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

[Guest]

the bts... Oh my broken heart! . look at the vibe! look how he kisses her and how she smiles! how the past week is still like an undigested poisonous food to me and these videos are not helping at all, more like rubbing salt in our wounds.

iu started to laugh when wang so was going on almost on her neck... haha..

wow this forgot my hurt for a moment.... their smiles and mischievousness... sometimes i still find myself lost in thought abt jg sudden news even while working and all you could do is sigh...

while iu! is killing the charts in every single without stage perf.... but i heard she'll promote on stage for this album after more than three years without it so im really excited seeing her perform again.on music shows... hmm she's planning to be viewed more often hmmm...

 

same here! I forced myself to go to library today for my studies even though I'm more adjusted to my room. I HAD to go, I thought if I didn't have network, I would stop thinking about it, but heck was I wrong! Actually it's not about the network at all, a silent place and your thoughts are enough,... more than enough.

im sorry i just dont believe that JG is in a serious relationship with JHB...

she also very flirty with costar and acts like a single woman

 

maybe that's just how they are. though if this is how they get along, I seriously wish they break up. I can't see a bright future in these kind of r-ships.

Have a great week and for Catholics, a blessed Holy Week!

   

WE CAN MAKE IT!

 

Let's do our daily chant

 

1. Another Perfect All-Kill (PAK) for IU's song and album.

2. JoonGi to eventually talk about his true feelings and thoughts about recent revelations.

3. For the TRUTH to be finally revealed.

4. Success for JoonGi's FM in Seoul on the 15th.

5. JoonGi's hair to be not parted in the middle.   (For this chant to be a success, his hairstyle on his next live appearance (first CM script reading?) shouldn't feature the curtain look. LOL)

6. Jieun to keep posting in her  and show the world that she is in a happy place right now.

7. People who love to manipulate others to live in a deserted and shark-infested island.   

8. JoonGi and Jieun to continue to prove that things are not always what they seem to be.

9. JoonGi and Jieun to always support each other, as good colleagues.

 10. PLENTY of love and kiss scenes for JoonGi in Korean adaptation of Criminal Minds, and amazing chemistry with his leading lady.

 

11. SHR cast to get together more often so JoonGi can continue to see Jieun become more beautiful right before his eyes.  

12. JoonGi to continue meeting Jieun in his dreams, for now.

 

 

and our ultimate wish,

for JoonGi and Jieun to eventually find their way back to each other's arms and make the BBJX curse/blessing come true!

Joongi left a message on his fan cafe. I'll let someone else post a link or translations but I'm bummed out. Today my ship is that Carnival cruise ship that lost power from an engine fire and the crew and passengers were stranded in the Gulf of Mexico. The toilet is backing up with raw sewage and I'm sitting in darkness.

Tomorrow will be a better day but today I am on the Poop Cruise.

13 hours ago I have commented about receiving statement from JG-shi soon...Tadam!! soon enough indeed. Only that we don't have to struggle with the interpretation...he stated it quite clearly *Crawling back to my dark cave*...Life is beauti(bitter)ful *crazy laugh with tears*

....I don't give up, i'm just whining T_T

well he cant say everything in his mind (esp actions with his co stars) right now but he addressed how sorry he was that it was revealed the way it is... or how he was careless...

at least he already spoken... i was fearing he was so down right now but then again i remember there's someone to cheer him up..

but i think next time i shouldnt like a celebrity too much haha (i might abstain from lurking for news and stay with iu for a while, until CM is out) i kinda get what is happening now, theories aside, ill just accept (but i do not have to like) these things..

Well judging from the comments his overall image and character has slumped in the eyes of the public. It will be hard to recover. They are not angry at him for having a relationship, they are actually disappointed in his character which I think is way worse than anger. I wish him luck and happiness, but please, refrain from being too flirty! Being friendly is not the same as being flirty! Take it down a notch! You are a great actor, and probably a good person, but you are not a Wang So!

