you lost what it meant to be new. Let out all the hardships you went through, let yourself go from the blame."

    "Just let the past be the past, it’s meaningful in that way. Let’s all sing together, say you dreamed with no regrets. Let’s all sing together, say you will dream new dreams.”

     

    P.S: If you are trying to sing along to the video with the lyrics written; you will note that toward the end.she is adlib or should I say free styling because that's the concept of the show.Take a legendary song and give new interpretation without distorting it's message.But the above are the original lyrics.

    Awww oppa.He really does wear his heart on his sleeve.He was smiling and everything and did well.I am so proud of him.But his eyes from the time he arrived at the venue till the end.They did look sad.But let's be patient, he will surely pull through.If he can perform like with so much energy even when he is like that.I believe with time he will slowly but surely bounce back to the Joon Gi who smiles and radiates happiness with his eyes.

    Interesting that Namoo seems to be controlling the pics released and using his actual facebook account or their own account....and avoiding the IG account.

    They did upload on Namoo instagram though, the rehearsal picture.But Smart move by Namoo I think.Its easier on Facebook to track trolls and imbeciles(sorry not sorry for my words but I can't be nice to people who thrive on cyber bullying and harassment when things don't go their way)who could sabotage and spread negative vibes and energy on such a good day like this.

    Oh maybe both Namoo and him are like this because they doesn't want the attention he gets over the FM to overshadow the first few updates on criminal minds.

    Having said this, but why do I still have that strong need for JG himself to upload something on IG at least after this FM?I really think it would reassure his true fans that he is ok. I mean I would like to think he is but it just gives me that extra faith.Also it would show those who are bent on assassinating his character and career that "Nah folks..you gotta come at me a little stronger than these petty issues for you to bring me down.I am a veteran for a reason".

    Anyway fighting JG!!!!

    The Vlive video, I think it's for his website not criminal minds.Namoo uploaded some shots of his feet with the shoes in the video on their insta page and captioned it.Coming soon.

    And that bad sexy boy concept photoshoot, it's not his first time doing it.he looks good though.Like when he was eating the apple.You can see his skin was glowing.

    As for those interviews by the SHR team. Just:wub:..awww

    And hooray for Seoul encore concert!!!!! Come on let's party party party!!!!Joon Gi and us...

    I checked joongi's weibo for the first time in a month and i'm suprised to see he went down to 16950000 followers approximately, like wow. He lost quite a lot, it's suprising that he loses fans for such a silly reason but at least only his true angels are left now. Criminal minds is three months away:o it so close yet it feels so far away.

    How many followers were there before?Lol funny how instagram is roughly the same though.I mean some have obviously unfollowed but it doesn't seem to be that huge.I think most of the ones who have left are the ones who recently joined.Anyway, I still feel he has significant support. He will be ok.

    @LyraYooBy the way is someone lobbying for viki to get licensing rights for criminal minds?I really really want to watch it on viki.How can we help? I really can't stand Dramafever.I don't want to watch it on random websites where annoying gambling and game ads pop up ruining the watching experience, or broken links if ep is in parts, delayed or poor translation of eng sub.Or having to watch it in poor quality when every other legit website is showing it in HD after all cast is hot and type of cinematography and genre will be cool and sleek.

    Most of all I love viki for its live comment section.The fangirling, ranting, sarcastic reactions to scenes etc etc. I feel we need to get to work soon with this so we can be ahead of the game.

    K nets fans are totally hypocrites bunch. They wanted someone who is innocent,goody two shoes artists. This is entertainment industry. hello!! those are weak will be trample on. Especially the innocent one. Just face the reality. goody two shoes and innocent person have no place in entertainment world.

    This.

    Spoiler

    This is why actors like Won Bin are failing to make a comeback.They have set an unrealistic high moral standard for him.They have put him on such a high pedestral that if he ever shattered their fantasy and make a human mistake.His image would be demolished beyond repair.And it baffles me when they accuse him of rejecting movie offers and calling him lazy and not doing what he claims to be his main profession (acting)which I think is kinda true but I don't blame him.They can't see that they are the problem.They are the reason he is holding back.

    I actually respect those artists who have refused to conform to the "goody twos image" when that is not really who they are.People can see right through it when you are faking it and respond even much more harshly when it's discovered that that is not in their core personality.Also how exhausting it must be to live that way when you are not just an artist/entertainer but also a human.

