[Official] ♥ Lee Joon Gi x IU ♥ || JoonU [2016 SBS Best Couple & Hallyu Star Awards!!]

[postnihilism]

Saddened to witness this exodus.mp3. Could we do a roll call for us folks who are still here for JoonU and don't totally hate LJG's guts?? Off the top of my head there's

- myself

- @krysyuy

- @sublimelyheureuse

- @Siracusa

- @akinahana89

... Anyone else want to be part of this club? By all means speak up if I've missed you. (Also, I'm wondering if anyone wants to move over to a private chatroom maybe?? I know antis are lurking here and it's creeping me out tbh, even as someone on the low end of deluluness.)

Anyway. I totally agree with the speculation that Joongi and JHB are likely a casual on-off thing. Some are jumping to UPCOMING NUPTIALS because LJG confirmed but... nah, fam. He confirmed because Dispatch pulled receipts. Trying to spin it any other way would flop. (Then again, who knows, I could be totally wrong and by this time next year they'll be hitched and I'll eat my words, god forbid.) 

I also just can't reconcile being truly serious about your partner and then going to the fanservice lengths that Joongi has gone. As far as MEC is concerned, I don't think LJG crossed any line with PMY. It was all scripted. The fanservice with IU, though, actually IS gratuitous. Like, here is what is required to do your job:

- Walking the red carpet, posing for the camera, accepting the couple award together, praising your costar's work

- Guesting at your costar's event, reenacting drama scenes

- Generally being supportive towards your costar

Here is what is NOT required to do your job:

- Numerous comments about the attractiveness of your costar ("the more I drink the more I notice Jieun's beauty" #never forget)

- Insistence on holding hands (which IU actually tried to avoid more than once)

- Attempts to propel emotional intimacy ("... so let's get back to what you think about me!")

The second list is not the behaviour of someone being 100% professional. And since we have no evidence yet that Joongi is a womanizing playboy manslut, the simplest explanation to all of this is that his relationship with JHB probably isn't that deep. Considering how long they've known each other, they've probably been friends with benefits. So honestly, I'm not really mad on either JHB or IU's behalf. (tbh, as a general rule I don't do protectiveness of celebrities who are rolling in all our $$$$$, lmao.)

In other news... not gonna lie, the IU/Kim Soohyun MV news kind of stings, since that's something we were wanting to see for her and LJG. I don't know if the MV will be a romantic storyline, but chemistry-wise IU/KSH can't beat IU/LJG. So yeah, I'll probably be watching that MV grumpily imagining LJG instead.  In any case, I'm pretty confident that this collab is happening to further bury IU/LJG gossip.

*waves hand* Hi @postnihilism, its been a while since I've last posted but I'd like to join the list of ppl still supportive of LJG & LJE. However, with this news, I think it's healthier for me to support them individually first. I'll be honest, I'm sad/ disappointed like some of the other shippers on the thread. I rarely ship people and this is the first big news that we've seen so far. However, I really appreciate how we've been so supportive of each other and open to hearing each other's thoughts. I hope that despite this disappointment we still stick together for the community we've made together, and initiated by our wonderful captain @akinahana89.

I'm still cautiously optimistic, as I feel there is something "odd" about the way the dating news was confirmed and explained. Like @postnihilism has said, even with this news, we need to consider what we've observed so far: that LJG has been more doing more than the usual professional/ friendly actions w/ LJE.... I guess it could be his flirty personality but even then it just feels very "off" to me.

True! In most of the bad comments I've read  people are not against their relationship, but they are angry at him because they feel played (he has been going on for years about how miserably single, lonely he is). So at least their relationship is not under attack (as far as I know)!

