Popular Post Baylack 1,382 Posted July 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2020 Lovelyz previously cited another excerpt from the following interview: https://www.hancinema.net/son-ye-jin-says-relieved-lee-min-ho-not-young-looking-1--22725-amp.html I read the full interview and Lee Min-ho's following response regarding his preconceived impression of SYJ stuck out for me: "Q: How did you feel when you first saw each other? Lee: A lot of people told me that Son Ye-jin was very impudent so I was worried, but when I met her, I found her very honest and down-to-earth. I liked her because she is the type of person who wants people to talk to her in a straightforward manner. She has a great personality so I hope other people wouldn't misunderstand her. (laugh)Son: Min-ho was cast first in the drama and I thought a guy like Lee Min-ho would be attractive playing such a role. In general, male actors like to play rough, strong characters and do dramas with lots of action but I think Min-ho is very clever in choosing his work. " It reminded me of a similar preconceived view that HB expressed about SYJ and his eventual assessment of SYJ. Fortunately, both men pushed aside their preconceived ideas about SYJ and were able to see the true SYJ shine through. But, it should remind us all of the weight that our words carry and our actions can have on others. Some people are not so diligent to brush off others' assessments and make their own. In HB's case, in particular, it's my belief if he hadn't done so, he would have missed (what appears to be) the love of his life. Hopefully, this example will help us all to think before we speak, act, and/or paint others with a broad brush. 15 2 12 Link to post Share on other sites
OneDayInJune 1,427 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Can you take me back to their TN era? Gosh I really miss them And these past days that no news or sightings about them doesn't help at all. @Baylack I'm so sad that some people misunderstood YJ unnie's personality, but I'm glad LMH and HB saw her true personality. Well, that was 2010, so I hope this time she won't be misjudged by her soon to be co-workers. 6 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

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... I want to express my experience here. I have not watched any K-drama before CLOY and i am basically into Hollywood movies. I watched CLOY when it premiered in NETFLIX last February because my circle were into it and i could not cope. Everytime we met, they discussed the events; how good looking were the 4 leads and the fun of watching the NK Ajummas and the 4 NK soldiers. Everytime, they would show HB's picture and how he made it into the display screen of their cellphones. They are all married and have distinguished careers. CLOY even penetrated the Congress of my country. ( i have close kins there). After the 4th episode of CLOY, i got interested in the leads. While watching CLOY in the evening, i would research on the persons and past works of HB and SYJ. It just happened but if you do this simultaneously, you will experience the story of RJH and YSR equals HB and SYJ. It was like the love story of HB/SYJ unfolding before my eyes and heart. Then because of my insatiable reading, i came across the pre-CLOY negative comments. I was taken aback by the negative comments and ridicule of the story writer; why the leads are A-listers who were caught in a dating rumour;. NK vs SK subject was a taboo in S. Korea... that it was too expensive to shoot ... etc. AND I STOPPED READING. Instead, i continued to watch CLOY and forecasted it to succeed. WHY?? How can it capture the hearts of so many educated people in my country including me when i am not into rom-com but Technology. Normally we talk of the new features of phones coming out- foldable phones or AI technology. What happened? Even at Starbucks, you can hear people talked about CLOY first before the real subject matter of discussion. Ask yourself as i have read some of us here, .... to me it was like a magic charm have swept through me and i am still analyzing why i am in a shippers forum ! I can understand therefore why CLOY won the hearts of many people around the world! One author from Paris commented that although the story was very simple, it uplifted her from depression and recommends CLOY to people who are feeling down. Remember ..... CLOY is the story of BinJin! If people will go deeper beyond the GREAT chemistry of the OTP, then they will experience the MAGIC! 10 27 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Peony 4,099 Posted July 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2020 Please bear with me as i have read in a tweet describing HB as manly but soft-hearted and cannot hide his feelings while SYJ is described as a strong woman who makes decisions with her heart and mind and they balance each other. Sometimes when i come across such statements, i take it that it seems to make HB weak and SYJ strong so much like + and - equals neutral. My analysis and personal judgement is that HB AND SYJ are both having STRONG GOOD CHARACTERS. Thus, they click . They complement each other. They strengthen each other. Their PERSONALITIES DIFFER as HB has a QUIET one (as he says so) while SYJ has a SUNNY and ENGAGING personality. Often , strong personalities refer to stubborness and intimidating . SYJ can be intimidating to most men not because of how she behaves but because of her attainment and success. She is also thorough and meticulous but so is HB. You see them review their acts together keenly because they share the same passion - ACTING. HB is known for being soft spoken but his words are direct and honest. He said that he finds SYJ grateful and comfortable to be with. She speaks her mind but not obtrusive. HB is comfortable with SYJ. In the Three K astrology corner, it was explained that they are both leaders but because they are also both grounded, they will come as one. My leadership training reminds me of SHARED LEADERSHIP. So, HB and SYJ .... They are A-LISTERS , THEY COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER AND TAKE DECISIONS. No one less than the other. 