  2. Be on the alert Stargazers, JoonU are throwing 1,2,3 punches. Fan Meet Ticket sales(3/23), then IU's release(3/24) and tomorrow MEC ep. 6 (3/25). After seeing the crumbs on IU's MV let us see what will be hinted at next. These two are good at keeping us alert and our thoughts on them. Yes, JoonU, we are all here chanting. Hope you are lurking here JG/JE and enjoying how well your shippers are discovering each of your clever lil' clues. kekeke. Could it be that all this is a prelude to something telling at your fm kekeke...my wishful thinking.

  4. I'm late...THANK YOU everyone for all the wonderful crumb reveals!!! IU's Through the Night...Wow, Wow and WOW!!!! It is nothing short of mesmerizing. From her beautiful vocals, to romantic lyrics (revealing message to someone kkkk) to the nostalgically filmed MV. Talk about a "HOME RUN". No surprise that it hit #1! When I sign on I like to begin where I signed off, the pages jumped so I read from one post to another (killed my like button)...sorry, too many of you to mention but you all know who you are and everyone had exciting insightful reveals.  It was like opening one gift after another as I was back reading through all of your discoveries. The moment the MV played and I saw the star mobile as her opening, I knew it was going to lead to some crumbs for our OTP. All you shippers found crumbs that gave me the chills. The Clock...anyone have insights on the time? The time doesn't change??? Maybe that could be a special moment for JoonU that only they know about kkkkk my delulu :rolleyes: Thank you everyone it was exciting to experience this moment with all of you.

    @uttarichen, Whoooa!  I'm so embarrassed I deleted my post cause I thought I was asking a question that you had already gone over. When I did the back read to find you had originally posted the dates(numbers) and calculations, I didn't want to bother you or other shippers with anything repetitive.  You are fast!!! Not only did you see my original post but you already calculated this.  Are you a mathematician? You are excellent with numbers and after seeing what you calculated I can't help but think JoonU are being given guidance on their dates (a numerologist?)...my delulu mind going again kekekeke.  Thank you so much for giving me a "Whew" to my worry of the posts I deleted and about their upcoming dates and any correlation relating them.  I thought I was waaaaay out there in thinking about the numbers.  I'm so happy to see your reply. 

    ahahaha I'm inspired by uri FBI shippers who have very high level investigating skills :D and great memory related to uri JoonU~~

    I do believe in fate and destiny and this ship really guide me to more believe that  nothing is a coincidence hahaha.  And i'm not a mathematician (math is one of subject i dislike lol) just feel curious about numbers and those correlation relating to them because i used to play and addicted with numbers too with my ex bf in 2009 (like converted anything about us to numbers then we got all the result was number 8. at that time we believed number 8 was symbol of infinity haha)

    and btw when i saw uri captain @akinahana89's post about the stargazer lilies, i remembered that it was one of flower i got on my graduation day last december (many good things happened in december aaaww XD) the one that was biggest and have nice smell among other flowers. dunno what it was called and didn't search it also. Thankyou you shared it with us~ :wub:

    @uttarichen you definitely belong in the upper ranks of the FBI branch. :D It is a true talent to maneuver through numbers so patiently and creatively or should I say accurately, cause you hit the nail on the head with these two cuties.  Yes, destiny is believable with this couple. It works because LJG believes in it too. The song lyrics are so them.  Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

    saw @sscllccrazy 's post about dates and numbers and idk what i did XD (just in delulu mode, everything looks possible then XD)

    let's play with numbers (again lol) JG ticket sale 3 - 23 - 17, iu's single "night letter" release 3 - 24 -17 (both about releasing something) => 24 - 23 = 1, then jg encore "thank you again" 4 - 15 - 17, iu full album comeback 4 - 21 - 17 (it's about a good bye and a hello) => 21 - 15 = 6, if we combine both numbers = 16, but wait, 6-1 = 5. we got 16 & 5 it's someone's birthday right~~?? XD

      Hide contents

    just a delulu game few days ago:  playing with numbers  if 24 - 7 = 17, then 17 - 21 (her full comeback) or 21-17 = 4 XD she knows what is the meaning of number 17 & 4, right?

    Omo, I think we made it!!! Here's the hopefully final version of our list :D:D:D But if you detect a mistake or something else in need of modification, please let me know! (48. is not proof-read yet so perhaps there's something off here?) Today's the last chance!

     

    100 Things We Love About

    Our No. 1 Actor Lee Joon Gi 이준기 李準基

     

    Acting Genius

    1. His incredible acting skills: His acting started off great but became even greater and refined over time. Great acting as in, he always makes us believe he is actually going through whatever his character is experiencing. His characters never seem fake or inauthentic.

    2. His versatile acting. He would never allow us to grow bored of him or his roles. He always chooses different kinds of roles that are challenging and deep. He can pull off roles with dual personalities easily. He is not afraid to act challenging roles and always sells the character convincingly. He also adapts his acting style and interpretation to suit the character.

    3. His acting always is a joy to watch without fail because he knows how to surprise us viewers. His acting doesn't only seem real and convincing, but he goes beyond that and creates something new and unpredictable within his roles personality range. Everyone can interpret a character, but many do it in the most obvious and dull way (even if it seems natural and realistic), but Joon Gi's interpretations are never boring or predictable.

    4. His micro-acting: His subtle facial muscles and how they react while in character.

    5. His voice acting: His voice alone can pull you in. If he stopped work as an actor someday (please, no!) he could dub movies.

