Maybe just give them both time to develop whatever friendship or relationship they have for each other. We love them together, that’s just because of what we see onscreen.... life partners are real and for life... they need time and they need caution too in deciding whether to pursue such a relationship with each other or
not. Of course I’m shaken whenever I see such suspiciously negative clues that may point to a sinking ship. But once again, seriously, only time will tell whether they even fell in love with each other. I’ve decided to place my expectations of them as a real life couple really low. And just enjoy reading and reminiscing once in awhile the great chemistry between AJ and NG that caught all of us and got us onto this lovely thread. And as I said before, they are great people to follow on their own. And I have moved on from the initial unhealthy addiction I had, so that I can now say that, I’ll be sincerely happy to see them settle down with the one they truly love. ( of course I’ll be on Cloud 9 if they chose each other!)
but seriously, my heart goes out to poor AJ who seems to be bearing the brunt of this disappointment. She may really be shy as @siena mentioned. And she might not want to be placed in a vulnerable position where she has to comment on her kiss scenes and etc. And that alone could be a positive clue too! Haha! She probably doesn’t want to be caught in a embarrassing moment where her honest facial expression would have given her away and she can’t hide it no matter how well she speaks. Just a thought.
anyways, just wish I could go to DC Gal and tell the unkind netizens that artistes really do NOT owe us any explanations for their choices in accepting or rejecting a project. And if they ever dreamed of seeing Gum couple be a reality, their negative comments are doing more harm than good to both AJ and NG. Even if they ever had a tiny inkling of a feeling for each other, now they have to feel pressured about that. Sighs... just give them time...

Or maybe it’s because they ARE together that’s why they’re trying hard not to be seen together. Reverse psychology u know? Haha.
Alright. Am I sounding too optimistic for my own good?? Haha. Oh well. Am disappointed with KAJ not doing commentary. But what can we do? Maybe we’ll be able to spot some clues from KNG when he does it?

I’m still around!
Haha. Am still reading all your comments. Just came back from a short holiday. So catching up with all the news and updates! Little flame burning is still a little bit of fire. We shall keep that going until we hear more news to confirm whether they are or not together. -

Thanks @siena for your contribution. I was just thinking whether there would be any new post on this thread today and saw yours! Hehe.
just want to add on to the list of things that actually made us shippers a bit more excited in the earlier pages. Remember the number of coincidences we were counting on AJ’s IG and NG’s manager’s IG or his gilstory IG? Hehe. It came to a point that we were quite certain they weren’t mere coincidences. But of course, after that the postings died down. Haha. I have a feeling they really left a deep impression on each other. Am really hoping they will pursue and develop that friendship and it will go somewhere. Of course am afraid of disappointment. How? Haha. Oh well. Just hope they can still do DCut commentary together. Or just work on another project together then.

“You never know...”
hehe. That’s what I’m going to say for us who sometimes feel disheartened by the lack of development from our OTP. You never know... They might not be together now. But they might get together in the future. We never know.
But it IS indeed tiring and trying to stay positive in a thread that is getting cold. For me, I just keep my expectations really low. I’m thankful that real life has really caught up with me beginning this year. Quite busy. So I just pop in whenever I feel like, just to see if I find new surprises from OTP. And in any case, it’s great to see you all, fellow Gummers once in awhile, and fun to see new fan arts even while everyone’s morale is low. Thanks to the fan artists!
In any case, I feel KNG and KAJ are worth following or “stalking” even as individuals. Because not only were their couple scenes great, their individual scenes were top-notch too! So I will usually hop over to their individual threads to read updates on them as well. So EVEN if they’re not together NOW, (a little sad) but I still find satisfaction reading about them as great individuals and just want to wish them all the best in their lives.