28 14 5 5 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post September 22@binjin 951 Posted July 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2020 Ahhh binjin family the drought has not even started and I am already thirsty. Remember Binnie's Hong Kong interview, camera , Europe, romantic? Well a male friend of mine , profession-something to do with computers or numbers Loves photography like his non existent wife. Last year he chose to go Slovenia alone with his camera instead of joining us all on Croatia trip so when the HK interview clip was discussed here , I thought maybe it could happen , binnie might have went alone with his camera and it could be romantic for him. Who knows what goes on in all men's head. Yesterday Same Friend on phone- Whining about how he can't go on a trip and take pictures this year . Me- Hey , think hard and tell me , when you went to Slovenia and took all sorts of stupid pics , was it romantic for you and would you call it one of the romantic things you have done in your life Friend- R u "choco chip fudging me"( not the same words used by him), why would it be romantic, it was exhilarating,serene , peaceful , I would even call it one of the best days of my life but not romantic. Me- So if a guy says that he went to someplace in Europe with his camera taking pics and that was one of the romantic things he did? What do you think about this Friend- What's there to think , he DEFINITELY went with his gf or wife, might have took her pics there, that I would call romantic.My camera and gf at one place that's like my passion and my love together , it's romantic. Me- No you have answered too fast , think again Friend- Wait whom are u talking about , r u seeing someone blah blah blah Also since he was on a fake sick leave for two three days , I sent him some of the binjin clips bts and lied" u know many people think they are dating but I think they are just friends , since you are free and I am curious ,tell me what do you think about it" After watching few bts clips: he said Friend- Mila, we have been friends for years now , when did we behave this way. They both are certainly not just friends , it's so obvious they are in relationship. Hospital bts- He said "let's assume that hair smelling and head holding they were just teasing and being playful , but he leaned very intimately towards her ( although he leaned his head towards her arm but his head was too close to ahem ahem )and she was not at all uncomfortable she continued laughing.That never happens between friends. You or any other lady friend would have slapped me ". (Remember this is the very first time he acknowledged me as a lady in our entire 7 yrs of friendship , that means he was Hella serious and the BTS is hospital scene when binnie was eager to show Jinnie his scars while rehearsal and she hit him and he leaned and laughed towards her) I wish I knew how to post pics or gifs of the scenes here , but I don't know how to do it, if somebody understood all the scenes , please help. Koala jump bts- He said "I am not an actor , I don't know about this , you told me that they were deciding how to portray a scene so I can't say anything about their practice koala hugging , but standing so close that even her hair was touching his cheek while monitoring their shot on phone. Sometimes we ( 3or 4 people) watched certain videos on only one phone , even worked on one laptop for presentations despite that we have never stood this close ever". That cute binnie's " bang bang" bts when they fell down and even after cut he was comfortably resting his head on her chest and said " I must have vanished" Episode 2 beginning bts when he was holding seri caged between his arms at his house gate , after cut binnie continued looking at Jinnie with so much love and smiled without removing his hands. According to him all these things are very telling. His conclusion- They are definitely in a relationship , I know that guy likes her , and the HOT girl is smiling and so comfortable and shy when ever he does these gestures, means they are in a relationship it's not one sided. Disclaimer- All the above words was of my friend, although he is tall and belongs to male species , the similarity between binnnie and him ends here especially in the looks department he is nothing like our binnie or else I would have grocery shopped with him and instead of being just friends , I would have tried making him my "CLOSE FRIEND".He just shared what he thinks after watching few bts.I chose to believe him with my delulu heart. Period P.S.- We all friends including male female used to live together in a co ed university hostel few years back during our university years in Paris. So hand holding , hugging and kiss on cheeks is very normal and a way of greeting between people there. So the above mentioned skinship although very subtle , but it's very very intimate for us Europeans as well. Hang in there binjin fam, watch out for Jinnie she might be busy skyping someone in Jordan from Korea or grocery shopping in Jordan. Either of the two. Binjin Family- don't resort to the counting of leaves and matching bricks during this drought , take care and stay healthy. 