    6. His awesome onscreen presence and charisma: the way he can pull you in and make you feel for his character.

    7. He is one of the first definitions of "second-lead syndrome" in Korean drama. Anyone who watched My Girl (마이 ) in 2005-2006 experienced it. No wonder it did not take even a year before he was promoted to first lead status to lead Time Between Dog and Wolf (개와 늑대의 시간) in 2007.

    8. Perfect first-lead actor: No sane person gets second-lead syndrome in a drama or movie in which Joon Gi is first lead. In his dramas, everyone in the screen but Joon Gi fades into the background. We call it the Lee Joon Gi syndrome or Lee Joon Gi effect.

    9. His body control and the way he uses his body as part of his acting: He knows how to walk and move around to make his role look convincing. His posture and movement is always harmonic, looks aesthetically pleasing and fits his characters. His body movement is never stiff or awkward (well, apart from when he wants to make his role look like that). For all we know, Joon Gi and stiffness are antonyms!

    10. Like Director Kim Kyu Tae 김규태 once said, he is like a volcano' His acting is not restricted, but he goes all out. He completely pours himself into his role and does not feel the need to hold himself back or feel embarrassed. He shows his vulnerable side through his acting and does not try to look "cool" or guarded.

    11. King of sageuk: He's a joy to everyone who loves historical movies and dramas. No one can pull off a hanbok as naturally as him. His sageuk speech is on point. He always makes it look as if he belongs in that time of history.

    12. He is excellent at showcasing romance in his dramas. His kiss scenes in virtually all his dramas but especially his post-military ones have a certain authenticity or realness. They are usually not too aggressive or intense. Instead, they are gentle and filled with so much emotion they can burn your screen. There is just that special feeling to them that is hard to put into words. When he is making love confessions instead of them sounding cheesy or just like an actor reciting a script or trying to look cool, his confessions sound so passionate, so full of longing, so meaningful, so loving. Or the way he shows love towards his leading ladies by taking care of them.

    13. He can even act with his neck veins! Who was not blown away by his acting when they watched the poison scene in his drama Scarlet Heart: Ryeo (달의 연인-보보경심 )? Please tell us how you can do stuff like that, Joon Gi oppa!

    14. His commitment and passion for his primary profession as an actor: Despite his many side endeavors (fan meetings, photo shoots, variety shows) he gives us at least one new drama to watch every single year without fail - sometimes we get to see even more than one acting project a year.

    15. He is an inspiration. He has shown the value of consistency and patience as essential elements to success through his journey as an artist. We admire him because he continued to evolve and he keeps re-inventing himself as an artist. That is why we find it refreshing every time we see him.

    16. He is an "Actor's Actor." Many senior actors repeat performing with him in movies or dramas. He said he was once told off by a senior when early in his career he would play and dance around between scenes. But after the actor saw him get down to business, he told Joon Gi he would go far. An "Actor's Actor" is acknowledged by his peers and more veteran actors.

    17. It is always Joon Gi. No matter how many dramas you want to watch you always choose the one with Joon Gi as your first choice. You will find extra time just to see another episode as soon as it is available. There are so many actors, yet it is always HIM you chose because he has that something that makes him so addictive.

     

    Full of Charm and Personality

    18. His humor and ability to be goofy.

    19. His ability to connect with the masses and make it genuine.

    20. His expressive eyes! -that glance, cry, smile, smolder, showing vulnerability, etc.

    21. He is incredibly humble and genuine. He sees himself as an artist working towards improving his craft. In his interviews when he says this, you would think that maybe he is just being humble and does not want to boast when they compliment him, but somehow - maybe we are biased - when he says this it feels genuine.

    22. He has good manners. We saw this once again at the SBS Drama Awards 2016. He bows, greets and compliments his seniors (Kim Sung Ryeung 김성령). And he bows and greets his juniors (Lee Min Ho 김성령).

    23. His ability to go from serious to goofy to sexy in less than 3 seconds.

    24. He is incredibly caring to his hoobae/juniors, and his leadership skills are on point on the film set.

    25. He is a gentleman. He sure knows how to interact with women. See the way he took care and led Nang Sang Mi 남상미 and Lee Ji Eun 이지은 at the award ceremonies and also the way he interacts with Shin Min Ah 신민아 during interviews. Such a classy man.

    26. His contagious and funny way of laughing and giggling.

    27. He is very wise and intelligent behind all of his goofiness. Every interview with him shows how deep his thinking process is and how perceptive he is. When he is answering questions, he takes the time to give genuine, original and well-thought answers. Not just one word or phrase answers and not those well-rehearsed bull crap generic answers celebs give in interviews.

    28. He learns from his mistakes and now does not let fame get to his head even though he is a very successful person.

    29. He is not afraid to tell the truth about himself, even when he is telling something that might make him look bad.

    30. The way he is always willing to take responsibility for his decisions and try to make the best of them even in adverse situations. Even when he is not at fault, he ultimately takes the responsibility. He does not want to place blame on anyone.

    31. The way he looks divinely shy when someone praises his work or his looks.

    32. We adore the happiness he shows when he sits at a table full of food. He loves and enjoys food very much and eats his food with relish and delight.

    33. His ability to cry and still look amazing.

    34. He is superb with people and always tries to make them feel comfortable.

    35. He loves kids. A man like that will instantly gain bonus points with women. We always ship Lee Joon Gi with babies and children.