People need to stop and making assumption by saying that some fans are mad of LJG is because he and IU didnt happen in real life, we do get it, we are not so obsessed over it, we know that they have separate lives and can decide on their own we just wish for them to happen in real life, which it didnt, it hurt but its okey we are not gonna die over it, what pissing us off was he lied, lead and fool some fans, fine he needs to hide his relationship to protect it and its his private life we get it still he could have act a normal "pretending" single guy and not flirt and broadcast he is single, lonely and need love. everyone is hiding the fact that they are not single he is not the only still they didnt act like what he is doing and most recently in candy tv show, why do you think the TVN didnt air the last few episodes? because LJG is compromising himself in those episode maybe he said and do something that someone with a girlfriend should not be doing, come to think of it they have save him from being more criticized and TVN do not want to be accuse of being inconsiderate by airing his sweet moments with PMY, and STOP making excuse that show was all about being friendly and lending an ear just to talk its so obvious that its not the whole concept of the show, that is one part of the show and the other is making a couple with two people but in a subtle way.

STOP saying its reality show, HE IS ONLY ACTING, acting what character? its not a drama so where is the character he is acting?? so its not acting he is pretending since its himself and no character portraying so its not acting its pretending...i would believe its acting if he is acting a particular character but since he is not so...

STOP dragging that people are mad at him because the people we want for him did not end up with him its not all about that, the end and the major point is HE LIED.

I'm sorry but I didn't mean his non existant relationship with IU or PMY! I was talking about his real girlfriend! ( I said there are fortunately no malicious comments about his and JHB's relationship !) But to avoid future misunderstandings I will correct the mentioned entry. You are right by the way! He himself made this situation worse, there is no need to try to sugarcoat it (in all his interviews and tv appearences he made sure to say how lonely he is) And the problem with his MEC appearance is he wasn't playing a fictional character, like WS, he was playing himself, and that's why the exuse of "but he was just playing a character" does not apply here in my eyes!!

This is the scariest part of being a shipper. I’ve tried so hard not to ship any couple seriously because I have been ‘hurt’ so many times – Bikyo, Changmin (though nothing major happen to both of them) and now with the latest KiKyo and I am partly in this ship (not that active though) I tried not to be too active so in case anything like this happen I won’t be badly broken.

The thing with them – it’s so recent and we are still in the dreamland ..

The SAF was the one that sealed the deal for me.

 

I believe skinship during BTS sometime being force (though it may seem natural). I believe it’s being pre-plan though not scripted. I believed PD and the team would encourage the skin ship during BTS as this can help to boost the rating. So normally I would just take it with a pinch of salt.

 

Not every skinship on set equal to attraction…

However I was a bit drawn to them by their BTS – esp – JG … (I thought IU was with someone)… IU behaviour was a bit reserved and ‘controlled’. So the skinship/flirting was more from JG side. I have seen a lot of BTS and JG – skinship/flirty-ness was wayyyyyy above the ‘normal’ planned/scripted BTS (yeah I believe BTS was kinda planned for most drama).

The way he was jumping up and down after the kiss was too much. The birthday celebration where he talk about giving IU a birthday kiss (did I read it wrongly?)… he was so excited …

Anyway –  I don’t buy it (since IU was with someone or so I thought).

Then there’s the ‘lying on IU lap’ .. I was like OMIGAH .. JG look so smitten.. the way he look at her is no joke .. I cannot believe it was just acting or fanservice (I am talking about BTS not the drama – drama is understandable since they were acting and they were supposed to be VERY IN LOVE) ..

 

Anyway … I don’t like to ship ppl who are in a relationship… I always think of my situation… what if someone out there praying for my daughter to break up with her BF so that some else can be with him (just like we normally do to see our OTP together). So I just ignore the feeling I had.

It was JG that continue to behave in such a way that drawn me to this ship ….

Anyway I believe Kang Ha Neul was also into IU – the way he look at her tenderly melts me .. wahhaha… and there’s one part where Kang Ha Neul didn’t have any schedule but he remained on the set waiting for her… (I may read it wrongly do correct me if I am wrong) … Anyway since I like JG since the My girl day – so it’s JG .. whahaha…

Sometime in the BTS I see Kang Ha Neul looking at both IU and JG envying them thus it made me believe more that JG is flirting with her and KHN was like – look at them, I wish I was JG (me being delulu – ignore this if you are not the delulu type) ..

The way he looked at them almost similar to the way wang wook look at HS and WS … the deep longing feeling and like IU was of limit and he envy JG to be able to get close to IU (THIS IS PURE SPECULATION – I WARN YOU).

I keep away … I guarded my heart as not to ship ..

But the SAF break the last straw that I was grasping with all my might..

The way he look at her – is not NORMAL .. you don’t look at friend like that.. you don’t touch a friend like that …. Noooooooooooo way … I couldn’t be wrong … His hand kept reaching out for her … his eyes kept wandering off to her direction .. he was all flushing and blushing. Excited and giddy like a boy that finally get the ‘yes’ answer from his dream girl to go the prom with.

That was not someone in love/longterm relationship would do ..

And I believe what happen in SAF was unplanned because – SHR was over and done with – there’s no point carrying out the charade. At that time, I was 100% sure …  I pmed my sister and share the FMV of the SAF with my sister – she said – “I told you so’ …

Anyway I have already in the Kikyo ship and I can’t be in too many ship at one time .. so I can only put I leg in the other ship .. so here I am with just 1 leg in the ship (and still I am very much affected) ..

Then the Taiwan concert .. OMO – That’s it – I was waiting for the ‘breakup news’ to surface… (yeah I was taking chances with karma) …  I thought JG must be very sad that IU is taken …

Holyyyyyyyyy cow –  and then the breakup news – I came here – I posted my first comment – I was soooooooooo excited .. it was like they announce they are dating. I couldn’t be bothered anymore..

They were real – Called my sis and we were laughing away .. I TOLD YOU SO NOOO, I AM THE ONE THAT TOLD YOU  ..we kept saying that to each other … I can’t describe the feeling .. and when JG cancel the LA trip – I was like HOLY HORSES … and all the cow … MY GOD – he is such a gentleman …………. With that hand sign – the bird .. How can one not become delulu – You tell me? .. Was I wrong?? … tell me … How can I NOT BECOME delulu? …

That sign was no a peace sign or the tiny heart shape sign that every tom richard simmons and harry do .. nope .. this is special.. that bird hold a special meaning to all SHR lover … He can’t ‘play’ with that sign … he can’t …

That sign has a special meaning to us …

That the reason I am sooooooooooooooo angry right now … angry beyond word …

Yes you can hide/protect your GF but please think of the fans you lead on …. Yes we may be wrong to interpret it wrongly …. But the timing and the gesture … it’s ‘our’ gesture …

Don’t go around fooling us …

It’s too long – I shall continue in another post –  What I think about this shipping stuff

I do not think that MEC is totally from start to finish is scripted, its scripted yes, scripted in a sense that were given a situation and were put up in some particular scenes or themes but still the actor, decide how who will they react to what is given to them, in the end its up to them. the show is just helping them by giving them a situation its their reaction is half real there, half real because they would still hide something and not show all..

STOP dragging that people are mad at him because the people we want for him did not end up with him its not all about that, the end and the major point is HE LIED.

Super agree with u! I will happy for him if the statement is "just dating recently" not "almost 2 years" 

If you want to protect your real GF, u should behave and not create something lovey dovey to other girl. I am not blind for that interactions, i also have a social life and know how people to behave in their social life. 

Sorry for JG fans, i know u all will hate me.. but i cannot accept some statement that tell us as a childish shipper. 

[paldia]

@hyehoon thanks! (I don't know how to do that :S)

I was shocked when I first heard the news. I mean who can guess it will turn out like this? I think I will  be one of those who'll go AWOL and jump at any crumbs given at any moment (even tho the fact that I'm here just shows that I can never seem to go AWOL on this OTP :/) 

From IU Kiha and go eun-shin ha kyun. The pairing that went kaput along with heavy media exposure (if you know what I mean). The real test starts now for them I guess

Many underlined that JG once said he'll never expose his lovelife unless he's aim for marriage. But guys, this is the confirmation after Dispatch's undeniable proof, and this is after he denied it 3 times? More like forced if you ask me. Or after 3 denials, he finally feel sure? Dunno.

My first time joining a shipper forum. Witnessing a drowned ship for the first time. But future favors the brave. A drowned ship could be salvaged by this little thing called twist of fate.

@postnihilism count me in.

 

[Joseph Lim]

This will be my last post here as I can no longer support JoonU now  I have nothing against JG personally as I do not know him and JE is friendly with him. However he need to learn a little from JE on being honest with himself and to his fans before I can ship him together with JE again.

