[OFFICIAL] Hyun Bin ❤️ Son Ye Jin (BinJin Couple)

[TotoroSY 12,690]

@MY15  Thanks for the guide on changing themes! I am using the Evolution mode and it's kinder on the eyes vs the Dark Mode. Hope the Light Mode comes back soon...

 

@SHpectator  We will surely go blind if Binjin don't announce soon LOL!

 

 

@Channel20 Jennyhouse_Jenny really likes to tease fans. I hope she is genuinely cheering for Binjin and not trolling us...

 

 

@ElectricHearts  That was a pretty interesting find on SYJ's AMTR The Classic shooting at Chung Ah University in Oct 2002. But the film only released in Nov 2004 - 2 years after that. HB is supposed to be in Uni in 2002, but I also noted he was supposed to film Shower that year, so wonder if he was still in Uni or stopped temporarily. Serendipity...

EDITED : Just realise it is filming for The Classic and not AMTR. Thanks @ElectricHearts for spotting the mistake.

 

Found these 2 really cute Binnie videos - one of him discussing with staff of showing his baby photos during a Japan fan meet in 2007, and the next video is of the actual fan meeting itself. In both cases, he was so super shy to see his baby photos revealed LOL!! He didn't even know his mom gave the photos to the staff.

I heard that Hyun Bin is already in Jordan for The Bargaining shooting. Stay safe!!! 

 

Anyway, a little something from our Jinnie during TN promotion days. Look closely at how her eyes soften and how her smile brightened when she saw him. 

 

The eyes can’t lie

HB as a little boy and him being overly shy about those baby pictures, absolutely adorable! I And as a man....my, I have no words! And i talk not only of his looks, but the totality, his character, his talent,etc...and what is so disarmingly charming is he does not seem to know how gorgeous he is! HB does not have any airs, he remains humble despite his success. SYJ is supremely lucky to have him. HB anf SYJ complement each other so well. Can you just imagine how their little ones will look like??  No pressure. They gotta do what they gotta do. So for now, here's  side by side photos of them as little ones. Surely, you've seen them before, but it never gets old!

For those who have hard time with the dark mode (like myself yesterday), try to switch to revolution evolution mode which should be a bit better though back reading still kills me.

OMGGGG , i wonder did he secretly visit her shooting site, standing behind those pillars, admiring her from far like a longtime fanboy (SO CLOSE YET SO FAR har). 

All I can say with having movies/tv shows having been filmed at my high school and university before, you are usually made aware something is filming. It is just a matter of if he happened to be around the area then when it was filmed or was curious/took a photo or who knows LOL! Regardless, he must know after watching the movie lol. Now I need to watch Classic again  I remember the school related scenes but apparently the movie also filmed at 2 other universities according to her schedule lol.

I wonder if Soompi will eventually make us pay to use better settings on the forum?  I hope not.

 

From 60 year old pair of eyes.

I read the chat box. The need to create the white default theme again (as they couldn't use it anymore after the recent upgrade). So we won't get it till another couple of weeks.

@TotoroSY oh no this is for Classic shooting at the university lol. So Classic came out in January 30 2003 (wow impressed they finished the movie so fast for a release date) He did his brief appearances in Bodyguard sometime that year. Nonstop was sometime later that year in 2003? I think for Shower he said he did this while in school? (maybe it worked out and he could film it during summer break or something) - I know he talked about this.. when did he talk about this again LOL! A Moment to Remember filmed earlier in 2004 (April) before the premiere he was at on Oct 25 hehee

 

 

Oh no LOL! If it was the theatre scene in Classic that was filmed at the university, I am going to die again. Since he worked in the theatre/lighting design at that university while he was studying theatre LOL!..

Thanks for spotting the mistake. Corrected my post. I think HB filmed his 1st movie Shower in 2002 and he took a sabbatical from his University for that. When the movie was cancelled later, he was pretty embarrassed to go back and face his course mates. Good thing he received new work quite fast after that in 2003 - I think it was Bodyguard, as supporting cast (the stalker LOL!). Then 2004 he has Spinkick, NonStop and finally Ireland before landing MNIKSS in 2005. HB actually had a pretty smooth journey during his debut and onwards to stardom. Same for SYJ, she had success pretty fast too at debut with Delicious Proposal (2001), Lover's Concerto (2002) and The Classic &  Summer Scent (2003). Both of them showed screen presence and youthful charisma right from the start. And now both of them have this elegant, mature charisma and sizzling on-screen presence. Amazing pair!!

Hahaha!! Revolution Mode sounds like a good idea!! I will join too!

 

I still can't get over how shy HB is, from school days to early stardom and even now at the top of his career. That's why YJ likes teasing him, but it is also with her that he is less shy and let his dorky side come out and meet the fans.

Yes I have also read somewhere (I think on tweeter) that his official fansite SPACE posted his schedule and he is in Jordan now. Hope for everyone to stay safe and may the filming go smoothly and quickly!

 

I always like how they smile at each other when they go on stage during TN promotion. They were such an open-book during that time, and everyone can see the special affection they have for each other. Their eyes going all soft and their smiles being extra sweet whenever their eyes met.... can never get tired of watching that.

Wow.. another..article on CLOY'S reception in Japan...

I still remember some naysayers in this forum saying that though CLOY is good but it can never achieve the status of other Hallyu hits and will be forgotten soon.. They even said CLOY'S popularity is nothing compared to some other hit dramas aired in the last 10 years.. Atleast they should've given CLOY some time before saying all those things..and now Lol!! here we have CLOY being directly compared to Winter Sonata...

 

Some  points from the article:

*The dramas that didn't air in Japan's terrestrial network never recieved such a craze..

 

* This phenomenon is happening when Korea and Japan relations have hit the worst phase in the last few years.

 

* Male viewers are drawn to it even if they are not fond of rom-com.

 

Read the full article here..It is quite amusing.

Binnie  FINGERS crashing landing on YJ shoulder since 2018...

 

 

Only Jinnie can make our shy Binnie SMILE SO WIDELY showing his teeths and crash landing his fingers on her shoulder marking his terrority.

Oh gosh, shy adult Binnie will be the death of me

 

Why so adorable, be still my heart 

 

No wonder Jinnie teases him so much, just imagine standing next to him and seeing him go all shy, those dimples making their cute appearance, I would want to tease him over and over again too 

 

(Also, if my husband ever asks, I was never on this forum, OK, you're all my grocery sisters, keep this comment to yourselves)

WOW!! Thanks for posting this!! I still recall that both of us were some of the CLOY fans who defended the impact of CLOY, and asked the naysayers not to judge CLOY so fast, and wait and see. We also argued about how cultural impact is not measured just by fashion and OST getting viral, but in the case of CLOY it was influencing social-political conversations which is even more important. And now our patience and also confidence towards CLOY has finally paid off!! I still recall when Winter Sonata was brought out as a comparison, and we were even humble enough to say that of course we cannot compare with 1st generation hallyu wave where there was also a first-time advantage. WELL, I am glad to be proven wrong!! So many japan media has compared CLOY's impact with Winter Sonata. I thot it will need terrestial TV airing for CLOY to achieve that same impact, and its almost impossible these days. But because the world has changed and due to the digital TV age, coupled with Covid19, all the factors work together for  the amazing CLOY  impact in Japan. 

 

There was also another article in CLOY drama thread that shows Filmarks rating for both overseas and domestic drama in the 1st half of 2020 in Japan. CLOY scored the HIGHEST for both overseas and domestic dramas satisfaction rating! So its both high viewership and high quality rating!!

 

Congrats to the CLOY team and of course to Binjin !! I am quite sure there are many invites for interviews and photo ops, even fan meets in Japan (and many other countries). But since there is no traveling right now, hope they can at least have some online interviews with media.....

 

======================================

 

I really love this tweet about YJ looking for a nice guy who makes her laugh, and then she found HB. A supposedly "no jam" sort of person but has become a comedian, just for YJ.

SYJ was not afraid of giving hugs to her male costars in public.

 

Active with Friends vs passive with close friend.

after many years, she found someone at her level (they spoke about similar experiences etc) and HB really does highlight one of her qualities that many other men she came across saw as a FLAW, to which he sees as her

I captured two lines only but these were also discussed by @ElectricHearts; @elizza and @TotoroSY.

 

Let me just add that in 2011 , there was an interview where SYJ mentioned that she did not want to date men having the same job as hers but she accepted that it is hard and may not be true anymore. My take is that like HB's interview also, they both want their love one to understand the demands of their work and passion but many will fail  here.  HB is more open and expresses it so well that really he is GENUINE! He said that many (maybe based on past experience) can seem to handle the irregular pattern but there are some  part that  they( again maybe based on his past)  cannot handle and he is just waiting for someone who is able to handle the uncertainty.  He implicated too that to be able to do this, she maybe in the same discipline.

SYJ on the otherhand mentioned in one on the spot interview where the reporter was so insistent that she finds a boyfriend and she said she tried hard but maybe they avoid her because she is famous.

 

The sweet part was that SYJ mentioned that while filming The Negotiation, they had to meet with Dir. Lee Jong Suk to discuss the different scenes and during these meetings she found out that she and HB had similar experiences in the past about their careers. She is very smart in constructing her words during interviews  because she is guarding her reputation . Do not call me on these statement because i have basis.  In so doing, she expresses the truth but very subtle and because she has learned her lessons from past experiences.  

 

What drew them to each other is first, a natural physical attaction. I believe they admired each other even as young celebrities. They watched each other's work and in so doing, you can observe the person physically.  I am pretty sure they read the news; celebrity feedbacks, internet so from SYJ, she was a fan and will always support and cheer for HB.

Second, HB  is a perfectionist in his acting. The reason that he was caught in SYJ's web is the unpredictable acting  displayed by SYJ in a critical scene in TN. Here as HB described it, you will see clearly how he is passionate also about acting. His vocabulary is soooo Romantic! I do not know if he realizes it. I went past back his interviews but did not see this way of expression from HB.  The so called "unexpectedness... " from SYJ was what made our HB fall in love.

 

He said, SYJ is grateful ; comfortable to be with  ; they have similar energy and passion preparing for a role  but what made him want to work with her again is the joyful energy and enthusiasm that SYJ has and her eyesmiles. 

SYJ expresses her desire to be with HB differently. Her girly and loving gazes and looks betray her . I have observed all videos with them again and again and try to catch those loving looks and your heart will flutter!

 

To conclude, the excitement in their relationship continues as HB discovers the wealth of good qualities his woman has.

In the Master of the House , was  a revelation for SYJ on keeping herself fit and attaining good stamina as most of her partners commented about her. Also, IF HB is organized and neat, also SYJ coming from the comment of the crew in Master of the House. I think, SYJ fell for HB not only because that guy showed her how to be loved but HB's handsomeness is "MANLY".

Funny, i was watching a video where he was telling the audience that he is indeed very MANLY!  

Why? A strong  woman needs a manly male then she gladly surrender .  HB can be classified as a risk taker whereas SYJ is guarded and cautious . They balance each other.

 

SYJ WANTS A KIND HEARTED MAN SHE IS COMFORTABLE WITH TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS WITH WIT  -  HB

 

HB WANTS A KINDHEARTED WOMAN WHO CAN COOK AND IS FUN TO BE WITH -  SYJ

 

They both understand their passions; they both swim and play golf; they can both Travel.

 

However, there is a CAVEAT to the above: HB IS VERY HANDSOME; GGW  AND IS VERY ATTRACTIVE .

Hmmmm.... SYJ said handsome men are BURDENSOME (comment on JWS)

 

Irony: SYJ  ROCKS THE WHOLE of KOREA ...... so Jinnie.... be fair.  Love HB . So many women are envious of you!

 

[bin-jin 2,480]

Binnie MOTA last scene was taken on 30 Dec morning and MOTA wrap up party was on that evening 30 Dec 2018.  

 

WOWW, THIS MAN sacrificed his tiredness and round up everything on Dec 30, 2018 just to fly over to LA to spend tiime with Jinnie and celebrated her birthday there.  He’s so romantic and in awe of her. She is a gem that worth his sacrifices and nothing can get in his way.

Yep new photos of HB released today from HL Science. Look at him being so playful like a little boy. And the hair, the hair! I rewatched that video posted earlier by @TotoroSY of Binnie being shy about his mom giving his baby pictures ro the staff. Look at him covering his face and lean down, he is actually blushing. I am sorry but I just find him so adorable at any age! Am sure down the line he is still gonna be attractive at 47, 57 and even 67!

 

@Riritobinjin, so maybe there's gonna be a Husband vs Hyun Bin Club, you think? My husband has about given up on me on this and its only fair as he is also so taken with SYJ. He thinks HB and SYJ together is just perfection. So, it appears like he may not join this club.

 

@eLizza isn't it interesting how the Japanese are finding that CLOY even appeals to male audiences? CLOY has really leveled up the status of kdramas. And if Jinnie pushes through with a Hollywood project, what a feather to her cap!

 

Yesterday was Jinnie appreciation day, today it's Binnie's turn.