    36. He is 34 years old, but sometimes he is still like an adorable young boy. He simply is a cute cinnamon roll!

    37. He loves animals, especially dogs. Any person, more so a guy and a huge celebrity at that who loves animals that much makes us feel they have a compassionate heart and that character trait in any person to us is so attractive. He even has a sizzling chemistry with horses!

    38. His personality as a whole. If he stops making dramas or movies (Hell no!!!), he would totally excel as a variety star. See his guest appearances in Running Man 런닝맨, Healing Camp 힐링캠프, Family Outing 패밀리가 떴다 and Golden Fishery 황금어장.

    39. His pouting face. No man should be this cute when pouting, but his pouting face is just plain adorable.

    40. He has many interests aside from acting like dancing, singing, cooking, martial arts, golf, soccer, drinking, and so on.

    41. He has got a romantic side to him, and we love when he shows it! (E.g. My Ear's Candy 귀에 캔디)

    42. He is neat and tidy. From the way his trophies are arranged in his cabinet, to the way the floor in his house is clean and shiny, to the way he packs his luggage. Even his dogs look well taken care of. This clearly shows he is husband material. Should he decide to get married, he can be trusted to take care of the home efficiently and effectively if wifey is away.

    43. He is a man of confidence. However, his reaction when he breaks down because of accidents or mistakes is adorable if not priceless. For example, when he is crying out 'eomeoni' while he is cooking dinner in My Ear's Candy, when he is panicking at his fan meeting because of his May Day's out of tune, or when he is pouting and laughing hopelessly because the fans kept repeating his 'Ja.'

    44. We are amazed at how he has managed to maintain a healthy balance between having a positive public image and keeping an air of mystery around his private life for such a long time. He is human and allowed to make mistakes, and what he does in private is none of our business. But it is like everywhere he goes, both in Korea and internationally, he commands respect not only as an actor but as a person. It is very rare to find people talking negative things about Lee Joon Gi (netizens, staff, co-workers, journalists).

    45. His sincerity in everything.

    46. His boundless energy. He is always the mood maker by jumping around and cheerfully sharing his energy even when he is exhausted himself.

    47. Artist who is sweet, warm and kindhearted: He has had the same crew around him for many years, his manager Lee Sang Hyun, his stylists, his staff, his dance crew Vlack Squad, his band, his interpreter. They have stuck beside him through it all. If they were having difficulties with him, they would just leave. We do not think this is just a public persona he presents for his fans. This is Lee Joon Gi - kind, caring, warm, considerate. This is the Joon Gi we all know and love.

    48. His warm heart doesn’t only go out to those close to him and his fans but also reveals itself through his social and charitable work for those in need: He has donated much of his time, money and private possessions throughout his career till now to socially disadvantaged people and through this, has shown us his beautiful heart. He is an actor who gives back.

    49. His star quality/aura. In a room full of hundreds of stars and other regular people you cannot help but notice him. He has that shine to him.

    50. He is zutter!

     

    Physical Appearance

    51. His unique, intriguing and almost other-worldly looks are one of the reasons he got noticed by directors, fans, and so on when he was a young actor.

    52. Phoenix eyes: his eyes and their shape are distinctive and beautiful.

    53. Straight nose.

    54. Killer jawline.

    55. Heart-shaped lips.

    56. Clear skin and beautiful complexion.

    57. His cute ears: We can totally imagine his Mum pulling them when he is acting naughty or doing aegyo when he was a baby. But their shape is charming, too, like elf ears.

    58. His strong hands, long fingers, and well-groomed fingernails. And those arm veins...

    59. His broad shoulders.

    60. His legs are strong, athletic and beautiful.

    61. His Adam's apple: you cannot unsee it, and when he exposes his neck it just enhances his sexy manly appeal.

    62. His profile is perfection. Perfect forehead, thin nose, beautiful lips and that ideal jaw shape.

    63. Not only his acting is versatile but his looks, too. He can go from ethereal beauty outdoing even women to boyish and cute, manly heartachingly sexy like a rock star to gentleman-like handsome to the Kpop idol look. When he wears hanbok, he can alternate between handsome, cute, sexy, and beautiful within seconds. He is a man with thousands of faces. He can portray thousands of characters with his unique look effortlessly.

    64. He can pull off any look and is a fashionista through and through. How can a man look so good in jewelry? From airport fashion to his fan meetings to simple casual wear when he is guesting at movie premieres of his co-stars. Not forgetting how he can vary his hair color from red to white to blonde to black to auburn and plus long hair, short hair, up do, porcupine hairstyle, etc. and look damn good most of the time.

    65. He ages like wine: He will be 35 soon but no sign of real aging - or only in a reeeally good way.

    66. His sexiness shines through without him taking off his shirt and showing us his abs - his swagger and confidence do that for him. He can be super sexy without having to do scenes that eliminate the imagination of lovemaking. What a man! We admire an actor who can give you all those feels without having to exploit himself.

    67. He does not need to show us abs to prove his sexiness, but we are still delighted that the Singapore FM has shown us uri oppa has a toned body, especially his belly. He really has his "sexy on." Oppa, if you have the urge to flaunt your body or a drama/movie requires you to do a shower scene or brooding half naked or treat a wound like with your shirt off, don't be shy and be more body confident. Your abs are not "fabric conditioner abs" like you said in your interview.