    I feel like that that image is especially crafted to shield themselves from netizen criticism.But netizens are fickle, once you have messed up, they won't remember the good you have done and will haunt you to infinity just for that perceived flaw.doesnt mean we should be shielding those who break the law, those or commit serious moral issues.

    I believe an inherently good person is a good person, whether you put up that good two image or not,  the majority sensible people not only fans will recognise that.Even if you occasionally make minor mistakes and expose your flaws or behave in a way that is slightly eccentric or deviates just a little from established cultural norms.It doesn't change the fact that your talent is your talent and no one can take that away from you.If you consistently work on delivering your best.People will still hold a healthy amount of respect for you.

    @violina

    And @minmar  

    I will be sad richard simmons if this issue makes JG fully reign in his fun, flirty, fanservice behaviors.  I know many are asking him to do so....I am NOT one of them. I wish you could BE WHO YOU WANT@luvkstyle.  

     

     

    Yap I agree.But nah I don't think he can even if he wanted to.:lol:Thats an aspect of his personality. The guy is extroverted.Even pre military 2005-2009 when he was finding his feet in the k-entertainment,when he was a bit withdrawn than he is now.There were still hints of that side of him coming through in talk shows at FM, guest appearances in variety shows, interviews with reporters. Everytime he interact with people he will always be fun and flirty.He just doesn't fit the cold, mysterious cool image these other actors have.He has too much energy.He has also been master of fan service from day one.Even when he got in mini controversies before, even when there were strange rumors about him, even when sunbae scolded him to calm down at film set.He will only sit down for 10 mins and start messing around with everyone.Maybe he might reduce it but give it a few months, he will be back to square one(or I hope he does).

    It's true that the two looked great together but it appears that by the time she came along Joon already had lost his heart.   I'm sorry for anyone hurt by this outcome but our dear IU will find someone. 

    I agree with your observations and everything you have said.But what these people seem to be forgetting is that, IU at the time of filming all the way to the time they visited each others fanmeet.She was in a public relationship with JKH or at least the public perceived that she belonged to someone else.If we follow the time of these two's respective relationships(JG and IU).IU was the one who started dating earlier so it's a combination of "he already lost his heart when she came along" and "she was already ahead of the dating field, by the time he came along and dating foundation would have been weak."

    Anyway that said, I agree they looked good together and had great chemistry.IU is very beautiful and talented and lovely woman.I know there are many worthy of her who are already lining up and dying to pursue her.I wish her well in everything.I pray that love will find her some day.

    Phew it's been a long week, I hope we can all get along and put this behind us.

    @oyashirazu @missmaudy 

    You two have said all that needs to be said.I am so boiling in anger.For the sake of PR or non fans, since they may not have studied his personality enough, or not really paid attention to his interviews, or the fans of the other parties associated with this so am happy that he has made this move so the dust can settle and that only shows his maturity.But really I am boiling with anger with the fact that he had to do this to make an apology like this to his "FANS"!!!!. I don't even have the words to describe how disappointed I am.Even actors who have committed crimes have a unified fanbase than this! even if it's wrong but you can appreciate their unity unlike what we have seen today.

    They are NOT fans.I repeat they were NEVER fans to begin with.They don't deserve him and they are not needed in his/our fanbase.Like Yoo Ah In said people who thrive on manipulation and living their fantasies on other people are bad news.No one needs people like that regardless of money, popularity or furthering his career.He doesn't need people like that for him to succeed.

    End rant!!! 

    Now I will just wait for his FM so we can see him even though I'm so far away and focus on what criminal minds will bring us.

    Last reflection for today.Overall I am happy.After his birthday FM he can pour his energy into this new drama project and maybe relax and chill with "Future Mrs Lee"after being around Asia with back to back FM tours for the past months..hehehe:D.Also since he is an editorial model, he can continue to take those magazine photoshoots/pictures and videos that we love so much so we can drool as usual:tongue: while we wait for criminal minds.Thats the ultimate fan service with no face to face crowds, while he gets paid at the same time for doing it.

    By the way with criminal minds, my competitive self is wondering who is our drama competition in our time slot on OCN, JtBc, SBS, KBS and MBC? Does anyone know?

    @cedarwood am even more hardcore.I just finished rewatching the show(MEC)that made our oppa go into hibernation:D:D. And I will rewatch again and again till he comes out, since I am on holiday..lol.I still get those warm fuzzy feelings, and smile every now and then from their banter, instead of feeling angry that everything that the show wanted to do plus our oppa's private life was shattered by stupid dispatch.

