Hope the little darling Rest In Peace. These devils must be severely punished till eternity. Child abuse is among the most disgusting crimes-

Really love to see the kind of answers JH would give to interview questions are as expected as he is still the same sincere young man over the years
Here’s to cheer for 2021 and wish him the best in becoming a trusted name for good projects as he wishes- “JH agreed to do this drama/ movie. It must be good”

Happy New Year!
Hello @JuneRain nice seeing you here too, GY oppa is also the best actor in my life, the only one I call myself a fan of
I have been very occupied and distracted in the binjin thread haha, coming back as I came across this nice photo of Ji Min and oppa which looks to me like bts of The Age of Shadows. I don’t recall such a scene throughout the movie. Ji Min in red is always particularly pretty! Despite the love interest, they didn’t have many scenes together at all and their love story was also not developed so I also hope there is another cooperation opportunity. The compatible looks and the amazing acting by both will guarantee an excellent project!
seeing Binjin so happy also makes me feel a little bittersweet and impatient for oppa and Ji Min. These two still give the nonchalant vibe when it comes to the dating/ marriage topic. Oppa is quite literally running out of time
and Ji Min is the last one standing among both the 1982 beauties and the three Han beauties of BH Ent. (along with Han Ga In and Han Hyo Joo)

I remember oppa said in an interview years ago that he is aware of himself being among the 4 most eligible bachelor actors of Korea- “I heard I am one of the most representative bachelor actors of Korea with Kang Dong Won, So Ji Sub, and Hyun Bin”. He also acknowledged that given SJS and himself are the oldest, they should be out/ get married asap. Well, that was years ago. And as of this moment SJS indeed already got married, HB is getting married, even oppa’s cousin KDW can potentially beat him in the race here as at least there had been signs of him being romantically involved with HHJ. But as for oppa, I’ve been waiting for something for FOURTEEN years now and can only sigh
. He is the best actor in my life, the only one I call myself a fan of. I’m not even sure if he is still somewhat considering the idea of lifelong commitment. But here is to wish him the very best in his quest for happiness. He has already had a fantastic career and how great it would be if he achieves the same in personal life
P/s sharing the kiss scene that even 10 years later still makes my heart beat fast every single time

A long, reminiscing post as my tribute to this ship’s historic day 01/01/2021. We have discussed bits and pieces over our past...almost 1,400 pages
I have always been convinced CLOY is the “pre ordered” present that Bin Jin wished to gift each other as a keepsake of their fateful journey together. Hence why the drama was full of shippers’ crumbs and tributes to Ye Jin and Hyun Bin’s past works.
Se Ri and Captain Ri started off having nothing to do with each other. This is similar to when Hyun Bin went to the VIP premiere of YJ’s movie “A moment to remember” in 2004 without knowing her; and YJ doing a cameo in Secret Garden (2010). Then Seri and Captain Ri passed each other by in Switzerland 10 years ago (when she had suicidal thought and he was leaving the country after hearing the news of his brother passing), like how Bin Jin met but didn’t communicate at PIFAN in 2014. And apparently they were offered chances to work together at various points in the past but also for various reasons these offers were turned down.
As fate would have it though, Seri crashed landed into Captain Ri’s life. This was when “The Negotiation” happened and YJ and HB swept each other off their feet.
Even in ep. 1- Seri’s secretary already dropped the first hint “Those two are definitely dating”
Ep. 8 after credit- Seri paid tribute to Kim Joo Won’s infamous lines in “Secret Garden” on Christmas. “Why is someone else’s birthday important, why would you bother to decorate a tree, write a card and give gifts”
Ep.12- Captain Ri enjoying a beer at the end of a day, just like how Hyun Bin would like to finish the day as he shared in an interview during Cloy airing
Ep. 13 cinema date- the vibe is 100% the cinema promo interview for “The Negotiation”
Ep. 14- Se Ri’s favorite TV channel 20 is the same channel 20 for TVN at both Bin Jin residences (unless they already lived together then!
)
The paparazzi finally snapped photos of RiRi “looking good together” (hello LA grocery shopping!). This then triggered netizens’ Google search of Captain Ri- Bodyguard being the top keyword (“Bodyguard” was also the title of Hyun Bin’s drama in 2003), Ralph (hello again LA grocery!) was the 7th most searched keyword
When captain Ri met Se Ri’s step mum, she asked “how long have you two been dating”
Later in the episode, Se Ri’s 2nd brother’s line “Is it you? The guy from the scandal article about Se Ri?”
ep.14 after credit- rumors have it that the grocery Captain Ri stocked up for Se Ri’s cupboard is the same as the LA ones
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, the great crumbs from ep.15 after credit. Korean NIS psychologists analyzed Captain Ri’s behavioral patterns towards Se Ri. When he is with her, “the centre of his torso faces her 90% of the time”
“Captain Ri mirrored her gestures without thinking many times”
“These are behaviors of a man IN LOVE. IT IS AS CLEAR AS DAY”
p/s the running under the rain is totally “The classic” (YJ’s movie in 2003) and the walking together in the rain under an umbrella is a tribute to YJ’s “Pretty noona who buys me food”. These were Hyun Bin’s way of saying you guys (JIS and JHi) were just passerby’s but I am THE man in her life
thanks @cybertron for building the ship from day 1 and all of us who keep it going strong in the last 1.5 years

@The Reel Life so cute right
Hence why I said Joon Hyung and how goofy he is really resembles JH in his younger days
Let us keep this thread going as a tribute to our boy. Even if the youth don’t visit much we noonas can entertain ourselves here
Sharing another old post that I really like. Sometimes I wish he would post more regularly like in the old days. But in the last couple years he only posted rather infrequently
-
Thank you @The Reel Life! This google drive is exactly the kind of reorganisation I have been talking about
Happy New Year to all jjwogi lovers
May he continue to shine brightly, stay this inspiring and always happy!

@gutterland thanks my friend for the mentioning
While my curious heart is happy for an official confirmation finally (after denials time and time again, unlike MinEun ), I would be honest that I’m not very surprised. It is just like if Dispatch or if King or ggone publicly shares the news, I’m sure none of us will be surprised either I think we are very blessed in this thread with crumbs enough to make a big cake lol. First was the King wearing his heart on his sleeves (posting photos with JUST ggone and not any other girl ever, July 2nd legend), then appa Kim being openly supportive, then the couple items, etc etc. Ggone has been the last and final one keeping quiet and yet on NYE she decided to be a publicly supportive gf as well! And deleted her own IG story promptly for rather late “damage control” hahaha
Happy New Year everyone!

I can hear the wedding bells chiming chiming
Ye Jin has never ever admitted to any relationship publicly ever since her debut. Since she personally came out on IG and shared it herself in such a shy, adorably girly way, this is the extent of how serious their relationship has progressed. Some of us here who have solidly stayed on the ship from day one, we have always said that when they are finally ready to share the news with the public, it would probably be the time they decide to progress to the next stage. While my curious heart is happy with the official confirmation (antis and trolls shut up), I am sure I’m not the only one NOT surprised
Here’s to cheer for them, Hyun Bin sshi please treasure this precious lady, happily ever after please-

From fan meeting tour “Current” in 2018- silly with bestie
@The Reel Life that’s cool that you took classes and can write! As in my case, yes most of my Korean speaking and listening came from K dramas and K movies. I watched the first K drama in 1996 (Medical Brothers by Jang Dong Gun and Lee Young Ae) and used to watch pretty frequently up until 2013. Then between 2013 and 2015 I travelled to Seoul a lot for work so got to practice for survival lol (back then there was zero English in eateries, cafes etc. also no workable English google map). After 2015 though I think my Korean got worse progressively as I haven’t got many chances to practice and also watched significantly fewer productions (2,3 dramas a year max). I’m hoping to visit again once the whole COVID is over

@The Reel Life no worries. See this link, you can play around to see which method suits you better
He has bulked up a lot compared to the KBJ days and prior. Much better now I think. Actually in an interview after School 2015 about the public perception of his appearance, he shared that he was ok with the cute image (at the time), but definitely preferred a manly image in a couple years. What else can I say, every word he speaks, he means itI too really like that he takes the smarter way building his career rather than being shortsightedly comfortable in the popularity bubble. Look at the first generation of Hallyu actors (born in the 60s and 70s), they don’t use any form of social media. They also don’t pick pop culture works. But whatever project they pick, the audience would just give full support based on the faith and trust factor alone. My aspiration for JH is to be like that!

Sharing an interesting read I came across today. Please turn on Google translation to English before you paste the link into your browser
The article first discussed the lengthy process of finding the right house that Josee lived in, given the house is as important as the third main character. It then revealed that there are three versions of the beautiful “reunion in the snow” scene. Last but not least, the ending Scottish scene was actually the first one filmed. While this is a common practice to film the ending first (especially in the case of filming overseas), I personally think it is very hard that the actor and actress have to do the wrap up before they can experience themselves how their emotion will later build up as the filming progresses. Hats off to them!

9 hours ago, The Reel Life said:
the ones that rise from the ashes despite criticism that inspire you with their grit and insane amount of willingness to learn and grow, because those qualities are what sticks with a person through life’s thick and thin, and when fame and fortune are fleeting.
This
@The Reel Life you have summed him up perfectly here with every single choice of word. And I suspect we may have telepathy as I was about to share the exact same thing when I saw your post haha. Being rough translation from a fansite it is a little different but the essence of the message remains unchanged This attitude was formed since JH’s basketball days and it is precious that this commendable team spirit never leaves him. It is also super intelligent as it helps him to stay humble and grounded and constantly learn from those around him. I do think it is the reason why the sunbaes are all fond of him and have nothing but praises whenever they mention about him. Below is an extract from his upcoming Star1 interview (ps the bit about the nonchalant attitude with ratings is clever, especially since he knows so well that he likes portraying flawed, authentic characters)
I used to think hard of a senior that JH somehow resembles. To date I still decide that he is like...no one. He has the look, the height, the voice, the talent, the nice personality like many others. But the combination of sincere humility and fierce competitiveness makes him really second to none. Not to name anyone here but I honestly don’t think any artist in his generation (1990 onwards) has come as far as him. Really really proud!
@The Reel Life btw I meant to ask you many times but keep forgetting, you can write Korean? That’s so cool! I can manage with speaking and listening but not reading and writing

@The Reel Life Josee is not available where I am either. I believe (or rather hope
) some time next year we maybe able to stream it digitally somehow though so let’s wait and see. And those archives from thesunnytown are really good. I have some more but they are kind of all over the place and are mostly screenshots. As mentioned I will try to share after some reorganization!
I agree there is definitely a subtle shift in his interview answers, more guarded as you said. I think it is very natural and expected as he aged and became more experienced in showbiz year after year. The sincere and honest essence of a Busan man is never lost though, I feel, in that he either doesn’t answer or if he does he will only says what he means.
About the LMH comparison, I remembered coming across those articles on koreaboo and the likes. Of course the writers meant it as a compliment, but I’m not sure if the comparison is relevant. LMH is the King of Hallyu and there is only one LMH. To reach where he is today he “framed” himself in pretty much THE ONE image (2nd generation chaebol/ King who fall deeply in love with a girl lower than his social class). Isn’t that the route to fan girls, the same reason why the typical Han Ji Pyeong got all the love? JH prefers ordinary, flawed characters as they are more relatable. I don’t wish and don’t think he will change himself for popularity. He is incredibly hard working so don’t you worry. It will be a long time before he starts only accepting 1 project every 2 year
p/s some love from JH to all his supporters

@The Reel Life I love your review! Same as you here, talk about his acting, in my opinion Start Up is his best performance yet. I know I keep saying this but he DOES get better at each and every subsequent project. People praise his performance in TLIYE more perhaps without realizing that it is because they like the character Joon Ha much more than Do San. Your observation is spot on- in TLIYE he was inspired, guided and followed the amazing sunbaes’ leads. By Start Up he had a great deal of control of his character. Hence we can see from the bts his co stars were inspired by his constant ad libs lol. His performance of Do San is what I like the most about Start Up.
Let me know what you think of Kim Bok Joo
It was a bit young for me, though I would say Joon Hyung his character in that show was very much like himself irl in his early 20s. And Water God, haha, how should I put this- the drama is pointless, there is nothing to the story. It would make you question your existence But in all honesty JH wasn’t that bad in his role (and those criticized ignored that he was only 23 then). It is unfair to blame the failure of such a terrible drama on him alone.
A bit off topic but yes, poignant is the word to describe TLIYE...I thought the show was brilliantly executed. Hye Ja’s life quest revolved only around 2 “tasks”- save her son from the car accident and save her husband from being tortured to death. In the depth of her grief she came up with this imaginary watch that would allow her to turn back time and achieve these 2 tasks
Actually I think knowing the twist beforehand is better as it would give the correct perspective about all the events in the lead up to the twist. The first time watching I thought ep 2-9 were too slow. However upon understanding the twist, I rewatched these episodes and only then was able to appreciate all the little details I just missed or didn’t get the message before
Right now the only genre Im not confident about him attempting is action haha. But he doesn’t have to do everything out there. His rather mellow look and beautiful voice and his characters make him very well suited to humane roles, be it slice of life, melo, psychological or even romcom (which KBJ is). New articles with titles like “the next Lee Min Ho” irritated me as that is not the path that JH takes

From their conversations and interactions at various events since 2018, they appear very close which I’m happy about I think there are a lot of compatibilities in their characters- both are introverted and reserved, both love their families more than anything, both very dedicated in their careers and serious about building their crafts rather than just chasing popularity by picking cliche roles. I can go on and on
However beyond the harmony in looks (sooo beautiful and handsome! Ji Min is blessedly much younger than her age while JH is very mature), their 12 year age gap is not just about a number but it is also a generation gap. I am close to Ji Min in age and from my perspective, she sees JH like a mature dong saeng who she happily opens up to without worrying about any potential rumour like @richelle mentioned. If he was close to her age she probably would not have acted so comfortably for the same reason. Likewise, JH does treat her with a lot of respect too and around her I don’t see him being goofy
like he would around his peers. I love this boy and have been supporting him from his debut days. One thing among many others that I love about him is that he established and maintains very very good relationships with his sunbaes. He genuinely appreciates and learns from them which in turns improves himself while the sunbaes also appreciate him and are fond of him.

Hi chingu @tok-soompi
nice to see you here. Yes I try to keep this thread going as a tribute to JH. The boy’s fan base is mostly young so they don’t visit soompi much. They are a lot more active on IG, Fb and Twitter. Do come by from time to time to make the thread more lively (here and in GY thread too
)
I agree and I think like Ji Min shared when she was asked “what is NJH to you”, she treats him like JIS would, ie. a good younger brother. Ji Min and JH have quite a few commonalities in their characters and get along very well. Moreover it is very hard NOT to be fond of each other after they already had two such tear jerking projects together
I’m so happy that they are close. There is much for JH to learn from Ji Min