    68. He looks stunning in a suit.

    69. He could work as a full-time model with his looks. If we were casting agents for a model agency or clients looking for an original model we would pick him. If you put his headshots along hundreds of headshots of other beautiful and talented actors and models, his look alone stands out. It's unique. No wonder he is the original flower boy.

    70. How is it even bed head looks good on him? He looks naturally stunning even right after waking up.

    71. Big bonus points for no plastic surgery or botox.

     

    Man of Talents and Hard Work

    72. He is a man of courage: He went all the way to Seoul with almost no money on him to fulfill his dream to become an actor.

    73. He also is a man of survival. He has worked hard to get where he is now (e.g. enduring life in a small room full of cockroaches).

    74. Even though he has made it this far, we admire that he has not thrown his hardworking personality away to this day and always tries to surpass himself with his next role. The way he always strives for more is how we believe he got better and better over the years in everything he does, not stagnating but giving his natural talent a chance to improve through his determination and will power.

    75. His martial art and action skills as well as his astonishing flexibility. He is amazing! Things he can do with his legs - incredible. And he mastered several martial arts at that: Tae Kwon Do 3rd degree, Hapkido 1st degree, and Taekkyeon 1st degree.

    76. His cooking skills. We would love to taste his food some day.

    77. He can wait tables and serve with charisma. He was a waiter before he made his breakthrough.

    78. His language usage! International fans appreciate the fact he is learning and utilizing other languages to communicate with us all in spoken word and his SNS usage. English, Mandarin, Japanese, and so on. Plus, we love that he's so confident in speaking them and that he has a clear articulation.

    79. His diction - he speaks so clearly. He had to work hard on his pronunciation and dialect for his acting career because he came from Busan and he did better than great! Korean in his mouth sounds like the most beautiful music.

    80. His English. We fall head over heels when he is speaking English. He sounds sexy/cool but cute at the same time with his accent. It is most attractive.

    81. His pleasant singing voice and versatile music. He can sing ballads, electro-pop, hip hop, not limited to the genres he samples. And he can sing in Japanese, English, Korean, Chinese.

    82. His incredible dancing skills.

    83. His songwriting ability.

    84. He is such a fantastic model not only because of his looks but because he has experience with the camera and knows exactly how to please the photographer. He changes his postures quickly and efficiently. We would not be surprised if most of the times all shots could be used. His photo shoots are always interesting to watch if filmed and his pictorials are so fabulous to fangirl over and find new sides of him.

    85. His horse riding skills. We admire his concern for the horse's well-being when riding, his soft hands on the reins, his posture and balance. We are impressed by his ability to gallop while holding the reins in one hand and a sword in the other. He can hold the reins up while shooting with a rifle at a canter and canter with another person in the saddle in front of him. He had the rare ability to make his horse rear up while maintaining his balance and seat.

    86. King of Hearts. Perfect shaped hand hearts... ♡ and a great variety of them. <3 He always amazes us with his fingers/hands abilities.

    87. His work ethic.

     

    Fanservice

    88. We love his appreciation and connection to us - his fans. He is always lovely to us.

    89. We love him for organizing so many fan meetings inside and outside of Korea to please all of his fans.

    90. We love him for always making time to spend with his fans. He does not worry about where he is or how he should behave if it can convey his appreciation whether at an airport tired from a flight or coming out of a restaurant or even a car (coming or going) or before/after press conferences. He often is the only actor who stops to meet the fans when others just keep walking and look away from the fans.

    91. He will act a part with enthusiasm in reality shows and give the audience a fun side of himself even if it makes the other participants blush.

    92. We appreciate that he always also thinks of his fans and their wishes when he is contemplating a new project.

    93. We love that he is very active in various forms of social media like Instagram, Twitter, Weibo, vlive app, etc. And he does not only communicate in Korean/Hangul but uses many different languages. He even mastered the universal language: emoji. So we can understand what he is saying despite remaining language barriers.

    94. His pictures and videos on social media are always creative and fun.

    95. Wherever he performs at his fan meets, he incorporates local songs into his performance.

    96. He knows how to be a fan himself. He is a big fan of Big Bang.

    97. His albums and songs that he shares with the masses.

    98. The ultimate fanservice 1: His ability to make pouring water something of an event (and R18).

    99. The ultimate fanservice 2: Humbly washing the feet of his fans. It showed all of us his sincerity towards his fans.

    100. The Power of Lee Joon Gi: A real Korean Ambassador of Culture. Why would people from Singapore, Philippines, Korea, USA, Canada, Poland, Bermuda, Malaysia, New Zealand, Australia, Venezuela, Germany, Italy, Serbia, Great Britain and many more countries connect online (Soompi) and in person (at fan meets)? Why, it is the irresistible draw of a fantastic Korean Actor, our real actor Lee Joon Gi. We connect to discuss, share, research, analyze, create, revel and fangirl/guy over him and in the process, connect with other fans, cultures, and opinions along the way. We attempt to learn Hangul and understand the cultural norms of Korea. We visit non-English websites to discover what content we can because obtaining valid Lee Joon Gi information is not that easy for an international fan. We support each other at fan meets and beyond. The common denominator is Lee Joon Gi.

     

    This is our birthday gift to you

    by your loyal international fans from Soompi.

    Happy Birthday! We love you!