    I will confess over the last two days, I was worried for him. I was posting on his insta account after every few hours too just trying to pour some positive energy there.But today suddenly, I have a strange peace of mind. Suddenly I feel like he will come out of this marginally hurt image wise and he has the brains and emotional strength to handle this.Also when you think of it, those "fans" who made the loudest noise and spreading hate are a small portion of the huge fandom that JG has.its just that their venom was too poisonous and was upsetting everyone.And everyone was high on emotion.

    Now even the haters are tired:D and the unnecessary buzz is dying down.When I last checked his account, the positive is so overwhelming that you can see maybe one or two hate comments among seas of love messages every few hours.Now even checking the polls for most anticipated 2017 dramas.Criminal minds is coming at number 2. Number one being the Suzy drama which airs in September.So that tells you that this whole hit news was much ado about nothing.

    http://koalasplayground.com/2017/04/07/goblin-and-gong-yoo-lead-the-nominations-for-the-2017-baeksang-arts-awards/#more-80222

    I want to understand why I can't see Lee Joon Gi's name in the top excellence actor nominations.And no "R for ratings" justification doesn't count because one of the nominations for top excellent actress is from a drama with single digit drama rating from KBS(on the way to the airport!).Even if he doesn't win isn't it fair to just give a nod that he deserves an acting award?

    Or is he finally getting his daesang^_^(I can dream right?)or another popularity award because if we are talking about hallyu in this list then it's only Moonlovers and Goblin that fit.Also if this is true, I am super happy about Kang Han Na.She did well.

    @Silvermaine wait Criminal Minds is 7 July not today 7 April or was is just a typo error? and lol I like how the netizen comments are like "great these are the actors we are happy to see and believe:D"That's some major shade and dissing right there.Implying that some actors are unbelievable when they act..But its naver which is mostly positive 99% of the time rather than nate which is mostly negative.I am curious about what they(nate) are going to say.Not that I really give a richard simmons coz I am going to watch the drama anyway.

    But I want to see if they will backpedal and say nonsense like we know you were in a "controversy" but you are a good actor so bring on the drama or act like they weren't bashing him two days ago and write all positive comments.Or I am not going to watch the drama he is such a "fake".Or ignorant comments like I will not believe him if there is a romantic storyline, because they will be no sincerity or chemistry and he is no longer shippable since he has a girlfriend.When the drama as I heard has no romance.( though the stupid girl in me wishes there is:rolleyes:...I mean come on its Moon Chae Won and Joon Gi).

    i may ask, has he ever been in this kind of situation before? not about dating but when he got pushed,judged,critized to the point that he has to apologized?? 

    I don't know of he apologised or not(someone can help me clarifying with this one) but yes he has been in this situation before.Not dating but when he had just shot to fame from the King and the Clown and My Girl so around 2005-2006.Journalists branded him with "celebrity disease" and trust me in Korea that's even worse than dating news.It has led to career suicide for many whether the accusations are true or not.

    He talked about it in Healing camp 2013 if you are interested.search username "LyraYoo" on Facebook.She has the eng sub for his healing camp appearance.It even led him to depression for a while because according to him, he felt like his close friends could not understand the price he had to pay for his fame and many abandoned him.They also teased him about this in golden fisheries in 2009.They said at the time he was branded as "the Number one most hated celebrity among journalists". Check username "Lee Joon Gi Angels" on Facebook for eng subs for golden fisheries.

    My guess is he manage to regain his image with the journalists because I think his talent outweighed the bad tag he was given,Also his pure heart and sincerity, clearly outweighed the negativity that was thrown at him.He was just going through a phase as he was adjusting to his newly found megafame.He acknowledges this and regrets it.But his image was wiped so clean that many people don't even know or bring it up anywhere.We know netizens don't forget negativity.He survived.

    Thats why even this, once the initial shock settles..it will fizzle out with time.its not like others who have committed crimes like rape, murder, violence.Or even moral issue like adultery, or betraying the country by not being patriotic.This is a controversy about morals, it will die down once much more serious news comes up.

    i have a mixed feeling about the script reading tomorrow. I really hope to see some photos of him to assure myself that he is alright, yet I think i won't be able to take it if I sees him looking even thinner or tired than the last time we saw him. 

     

     

    Tell me about it.Its going to break my heart to see him looking haggard and worn out from all the stress.:(People can throw all sorts of daggers at him through their words.He can handle that.But how stressful it must be to see your lady love being subjected to all sorts of insults about her body, her character etc.The type of words even the emotionally strongest woman/ice queen would break from psychologically.She has even got death wishes on her insta account(how extreme) she did not ask for this.This is exactly why he protected her from the public and wanted to shield their relationship.

    I am hoping and praying hard that tomorrow at the script read for criminal minds.He can try even just for the duration of the script reading to put aside the thoughts of this mess and hold his head high and smile like the winner that he is.

    1. He is finally in a modern drama after so long.

    2. He is surrounded by the best cast ever assembled.

    3. He will be acting out one of his favourite genres.crime thriller! one that he executes so excellently as we all know e.g TBDW and Two weeks.

    4. TVN considers him worthy to star in such a big budget and highly esteemed adaptation of one of the most famous American crime series.

    5.Even after all this mess.TVN still released the casting confirmation a day after dating news and after cancelling the candy show and not pull him out and cast another actor instead.They could have easily done it, Namoo only said he was considering the project.No filming yet so no issue of staff being jeopardised.Script hasn't even started yet before "controversy".

    I doubt payments had been made to him except maybe booking fees or some fee that they can claim back.Maybe some investors would have been disappointed because they invested on the belief that JG was gonna be one of the cast and contracts had been signed but still they are other actors who could have been cast and confirmation shifted to another day.But still they chose him because he is the best choice for the drama and said "controversy" is not serious enough to affect their business.

    Dear My ladies and gents(?) I advise and warn you to stay away from instagram until maybe he post something or criminal minds news pops up.You will get a migraine.No amount of reason will be enough to push through these deluded "fans":crazy:. As if attacking his account and his girlfriend is not enough.They are even attacking anyone who is voicing out an encouragement.Its just so heartbreaking.As for the fan tickets:D lol.The more space the better.hahaha(just kidding).

    I said it, this situation is actually a good thing, it will edit and sort out the true fans(who are truly rooting for his well being in all aspects of his life) and people who are entirely interested in his career growth from deluded shippers and haters.True fans and genuine people who love his acting,root for him to grow as an actor, watch his drama for his performance + that of his colleagues, not those who are watching just so they can live their fantasies through him, will help him succeed and maintain longetivity in the industry.

    Deluded fans,shippers and haters will only bring him backwards.Because with deluded shippers, they will keep reminding him of a project he has already completed and he won't be able to focus on the future project since they keep bringing up his previous female co-stars.Also can you imagine his mental health and his partners?Yes he is celeb and yes he is a public figure but he is human being too. The less deluded, obsessive fans we have.The better.It might mean a dip in popularity but that's ok.JG will be just fine.He has exceled in this life because of his hardwork,sincerity and talent anyway not popularity and he will continue to succeed and be respected for the talent that he has.Popularity comes and goes, but legends and legacy will be remembered for ever.

    Having said all of the above,.mark my words, when he stars in a new drama and by chance it becomes trending like Scarlet Heart Ryeo was, or if hopefully this doesn't dent his career and he continues to be more and more successful.They will come crawling back saying oppa oppa with heart eyes as if they never abandoned him at his lowest moment.Fake people everywhere.I really feel for him.Cant trust friends coz some are opportunists and money hungry.can't rely on fans to trust his career choices and respect his decisions about his personal life.Cant date the woman he loves in peace.No wonder he feels lonely. My poor oppa stay strong!!

    I never believed a private guy like LJG would show his feelings about a woman so freely in front of the cameras except as a show.

    I know right.As @Silvermaine said earlier some people truly skipped their communication and comprehension classes.

    In his SHR Japan DVD interview:

    Q:He was asked, "would the real JG go all out with the woman he loves like Wang So?"

    Now y'all know how Wang So was like."This is my person".She is mine.He would say these kinds of things without batting an eye in front of his family and rivals and grab and kiss her whenever.What was JG's answer?

    A:"I wish I could learn that from Wang So(the Boldness). He also said but I also agree with his attitude(Wang So's)of looking at, longing for and loving one woman."

    So is this the kind of thing a player or someone who is inconsiderate of women's feelings would say?

    Ok enough of this.Its time for CRIMINAL MINDS!!!!come forth and make my summer the hottest ones.

    I take back my words.I think TVN and Namoo guys are actually very smart.Cancel 8 th candy episode after controversy.Announce casting news.This will make all the true JG fans want to view the drama and support him and gain more male audience and fans.TVN is more subscription based and international or so I heard so this can only mean more money for them..Well played!!lAlso my wish that JG remains buzzworthy until the beginning of filming has been fulfilled even though not in the way I envisioned it.:D
