So I've done a collage on Canva. I found an older photo where she's rounder in the face and I think not wearing makeup. For me, the blurred image does look like Inna but @Almondcroissantand @pichicouple who know better says it's not. @AkiChan agrees with me. What are your thoughts?

 

And @Almondcroissant yes there are a few more vids from his interviews that I'd be posting on and also watching other vlives to comment on them. I get easily distracted so this whole mystery woman / voice has got me distracted. I will look at the other stuff soon. Plus the IU / Inna interview. We rarely get to hear from her and I have a feeling it might be revelatory 

Although that blurry sorry to say but for me clearly that’s not inna hehe

Watched IU's palette and it was great. I wish Inna could do more talk shows like this - although when it came to questions about herself she looked a bit nervous that IU will say something she shouldn't lol.

 

Kudos to IU as she managed to get both Switzerland and Gong Yoo. Oh and she also threw in a Yeon Bora (I know it's technically her name but for the brief times the show was mentioned it was on a first name basis and then one instance she added the Yeon). Awww Inna called GY "Oppa" versus the more formal "sshi". Suggests they're still close. Things I learned:

 

Inna isn't strict with her diet even though she has abs and is more health conscious than most. The translation said she eats more than three meals a day. Impressive given how fit she looks. It did look like she was going to correct IU for saying she doesn't work out much but thought better of it

 

She likes long calls versus texts. My video call idea is looking less crazy right about now hehehe

 

Inna doesn't take the initiative to ask other people to hang out. On the other hand, LDW mentioned on his talk show (the blind date segment) that he doesn't confess easily. For some reason, I have it in my head that Inna made the first move just as she took the initiative to practice her lines with him when they were first filming Goblin. She doesn't strike me like the type to play coy when she's sure about her feelings. Just a thought. Hmmm

 

She expects IU to write another song about her and the look she made and IU's response got me thinking it's a wedding song she had in mind. Massive delulu here

 

She sings like I do - all in the throat versus the belly - am guessing because of her credentials in voice work. She has a pleasant voice though

 

I wonder what happened to the drama she was meant to film at the end of last year

 

They also talked about similarities with Bora. Other than the fact it was relatively brief (given she was there to promote the drama). It felt like more of a chitchat between friends. I generally did not take the comment that she's as clueless as Bora when it comes to love at face value. She wasn't going to say anything to the contrary whether true or false. And IU's point that Inna is more likely to cry when in a relationship. I did not interpret that to mean she's suffered heartbreaks. Rather I think she feels too deeply and gets emotional - kind of like an empath. The poem she wrote about IU indicates this and how she spoke about IU taking care of her when she was filming for 7 to 8 months. So my take is she cries a lot because the people in her life show her so much love that she's often moved to tears. That's not to say there are no ups and downs - rather I believe she has more happy tears than sad one.s And probably the sad ones are work related

 

Looking back at LDW's IG that he started the purple trend (in March) and glad IU clarified what wearing purple meant in April (could have been filmed in either March or April since the videos were uploaded on 3rd April). See this is what I mean that gestures like this would move her and show how precious she is to the people around her

 

Generally I thought she looked happy and contented, and nervous obviously about her new show. I like seeing the fiesty side of her which came out now and again. And ofc she looked great in all white. I think it's been mentioned here that LDW wore white in his first TV appearance for TOTNT part two but I'm thinking he started the trend. In the photo he posted with a purple background in March, he was wearing a white suit. He started the purple and white trend, which Inna and IU copied for their chat show and Inna copied for her Bora presscon. Gestures people gestures

 

Speaking of clothes, the pink dress she wore for her new show Possessed Love, Lee Da Hae also wore it in June but she wore it first. What's that all about? I find it amusing but I have a warped sense of humour

It was clarified that it was IU who was doing a drama, not Inna. The problem with korean is they don't use pronouns so it can be difficult to deduce who they are referring to sometimes lol. It would be odd for Inna to have accepted another drama so soon after Bora as she tends to take a long break after each drama and will usually do variety before accepting another drama.