    By the way, my word document is 10 pages in total - will be a looong read for Joon Gi if he ever gets to it :lol: I'll try to find a very noticable envelope so Joon Gi somehow finds this one among all his fan letters.

    Just my pov (see yellow highlight for your question @Oyashirazu ) LJG's charity may suit under "Charm and Personality" with the subtitle of an 'Artist who is caring with a warm heart'.  What do you think?

    (sorry to cut your post!) Great, thanks! Was about to write it the way you suggested when I saw 47 which was similarly formulated. It's the point about Joon Gi being warm and caring to the people he works with. So I added his charity work right after this as 48 and made use of your nice subtitle in 47. Is it alright this way? Thanks again for pointing out this very important and admirable side of Joon Gi ^_^

    @LyraYoo Thanks for posting the translation of the article on tvN and Criminal Minds! Since it's the same one I digged up earlier and google translated (see page 1716) I was happy to see a professional and more accurate translation by someone who knows Korean well that could give us more insight on CM but I think the translation actually misses the most relevant info on CM and is more of a summary than anything? :lol: I know we should be happy someone translated it at all but IMO the translator should mention it's not a full translation because it makes the original article seem cheaper and more un-informative than it actually is and that's rude behavior as a translator towards the original article. (Sorry - my field of study/work are translations so I'm a little oversensitive about stuff like this sometimes :sweatingbullets: please just ignore the rant). Anyway, I know the google translation is horrible and there could be some mistakes but please refer to it if you're curious about tiny bits of info on CM. I highlighted the important missing parts:

      Reveal hidden contents

    (skipped unrelated)

    In August, the Korean version of 'Criminal Minds' is expected to be seen. This drama is a show of professionals who solve the case from the point of view of criminals. It keeps an average of about 13 million viewers per episode from 12 episodes this year since its airing on CBS in the US in 2005 It is a global popular drama.

    Initially, KBS debate was discussed, but at present tvN is likely to broadcast in the summer. Lee is proposing a male protagonist and is under consideration. Lee Jun Ki, who has confirmed his solid acting once again with SBS 'Lovers of the Moon - Scarlet Heart', broadcast last year, and his voice calling for returning to his home is getting bigger. In particular, Lee Jun Ki has promised to "make one piece per year" for his direct fans, so his attention is focused on his actions.

    In addition to Lee Joon-ki, Moon Chae-won, Son Hyun-joo, Yoo Seon and Lee Sun Bin are positively watching the drama. One official said to OSEN: "I think there will be a lot of big scenes in the beginning, so I will start filming next month." "It is expected to become a masterpiece with the biggest production costs in the history of tvN."

    I was looking forward to an accurate translation of the last sentences because these are statements by officials - official as in someone from Taewon Entertainment? The google translation could be wrong but to me this seems like an almost official confirmation that tvN really will be the broadcaster. But I guess we have to wait for more articles or official statements by Taewon Entertainment to be absolutely sure...

    @pixelsticks My Ear's Candy ratings are around 1% (first ep with Joon Gi 1.1%, second 0,8%) most of the times. But rating was about the same in the first season so I don't think tvN expects too much

     

    @oyashirazu OMG! My deepest bow to you! The list is absolute poetry. Do not worry about it being long, it will just show LJG how much effort, thought and attention to detail all his fans notice about him.  He will feel our loyalty and unwavering affection through this wonderful list.  Regarding your question (see bold)...absolutely! You did an amazing job merging everything together. Thank you for wording it so beautifully. LJG will love it and we love you for putting this all together.  He loves his fans, and now he has something tangible to hold of how we love him thanks to you.

    Stargazers, did anyone else see all the SHR references in the teaser?!?!

    NL1.png
    Water Lily
    Hae Soo represented water in SHR. Lily is IU's English name. The water lily also represents the water related scenery for SoHae moments, like the lake, the pond, etc. In BBJX, 4th Prince's secret place on the lake was amongst the water lilies.

    NL1.5.png
    Handwritten Letters
    This is the theme of Night Letter (Through the Night) as explained by Composer JaeHwan. Handwritten letters were passed between SoHae. Wang So's poem. Hae Soo's letters to him while she waited for him to come for her. The moments Hae Soo practiced her calligraphy with Wang So's handwriting and the way she kept practicing beside him as he went about his daily duties as king. Here, even the way IU is holding the letter is similar to the way Hae Soo held Wang So's letter.

    NL2.png
    The Back Turning
    The way IU turned back to look at the camera in this shot is very reminiscent of the way Hae Soo turned back to look at the palace when she was leaving Wang So in episode 19.

    NL3.png
    The Posture / The Rice Wine Bottle
    This scene is also very reminiscent of the scenes in which Hae Soo was writing to Wang So. I originally thought the flower vase was actually a rice wine bottle because the baby's breath blended in with the window scenery. Still, it could be a double meaning with the baby's breath representing everlasting love, innocence, and pureness and the vase, itself, appearing like a rice wine bottle that represents the drinking sessions she had with Baek Ah and also all the times she had served rice wine as a court lady.

    NL4.png
    Marbles
    Marbles for Eun~ Enough said

    NL5.png
    Hand Shadow
    I actually can't recall this one, so help me out. Wasn't there a scene where Hae Soo covered the sun or the rays of light with her hand?

     

    Sorry cut your post but wanted to offer help on the hand shadow.