And each time they decided to “just go with the flow” and be natural?
that explains why we enjoyed the kiss so much! Haha. -

Something random just popped into my head just as I was checking in this thread today. Haha. Maybe both agencies will feel bad about the blunder and mismanagement of information to KNG and KAJ such that they couldn’t do commentary, AND they will agree on another project for them to work together on!! Haha! So that they can please us persistent and “angry” fans.
wouldn’t that be great? I wouldn’t mind watching them in another piece of work, even if it means replacing couple commentary of LUTYN.
in the meantime, let’s Just keep hoping, though we really need to protect our hearts in the process.
have a good day everyone!

The hopeful in me will want to agree with @ashia16 that AJ doesn’t contact her ex-co-stars while they are working on their own projects. And not forgetting, NG really went into filming Strange Family almost immediately (like 2 weeks’ break?). Even if they had something for each other, I don’t think he had time to let it develop too, and he had to faster move on from being Heo Im to be second son of the new family. So I guess that explains why a lack of contact. I guess so long as they do not dislike each other, it’s already hopeful enough for us. Haha. We can’t expect much due to such circumstances.
Thanks @siena for sharing with us updates that the problem lies with the agencies’ mismanagement and not with our dear OTP. For a moment I had a negative feeling towards NG...(haha) thought he was the one who didn’t want to do the commentary. Now that it’s clarified that our OTP has nothing to do with the blunder, I think i’m Feeling a bit more hopeful. Really hope they can meet again. Am very sure going through their project together again would make them rekindle some (if not all) of the feelings that had for each other. Haha. Am I sounding too hopeful?

^ but I thought he enjoyed filming LUTYN and took some time to get over it?
i’m sad too though I didn’t order the dvd.
my realistic heart tells me they just didn’t see the need to do couple commentary that’s why. Probably, because they have moved on from the work already.

Thank you all for the pics and videos and updates to rekindle sparks! Haha. I haven’t left the thread! I still come every night to check for updates. New school year means busy days for over-worried moms!
but I guess I’ll settle into a breathable routine soon! And I’ll be refreshing this page ever so often again, especially when they start their commentary! I think their kiss was really the best and most true and sincere kiss. KNG’s face while leaning his head onto AJ’s is such a giveaway that he was really feeling every moment of it. I was thinking about what they said decided - to go “natural” with the kiss scene and therefore that beautiful effect. As actors and actresses, would you want to “go natural” and “go with the flow” or “be led” if you didn’t have good vibes and trust working with each other? I think they knew they were clicking well and the chemistry between them was just right, that’s why they could confidently say they would just go naturally for that scene.
ok, in short, they really loved each other, while filming. Haha.
Thanks for all the individual updates about NG and AJ. Many of you AJ fans have made me a new AJ fan too! I’ve become a silent lurker at their individual threads as well! Haha. Really hope they will rekindle their love for each other soon and reward our patient hearts!
Haha. Good day to all of u! -

^^ My share of wishes is exactly yours, @iamemilykay! Since it’s a wish list, I shan’t be modest or noble and say things like “I’m happy enough that they settle down with whoever they like” and etc.... No! Since it’s a wish, I really really wish the two will end up together and they will have a wedding announcement soon! That’s why I’m still hanging on in this thread! Haha! One more day to wishing u all happy new year!

Just a quick check in.... Thank you everyone for keeping the flame going! Shipper heart sometimes weak and shaky but it’s nice to know that our thread has quickly moved on 4 pages after we got to know the rumor! Hehe. Thanks everyone for being there for everyone else! I still think there were true feelings between them while filming. Of course whether these feelings had any chance to blossom, only time will tell. I also have a feeling that NG was single while filming. And until they announce anything definite, our ship still has hope to sail. But for the sakes of our poor hearts, let’s just keep our expectations low and enjoy the fun of digging for news! Haha.
And AJ is winning my heart more and more. Am reading her thread too. Haha.