Yes totally agree! She is easily moved, she often tears up during variety programs too when there is some sob story going on.

That purple craze was really something isn't it. He even repeated the purple pullover which he wore for vlive and then in pinggyego. Talking about the purple pullover for vlive, hope you can watch it. There was a suspicious part when he mentioned TYH and his vlogs. He started fidgeting in his seat when he talked about it haha. I remember i posted it here but i'm too lazy to look for it lol. But if you have a chance to watch it, maybe you can catch other stuff as well.

 

I hope you can also watch Inna's hosting of the TVN anniversary (where she was wearing a red jumper). Would love your take on how she said she is Sunny and how much she loves Reaper. I practically fell off my chair when she said that so would love your take on that too. If you don't wish to watch the whole thing you can see the relevant parts on amazingyooinna's IG.

 

That pink dress is such a coincidence but Inna fans are ignoring it so as not to bring hate to Inna. Sadly and grossly unfair, but Inna gets her share of hate even though she is not on social media. It's good that we have this forum to spazz all we want but even so someone on Twitter picked up on your Vietnam comments and made some uncharitable comments. But let's ignore that and ship on!

@Almondcroissant I finally watched the chuseok vlive and I've recorded here my running commentary. If it's unstructured, it's because I wrote things down as they were happening. Thus it's my unfiltered views as I was watching and might contain spelling mistakes.

 

Also, my head and eyes are starting to feel the strain of my obsessiveness so I'm going be choosy and taking more breaks from now on. If there is any particular content you want me to watch and comment on, let me know

 

Spoiler

Dining out as a group of six

Knows the requirement for group gatherings of up to 6 people during Covid. So in my head I'm picturing a gathering with his parents, his sis and her husband and himself with a significant other. That makes 6 right? I've excluded his nephew because he may have been visiting his dad side of the family (just for the day because when they went out to eat because I know he said he argued with his nephew over the holidays!)

Said he drank a lot which reminded of the episode when Jung Rok and Jin Sim went drinking and she taps his glass with her finger since it was getting filled up quite a bit. I can imagine Inna policing his bad habits like this

Someone gave him spicy chicken on purpose

He knows a lot about singing techniques

IU commented on Palette that Inna's singing had improved

The peach memes section was funny as hell. And just after the 1.02 mark, he was looking rather pointed at the left of the screen (his left / our right) whereas before he seems to be talking to his staff either directly in front of him or on his right. The little eyebrow raise he does before his eyes drifted. I guess the left is where his heart is both literally and figuratively

It's not a stretch to imagine that someone who like stickers would also like cute memes. And it's funny how he mentioned the memes were apt because they're based on his usual gestures / expressions. It dawned on him at 1.00.44 mark and he throws his head back laughing as if he remembered something funny. And he kept looking to the left for most of this segment

Oh the first choice on his balance game is similar to the question asked on IU's palette ie taking care of 11 y.o. IU versus multiple adult IUs. The Chuseok episode said 5 y.o. LDW vs 5 nagging adult LDWs

He looked to the left again (1.13.52 mark) on the question about farting in front of his in law versus fainting. And we know how Inna feels about farts on general hahaha

IU also has the same segment for guessing Internet terms/ common slang. Lol did she discuss her show's concept with him before hand and he gave her some ideas? Hahaha

His reasoning skills are also similar to Inna's when it comes to interpreting the meaning behind the terms

At the 1.45.36 mark when he was reading out what his staff wrote. He said hungry and then laughed. Is that someone giving him a sign he needs to wrap things up so they can eat. The term should have been great great / really really and his staff who prepared the segment should know the slang but instead they wrote hungry. And he also does a quick glance to his left after laughing

He took notice of the time after that and got curious about the food on the table. He didn't notice any other time but exactly after his "staff" wrote they were really hungry

Then in a subtle way he opens the box with fries and passes it over at the 1.48.28 mark. He could have simply been curious, opened it up, had a look and left it where it was. But he hands it over. Clearly, the message that you know who was hungry was received and he was subtly trying to feed her

He mumbled something as he passed on the box of fries at the 1.48.45 mark

Then he rushes his staff to get it together for the next segment saying there was just the two of them (not 10 people) and they should get it together from 1.49.43 onwards. This confirms my suspicion about his last recording. You don't need a lot of people in the room

He sounded like their boss then as he was hurrying them to wrap things up - which was interesting because I'm more used to his jokey side with his staff but he scolded them here. He became really precious about his time, and less indulgent with their requests too. I suspect they had more things planned but thought the better of it since he was being so impatient to get it over and done with

Though he said two people were helping with the vlive, the claps earlier sounded like three lol

Again he left his seat to go off camera under the pretext of changing his hanbok. He could have changed at any time but it's like a switch flipped after the hungry comment. The person sitting by the camera gave a laugh snort at the 1.56.26 mark and they were still giggling at the 1.57.06

Then LDW came back and proceeded to eat his pizza as if nothing happened

I read several pages ago that Inna complimented a Ktown couple as being the "loveliest" she has met and the person she was speaking to wasn't convinced

In my head, if they're together, I think they'd be a really affectionate couple and wrapped up in their own bubble oblivious to the people around them. I'm just thinking about those spontaneous looking hugs on TYH. The giggling staff brings to mind someone who is used to their antics. Did he really need to change his hanbok because someone commented they didn't like it? He said the new ones were more comfortable yet he spent almost the whole two hours in the first hanbok. No wonder the staff giggled - it was a lame excuse! In my mind, he simply wanted to be near the person who was there with him, whoever they were

Lol it occurred to me now that the food is pizza and chicken - pichi hahahaha

There was no I love you, sincerely this time - made me think the last time was as random as he thought it was

 

@Almondcroissant care to PM me those comments from Twitter. Bad comments don't faze me. Rather it tickles me that people would invest the time and effort on something they hate. Inna is clearly living rent free in their heads and they don't even realise it. Like why come to a shipper forum at all if you hate the ship?

 

And thanks for the recommendations. I will watch the purple pullover vlive and the TVN special next and call it a week. This has been fun

You are nothing if not thorough in your research! I can’t imagine the amount of time and concentration you spend picking out every nuance! I remember when the vlive aired we had great fun spazzing over the apeach memes and farting bit. Back then I thought his staff were teasing him by choosing apeach memes and the farting question. But now you’ve made me rethink and there’s a high possibility she was sitting right there in front of him, to his left. Or at the very least she had given input on the games to play and questions to ask.
 

I noticed when he was addressing his staff he would look straight in front to address them. But every so often he would look to his left and communicate silently with the person there. There were a number of pointed looks in that direction. He did the same in the previous vlive where he re-enacted the TYH hot dog scene. Me thinks Inna sits in on his vlives and always sits to his left. I agree a vlive only needs 1, at most 2 staff to set up. Most of the work is done beforehand anyway eg preparing materials and the iPad with the memes etc. I agree the part where he opened the fries and passed it to his left was very suspicious. He couldn’t offer the pizza as he needed to eat it and talk about it as he was the Gopizza ambassador then. 
 

Indeed I 100% agree they are very affectionate and loving to each other and totally wrapped up in each other to the exclusion of other people. Remember the reports during TYH filming that they would leave the set together and wait for each other to finish their scenes? And how Inna refused to let him leave even though the director said he could leave first? This reinforces what you have found - I think they do try to spend as much time together as possible and try to sneak in opportunities to be together. And Wookie himself said so during the TYH interview, that he and Inna spend a lot of private time together. I mean, it came straight from his own mouth, lol. There is no reason to believe it would change, barring work and schedules.

@Almondcroissant I'll respond properly later but thanks for indulging me. It was easier than the first time because I was already familiar with some of his visual cues from the other vlive I watched. So it took roughly 3 hrs because I kept pausing and rewinding...

 

I also spotted this gem. At the 1.00.06 mark when he was doing kissy face and hand heart shape, the heart was facing his left while the apeach emoticon did it pointing to the right. For the others he mirrored the emoticons. The 1st emoticon was doing the wavy arms to the left which he copied, and the second did the heart on the right but he chose left. Yes I know he's right-handed and will lead with his dominant hand, but the movements could be done any which way he chose since it required two arms. Better yet he could have done the heart in the centre for his fans benefit. Anyway it's another delulu from me

 

And think of this as me trying to make up for lost time plus all the time I'll be away starting from next week. I need to purge it out of my system otherwise it will linger and spoil my social media fast

You guys are too much! I’m traveling with friends right now and I’m being so rude reading all your posts! I have to find a half hour to myself when I can read all this and really pay attention to what I am reading.

 

Thank you for all your insightfulness! Especially @YouwinJH and @Almondcroissant (as always). So much fun reading all your posts!

Finished the purple pullover vlive and it was more subdued than usual but I suspect it's because the games were less interesting this time. He also was wrapped up in promoting his latest works, which makes sense.

 

Not a lot of shipping moments but it will become clearer perhaps why when you read my running commentary. Do excuse the spelling mistakes

 

Spoiler

He got a meditation / relaxation themed gift box including a yoga CD which got him laughing. Lol isn't Inna big on yoga?
He also spoke about his physical aches and pain and indirectly acknowledges that the gifts are thoughtful
At 16.06 mark when he asked what the massage thing was, he initially glanced straight ahead at his staff and then quick glance to the left
Lol looked like his thoughts strayed to other places while he was handling the bamboo stick thing
When he said it was too embarrassing to dance on command, I remember when Inna asked him to do the TT dance and he obliged and when he was randomly dancing during the bts of the TYH hiking scene. So he can dance on command - depends on who's asking
LDW I'm not going to let you off - I like the title of this segment
I love how much of a deep thinker he is. I've been lucky in this regards with the actors I like. I guess it's true that like recognises like
He obviously thinks deeply about how to create the right look and feel for his characters
I also like how intelligent he is
Gosh his work schedule sounds gruelling but at least he's doing something he loves
This time around his staff appear to be the left and centre indicating two people - would have been tricky to decipher if I wasn't thorough (crazy!). But since his staff are likely to be sitting closer to hand him stuff I have been trying to differentiate when he's looking far away and nearer on the left
For instance, at the 44.29 mark after doing all the idol poses he looks to the far left. He also looks to the far left when he was asking "why are you all so soulless?" at 44.34 and he keeps looking afar off with a hint of a smile during the rather tepid clapping that followed
And then the absolute gem - still looking far off - he shakes his head and said "Somehow today the cheers aren't great. Maybe we're in trouble". Say what? Excuse me Sir!
It occurred to me that when he was doing the dance in the TYH bts, Inna was clapping for him then - it has some type of significance (in my head). Interesting 
I also recall Inna on that show speaking to the older couple about their fights and turning away from the person (like ignoring them / the silent treatment when you're mad at them). Putting two and two together, well you can draw to your own conclusions about why I find this portion of the vlive very entertaining
And then his pause at 55 mark and shift in his gaze at 55.22 to further away on the left when the word associated with TYH came up
Lol what's with the folded arms? - any experts in body language? That's a defensive stance imo
And he asked someone on the left to remind him of the name "we" used for the character. And the person mumbled and he got a kind of glint in his eyes when asking them to speak up (55.57 mark). Then the person in the centre came to rescue 
Then all his fidgeting is rather cute and how he looked down when he mentioned that filming at that time was quite fun
Oh we get a reference to his hairstylist again. She filmed him lots and there were tons of unreleased footage - again looking to the far left when saying this at the 57.27 mark. That reminds me of the vid I posted this morning. Inna going off and grabbing a phone camera and filming him while he was writing at her desk. I don't think she was taking a photo. So does that mean he did some type of vlog while he was working on TYH? Where can I watch this?
At the 1.21.48 mark he's speaking about how he likes to take care of his juniors and being attentive to their needs on set. He says that this is his approach during both B&C and it's interesting he also lumped it together with ToTNT. He's worked with many younger people and acting juniors but in my shipper mind he singled out the latter because he doesn't want people to misconstrue his actions as anything deeper than being a good leader and team player. And it's obvious with his interactions with his staff who I'm assuming are mostly younger, that in spite of his complaining and grumpiness, he's actually a mood maker. But I can also see why he said he is similar to Jung Rok - being personable / social is probably something he'd had to work on and may not have come to him naturally. He has such Sheldonesque vibes when in his TYH and I think he plays socially awkward characters really well
At the 1.45 mark, quick glance to the left as he thinks about wrapping things up