    I just had to come out from lurking for this one. @akinahana89this is an amazing analogy.  Yikes...for Ji Eun to be this clever to drop so many hints...more amazing you found them. That's why you are captain.  

    To help on the shadow...I think when Hae Soo first emerged from the cave after transferring to Goryeo she hid her eyes from the sunshine as Chae-Ryung was leading her from the princes' bath. Hmmm, a time of realization for Go HaJin that she wasn't in Kansas anymore (As Dorothy of OZ would say).

    Thanks @sscllccrazy for mentioning his charitable work! This is too important a fact to ignore, indeed. Thanks god you thought of it! I'll try to summarize all the nice stuff you digged up and add it to the final version. Do you think it belongs more to the category "Charm and Personality" or "Fanservice" (or something else entirely?)?

    And thank you so much @joybran for the spelling check! You're a real life safer :wub: 

    And again, thanks to everyone else for their contributions, ideas and opinions!!! You're all jjang ^_^ I'll be back soon with the (hopefully) final version. 

     

     

     

    Sorry to cut your post. Just wanted to say, THANK YOU  @Oyashirazu  for all this time and effort on the list that is well put together. Yes, thank you @joybran  for the awesome spell check, great idea! Everyone's contributions has made this a list that I know will make LJG very happy. A gift that helps him to see what his fans admire about him will be precious and I'm sure very appreciated. The list looks so impressive!!!!  Just my pov (see yellow highlight for your question @Oyashirazu ) LJG's charity may suit under "Charm and Personality" with the subtitle of an 'Artist who is caring with a warm heart'.  What do you think?

  10. There is this too...Sorry I don't know who first posted about it on this thread but this is one of the articles that wrote about 'Letter from Angel's'.

    south-korean-actor-lee-joon-gi-in-a-pictorial-for-cosmoplitans-letter-from-angels.jpg
    South Korean actor Lee Joon Gi in a pictorial for Cosmoplitan's 'Letter From Angels.'

    Cosmopolitan unveiled its annual pictorial campaign for Jo Se Hyun's campaign. His campaign "Letters From Angels," is intended to show support for child adoption.

    Since 2003, photographer Jo has since photographed celebrities holding babies in need of adoption. Yesterday, Cosmopolitan magazine unveiled its annual pictorial for Jo's campaign "Letters From Angels," Soompi reported.

    His campaign "Letters From Angels," features celebrities Kim So Eun, Kim Sook, Sung Hoon, Lee Jae Yoon, Jessica, B1A4's Jinyoung, and Hong Jong Hyun. "Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim" actress Seo Hyun Jin is also included in the list, along with Shin Dong Yup, Ahn Jae Hyun, GFRIEND, and Lee Joon Gi.

    Despite putting their bright smiles for the camera, many of the celebrities got emotional while holding the babies during the pictorial. Full pictorial can be found in Cosmopolitan Korea's December issue and in their official website.

    The full exhibition by Jo is open from Dec. 21 to 27, and will feature more artists like I.O.I and Lee Je Hoon. Some of the photographed celebrities are also expected to be present at the exhibition.

    Meanwhile, the Korean government encouraged its constituents to adopt a baby. However, the government's encouragement seems not to be effective making Korean celebrities to join the campaign.

    As reported by Channel News Asia, in 2015, a total of twenty four South Korean celebrities such as Super Junior's Kangin and Park Chan-ho - one of South Korea's top baseball stars joined Cosmopolitan's annual event. Photographer Jo even revealed that his drive to change South Korea's perception about adoption is what inspired him to start the campaign.

    Koreans adoption culture in the past was not so mature and people do it in secret. With Jo's effort, many have agreed that it indeed started to change the perception of adoption in Korea.

    Many of my media industry friends asking me again and again, why I loves this Paragon of actor so much, and after those long years, why I still kept following his career and his net worth calculation investment in Entertainment indsutry. well, since we are in this industry, we have to move to some young artist and calculates theirs worth. Anyway, this one of kind that I always say to all my colleague that this guy networth not only in those commercial, but also in Social activities. Means that if artist have a Big Heart, it means that they will have a solid long journey. Like Jackie Chan, he also have a many social activities, he famous with his philantrophy way of life. Even Angelinna and Brad Pitt famous with their Jollie Pitt Foundation. If Star doing a charity works because they loves it or they have a big emphaty, means that they can be a good social ambassador or spokeperson. Why many people loves him ? Why he always places some special places in almost everyones in the Entertainment Industry ?Because he's not greedy, he loves Acting the most. Every young Artist that just got their fame are crazy about buy some expensive things or making an investment. But off course not this Unique Star, everyones just caught by surprise when he just donated his bonus from King's man to Youth Centre. And that....my lovely ladies....when everyones wants him stat.....They realised something, this guy is a real deal. and because of him, many management artist asked their artist to makes a donation. well....part of it, they just try to lurched away some of his famous legion of fans....Just remember that he can be 'rich'....he can be the richest artist after his Huge Mega Fandom after his Big Hit in King's Man. But he choose another path. He always mentioned that 'Acting is my passion'!. Maybe because his upbringing in conservatives Roman Catholic family and maybe because he came from engineering family not from family artist background ( like use your head more ??? logical kind of things )
    Lee Joon Gi Social Activities Start from his 1st famous debut :
    He donated his bonus from his 'King's Man' to a Care centre that support teen household. He donated 70 million Won bonus to Korean Youth Center to support ten heads of household in October 2006.
     Lee Jun Ki donated  20 million won to the Korean Citizen's Coalition for Teen Heads of Households in Mid Autum Festival. The money will be used to help pay for the tuition of children who are the heads of their families in December 2006.

    Lee Jun Ki Donates Items for Auction in Thailand, 200718-1(38).jpg

    Korean star Lee Joon-ki is once again showing his generous side, donating some of his personal belongings for an auction in Thailand. The proceeds from the auction will go to the Tapasa Foundation, the Thai royal family’s foundation.

    Lee donated his DVD collection, sunglasses and hat to the Korea-Thailand Cultural Center (KTTC), which will hold the auction. 

    Lee was quoted as saying, he donated the items in hopes of raising money for the Thai royal family’s foundation which helps the poor people of Thailand. 

    Around 5,000 Thai fans attended Lee’s promotional event at the Central World in Bangkok on June 8. He also sold 200 specially designed necklaces at 1,200 baht each. There was also a special draw, where five lucky fans won a chance to have dinner with the actor. 


    'I want to help the Poor', 2008Image2008, Lee Junki (Iljimae) is donating 100 million won (about $70,000) on behalf of disadvantaged youths.

     

    The popular actor’s contribution goes to Korea Youth Protection Association’s Happy Community Children Center. A representative from the association expressed their appreciation, saying, “I was moved to see Lee Junki inquiring about and taking an interest in the children’s center.”

     

    Lee went to the center on December 4 to deliver the funds in person. According to his reps, he had told them previously of his intent to donate his earnings from his last CF to an outreach organization. The center serves poor and working-class children in the community by teaching them English (or Korean to the children of foreign laborers), math, and other academic subjects for free. It’s the giving season, and despite the current slump in the Korean entertainment industry (and, well, worldwide).

He wanted to go to the Beijing Olympics and cheer for the Women Handball team but couldn’t due to his family’s financial matters. He applied to the ‘Make a Wish’ group and now he’ll receive Lee Jun Ki’s support.

     


    Lee Jun Ki Launches a Relief Campaign for Sichuan Earthquake Victims for Red Cross



    Lee Jun-ki has stepped forward with his fans to help the victims of the devastating earthquake that hit the Sechuan Province in China.

    Lee's management agency said the gesture was his way of giving back the love and support he has been receiving from his Chinese fans. The actor--when he read the news that his Chinese fans had launched a campaign to collect 1 yuan coins for the quake victims--decided to begin his own relief campaign to collect one thousand won notes, equivalent to one U.S. dollar, with his Korean fans. All of the proceeds will be donated to the Red Cross.

    Kim and Lee made friends with the villagers particularly a family with three children, namely Vicky (9), Dimas (7) and Putri (11). The three children who live with their grandmother Rantes (70) survive by collecting rubbish from the neighbourhood dumping ground, recycling the waste (picking out things) to sell for money. The father of the children is currently missing.

     

    The party donated 7.5 million won in funds, a classroom computer and basketball goalpost to the school where Vicky, Dimas and Putri goes to.

    Lee Jun-ki took many photos during the trip and he said that he learned many things from the simple ways of the children. Lee also said that he hopes to return to this outreach and perhaps in future, sponsor a global village of poor children.

    This television program will be broadcast in two parts on 21st and 28th March, 2009 respectively. It will be on tvN at 9pm (Seoul time).

  12. @oyashirazu WOW! you are so fast...I wonder if one thing can be added UGH! you decide if it can fit...LJG has also donated his time and money over the years of his career. It would be nice if it can be acknowledged.  I'm sorry after all that hard work I'm throwing this at you.  I know he did the TvN Love World Jakarta with Kim Ha Nuel 2009 and he did one that posted him with a baby with clef lip? I'm so awful I don't remember the name..."Angel something?" Perhaps someone here can point out.  I'm still lacking in so much of his bio but charitable contributions is so worthy of being mentioned. What do you think? He's an actor who gives back.

    69. He is a man of courage: He went all the way to Seoul with almost no money on him to fulfill his dream to become an actor. Do I remember this fact correctly? Can't find the interview in which he talked about this.

    Wow! @Oyashirazu thank you so much for the amazing work merging everyone's contributions.  If it helps, he's mentioned his moving to Seoul a couple times. I do remember he talked about it  in Healing Camp.

    Here is one I've always been impressed with...He's an "Actor's Actor".  Notice how many senior actors repeat performing with him movie or dramas? He said he was once told off by a senior actor when early in his career he would play and dance around between scenes. But after the actor saw him get down to business, the senior actor told him he will go far.  I believe this was also told by JG during Healing Camp. An "Actor's Actor" is one who is acknowledged by their peers and more veteran actors. 

    Just my POV I think the more detailed the list (as you have it) it will be more meaningful to the reader (LJG). When being given compliments, the more information or details, the more appreciation he will have in understanding how each point is defined by those who care so much about him (his fans).

  14. @Oyashirazu thank you so much for organizing and putting together a great list to a great actor who I know will appreciate reading what his fans think of him. Not sure if these were mentioned? If so, I apologize for the extra work in looking these over.

    94. He has a great sense or code of ethics.  He can be super sexy without having to do scenes that eliminate the imagination of lovemaking.  He is romantic and demonstrated great sex appeal in the movies like Never Said Goodbye and even Virgin Snow and didn't even need to take off his shirt. What a man! I admire an actor who can give you all those feels without having to exploit himself. 