11 3 36 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Period LOL!! Funny disclaimer!! I enjoy reading your conversation with your friend. I think it's always very insightful to ask a guy's perspective about Binjin and all their BTS and even on stage interactions. A lot of us are also suspecting that the romantic Europe getaway with the camera is more than just photography of landscapes and buildings. This is also the same interview when HB declared he will not be Public Property anymore in the future. When asked to tell a secret, he said if he tells it, its no longer a secret. All of this in the same interview LOL!! This was May 2019, just after Jan 2019 grocery gate. Wink Wink! I will also choose to believe your friend's POV, with my delulu heart. @Peony Thanks for sharing your thots about how you came to watch CLOY and became a fan of the drama and now of Binjin. I have also come across negative comments at the start of the drama. In fact before it aired, most of the comments on the teasers and trailers (at least in English forums) were mostly negative. I went into the drama with pretty low expectations and prepared myself for a cheesy, not so solid storyline type of Rom.Com. I only checked it out cuz I like HB from MNIKSS and recently caught him in MOTA, and have liked a lot of SYJ's earlier movies. One thing that really made me curious was the pairing of HB and SYJ. Never have I imagined this to happen, cuz they are like from 2 different worlds - HB is mostly in dramas and SYJ mostly in movies. I had no idea about their movie The Negotiation until later after I started watching CLOY. But right from Ep 1, I was totally sucked into the drama. By the time Ep 2 ended, I was a goner. I also started searching about HB and SYJ, about the drama, etc etc and of course came across their dating rumours etc. As for the negative comments towards CLOY, by the time Ep 3 & 4 came along, the positive comments were more than the negative. And from Ep 5 onwards, the positive feedback was so overwhelming, you cannot even see the negative ones anymore. The naysayers came towards the end of the drama, when foreign media reports started coming in showing the impact CLOY has made in different countries. There were arguments and discussions and then we just left it. Now, 4-5 months after that, CLOY has shown its lasting power and the full impact it has made worldwide. As for Binjin, it was a naturally transition for me to go from a drama fan to RiRi fan and now a Binjin fan. I fully agree with your thots on Binjin being equal partners, and both are strong leaders but with different styles. HB is quiet, and steady, while YJ is sunny and outspoken. I have also said the same thing earlier on, a few times, when I came across that comparison of "weak HB" vs "strong YJ". One thing for sure, YJ wouldn't have been attracted to HB if he was so called "weak". He has an inner-strength that YJ can see through, and vice-versa HB can see YJ's strength too. They are both full-glass, complementing each other. 2 hours ago, SHpectator said: wth can someone explain this to me coz srsly i can't...

A lot of post here and those i have seen on Instagram seem to imply the notion that being gentle,soft,caring,affectionate and not afraid to show real feeling AS A MAN is a sign of emotional weakness.I'm glad that there is a man like that (HB) exists in this world LOL.Men don't have to act tough and agressive all time lol.It is still far to assume what kind of person he really is in real life,but at least from what i have seen,he is very very respectful to women. Also,i have come across some post that are trying to deliver the message that SYJ is* playing hard to get* while Binnie is *trying so hard to impress her*,and i think it is cringey af lol Edited July 9, 2020 by blue velvet 9 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I tried looking at it from different perspectives (in spite of the language used) and the only way I can categorize it is as click bait. They seem to have taken a very popular topic (CLOY, SYJ, HB, etc.) and used them as highlights knowing that it would pique interest. They probably hope to make it go viral. 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I took my favorite parts from what he said. Also the fact he said SYJ was "HOT girl" I died lol.. Also in terms of potential "romantic cities" if you include this to mean the 5 common romance languages, they are France, Spain, Italy and Romania lol (google romance language and read wikipedia.. and you will see why I just named these places instead lol). I also tend to travel by myself too and take scenic photos but I wouldn't consider doing that to be romantic if I was going to these places by myself If anything, it would just make me wish more I had a bf to go to these romantic cities with The hospital scene was a giveaway to me. I have never seen friends touch each others hairs like that unless they are a couple! Even if she is teasing lol.. Like she even made sure his hair still looked ok after she played with his hair LOL! How nice of her Plus look at the way Binnies face and how he is laughing while she is doing that. Ok.. What happened right after.. It just cut Honestly, after seeing 6 episodes of Ireland? (where did I stop watching at now.. Oh no I don't remember lol), it has become clear she was clearly motivated to koala hug him from this show Why she keeps koala hugging him while filming that scene.. who knows Maybe Binnie should have done a lot better at Compliment Me. He just went for the easy flower compliment. He should have probably known she wrote the other compliment. However, she really got him with mentioning the Ireland OST and saying she was in middle school then lol 10 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites
