JY probably knows some Spanish since he used to hang out with a bunch of Spanish in Shanghai over beer. Just to be clear, we are not anti-Europeans here. @Kim Kruisbessie, @charlie10 and @Scandani are Europeans who are regular Addicted soompiers. Speaking of which, I hope @Scandani is okay. It's been a while since we hear from her... I think my point has always been that if you want to influence China, you cannot be confrontational. If the message is "We love the show.", "The actors are fantastic.", "I want to learn Mandarin because of the show.", "I like to visit China because of the show", it will soften the ban on the boys. But if it is "China is oppressive", "China has violated human rights", "We must protest", "We must change China", then they will likely stay extremely defensive and the boys will continue to suffer... I hope you understand that it is because we really really love the boys dearly that we do not want any more bad things to happen to them. Hence, we (or maybe I) may come across as hostile. Besides, this is a fan site. I don't think we want this to become a political one. Having said that, if it helps the boys, I believe all of us will assist. You probably have noticed their sell out concerts, and photobook, DVD sales, for example. @xix19xix Thanks, yes we know of those Europeans fans but we know also about some others very active in linking you with us We are all fans expressing our appreciation in our utmost and best caring European way. We know about the DVD, the photo book and also about the paypal account. We have friends living in Asia that are informing us constantly as I just wrote. I think some recently open an American Addicted fan group on FB and also an European one if i am not wrong, plus twitter and google + that are widely used in Europe and in America. We are well informed and when we have some news from what we are doing i will let you know, nothing different from that.

liesl Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 @sohocomo Hi auntie! You don't know how excited I am reading your tarot analysis since I've been thinking about learning Tarot for a long time. I know that's not how Tarot works but it's still interesting read nonetheless. ========================================================= @pabloyalex Hola! You'll be surprised to know that many soompiers here are Europeans. I'm from Germany myself for example and I know a lot of regular European soompiers as well. Also I don't think we were hesitating a lot to go in here. I mean this is english speaking forum after all. A friendly and welcoming one at that. Though if you know some people who hesitate to join in, then please tell them that they're all welcome to jump in. I could imagine some people are hesitating to join in because of the number of pages. So I think the hesitation can't be limited to Europeans only. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he said:"What do you want?" By the way, @bearology and @ryokise, one question. Do you all know why FS and CW has livestreams related to the Bazaar Charity show? I understand that JY is going to attend the show. Yet he has no livestream for the event? Did I miss something? Who is attending the event? By the way, the interview with ZZ was by a very experienced and respected journalist and host, Yang Lan. She was voted as one of the 100 most powerful women in the world by Forbes magazine in 2013. For her to mention about dogs and cats, shows that she is also CPF HJY DOES SPEAK ENGLISH LIKE A GANGSTER!!! Scary! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gayyoxx Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 3 hours ago, pabloyalex said: Hola Soompiers Hi! It's nice to see you here. I am quite puzzled by the notion that our forum has... difficulties... with Europeans because so many of us here are Europeans and we have been here since February, before the ban. We were here during the first episodes of Addicted, fawning over the chemistry we found, shocked by the ban, going ups and downs day by day (or, was it minutes by minutes? Oh, the old days full of emotional roller coaster!). I am myself an Englishman (don't let my firecracker temperament fools you!) and I have never found any discrimination against me or whatsoever here. There have been differences in opinion and views, which inevitably were influenced by cultural differences between fans here, true, but that's what makes this forum fascinating! When I first learned about the ban, and the subsequent consequences, I was furious (well, I still am). I was hoping that CJD's company would do what myself would do: start a petition, arrange demonstration etc. Making it as loud as possible to gain attention and transform that public attention into political pressure. It was bloody confounding for me to see how ... accepting CJD, JY and ZZ were toward the ban and injustice that follows. But then, I learned that there are other ways to express your defiance or protest different than the "western style". Instead of being noisy (as I would have), they chose to remain silent but work hard, trying to defy the ban by proving that they are talented and capable of producing great works. Now, months later, I can see that their methods are working. Instead of stifled by the ban against Addicted (and the "unofficial ban" against JY and ZZ showing in everything under sparft's jurisdiction, which have been debated and discussed over and over again in this thread), JY and ZZ are steadily carving their achievements in Chinese entertainment industry and the world. It is true that JY and ZZ are still young and have lots to do but at least, they have begun their first steps. So, tl; dr: I kindly invite fellow Europeans lurking here to join this thread and involve in enlightening debates/discussions with fellow fans from all over the world here. Also, while I can understand the passion to campaign over JY and ZZ's cause in the "European way", in my opinion, it would be better for us to support them and allow them to deal with their circumstance using methods they deem fit. If you want to spread the news of Addicted and gather support for JY and ZZ, I suggest you take into account this brilliant advice from @xix19xix: 3 hours ago, xix19xix said: If the message is "We love the show.", "The actors are fantastic.", "I want to learn Mandarin because of the show.", "I like to visit China because of the show", it will soften the ban on the boys.

Because someone posted IG with a cat so the other has to have something with dogs And not just dogs auntie, its blue and red. You remember 5ML once posted their photos together? The post with lyrics from "love should be honest" before ZZ Thai Concert and ZZ actually sang that song? That photo ZZ was red and JY was blue. Also, the only 2 colours JY used to draw his ambulance were red and blue (If I'm not wrong, he did mention in his livestream that he only had these two colours. That why fans were thinking that he took it from the colour pencil box K-fans gave ZZ during his Korea Concert because its from the same brand) #deluluismymiddlename 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a fan in the meteorological station too See picture. @xix19xix hahaha great now we are up to date with the wether over there hahahaha i can't stop laughing this is so funny @gayyoxx At first when i found out that Addicted was banned i had read that somewere on YT in the comments i tought the same thing, like now is there a great serie with a lot of potention to get a lot of viewers and China ban it. But i also knew a litle bit about China that the put up a wall if you confront them it will not work at all. Addicted as i was already landed after google here on soompi and it opened a door for me to get to know more about not only Jingyu and Zhouzhou but also about the culture from China and to understand how these two guys working so hard to get a career of the ground with still that ban and still are positive. I admire there patience the have not to get angry and still hard working and so friendly to there fans posting messages talking to fans on a manner what i never have seen here in the west. Jingyu and Zhouzhou so kind hearted to there fans and the fans also to them. It surprised me every time again it feels like a warm family here @bearology OMG i'm melting here look at his face and his arms yummyyyyyyyyyyy Spoiler 1 hour ago, bearology said: 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Soompi default. If you try to post a word that is considered explicit (for example *ss with an 'a' instead of an asterisk) the Soompi system will automatically convert it to 'richard simmons'. Why? That's just what Soompi does. (I've often wondered if Richard Simmons, the man himself, knows that his name is used in this manner?