    95. He is charming without putting on aires nor worries about where he is or how he should behave if it can convey his appreciation whether at an airport tired from a flight or coming out of a restaurant or even a car (coming or going). He was the only actor after the Lotte PC who stopped to meet the fans.  The others just kept walking and tried to look away from the fans. He will also act a part with enthusiasm whether in Running Man or Running Man (Chinese vers) and give the audience a fun side of himself even if it makes the other actors blush.

    96. He can wait tables and serve with charisma. Saw him demonstrate this on the Running Man Chinese version when he guested. He was a waiter before he made his breakthrough.

    97. He takes full responsibility...whether the drama he stars in has ratings not as expected or his hard earn savings were embezzled by people he trusted. He ultimately takes the responsibility. He doesn't want to place blame on anyone. 

    Again, sorry if these were already mentioned in some form of description that differ from above.

  16. Thank you nsyavita for the kind welcome. It is so fun to check in here and read all the crumbs of this OTP. Yes, it is a bit quiet, but that is due to all the work the two have getting ready for their big projects. 

    I saw LJG wearing a pinky ring at the prescon in August (right pinky).  I looked past that date of old photos and saw he wore rings on other fingers but not the pinky.  As best as I could search anyway. By his FM for the final episode of MLSHR, the pinky ring was worn on his left and remained so until his Singapore FM when it changed to his right again. It was posted here that Ji Eun was wearing one on or around Feb 27, 2017. I know her break up news came Jan 22nd while LJG had his HK FM. As I mentioned there were two times, Jan 22nd and Jan 25th he was wearing rings on both pinkies. I am probably grasping at straws and romanticizing that LJG is sending messages to LJE through his rings LOL. Please don't mind me...

  17. Thank you for the warm welcome MariMari00.  Nice meeting you! I'm not very good with posting, but I'm so grateful to you and all the amazing stargazers & shippers who have given so much to this couple.  It gives silent lurkers like me who are timid about posting a happy place to visit every day. I know this ship is sailing strong and I have faith in LJG/LJE.

    I do have an observation that has been bothering me. Maybe you and the other experienced detectives can see if I'm delulu or not?  LJG wears rings, but not on his pinky in the past. At least from photos I've looked back on. I may have missed. Beginning around August 2016 I noticed he wears a pinky ring. Not necessarily the same one. However, there was a post about JiEun wearing a pinky ring on her right finger. So it made me start looking at past photos. Looking at photos prior to August I don't see him wearing a pinky ring? I could be wrong. He doesn't wear rings at formal events (award shows) or photo shoots or interviews, but if you look at his fanmeets or airport sightings, he is wearing a pinky ring. However at the two premiers Fabricated City and New Trial 2/6/17 he didn't wear a pinky ring which is what threw me off. I tried to see if there is a time period of wearing one on his right and then to his left then back to his right. Someone also posted a description about wearing rings on certain fingers (I'm so sorry I don't know who posted it) and that it has specific meanings in Korea. I'm not sure LJG cares about the meaning exactly, but it sure is a bit curious. Yes, there are a couple times he wore it on both too. What caught my attention is not seeing it on his pinky before Ji Eun.  I must be desperate for crumbs.  I know in Healing Camp he mentions he wears rings on the fingers that it fits. I guess I'm hoping the pinky ring was something reserved for when he met that perfect someone. It could just be one of those things. Hope someone can help shed some light on this for me?

  18. Hi, I'm new and like probably 1000's have enjoyed reading all of your wonderful posts and contributions. Thank you so much for bringing such enjoyment to my life. I'm really supporting JoonU and I am rooting for them. I've spent over a year reading in soompi forums.  I actually enjoyed another OTP which is how I stumbled upon the Soompi forum.  I finally signed up to thank all of you.  Things are a bit quiet and understandably since LJG and LJE are probably very busy. I began backreading Lee Joon Gi's thread. I found it amazing that on p 403 of his thread there was an interview first mentioned by Wendy and Seirin by IWeeklyMagazine Singapore translated by mintyjunki posted June 29, 2006 the following:

    Writer: As an artist, will getting into a relationship be tough?
    LJK: There is no time to, the chances of meeting a mate is too slim. I will be continuously busy this year. Maybe next year.
     
    Writer: What type of girl attracts you?
    LJK: The funny (weird) and cute ones. I prefer girls with light makeup, those that takes pride in their work, a sense of passion in life. She must also have an innocent look that will make me want to protect her.
     
    Writer: How will you let a girl know your feelings towards her?
    LJK: I tend to get shy when I see a girl I like. Perhaps I will get some friends to arrange a 'coincidental' meeting, and make her go "Wow, we are fated to meet..." Haha, I need friends to help make this work.
     
    Sorry, I'm new at this...I hope this is allowed?  I just find it so interesting that a young LJG stays so consistent with the type of girl he likes.  LJE is that perfect description of his ideal from all those years ago.  Around that time, there was also a radio interview from Singapore with LJG. Sorry, it was mentioned also by Wendy not sure what page,  LJG asked to be invited to Singapore with using "Over, Over" as a phrase for "Do you all hear" LOL.  I don't know why it never happened? 10 years later he made it.  I'm still back reading his thread. I first saw him in My Girl and was captivated by his acting skills and good looks. It would be so nice if he has found that special girl (aka LJE).