Some wisdom from JE before I leave.

Quote

IU wasn’t quite the image I expected of a young girl. With matured thoughts, she seemed like a precocious child who could almost become a director? IU hates acting cute or pretending to look pretty. She insisted on a natural feel, saying things like “Director, I don’t like doing such things” or “Such things give me goosebumps, I can’t do it” or “I can’t act cute”. She was carefree, unlike other celebrities who wear masks to hide their true selves. A very thoughtful friend. A celebrity with a different concept. Well I guess, in conclusion, that’s the reason why she has so many uncle fans… (laughs)

I don't know if being a shipper could made my mood in a mess. At least, I cried a lot when my national sport team lost at final match.

I still remember, some of us stargazers told that even people who doesn't notice mlshr, when they saw their interactions, will say that their chemistry after the drama ended is undeniable. It help me to convince that i'm not delulu.

After all, I still hope Joon Gi will give the statement directly from him. Although dispatch has released those photos, and the agency has admitted. I still hope, He at least give a clear statement.

I hope this storm will be vanished. After the heavy rain and storm in our thread, I hope there will be a rainbow. 

Thank you capt @akinahana89 for strengthen us

Hi everyone. I'm not as active as most of you but I surely enjoy all your posts and appreciate all your hardworking.

I know the chance of JoonU might work is slim. I can accept if either of them have found someone else. I just can't tolerate all the lies he's told. I actually thought he is honest, a real man in the show business.  He made me a fool. Yet he doesn't bother to make a statement to clear the air. 

Anyway, I'll be remain a silent lurker. 

Let's wait and see, usually with this kind of scandal you have to think twice before saying anything.. Sometimes it takes weeks and interview opportunity to clear what happened.

As someone said this is like a gun used by dispatch to trap him when he denied several times. We don't know what's the real story. But he did made some mistakes there so let's see what will happen next. 

Learned my lesson to ship lightly from now on. I'm happy for new MV of iu and cm of jg and mcw.. Just hope he will not ruined by this. This was bigtime scandal with his clean-almost image as he tried to avoid rumors the most in the past.

Sorry if I'm incoherent hahaha im typing in mobile 

[arshinwoo]

I'm currently re-watching JoonU fmvs,  the SAF, mlshr bts. Yeah i know, I'm such a masochist. As much you as you do,  i don't also believe it was purely fan service or a friendly gesture. Man, I also have male friends, and we don't do that (the close one) . Too much skinship, touching, complementing. As far as i know, guys only compliment girls that they like. JG can't blame us for getting disappointed because it was his fault. He showed actions, motives(?). Moves that often make a girl think that the guy likes her. That he has intentions. A sick technique used by players tbh. It's not a big deal who's dating who. They point is we got fooled. Poor us.  Gosh,  this is so frustrating.

It's hard to stay away from this thread. Thank you @Bambiina and @hyehoon for stating how I felt. When my daughter went for a few weeks to experience what it was like in high school in an Asian country, she was told by the local girls to never allow the guys to put their arm or hand on her shoulder. This was harassment in their culture unless mutual consent. Now that we know his status, JG crossed the line of continuously touching her shoulder. Her bare shoulder. (Unless it was mutual).  I have never seen drama couple award winners behave like he did. And even if some of them were real, they behaved so that they would not be scrutinized or suspected. The BTS of him wiping her nose then using that same finger to his lips was just too much in my eyes. And even though we can speculate that he may have been on and off with JHB, most do not  behave this way. Thank you for this forum that allows us to voice our opinions. We all have our own opinions and we may differ, but I enjoy hearing both sides. It makes me think. And yes, I favor IU, but do not dislike JG either. He has his reasons for his actions that we will never know, but there's consequences to those actions. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Good bye Stargazers. 

You say what's in my mind Right Now cuz right now cant find enough to prove myself wrong (DO HOPE SOME CAN PROVE ME WRONG T.T)..but for me I do hold the slimest hope for jg own response, his own,not from namoo. So I'll wait till that time if possible. it takes time n hope it won't take too long.
