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

[itspeanutbutterjellytime 2,812]

@September 22@binjin Thank you for sharing this very important research .

 

I was just reading that and thinking that he’s just looking into the BTS (which aren’t even our biggest receipts! - cause some people could always say yeah they work together so they look friendly like many other co stars who look cute after CUT), imagine what he has to say about those off cam moments like TN promos and swoon and of course the grocery. It’s so painfully obvious but we really need it to be more obvious for a peace of mind lol.

The bread thing is a popular meme on Twitter .It has nothing to do with BinJin , mostly the characters ? Not the actors ??? 
 

 

[Krystal. 1,945]

The bread thing is something between the Twitter fans it’s just a meme and she’s actually one of BinJin’s biggest Twitter fan so I don’t think she meant any harms or was trying to click bait anyone

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!!

 

You are correct @TotoroSY. I took a pause from replying to your post as I couldn't remember when he talked about certain stuff back then. Luckily, I remembered he talked a lot about it in Taxi interview. Then I went back to reread some of his interviews from his early years and what he said. So looks like when Classic was filmed in 2002 he most likely wasn't in school then (it will just go into a list of opportunities they could have crossed paths then lol). He was doing theatre at the university for a year and then the audition for Shower came about. It was mentioned 2002 for that movie but maybe he shot earlier (who knows lol) In order to do the movie, he decided to take a leave from school. The movie had only shot mid way before funding was cut and it didn't happen. Since he found it embarrassing and all his friends & classmates  knew about him doing the movie, he decided to not go back to school and focus more on his acting career for the next 3 years. That is why we got so much more movies/dramas from him in 2003-2004 before landing MNIKSS (2005). I noticed even SYJ in Delicious Proposal, she cooks on this show (I started the show recently) - It reminds me of Sam Soon in MNIKSS (maybe this is why she brought up the show that time while promoting April Snow in 2005. If she played Sam Soon, it would be yet another character she has played before lol. She has always been about playing different roles and not doing similar projects. That was why she said the audience wouldn't have liked her in it even if she knows she could play the role well lol). In an interview when he was talking about Friend, he mentioned that he had dreamt about doing a project like this since 2001, before his debut. One thing is clear when you read old HB interviews and watch old HB interviews, there is a lot of incorrect information of his early years online. Some places say he only has one brother but he clearly says he has two brothers in the Taxi interview

HB- manly, yet humble, gentle, loving, and kind...

 

If only all men are like HB, then this world of ours would be a better place to live in.

 

SYJ, do you know how sooooo lucky you are ?

@MY15

Big thanks for updating us on the evolution mode ... still don't like the dark background but love the font size. And while we're at it, free the emoji GIFs from their boxes !!!

 

SYJ, you rock!!! When you said "Thank you very much!" at Baeksang Awards, you were dropping a huge hint that your eye smiles were directed at Hollywood. You also looked at Bin when you uttered those words so he probably knew, too. Very smart to accept an offer that will film on her home turf since the US is not faring well with the pandemic at this moment.  

 

Actually kinda sensed that SYJ was interested in work coming from abroad ... was watching a roundtable discussion of high profile celebrities which included Nicole Kidman who said they were starting a movie project about women in Asia which included a Korean character.  Sandra Oh, a Korean-Canadian actress,  was also in the roundtable but it seemed she was unaware of this role. If they were casting for a Korean actress, SYJ was the only one that popped in my head, of course. I have a feeling that she was entertaining several offers - The Cross may be the one she's favoring. 

 

As for her better half, he may stand to get more offers from Hollywood, as well. Lee Byung Hun has been getting most of the Asian roles ; goodness knows, one can count on one hand all the prominent Asian roles in movies, stateside.  He has had one international independent movie in Late Autumn, so he's comfortable in speaking English. Hopefully, he doesn't get type casted in villain roles but if there's one villain role that I wish for him - it's the ultimate one for James Bond!  My imagination explodes with the possibilities ... as good-looking  as James Bond & backed up by  the most savvy Korean technology  in the planet ... heck, he doesn't have to speak English because Bond needs to learn his ...

Everyone, just dropping by a quick post re: Yejin potential Hollywood offer, marriage, womanhood/motherhood etc.

 

Hollywood: I'm not holding my breath. I'm Asian American so I'm pretty sensitive to how Western media portrays Asians. Let's just say the roles Asian actors get have been generally extremely racist or stereotypical. Watch Blackhat and Downsizing for reference. Asian men, for the most part, are still typcasted in the martial arts/action category. There are many historical and political reasons for this. I'm happy to talk more about this in DM if you want. (Also will be posting in SYJ thread soon about my thoughts). But SYJ has rejected Hollywood offers before so if she takes on the role, it means she sees merit in it. The only thing I'm concerned about is that she, having grown up in Asia and never experienced being a racial minority, won't see some subtle racial contexts that I, having grown up as a racial minority, would see. 

 

Marriage: am I thinking about this too simplistically? I didn't know marriage comes with suspending your work life? If so, then what about the countless working mothers out there? And doesn't getting married literally take a day? Court registration, wedding, done! 

 

Womanhood: I'm going to be super blunt here. I understand the concern for Yejin's biological clock etc. I know that we are all anxious and excited for BinJin. But please, for the love of them, stop imposing our timelines onto them. Like someone said, Choi Ji Woo recently gave birth at the age of 45! Lee Young Ae got married at the age of 39 and gave birth at 40. And with modern technology especially in SKorea, I'm not too concerned.

 

Last, this whole can-Yejin-balance-work-and-family and women-can-have-it-all talk...I think most of us, especially SYJ fans, know by now that she's pretty much a feminist. I'm just going to say it's 2020...so please also reserve that work-family balance talk for men as well. 

 

Edit: I am no way implying being a stay-at-home mom/wife is bad and that it's un-feminist. Everyone should have the right to choose. I'm trying to speak to the mindset that is still so focused on women when it comes to work after marriage because it still implies that child caring is a woman's job. 

[jamy47 3,757]

I dont even know why the work- family balance thing is a debate really. In South Korea i dont see these actors being overworked especially in recent years. They all seem to have a good balance of work and personal life. A movie takes 1 to 3 months to film usually and a drama can go to six months but they get breaks and they go back to their homes at night after a day of filming. Back then things used to be harsh for them with the early morning until night filming but since then i think due to many advances in technology it has improved a lot and they dont struggle as much. They do two projects max a year and it takes like half of the year and the other half they get to relax not doing a lot.  A wedding takes literally ONE day and if they do it in secret even better lol. Really a work-life balance for celebs are good these days in general in any country.

I agree. I can see the worries people have about biological clocks as carrying your own child over 40 is not a guarantee, just a "hopefully." Our girl would definitely know this and be taking it into consideration.

 

SYJ is opinionated and wants what she wants. I trust her to make well-informed decisions. Maybe they'll skip marrying and secretly date forever? Maybe they'll marry in secret and never feel the need to go public? Maybe they have changed their minds about kids and just want to enjoy their careers together? IF she really wants her own child with her own DNA (my 41 year-old friend had to use a donated egg), then smart and wise SYJ is already taking that into consideration. Freezing eggs? Who knows, right? IF she cares about marrying at all or marrying before some certain age, then she has already considered that in her plans, as well. But she definitely can have a change of heart about such things over time. It happens. Maybe she doesn't feel strongly about marrying before 40 anymore and wants to enjoy her career? You can't know what you'll feel until that time in your life actually arrives.

 

What we CAN be sure about is that she will do what's best for her. She always does. And she'll want Binnie to do what's best for him because she's so mature like that. I don't feel anything will be overlooked or forgotten because SYJ (and HB as well) do not roll that way. That's why we respect them--they are talented, super cool, AND smart. I feel they will marry this year, but more than anything, I feel they are talking and sharing and deciding together with thoughtful, clear heads. I want what they want, and I trust them both to be very careful and intentional in that. Whatever happens is what they want to happen, and I'm good with that.

 

The ship sails on!!! (We need a boat gif.)

Given this drought, i won't be surprised if we will start analyzing all the luggage that was shown in the Jordan clip. Hahahahaha!  Desperate times...

Girl, I hear you. The drought is real. I've had CLOY OST on loop while working, and I'm re-watching all the TN and CLOY promo clips when I'm not working. My husband wondered why we had cereal for dinner last night. I didn't have the heart to tell him I needed to get back to more binging on BinJin.