Thank you @iamemilykay for always being so cheery in your posts! And I think even though our thread has gone quieter due to nothing much to spazz about, but we’re all still very optimistic shippers. All our posts are usually happy and positive. Yups. We’re all shipping them healthily. I guess we’ll be happy enough to know they have a place in each other’s hearts, whether it be good friends, close friends or significant others. But whatever happens, I know we’ll be there for one another. Hwaiting Gummers!
Thanks too, @imkyeong 128! I just watched the hugs compilation you shared with us! Just when I thought I’ve gotten rid of that addiction, that unhealthy addiction... haha. After watching the hugs, I could feel the addiction coming back! Help! Haha. But it’s good to be reminded occasionally of their powerful chemistry! Thanks for making me somewhat delusional again! It was great!

^^ I would be furious too if I were the so-called rumored non-celeb girlfriend! To think my boyfriend who doesn’t even spend enough time with me, is allowing another woman (so what if it’s co-star) sit on his lap?!! I think I would have broken off with such a man long ago! Haha. I dun think any woman can stand for such things. So in conclusion, my verdict is, No, KNG doesn’t look like he has a non-celeb girlfriend. Maybe he had (as some of us theorized during Pirates) and ended some time before his interview for One Day. That’s why he’s been going on project after project these couple of years. (I would go mad if I had such a busy boyfriend!) So, I don’t think he was attached when he acted LUTYN. And I believe all his feelings as HI for YK were reflective of his feelings as KNG. And it speaks volumes when this busy and rare Pokémon says he wants to treat himself better next year. Because he really hasn’t been kind to his body and emotional well being. So I’m still hopeful for him and KAJ!

Hello everyone! Don’t feel down! The thread has gone quiet not because we have given up
hoping and shipping. For me, personally, it’s school holidays now! So a lot of me is taken up by family time! In a way I’m glad about it too because it really has cured my unhealthy addiction to the couple or the drama. I remember refreshing this page every few minutes for new info every day and I was always thinking about them and can’t focus well on real life. And that’s bad. But glad now that that’s curing. And I can ship the couple in a healthy way. Checking on the thread when I can and not letting it disrupt what real life is all about. Hehe.
Thanks chingus for keeping the thread going with whatever news from either side or even with cute fan arts and fanfics!
I do feel a bit down too whenever I read that NG might be dating a non-celeb. But as @scarleyerza says, it was a few years ago when such hints were suspected. And who knows, they might have broken up. Haha. Oops( that sounds too happy). But anyways, considering the way KNG jam packs his life with projects back to back, with little time for himself, his supposed “girlfriend” must be really super big hearted and tolerant to be able to date such a boyfriend who is largely non-existent in her life!! What’s more? She has to bear with his explosive chemistry onscreen with KAJ!! If he really has such a non-celeb girlfriend, I will really applaud her for her courage to love such a passionate actor who loves his craft so much (maybe even more than her). And of course I would hope he would reward such a great girl with marriage cos she definitely deserves it.
But if this rumored girlfriend of his is fictitious, then we can safely say that our detective findings are quite reliable. Because LUTYN is such an impactful drama for both of them that it resulted in one saying she wants to date and fall in love, and the other saying he wants to treat himself better next year and look after his health more. Such big changes made to their lives because of the drama. So I believe even if Love sparks haven’t developed fully, we can be quite certain that they are both treasured friends to each other. Maybe when they reunite to work on DCut, love sparks may blossom finally? The earth is round. Everything is possible. Let’s just keep calm and carry on shipping.

Hello everyone! Am back from my short trip where I had problems connecting to the WiFi in the hotel throughout my stay. Thanks @iamemilykay for your shoutout! So happy to be back and seeing all of you!! Managed to cut out the unhealthy “drug” addiction to Gum Couple. But never forgotten my keen interest in following and shipping them still.
While speed reading the posts I have missed, I read about the wedding rumor. Can’t deny that my heart dropped too. But am hopeful again because of all of your hopeful messages! I guess one can never be sure about the credibility of a rumor. And I also think all of us will be happy for both NG and AJ if they settle down soon (even if it’s not with each other). Of course I will feel mighty jealous for AJ if the girl mentioned in the rumor is NG’s Pirates co-star! Hahaha. But then again, what can we say if that’s his happiness? Anyways, shan’t dwell on the “what ifs”. Will just wait with all of u for concrete stuff as to whether they are together or not, and hoping they are while we wait for the news!