 

Tomorrow is a last day for a while. My body needs the break to be honest. I want to watch the TvN special but don't have a link. Could someone please share?

 

And to address the elephants in the room. Those who think their opinion is worth a grain of salt. It isn't. I eat your kind for breakfast!

 

Yes I'm speaking to you nonshipping lurkers. I know I live in a glass house and should not throw stones. Yet I did not put words in his mouth, I'm simply interpreting them. If you disagree, it's your perogative. Your passive aggressiveness has no effect on me or my ship. Good day!

 

Edit: found it! Amazingyooinna account is truly a gem

Hi, thanks and welcome to @YouwinJH for her help!

 

"The sus girl case"  :ph34r:

This happened short time after Yin's show and I remember we also meant that the sus girl with 'short hair'(bts) was Yoo InNa. It's maybe just other ex. of their "not so secret" lol.. way to be together :wub:  :)

Me too, I love how intelligent and deep thinking he is, he’s not just all brawn. He’s also a very deliberate person, so I think a lot of the hints he gives are pretty deliberate eg when he alludes to peaches and even posting a pic of the Han River with Inna’s apartment in view on the IG of his character in single in Seoul.

I’m starting to wonder if this is another Pichi code word given the snarky snorting in the Vietnam vlog when hairstylist came up. Maybe Inna is some kind of closet hair stylist. I recall how she was giving IU tips about what to do with her hair in the backstage video at her concert just this year.

His body language is actually quite transparent; I love how he squirms when something TYH or Pichi/Inna related comes up; he definitely feels self conscious/shy about it lol

You can find his TYH vlog here, it’s part vlog and part bts uploaded by kkbyss; I’m sorry if watching it means taking you away from your self imposed social media fast lol. In any case it was a pleasure to have you on this forum; you’re a great and scarily observant detective and picked up on so many things that we missed out. It has been an absolute hoot reading your take on things and you’re very spot on! I’m just happy that Pichi and Inna/Wookie as individuals have found another fan. They deserve all the love they can get. I hope you will come visit us again when your fast is over!

I've never had a girl crush (celeb) before and I can say Inna is my first. She was such a delight on her section of the TvN anniversary - and glad to see I read her correctly as an empath. Funny she said six charms even tho she said initially she had no charms and they asked her for three. Oh and she included passionate - I expect nothing less from the partner of a Scorpio male (or maybe I'm projecting my own tastes hehe).

 

Being a good listener is a plus because LDW is quite the talkative (I like this about him tho) and as a I said might get too much into his feels (and overanalyse) because he's such a deep thinker. And I can understand why he said he needs someone on the same wavelength. Dealing with someone like this (I am pretty similar) can be draining so he defo needs someone who is mentally strong, and because we can be rather draining, also someone who has the capacity to recharge themselves by having interests. Someone posted the lyrics to a song he recently shared with fans and the words are quite apt. I'm sure he's very grateful to have someone in his life who can handle his quirks

 