Just stumbled on a Twitter montage video. Some of the pictures we've seen before but I was very surprised to find in the video HB posing/modeling in the '18 TN days in a jacket (security, M-Stream, or VAST) not sure since I don't read Korean but he was thoroughly into it and appeared to enjoy it very much. See if you'll be as surprised as me. All barriers seemed to be down:

Loved the clip. I've noticed HB always lets SYJ have the window seat on the bus which is consistent with our collective agreement that HB is an incredibly sweet man.

 

By the way, this makes me think of Drew Barrymore's The Wedding Singer. Her fiance made her take the aisle seat on an airplane even though she wanted the window. Spoiler, she did NOT end up together with this jerk of a man.

I caught too a while back that he said 2 brothers in the Taxi interview. Then  after seeing him consistently refer to 1 brother in future interviews, I just assumed he misspoke during the Taxi interview. I thought maybe his brain was anticipating the question as being how many children in his family or maybe the statement was incorrectly translated. It baffled me and made me try to find confirmation of the sibling number through other comparisons.

TGIF chingus!

Another week has passed without the news that everyone is waiting to hear. But its all good, I think and I know all of you also think, that our ship remains to be sailing smoothly.

So meantime here's a little oldie I found which put a smile on my face. This may seem a little pervy but those hands!!! Imagine them applying sunscreen on someone else . OK, I leave it at that  and will go no futher as we want to keep it classy and clean.

I'm not sure if this video has already been posted here but in case it hasn't or if you haven't seen it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did

I mentioned this in the club but I will say it here (I went into a lot of detail in there). I was looking at LBH and LMJ's marriage and work pre and post wedding. They dated for a year before they got married. They originally denied dating and eventually confirmed as there were marriage rumors coming out. When they confirmed they were dating, it came out that they briefly dated 6 years ago. LBH was busy promoting 2 Hollywood movies before their marriage and LMJ just finished a TV show before they got married. LBH literally went back to work a month after their wedding (that project was done in Feb 2014). They both also attended lots of events after their wedding (date August 2013). 2014 LBH was busy working on 2 other projects (which includes Terminator which filmed overseas) and LMJ worked on a TV show from January-April (I assume she joined him abroad after she was done). That was her last project before getting pregnant. So yes it is possible to work, be married, have a family and have a successful relationship. LBH continues to work a lot and LMJ is doing a TV show right now

Yea I noticed that later when I was reading back again earlier today LOL!.. He does say one brother. It was in a fact sheet . He even said where he lived LOL! I was like umm why did he get that personal? Is this real (was what went through my head lol)  Maybe the Taxi interview, someone translated it wrong  Also noticed people also mention he has an MA at Seoul University (when I was reading again in his thread)? Who knows LOL! If he really did continue going to school and acting at the same time, I am impressed lol

 

2010 Binnie was funny. He didn't care how many kids as long as one of them was a son lol

Aigoo... chingu! Don’t say that. We all gotta be here for d-day! We can all ‘die‘ together when we get the confirmation..  although we need to resurrect right away as we have to wait for the twins next! 
 

Stay healthy, BinJin nation!

I was confused too when I watched the Taxis interview he said  he has TWO brothers and their ocuppations

Haiz, Google says he only have 1 bro and was not corrected till now.

But Google is VERY UPDATED  when you search ‘Hyun Bin Wife’ and ‘Hyun Bin GF’.  Its Jinnie...Jinnie...Jinnie...  lol 

[Samsam 2,832]

Ok, so Hyun Bin will be leaving for Jordan on the 13th and they’re taking a chartered flight as confirmed in an article posted today by Naver. 

Ye Jin, it’s okay. 

i have a dumb question though. For chartered flights, do they need to go through airport inspection/the works? Or they go straight at the tarmac and the airport staff will attend to them there? Hoping to see fancams on the 13th. 

 

 

[ElectricHearts 26,599]

I guess to go with v/ast photoshoot update lol hl science did an update too haha

 

 

 

 

I am surprised they are actually telling us publicly when HB and HJM are flying out! I hope they aren't swarmed by paps.

 

Also, they gave me a HJM work schedule update LOL! Glad he filmed his press stuff earlier. So he doesn't need to fly out again