Slr! Thanks for our chingus who clarified about the korean updates poll. I actually know about it too. Hehe... LUTYN deserves more and I'm going to keep on voting between 2pm and 5pm KST. ㅋㅋㅋ I want to give justice (something tvn failed to provide) to our couple's talent and hardwork. I'm hoping for them to win and be recognized. I'd like to comment about PP shippers but I won't waste my time and i'm mad about that 'stupid comment'.
I do hope to see KNG and KAJ at the baeksang awards too. ㅋㅋㅋ it's like Oscars, right?
@delusionalsquid I like the pic you shared earlier. ㅋㅋㅋ I actually own the queenmajongie ig page and I'll post a side by side pic with your idea. I like the fanfic too. ㅋㅋ
I seriously think the PP camp used votebots too! It’s unimaginable to think no matter how hard we vote, we can never keep up their pace. I just started voting for fun today. And as soon as I increased by 0.01%, it seems like PP camp was alerted and it started to increase while our camp decreased again!
SpoilerIt’s scary! But come to think of it, it is underhanded. No wonder they called us “stupid”. But then, how honourable is such a win I wonder. And don’t they feel a bit thick-skinned to “make” their idol win Best Actor, when he isn’t yet of that level? I mean I’m just stating my honest view. Not starting any fan war. If it’s a competition about popularity, I will give it to them freely cos I know KNG’s fan base might be smaller. But if it says Best Actor, I take it as a competition of both skills (mainly) and (some) popularity. And not mainly about popularity.
Anyway, given that it’s not a real real award, so it’s no more stress voting. Really just for fun. But that’s just my observations of what has been taking place so far.
And thanks @prenchpries and @3z3zm3lp for the updates and pictures! Our OTP is so sweet! I can imagine many similarities between High Cut and Marie Claire poses too!!

Thanks @busy_listening and @starrymaze and @sukbin! Forgot to check on the About us. Haha.
Ok! Will continue voting for the fun of it, minus the stress level....
well, it seems like there are many awards out there that are based on just popularity vote and not real substance of skill.... this was one lesson I learnt in the whole process. We know deep down in our hearts KNG and KAJ are great actors and they have the best chemistry to date! That’s all that matters!

Calling out to all gummers. It’s real emergency now! 48.88%!!!

Looks like the other camp is determined to overtake us....
i think we need to keep vigil every 1 to 2 hours.
Maybe we try to visit the website every 2 hours? Best every hour.... and we vote furiously for 10-15 min?
It seems like when there are about 3 or more of us at it (plus other silent voters) the percentage increases more and faster.
It’s gone down again.... looks like we really need a plan to keep our votes there! Any ideas, Gummers, on how we can deploy ourselves effectively? If not, we’ll always be fighting fire only. In the meantime, we need people who are available at this moment to fight the new fire....

Oops! Were you referring to my post? I was away and only just checked on the forum today. Didn’t know what I wrote caused some unhappiness.
I’m sorry if it was a careless remark. What I referred to was more of those who went overboard with their negative comments. It’s totally fine to ask her for a reason for what she was doing. And yes, it was irresponsible for her to change her mind about doing the commentary, after getting everyone excited and making orders to buy the DVD. I’m just coming from the perspective of not agreeing with those who went a bit overboard in their quest to get an explanation from her. I don’t think any of us in this forum did that rite?
Once again, apologies if my comment offended you, @Melon_bread. Maybe it was too generalized a remark. Never intended to be offensive to Gum couple fans on this thread.