And what she said about identifying with Sunny and going through those experiences - getting to know the Grim Reaper, falling in love. This is really what happened with them I feel. Yes they'd had encounters before but she got to know LDW really well through Goblin and yes I think she fell for him then even tho they didn't start dating until later I suspect (again because I think tho LDW was attracted he has said that he doesn't confess easily until he knows a person's heart)

 

It's interesting she chose the confession scene in TYH and actually remembered her lines verbatim. I said before I suspect she confessed first to LDW. She strikes me as the type who doesn't fall in love easily but once she knows she will go all in. I know nothing of her previous relationship but my read on her is that she was never certain about her feelings and probably fell into a relationship because he confessed so publicly. She even mentioned how her TYH character's confession was raw and authentic / unpretentious. A public confession is as pretentious as you can get - so yes her ex was a twat imo

 

Oh she's a very smart woman and has emotional intelligence to boot (she did really well during the counselling session and her perspective on love / relationship is spot on - it's something you have to keep working at and involves compromises but you shouldn't change who you are fundamentally. And when you don't feel it, leave it.). Love love love. There's no reason why she's not off the market. She's taken and no one can convince me otherwise

 

On to my reflections, what a whirlwind month it has been since I watched TYH. I went in with zero expectations and neither was I expecting the main couple to draw me in like this. I gained a new fave kdrama actress and LDW has joined the list of very few kdrama actors I love. I love his personality the most and ofc his dedication to his craft.

 

I'm taking a break from social media but will keep rooting for both of them (individually and as a twosome) during my time away. I hope I will return to some great news but even if the good news concerns them and someone else, I'd still be happy because I want them to be happy either apart but hopefully together

 

And you guys have been the absolute best. I've been lucky to be part of fandoms where the people are some of the most intelligent and insightful. People might take a disparaging view of shippers but I think it's just another way of being a fan and showing you care about an actor / actress etc. We like to think the people we like are fulfilled in both their personal and professional lives. They have love and are well taken care of by the people nearest and dearest to them. Is that a bad thing to imagine?

 

So long guys but not goodbye. See you soon!

I'm back! Lol I just can't keep away it seems...in all honesty this is only because I'd promised @Almondcroissant I'd say something about the Salon Drip show. Plus it's still Sunday where I live.

 

So here goes...

 

On Salon Drip, he said that he would floss his partner's and daughter's teeth. I hope he gets to be a girl dad in the future. He will be such a good dad.

 

When he was asked and he said he loved receiving compliments about his looks, and I think he especially likes hearing it from his partner, which is why that Turkids guy picked up on it and called him handsome - he was indirectly saying it because he's probably witnessed Inna complimenting LDY and vice versa. Ofc I also think she was there in person at the recording. Time is precious to them so they're likely to be joined at the hip when their schedules permit

 

And I have to say I defo think he became more attractive after TYH. His skin looked better and he just had a sexiness about him, which I think fans mistook as chemistry in ToTNT because he was serving a really sexy and seductive look there. It's ridiculous how attractive I find him (I'm not interested in him in that way mind you) because I never think of actors I like in this way. It's the combination of his intelligence, goofiness and "devil may care" attitude as @Almondcroissant rightly call it. Inna is one lucky lady and so is he

 

And his complex over the height thing. I can only compare it to this other actor I liked ages ago who was also Scorpio - he often talked about how he was very possessive of his wife and didn't want any potential suitors near her. Luckily they were each other's first relationship. To me LDW wants to be the best partner for Inna in every criteria. Sadly he can't change his height but I can see why he would obsess over it. He did mention he's changed somewhat in his clinginess etc during Turkids. But I don't think he'll ever get over the height thing 😅. When he said he isn't the jealous type, JDY gave him a funny look 14.04 mark. I think they're close enough for her to know about his true relationship status and he was rather blunt during the blind date about breaking up with his girlfriend if she was OK with him taking an overnight trip with his ex. He'd not be OK if she did it with her ex and therefore wouldn't want his partner to be so open-minded. Possessiveness is not a streak one can easily break out of. Remember how grumpy he looked during the Goblin press con when GY made Inna laughed? Oh he's possessive alright

