So I was reading a post on another forum about wgm. 
 

I saw a interesting comment talking about how shippers are delusional and that it was well known within the fandom that Taemin was dating a non celebrity during that time. 
 

Honestly i don’t believe that taemin was in a relationship and then at the same time go on a show to play lovey- dovey with someone else (even if it was for a show) It doesn’t make sense especially during that time where he was very busy.

 

Curious, has someone ever hear about him dating a non celeb during wgm 

 

 

I kind of remember hearing about it but it was just a rumour, and it wouldn't surprise me if people just made it up to bring even more hate to Taeun while they were running on WGM 

 

(A person who thinks we are delusional would of course believe the non-celeb rumour  but it's just that, a rumour) The only fans that would indefinitely know who their bias is dating would be fansite masters, I doubt it was really the whole fandom. Especially considering Taemin is so private with his love life. 

 

I do have to add though, there was once a WGM pair who ended their run because the girl had a real life boyfriend, so it's not like it's impossible ^^

My theory is she got a text to look behind and she turned around thinking he would be chatting with someone and it wouldn't be suspicious but he was just standing there grinning at her unabashadely so she got surprised and looked away quickly. It seems that way to me because he looked like he was waiting for her. 

 

I'm a babywol and a babypanda so I'm new to all this but I read a lot of the old thread and this one and it honestly seems like it was so fun back in those days. They seemed to be in a lot of the same events and music shows. I wonder if backstage they had to pretend they're not watching each other perform since 2nd gen waiting rooms were notoriously always full of other groups chatting and having fun together. There must be a thrill to keeping your relationship a secret but it also seems sad and taxing when I think of myself doing it. 

 

The moment that always puzzled me is the one at GDA when exo were doing their speech and he was supposedly looking at the screen on top of where she was standing. He clearly must have been also watching her at times because Key was visibly  scolding him but I can't seem to understand why he would do that. Why not just wait until they're backstage? were they fighting? It just seems so cute no matter how I see it. Also they dated for a long time way before Taemin got his own place in 2017 and to my own understanding an idol couple can only actually have dates indoors. How did they manage that??

But would she of had her phone with her on stage? I don't think idols bring them while they are performing or at the ending stage, but I could be wrong. I don't think they ignore each other backstage, because there's no point lol everyone else around them is probably having secret relationships backstage as well 

 

Ahh yes GDA, It kinda looked like they were fighting? If it's true Naeun was looking at Taemin she did give him quite a mean look... I mean I would not like to be on the receiving end of this look 

Spoiler

Did he get his own place in 2017? wasn't it way after that? I can't remember...

 

But another moment I really like but always question what the hell was going on is that 2015 year end GAYOS especially because it looked like Taemin made Kibum bow to Apink  And there's also that speculation Kibum passed something to Naeun, I try not to look too much into stage moments because it's easy to misinterpret but this stage was very strange 

 

@Geminigurl What do you mean? I went back and still don't understand...

@Catherinecatt Haha Taemin looks so mischievous in that photo with his (and only his lol) albums. 
I always thought it was weird how she knew to look exactly behind her. He probably sent her a text. I love that little moment. She looked so pretty in her white dress performing Only One (if i remember correctly). It‘s probably on instagram if you want to see it again. It‘s really a shame because some of those users tag Taemin and Naeun, but there are some respectful ones who only tag Taeun. 

I know omg we can't even see his face but his eyes!  very mischievous~

 

The way she quickly turned away made me think Naeun didn't know Taemin was standing there, because I remember she turned away so damn quickly and moved her hand to her face like she didn't just lock eyes with the guy she's supposed to be ignoring...  

 

Ugh, yeah A lot of the active Taeun IG shippers do that, so they are a no-no for me...  Shipping Taeun from 2015-2019 was so much fun, I miss it 

[OFFICIAL TAEUN COUPLE THREAD pt2 (TAEMIN & NAEUN)]

@Kat89 It does sound fun to talk about our favourite old past hints  These are mine~

Naeun secretly listening to SHINee in 2018

Spoiler

Taemin posing next to Apink His album in 2017

Spoiler

 

 

One of my fav stage moments is probably when Naeun accidentally looks at Taemin and he just smiles and walks backstage, then Naeun just grabs Chorong or Namjoo and leaves, and the rest of the Apink is standing around like 

 

Not sure what that was about... I guess they really needed to leave  It's a shame these videos are no longer on youtube... *sigh*

 

[OFFICIAL TAEUN COUPLE THREAD pt2 (TAEMIN & NAEUN)]

Shipping is supposed to be fun and not taken so seriously, so I feel like if things like that are bringing you down maybe it's time to take a step back? Yeah, it's likely they could be dating anyone, She could be dating him or she could be dating Taemin but I really see no point in beating yourself up over these speculations especially because we have no say in who our idols date. Lets try not to get hurt by the possibility of others~ Just enjoy the moment.

Don't pay too much mind to their speculations. I mean, we have to consider the possibility of Taeun being in love with other people (and that makes us better prepared if they confirm it), of course, but spending too much time on that will lead into doubting Taeun. And that seems to occur often these days. It's understandable yet - it won't do any good.

 

This very much guys!!

Naeuns insta story on Taemins birthday is pretty cute idk if im being delusional but she filmed pink clouds with the light blue sky behind, maybe im stretching, but consideting its Taemins birthday, its a bit suspicious lol.

Eunji also posted the sky, and a few other idols in korea (I think it generally was just a really nice day) Granted Naeun probably does know what day it is, but it is a bit of a reach

Can someone please provide proofs that Taemin and Naeun are still together and show this girl? Isn't this a bit too much for someone to come forward like this when even our Naeun would not do such a thing publicly? It is delusional fans like this that make it difficult for our Taeun to come out publicly.

 

Note: I had to remove all of the emojis in that girl's message. The forum would'nt allow me to submit my reply with those emojis.

I'm a new Taeun shipper btw. I just found out about Taemin late last year, and I have only started watching WGM and fell in love with these two. Is it normal that I'm annoyed by fans who think Taemin is their boyfriend when obviously there are things going on (or at least have gone on) with Taemin and Naeun? I mean these fans are so annoying that our Taeun couldn't be public about their relationship.

For a lot of fans this is quite normal behaviour so I really wouldn't be worried over this (because if you saw the rest of his fans you'd have a heart attack haha) Not all of them see what we see between Taeun so I guess that's the last thing on their minds. (And I don't recommend showing some random taemint girl who is professing her love to Taemin Taeun proofs because she's obviously not going to listen and it also comes off as a bit possessive on both parts.

Guys, I just noticed something. In Minho’s picture with taemin, there’s a colourful box at the back seat of the car. Isn’t it the same brand with naeun’s current phone case? The flower thing? Omg? 

 

 

Isn't the thing on Naeuns phone just a holder? I can't really tell what the box is only it has a daisy? which is a very common flower design. Unless one of you can point out what it is, I don't think it's the same

Wow! Thank you so much for coming back here and clearing a lot of issues. Now I finally understand where Taemin is coming from.

 

And I do agree with you with regards to some fansites of Taemin knowing his relationship. Cause as a daragon (Dara x Gdragon) fan myself, a lot of our pioneer shippers have information regarding Dara and GD's private life which they usually get from Bigbang korean and chinese fansites. We were also informed that most of his fans knows his relationship with Dara and his relationship with her is like an open-secret already in the Entertainment industry hence no matter how many couple items evidences they have and the many outings in public they have, they were never made it to Dispatch lol. So I'm guessing it goes the same way with Taeun. Their "true" fans might really be helping them out in keeping their relationship private. That's why we never saw photos of them together in public though I read several posts from other Taeun shippers that there are korean fans who saw the two together dining in restaurant years ago (though i'm not sure if the source is reliable though).

 

And yes, I do still see some hints from Shinee from time to time that could tell that Taemin's in a relationship. Add up to that, the guesting of Super M in Ellen's show where Taemin visibly froze and looked nervous when they were suddenly asked if they are all single. Lol

 

Again, thanks for enlightening us new shippers. I can only hope that those two will eventually have their happy ending whether together or apart. 

Although I'm not a daragon shipper pretty much everything you said has happened with Taeun as well, obviously there is a lot of stuff we just don't talk about in the open, I feel a lot of the long time Taeun shippers know about it all but they just don't talk about it to protect them. (And often if someone feels like posting it here, it'll get deleted anyways lol) 

[OFFICIAL TAEUN COUPLE THREAD pt2 (TAEMIN & NAEUN)]

Did you guys see in Taemin's latest The1k video when he was searching his name it showed Naeun next to his search after MOVE, I know this has been happening a lot but it still amazes me after all this time she's still coming up in his searches in Korean and English sites.

Again, coincidence or hints?  I feel like the colours of naeun’s outfit or stuffs always coincide with the colours for shinee/ taemin’s comeback lol remember during move and famous era.. 

Can I be honest? I feel things like this are a bit of a reach. 

[OFFICIAL TAEUN COUPLE THREAD pt2 (TAEMIN & NAEUN)]

If it's true one of those WGM staff women in Taemin's speech was Naeun's PD for Gamgsung camping then yes, one of them was at Naeun's dinner in 2018. (if she's the one who was the PD or not I'm unsure haha)

 

Those were the women at Naeun's dinner (the wgm staffs)

And the women Taemin thanked

Did she unlike it ? Because when I checked she did not like the photo

It's still liked (if you follow someone on the IG app it shows your following first at the top if they liked the picture)

 

And yes very interesting she doesn't follow Naeun but liked her post

Is it the photoshoot she posted today? I tried to search taeyeon in the likes but she’s not in it. 
 

Taeyeon still has it liked. I checked 

[OFFICIAL TAEUN COUPLE THREAD pt2 (TAEMIN & NAEUN)]

You know another reason Taemin hasn't been caught in a dating scandal could be because when he was dating, SM just gave Dispatch a lot of money to shut up, I don't think that's too farfetched. (Plus I heard rumors someone at dispatch used to be a naeun fan but idk )

 

There's a few hints for taeun not being discussed here I've noticed and I understand why  (like family members)

I really am an open mind, I’ve read your posts about this kind of thought, and even that rumor started by an supposed to be saesang, that is still not a really secure source and is very questionable, since it doesn’t show any proof about it. I personally think they might have had some difficulty in the beginning (2014 - beginning of 2016), due to the new kind of relationship and the fragility of it, the need to keep it secret to not hurt the fans, the anxiety of being discovered, and of course the hard work they both put in their own career. But the feelings were probably at their strongest and they managed to keep in touch and to date (we have a picture of Taemin and Kai at Cube ent in the evening during 2014, and we have at the end of 2014 a show with Apink were they tease Naeun about the pictures she keep in her wallet, very strong signs). I don’t personally think they broke up, but it is very possible they had some arguments (not sure if this fit much with Naeun character, but maybe it does with Taemin), maybe some jealousy, and periods were they could not meet because of work schedule. So, more than on-off relationship, it fits more in my opinion the thought of a “long distance relationship”, even if they were living not far, they had many other kind of issues due to the secret nature of their relationship.

 

I believe it fits much better their character: Taemin commits fully in everything, he found the right girl as he said many times during WGM (it’s fate, she is the right girl to marry, and don’t make me start with Naeun’s “forever husband” that in my opinion is something too fishy, something that seems like they talked about between the two of them).

Naeun is the kind of girl who asks so little for herself and is so understanding (if WGM was not enough, we know about fans hate and how she tried her hardest to understand), she is kind and hardworking too, gives all she has.

 

and then there is 2016... in the past I had some doubts about GDA fancam , now I might think there might be another version of it, I don’t really know, but we can see Taemin is still very much taken with Naeun.

My very personal opinion is that during the first months of 2016 they affirmed their relationship in a more stable way, based on some input we have in Taemin and Naeun interactions, and also with SM family.

so I believe Naeun did not have another relationship in 2016, she claimed she is the kind of girl who needs a lot of time to get to know and to trust someone (it took 6 months with Taemin), so it’s really difficult for her to start a relationship.

of course we can’t know the truth and each one of us have to relate to his own perception of their character and what we can see in news, tvshows, fancams. More than basing my speculation on some brief sentence by someone who claim to know, without any proof, I rely on characters, pictures, behavior and situations. Of course I cannot be sure of any of this, and I might be proven wrong anytime... I guess This is  also my delusional thinking x

Is there another version of the GDA fancam? I've always been interested in that moment

Hi, I honestly find something fishy about Naeun between 2016 to early 2017. I suspect that Naeun dated this person around that period, as many taeun's predictions also showed that they might be in on/off relationship especially during 2016 until end of 2017. At first, I think myself is just too much but the proofs are just too strong. I really want to discuss it here because I am so curious about your perspective to straight my mind, but I am afraid to get hates talking other than Taemin-Naeun or if there are people throw hates at Naeun in the end. Because I realized that we cannot delete our post here.

 

So what do you think? should I just post here or maybe some of you want to discuss it through dm?

Personally I don't think other ships with Naeun or Taemin should be discussed here, but if they must be perhaps place it in a spoiler? I'm sure the people who visit this thread like Taeun and wanna see them, it'll be a little frustrating if they saw other ships being discussed.

 

About predictions, they are just that and we really shouldn't be taking them seriously guys  (I do also believe in the on off thing but not because of prediction accounts)
