spc44 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 He is a v decent man indeed. When he did not make any announcements after the MBC TV show, I thought to myself how can he not say something to protect her. With this announcement in the plan no need to say anything. I am so happy for kyo, he is someone she can rely on. Finding her true love and starting a family have always been her wish. I am working using my lunch break to catch up on news.

songsonggggggggg Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 41 minutes ago, snoopy18 said: I am confused about the timeline though...based on SJK's message, he proposed and they decided to get married on the start of 2017 right? Which ties in with Laneige's FB posting. But why did dispatch show that one of their sources claimed that SJK confirmed his feelings to SHK during their trip in Tokyo (also in 2017)? I thought they were already dating before that? Confused but still happy nonetheless cos it is the end game that matters! And SJK, SJK...I don't think you have ever treated SHK as a "friend" first before becoming lovers...your actions, your expressions gave you away from the start! Hey! That was exactly what i thought so as well! I'm actually really confused.. I thought they have been dating since DOTS or maybe after they have completed DOTS. Yet Dispatch mentioned that it was the day where JK expressed (confessed) his true feelings towards HK.. On the other hand, I read that that was actually the day of JK proposing to HK. And of these (whether either is true) took place in Tokyo btw! So i'm really confused with the information given by different sources... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanaeozora Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 I'm honestly very happy about this. I've always thought Joong Ki was a man more mature than his actual age and I feel he will take good care of Hye Kyo, also Hye Kyo herself, despite being 4 years older, seems to me like she's the one who brings the carefree, youthful side of the relationship so, I think they'll complement each other very well. I wish them all the best in their married life and I'll now daydream of how insanely beautiful their kids are going to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porktocino Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 OMG! This is actually happening. Unlurking after a year of not posting in this thread for this special moment. We did it everyone. Our ship has finally arrived. Still unreal when I remember the days of that news of that late night rendezvous at some milk tea shop?? and that New York sighting and how giddy everyone was. I know this thread has been slow lately but I'm dearly hoping everyone who made this thread so much fun those early days should come out from whatever rock they have been hiding from and celebrate this wonderful moment. @joongkyo where are u??

She appears aloof only because she is generally more shy and childlike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnistaD Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 thank you for #respectsongsongcouple and #supportsongsongcouple dispatch♥ i cant help crying again reading their heartfelt letter♥ https://www.koreadispatch.com/2017/07/05/song-joong-ki-shares-his-marriage-news-with-fans/ https://www.koreadispatch.com/2017/07/05/song-hye-kyo-shares-her-big-news-with-fans/ facebook | instagram Song Joong Ki Shares His Marriage News with Fans Updated July 5th 2017 GMT [Dispatch] On July 5, the news of Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo getting married in October 31, 2017 was released through their agencies. Soon after the news, Song Joong Ki has released an official letter to his fans about the news. Below is Song Joong Ki’s Official Letter Fully Translated. “Hello, This is Joong Ki. It’s been a long time since I’ve said hello to you. Though I am more nervous than ever right now, the reason why I am writing to you is because I want the blessings from you before anyone else and I want to share my true feelings. Recently, I have been blessed to be a part of a great drama and was given tremendous love from fans that was the happiest days of my life. Through those happy moments, I gained another precious friend whom I shared my true feelings and we have developed into a loving relationship. On the beginning day of 2017, we have promised each other to spend the rest of our lives together and to fill each other’s incompleteness with love and to start our new life together, I will marry actress Song Hye Kyo on the last day of October, 2017. I understand this abrupt news might have caused my dear fans some discomfort. I wanted to share this happy news with you as soon as possible, however, this is a matter that just not involve one person but two and further family’s opinion was very important to me. So, it was a situation that needs to be dealt carefully and thoughtfully. Also, a movie where tremendous amount of efforts and passions were put into was about to premiere and I did not want to be any harm to the production staff and fellow actors due to my personal life. I sincerely ask for your kind understanding, if I have seen to be a less-understanding self, I apologize. The promise I made with myself when I first started acting comes to mind. Being an actor, I wanted to be a person who can be a better self embracing my surroundings rather than moving up the ladder and be a celebrity that is not so high up but rather be closer to fans, be friendlier, be kind and be more responsible. I have heard this phrase that life is not about speed but rather about direction. I will take it step by step, remembering the true values you have taught me, try to be wise and learn about the beautiful surroundings that I have been missing, the real values and about people. I ask you to support my values and cheer for me. I will live with my words and be a better actor and a better family man. Please give your blessing to the two of us. Thank you.” -Song Joong Ki Copyright©2010 dispatch korea. All rights reserved. Contact us facebook | instagram Song Hye Kyo Shares Her Big News with Fans Updated July 5th 2017 GMT [Dispatch] Song Hye Kyo released an official letter to her fans about Song-Song couple’s marriage news. Below is the full letter translated. “Hi, This is Hye Kyo. It’s been a long time since I said hello to Sunflower. I wanted to share a personal message here first, a place where I have been connecting with my fans since my debut. You must have been shocked to hear my marriage news today. I understand that you may think I lacked the respect for my fans and you could have been surprised, but I sincerely hope that you can understand me with an open heart. Joongki and I were first co-workers who had really good chemistry. Throughout filming, I realized we had similar values and thoughts and we could talk about everything and anything with each other. He was a good co-worker and a good friend to me, so we kept on touch after finishing the drama and we spent time to get to know each other better. For a long time after that, he has continuously shown me faith and trust that I began to think that I could spend my future with him. I was grateful for his true feelings and I grew confident in him. I wanted to share my marriage news with my fans first but because it is not just about myself that I had to be extra careful. I am really nervous right now sharing the news so suddenly but I trust that you will support me. You have been with me throughout my career supporting and trusting my decisions so I hope you continue to show me support and love. Once again, I am truly grateful to my fans who have been patiently waiting for me to tell you the news myself. Since now it will not be just me, but the two of us, I will take this opportunity to look around and be a positive influence. Please give us your warm blessings. Thank you.” – Song Hye Kyo Copyright©2010 dispatch korea. All rights reserved. Contact us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryofbethany Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 HAPPY for Song Song Couple, indeed this is a good news (no, excellent news) for kdrama land, i am not songsong shipper, but i can feel the 'releasing of joy and freedom' from months or yr of burdens to stand the stress from media's in SJK and SHK hearts. this is so great that even non-shippers can felt the joy in this fandom, whether is it joy from shippers, or SJK's fans or SHK's fans... its still real hope fulfilled, Happy Ending don't just happen in Dramaland, SongSong proven that. its a GREAT Day. Thank God for Happy Ending!!! Real-DotS 2 : continued on today!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imani Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Been silent reader, since I found this tread last year. First time been a shipper, and watched all SHK drama and movie since AIMH (I was 12 years old when I watched Korean Drama). Nothing can show happiness when I read this news this morning in the office. Luckily my family and friends understand my craziness. SHK gonna be the pretiest bride ever and I can imagine SJK's smiling eyes and face. Cannot wait to see their fist bump on their wedding day. SJK is every girls' dream and SHK is every man's dream. I wish for their happiness together until the end. First version of their wedding, before 31 October 2017. Big congrats to Song Hye Kyo and Song Joong Ki for your wedding. I'm glad and happy to be their shipper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moniegold Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 The way I understood the timeline was that the proposal indeed happened in January of 2017 in Japan. Regarding Dispatch's source, I understood the "confirmation of feelings" bit to be that he confirmed/expressed his wanting to be with her forever etc. during that time, at the surprise party he organized. (To which she agreed and said yes, of course.) ANYWAY, delurking for the second time just to say CONGRATULATIONS to the SongSong Couple. My friends and I are all extremely happy for them and we've barely gotten any work done today. Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieknows Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 @joongkyo1031 Waaaaah! Great to see you back! The celebration wouldn't have been the same without you here! You've been here from the beginning! So, I'm so happy you returned and posted! @twtwb I echo P's sentiment! Thank you for giving us this thread! Thanks to the lot of you have also continued to welcome us here! To everyone else, thanks for posting. I hate to miss out on the fun, but it's also great to be waking up to a backlog of messages again! This time, there's no more need for speculations! We have the real deal! And I/we no longer have to be jealous of the shippers of the Blood couple and of other celeb couples who tied the knot this year! Haha. And just when I thought I could get on with some semblance of normalcy in my life, I'm thinking that might not happen just yet, as we'll all be counting down to October 31st. Dispatch (with the Songs' approval) should unleash a bunch of SS photos every day until that big day! They have to have a reserve! I wish I can say more, but I think everyone has expressed what should be said! @hclover96 Hahaha! Yay! Woman! Took you long enough! @Amy Phan Hey, Ms. Phantabulous! Thanks to you and Ace Chingu for sharing the translations of the Songs' messages! We've been so lucky to be spazzing with you all this time! The Songs' messages are very heartfelt and one can tell the nervousness they felt as they composed them, and yet, even though there's a touch of restraint/cautiousness in their tone, one can also feel a slab of genuine love and respect the two have for each other. It is wonderful that they can call each other friends and lovers (and soon, husband and wife) all in the same breath, as to me, this means they've worked hard on this relationship while also just allowing their hearts to grow even more for one another. With that friendship, they've built a foundation of trust, and with trust, they were able to nurture their feelings for each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanaeozora Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 ^ Seriously, just look at them on these gifs...anyone who says they don't match need their eyesight checked stat. Also, while I understand it's all part of the Korean (and generally Asian) entertainment culture, it still upsets me when I see these immensely talented people apologising for having normal feelings and desires such as wanting to marry the person they love. I don't think they should be sorry about anything, a true fan of them should just be happy and wish them all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikyoamomentafter Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Let's forget everthing friends.... Especially bad news... Whether about the accuracy timeline of their dating dates, or bad news from the family, or anything bad we heard. What is important right now is them... Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo... They have chosen the right path and to keep their love for each other in real life... That is for me good enough. And from now on they will continue their journey in life full of love for each other, as a whole, for they have found their other half. Congratulations Song Hye Kyo and Song Joong Ki, from us the shippers and I am sure that you'll two will receive it again and again.... And again.... And again.... I am so proud to be one of this shippers and I feel like to hold each one of you, the real and comited shippers in my hands for a hug. Thank you friends, and because all of you, and your comments about SongSong Couple, I have been in this thread, I feel happy and sad, and I don't ever regret because I sign in a little later to comment. Yours have made me happy for almost 2 years now. So I sincerely congratulate the persons who made this threat happened for the first time, and all the fans and shippers, who wrote, who complaint, who supported and who shared many happy and sad feelings about The SongSong Couple. I am really sure that you have 100% faith in our SSC. I believe that Song Hye Kyo is a good person, with beautiful manners and kind heart. That is why God sent her Song Joong Ki, another half of her with the same beautiful characters as hers. And I am pretty sure, because of Song Joong Ki's good characters, and kind heart, God made him meet his other half, and it happens to be Song Hye Kyo. I am hoping and willing to listen to their confession about their love story, pictures and anything, if ever they want to share it with us..... I hope you two, Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo, will live happy life as others lovers on this earth have... Having a true love made from the stars and preserve it more stronger each day ahead. Loving each other everyday for the rest of your lives. We the shippers, will always feel warm and tender as your real love at last find each other. We will always be behind you and support you as we can.... Congratulation again... And again....!!! Shippers, please preserve the DATE! OCTOBER 31St 2017!

When they say "confirmed his feelings" I do think it means that he proposed marriage to her. The translations have to be understood within the context of Korean culture and language - things don't always translate into the Englishes most of us might be familiar with (translation always needs to take into account cultural contexts and I've noticed not many Korean-to-English translations are carefully done that way [I'm a trained interpreter, btw, though not Kor-Eng-Kor, but the principles are the same]) So basically, in terms we are more familiar with, they probably had interest in each other in early 2015, developed feelings during filming, explored these feelings further post-production, had time to carefully sort out their media lines during the airing and through 2016, and by the start of this year, he proposed.