 

Regarding making his bed and doing other chores because there's no else to do it. I expect as much because I don't think they're living together (when the show was filmed). They can still stay at each other's place and not live together

 

The question about his wife being allergic to his bedmaking techniques and his response was funny. First he looked down and sighed and then he looked to the side at someone at the 18.30 mark. Sounds like his girlfriend must have said something about it before - to the host even and his response strongly indicates he felt cornered (but not in a bad way). I even suspect Inna was around and that's why he glanced in that direction because he knows she's probably had a girly chitchat with the host about it.

 

I am assuming the recording was done by a small team so she could have been around especially with his shoulder injury. Just a thought. Someone previously stated he has a tendency to laugh as if he's remembering something funny. And he did laugh out loud when JDY was talking about mixing up the laundry like he remembered something quite similar that happened to him and equally he recognised that Inna had probably retold the story - in my head I think it was his mistake rather than hers and he was scolded tor it). In general, I liked that the host upgraded from gf to wife for these types of questions which I believe is based on real life examples. So it begs the question, are they already married?

 

His thoughts on marriage and dating are still aligned with what I suspected initially - they don't live together. And his way of answering tells me it's not that he doesn't want to but he wants to be able to do it freely and not in secret. His loneliness stems from that more so than not being in a relationship - there is a difference between a secret relationship and an open (free) one. There is less anxiety. You don't have to keep denying your partner. You can spend as much time as you want, when you want and how you want, without worrying about being spotted. He can't be with her as freely as he wants to unlike his friends who are in a relationship. That is the reason for his loneliness. There are single people who are not lonely and people in a relationship or with tons of friends who can feel lonely. Loneliness is not synonymous with being single. He's clever enough to know the difference

 

After complaining that all his imaginary gfs were crazy, the host commented that he's very happy now, and she created the crazy gf characters simply for juxtaposition. This is also aligned with my thinking that this man is taken and happy

 

Until next time folks! And I mean it this time 🤣

Interesting that Pichi couple have been in the news lately, starting from the Korean news article a few days ago about the next Binjin couple that will go from reel to real. 
 

And now there is this YouTube video. It looks and sounds dubious but still it’s interesting to see renewed interest in Pichi all of a sudden. It could be a very good sign!

I'm back but @Almondcroissantknows that I never went away really. I don't have any self control. Help me 🤣

 

I'll take the vid with a grain of salt although it does align with my theory about a possible winter wedding. Mind you I did not make that video. I have no connection to that video (for the lurkers out there). It did surprise, delight and angered me in equal parts.

 

I suspect the article has more basis in reality though especially because of the connection with Binjin. The two candidates I have in mind are the Gong Yoo pair and our very own Pichi. For both of these couples, it mentioned dating rumours which is something they have in common with Binjin. It's just too suspicious and random and I believe there is no smoke without fire

 

As I was saying to @Almondcroissant, there has been no buzz about them in the media since forever because their last project was in 2019. Apart from our speculations, there has been no indication anywhere that the two are connected. So why now? Especially with other more buzzworthy couples around. Looks like something is imminent for either one or both of them. I suspect a leak from somewhere and maybe his camp got wind of it and spun the story to what we got in the article. So it plants a seed without giving much away. Pretty clever.