Disappointed but not wholly surprised.

But even the outcome can't sour my memories of JoonU. I still adore them individually and together in whatever capacity that may be. I believe they're friends. The affection is real, if not what we wanted/expected.

If this is related to MEC, which I assume was the ultimate' concern' of the K-netz, it's a semi-scripted show with a 'romantic reunion' theme where 'romance' would buzz the ratings. Indeed it helped a lot with the ratings so far, his episodes with PMY got the highest ratings yet for that show in this season. MEC was indeed the biggest 'blunder' and the 'worst' decision in his career yet. His intention might have been good but it turned out really bad for him- and hurt him the most. Anyway, I do not wish to discuss about this anymore especially when the opinions here are also heavily biased and tend to be judgmental. I know some of you are really upset, I won't blame anybody for that. Joon Gi has apologized for his recklessness. It's enough. And oh, of course Wang So is non-existent in real life. He's Lee Joon Gi.

I fully agree with this. The affection is real. He treated her with adoration I haven't seen before. Well, I knew he found JHB his current official gf as 'charming' since back then when they worked together for 'Joseon Gunman' but it seemed like it took him a long way to sort his feelings out until he decided to be in a relationship. In between, at not the rightest time, apparently we had Lee Ji Eun. He adores her to the point of going extra miles with very close friendships with her. Those 'flirtatious' moves and the chemistry, I believe those had meanings. If not, their drama won't be memorable for us until we've been way too emotionally invested in them like this. Too bad it's not at the right timing. We started out with both of them seeing other people... one was in an openly public relationship that was outed after two years and the other one was just starting to go out secretly. We don't know for sure whether Ji Eun actually has more feelings for him either... this might also influence the situation we are having now. Why would JG wait in 'vain' for somebody who doesn't love him back instead of continuing with a person he has known longer and has a feeling for him? that's the simplest logic I can think of. I don't always hope my logic is correct, though.

To be honest, I don't know why JG- JHB's relationship this time seems like a bigger 'bomb' than JE- JKH's relationship back then for some- if not most- of you here in the ship. Maybe because we're women and we expect the man to initiate everything and this love-fool named Lee Joon Gi happened to do the things we thought was 'it'? We're going back to square 1, but haven't we overcome some of the obstacles already?

I am not wishing bad stuffs for JG's newly revealed relationship. As his fan, my heart might have ached more than some of you who aren't originally his fans here... having to see him going through this all, having to read that statement and having to get my expectation crushed... but I'm still holding on to my hopes that one day I can see Joon Gi with a girl who deserves his warm smiles, efforts and sweetness... the one who is not afraid to love him, understand the special bond he has with his fans and cherish him a lot. I'm still hoping that the girl would be the one I have pictured him to be with, but again, I ain't no God. If the BBJX miracle is meant to be, then no matter how long and winding the road will be, it will be eventually.

If you truly believe it, you can bear the heartaches at this moment.

I'll just quote a comment from a fellow Korean hajunse: It's not like he'll get married soon. nobody can predict his future anyway.

I felt a lump in my throat reading his message but at least he didn't mention anything about marriage lol... I know I'm being selfish but this time around, I don't think it's wise for him to have a big decision before he can gain the public trust again. So I'm happy with his 'public apology' as it has shown that he cares enough and he's a gentleman enough to do so... he's the Lee Joon Gi I've known all these years indeed.

I'm really sorry that I have to take my promise back. I am signing off from this ship at this moment. Not because I don't have my faith in JoonU anymore, but I need some time to be away from any judgmental opinions towards Joon Gi that I know I will inevitably see in this thread - even though this thread has his name on it. I can't absorb any more negative energy as I cannot afford to give a positive one to make it any more balance here for all of you either.

Thank you for being a nice place in which I could share a lot of fun times having delusional ideas. I wish everybody well . Let us all be happy and wish Joon Gi and Ji Eun a happy, peaceful life as well.

Bye

And oh, that is exactly what I meant!

[krysyuy]

@NoonaE Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. Honestly, it's a breath of fresh air in the midst of negativity. I understand why you have to sign off here (as I also came close for the same reasons), but know that you'll be missed. I hope to see you around again (if not here, then in JG's thread). Best of luck w/ your research!

[marimari00]

Now that I've had some time off to clear my head and with the timely release of JG's statement, I just wanted to say - I wish for his happiness and trust that his choice is ultimately what he feel is the best for him. Be happy and be yourself - people will love you regardless. To respect his decision I will not ship him openly with my main girl but I will stay here to keep tabs on both of their professional endeavours. I say this in respect to his current chosen one as well.

His interactions with JE makes a lot more sense now - it was sincere as sincere is and they were able to be so because they had nothing shameful or suspicious to hide. Perhaps, if time was kind and felicitous it could have been them standing up for their relationship right now but how many great love stories could have been had time, situation, and fate had aligned to put everything into place. For now, as the song goes "Let it be, let it be..." No matter how hard we try,  we cannot grow oranges from an apple tree.

[akinahana89]

Hello my lovely Stargazers,

I see that our ship took another hit from a wild canon today... There are a lot of thoughts running through my head right now, but the few that are startlingly clear at the forefront is this:

It's not over. Yes, let me repeat that for everyone.

IT IS NOT OVER.

Y'all can think I'm crazy, too delulu, obsessed, in denial, or what have you, but I don't believe all of this is going to simply end like this. I fully expect more of my crew to jump ship and swim back to shore. I half expect to be the only presence here on JoonU Stargazer Ship. But I wasn't kidding when I said I'm in this for the long haul. I'm in this until the end. I'm going down or going home with the ship. There is no in-between. Even with Joongi's letter to us, I am unwavering. My faith is still strong. And I believe in the power and love of JoonU.

Why?

Because I saw, with my own eyes, Joongi behaving in a way he has never done before in front of another woman. Happy in a way I've never seen him be. I did my research and I've plenty of Hajunse to back this up for me as true. I saw, with my own eyes, IU glowing, happy, comfortable, and confident in a way she has never been. In all the years I've been Uaena (since 2009), this is the first time I have ever seen her this way. This is the first time that IU has looked at a man the way she looks at Joongi, including K. There is something more here. This is also the first time she has ever initiated any form of skinship with a man (that hug from Taiwan concert, anyone?)

I am confident that those emotions and that happiness was completely genuine. It wasn't Joongi being a flirt. It wasn't Jieun being led on. It wasn't fan service or finding things that weren't really there.

Additionally...

I wasn't going to reveal this at first but... I did a tarot card reading on JoonU and JHB last week. The night of the dating confirmation. I am NOT a professional, but I have played the cards and practiced these skills whenever I could for the last decade. Ten years. So while I may not be completely accurate, I don't think I'm completely off the mark and shooting in the dark either.

The results of the reading I did was this:

Joongi is caught between two women. Between these two women is one he loved, on and off, from before and one he loves now. One has the ability to influence him easily and the other is a ray of light. Both of these women love him in return. His fate is unwritten and lies within his hands. He is faced with these two choices and the choice he makes is the fate he chooses for himself. A marriage with one woman will be a beautiful, happy union... but a marriage with another woman will be plain and unfulfilling.

Now, I do not know with certainty which description goes with which woman, but I have my own guesses. In any case, with that being said, do I believe Joongi chose JHB? I don't.

As I look at Joong's letter now and with each re-read that I do, I grow more and more certain that he didn't choose JHB. No, not really.

Take another look at his letter:

 

Spoiler

I'm joon-gi.
First, I am sorry to inform you later.
For fans who have trusted me for a long time... 
I always show good looks... 
but Sudden things was happened... 
fans are surprised and confused. so My heart is heavy.
I want to convey my frankness.
It took me a while to get to know my heart.
She is a bright and warm person and...understands me.
We were meeting carefully. 
I was worried about how to talk.
I wanted to inform you in a better time, in a good way. I'm sorry I did not.
im so sorry, and Thank you fans for me concern and support.
I feel responsible for what I showed through my recent program.
I apologize to the many people who sent me love.
In the future, I will try to be truthful and earnestly.
As much as you love me, I will show you a good drama and movie... i will effort.
do not sad because me...
I wish fans have a good dream and a happy day.
Thank you, thank you.

 

What is missing from his letter that is present in all the letters previous k-celebrities have written to their fans about their relationship or that one special person they love? Exactly that: love.

In his letter, the word "love" does not appear except when he mentions how his fans love him. There are no mentions of his feelings for her, only a very standard description of the type of person JHB is: "bright and warm and... understands me." (Why the hesitancy before 'understands me,' Joongi?) He did not mention how much she means to him or ask for our blessing. He didn't talk about marriage either.

This English translation of his letter does not mention his use of the word "friend" but the Chinese translation did. I researched the original Korean version of Joongi's letter and found that it was true. He called her a "friend." I don't recall any k-celeb calling their significant other a "friend" in their letters, unless to say that they have found a best friend in their loved one as well, which Joongi clearly did NOT say.

In this whole letter, she takes up a mere two sentence. Again, two standard sentences. He even said, "it took me a while to get to know my heart." When you love someone, are you ever unsure of it? When you truly love someone, could another person ever sway you and your feelings? This, to me, means that his feelings for JHB are not deep, despite the length of time they have known each other and have been dating.

I'm not diminishing their relationship or JHB in any way, I am just stating my thoughts and incorporating my own experience into it as well. I question where the strong statement of love is in his letter. His version of "to me, she is the best present" (Rain and Kim Tae Hee) or "she moved my soul in an instant" (Kang Gary and his non-celebrity wife) or even sticking up for JHB after all the bashing aimed at her, Kwon Sang Woo style (for Son Tae Young).

When IU talked about K after Dispatch revealed their relationship, she said, "I fell in love with him at first sight... hehe. He’s a boyfriend I’m grateful for and have a lot to learn from too. Our relationship is good, sometimes we fight, sometimes we get sad, we’re grateful for each other.. just like any average couple."

So, truthfully, this felt more like a cookie cutter letter to me. More of an apology for the shock of the unexpected than a confession of love as this letter should have done as well. Not to say that Joongi didn't write it with sincerity, but that there was a purpose in how generic it was.

When I add this letter into all of the crumbs and cake we had and take the tarot reading I did, it feels like he has been uncertain of JHB and more certain of IU. But before he could make his choice, Dispatch revealed the relationship and since this is the 4th time a rumor has surfaced for them and it is technically true that they are dating, it was confirmed. But I don't think he was ready for everything to be revealed and I don't think he wanted things to turn out this way.

I don't think less of him for getting caught between two women since love can be complicated, especially for someone who lacks in experience as he had said, and cheating is not something to even consider as a possibility. I just consider this another hurdle that JoonU must face. If they are fated to be, it will happen, no matter how many twists and turns they face. Anything worthwhile never comes easy. This certainly applies for JoonU, don't you think?

I know there will be skepticism and disbelief and questions and doubts about what I said, but that's okay. I choose to believe in this and you can choose not to. In the end, this is why I am unwavering and this is why I will continue onward, no matter if I am alone or with a crew.

If, in the end, Joongi does choose JHB, then I will be happy for him that he has found love and I will wish him happiness. There will be no ill will or ill thoughts from me and I know whoever ends up with Jieun in the future is one lucky man who will cherish and love her as much as she loves him, but...

This ship isn't sunk until a wedding bell sounds.

(P.S. @chi13lou, if we can add to the daily chant for Joongi to make the right choice for him, for Joongi to be given guidance on which road to officially take, and/or for Joongi to be at peace with whatever final decision he makes, that would be fantastical~ Komawo, chingu!)