 

And if this gains traction in SK they might be forced to either confirm or deny. From past experience, like Kim Namgil and Jang Nara rumour, these are squashed very early if there is no truth in them. As KNG said it really more damaging for the actress. For now, there is only one article that gave a tenuous hint but no mention of upcoming marriage. Let's see how it progresses. Sooner or later we'll get closure. Ofc I don't want them to be forced to announce something that they're trying to keep under wraps especially if some third party has leaked the info. But again there has been no marriage rumour in SK just some random video on the internet with no credibility. It might soon disappear into oblivion

 

EDIT: the age of the couples also stood out. Most them are in their late 30s and early 40s. You'd expect younger, more buzzworthy couples. Plus for most of the blurbs they simply listed their filmography. I think Pichi got a quote in there and maybe the blurb about Jang Nara and Son Ho Jun. Ofc JNR is married so that ship has sunk before it even started

 

EDIT EDIT: I may have misjudged the article or I'm reading too much into it, which doesn't surprise me either. Apart from showcasing similar aged couples, Binjin also got married. That's a strong enough hint for possible marriage news. They could have simply chosen a couple who met on set and dated and probably separated by now. And the timing of the Binjin romance sort of aligns with Pichi. Granted they worked together in 2018 (maybe filming since 2017) but they only started going out after their second casting in 2019 if I'm not mistaken. Which other couple had a show around the same time? And also had another show around 2017? Wishful thinking I know but I can't help how my brain works. Again I realise this might all just be a random coincidence and it might disappear into the abyss

 

EDIT EDIT EDIT: worse case scenario. Someone is trolling us 😂

I have always said that in every rag story, there is always a glimmer of truth. This video definitely gives me hope and I, too, have noticed some chatter about them on IG which made me wonder—why now after so long?

 

Since I WAS a BinJin shipper, and followed that couple very strongly—I feel that I can comment that they definitely started dating right after they filmed the movie together and they took on CLOY so that they could date openly while filming.  Their press release later that they broke up briefly after filming to see if they really were compatible was total BS. There’s lots of evidence from very observant fans to show they were always together. When THEY were ready, I feel like their agencies allowed Dispatch to “break” the story of their dating.

 

So—who knows if now, if the wedding is really happening this year, whether or not this “leak” is really a leak or just a way to “rip off the bandaid” and deal with fans reactions. With BinJin, when the rumors first started about their relationship (before CLOY) there was so much hate from HB’s fans against SYJ, they had no choice but to deny, deny, deny—for her safety.

 

I do feel many parallels with our Pichi couple and BinJin. LDW also has a lot of very possessive and crazy fans. I think he hadn’t, they would have tied the knot a long time ago. But they are getting older—his comment at his fan meeting about getting married someday was a total hint to his fans.

 

And before the BinJin story broke in SK, they did a joint commercial in the Philippines. So I’m thinking that country has people in the “know,” if you know what I mean.

 

Did anyone else see the WookDong IG post with his “friends” and the peach farm scenes? I swear the very first post (on his story) was a pic of the lion and a hedgehog. And we all know that in TYH YIN said he was like a hedgehog. I felt that was a total hint. (But maybe it wasn’t a hedgehog— which is why I’m asking if anyone else saw it—for validation.)

 

Happy days are coming, I truly feel it!

Wow I didn't know that SYJ got so much hate because of the early dating rumours. Yikes these sasaeng fans are scary. I can see why Pichi steered clear of dating rumours all this while. With marriage news, if and when it comes, I suppose the fans will have no choice but to get over it. I would hope

 

Ooh interesting observation about the IG story. I didn't come across it I'm afraid because I've mostly been on X / Twitter. And please do share any links to the IG chatter you picked up on. One of his fans also picked up on the fact that the cafe is located close to where they filmed one of the TYH scenes. I mean the man has quite a body of work and you're telling me him and his team couldn't find any other place to host the cafe but there. OK then. The man has planted so many seeds with that lion plushie

 

ExhibIt A

 

 

Exhibit B

 

Exhibit C

 

 

Also interesting re the Philippines and them being in the know. I can imagine K celebs may travel over there to date. Not sure if they'd get much privacy though but they are probs less recognisable out there than in SK

 

That said, I'm not counting my chickens yet. Only cautiously optimistic

Hi @AkiChan, I think I found it but it looks like a frog rather than a hedgehog. But I also remember the bts of that classroom scene, didn't Inna say he looked like a toad?

Lol I also came across this clip of IU gushing over LDW's looks:
