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

[Nor Salimah Hassan 1,025]

Good morning! How's everyone doing? I'm very sure all of us still in clouds 9 & disbelief. But the best part, after all the whining about the Amazer, we can finally at ease, smiling from ears to ears. It's beyond happiness and grateful isn't it? It's BINJIN NATIONS winning too. 

 

Congratulations to both supporting actor Kim Young Min and actress Kim Sun Yong who both portrayed their characters very well in CLOY.

 

Congratulations to our dearest Yejin, who happily received her KTN seezn star award. Her warm speech always not forget to thank her fans for the hard work at voting surpassed our grief for her not winning other categories. It's ok Yejin-shii, You are still the winner in our heart.

 

Congratulations to our dearest HyunBin for winning the Daesang award. His passion and honored to each masterpiece and crafts is paid off. Well deserved. More than that, his heartwarming speech thanked us his fans, and each persons involved in CLOY making, well received & appreciated by the whole world. He carefully crafted his speech, with a nervous looks and teary eyes he openly expressed his gratitude and love to his best partner and loved of his life. Who needs SNS or write a letter anyway? He did it on his way and with class. 

 

 

This is more than enough right. Hats off to Yejin's good partner and loved of her life. We can see as to why Yejin feel confident about this relationship and ready to open about her feelings for the first time to the world. 

 

We stan on the best actor and best actress. We stan for the best couple. They set a new standard for couples in K-Ent industry. Their love are cheered not only by K-netz locals but crossed the globe. We are so blessed to witness all this happenings. We are blessed to be in this fandom. 

 

Oh last but not least, I'm quite surprised with the best manager award. But still, KKT from Vast deserved the award. Congratulations! He's with Bin for so long, a dear closed friend and good manager to Bin. He also a secret keeper and best Binjin supporter. 

 

I'm sure there will be more great happenings this year. Please prepare our heart. Hahahaa, since yesterday I'm still in disbelief and my heart's exploding. 

 

While we are celebrating, please be mindful on our words to others. This doesn't give us a special credits or power to degrade or throw hateful words to anyone. Respect and stay classy. Remember, fans reactions will reflect to our dearest OTP. 

 

Congratulations again CLOY AND BINJIN NATIONS.

Haven't visited in awhile here... but congrats to KKT for his best manager award, Kim Sun-young and Kim Young-min for supporting actress and actor, YJ for the SEEZN award, and HB for the Daesang... APAIN, I mean APAN, still sucks for all the other snubs (Best drama, Best actress), but I'm still happy that they got some recognition here. 

 

I've translated HB's speech on my Twitter: 

https://twitter.com/celest1al1/status/1353017706954461184?s=20

@celest1al Thank you for your translation. I’ve listened and read the other translations but I understand yours the most and it makes sense especially the part “Ye-Jin-shii made/modelled Yon Seri’s character well, and so Ri Jeong-Hyuk was wonderfullly/beautifully brought to life through her (or breathed life into RJH). 

 

[backstreetboysfan 5,523]

Congratulations CLOY Team, Vast Team (KKT), Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin!!! .

[BinJinBest 1,223]

Aww.. the admiration and respect that HB has consistently expressed towards SYJ over the years.. their partnership is really extraordinary in reel and real life. They simply bring out the best in each other!

 

Congratulations HB for your big win! Happy that CLOY cast gome some well deserved recognition locally. That representatives from RJH's squad and YSR's ahjumma group got awarded too. They were all fantastic in their roles. Also thinking like some, SYJ was so iconic in her YSR role she deserved best actress for cloy too. Anyhow, with her large sum of best actress awards over the years, the awards she got from fans this year is specially meaningful exactly as she said, because  it is from her fans. perhaps a different or special feeling that so many people/ viewers (and many of them new ones) worked hard to support you thru a fan award. Fans that you usually build through the years, that cannot be bought.

 

I think yeah, maybe partly she didnt attend to fully give the limelight to HB and not overshadow with their recent announcement. But of course she was still present through video and Hb's thank you message. Really their style to stay lowkey for professional work. 

Hb's 'yejinshii' part so touching.

 

We got a lot of content this January.

Seeing them together in one frame, hopefully for Smart's february CF. Fingers crossed! 

 

 

[Abanti Farook 1,047]

Hyun bin is SUCH A GENTLEMAN.... so dignified... So classy... Yet so genuine... Hats off

[Whitecheddarpopcorn 776]

HB's speech was soooo full of admiration, respect and LOVE for his girlfriend. As an actor, he could have included YJ on the part where he thanked his colleagues just like in his past speeches. But no, he even went out of his way to share his moment with YJ, acknowledging her talent so he can be the best version of himself. HB is indeed the good person we all thought he is. A man worthy of that award and his woman's pride and honor.

As for SYJ, she is as bubbly and appreciative as expected. Contented, happy, blessed, who couldn't ask for more.

Always nice to celebrate victories for this couple no matter how big or small. Clearly, they inspire and bring out the best of each other. They are winners in life, career and love. It really pays to be good.

Congratulations BINJIN. 

 

[KimDdalgi 1,266]

Wow! Jinnie is really "The Most Beautiful Woman in the World" and "The Best Partner" ever. That's why Binnie really adores and loves her. (Wink Wink Wink) 

 

She's really funny here. A Jinnie Best Girl whose been a straight forward.

 

 

[eLizza 11,014]

Wow what a roller coaster ride it was..From cursing APAIN for wasting our $11 to swooning over Hyun Bin's speech..It was a unique experience.. Congratulations Hyun Bin for snatching that Daesang..

 

I remember how we were always upset abt the CLOY snub and crying over Binnie being robbed again and again for his role as captain Ri..But wow!! Good things happen with good people.. Now Best boy has one popularity (voted by fans), KPCC award (given by President) and finally the most prestigious acting prize for an award show Daesang..for his role in CLOY.. Although i m still a bit upset abt Yejin and the drama award but atleast we got something that too from a korean award show..

 

We know Binjin were both fabulous in playing their characters for CLOY.. However some people were saying that Son Ye Jin deserved it more because of her role being multidimensional..I respect their opinion but APAN has set some criteria ..Contribution towards Hallyu wave is a major factor in deciding the winner..And as i think they could nominate only one star from a drama, they leaned towards HB..It is well known that although CLOY popularity is due to both Binjin but Hyun Bin already contributed a lot to spread the hallyu wave with his previous projects..Thus Hyun Bin definitely deserves to win although for us Capt Ri = Yoon Seri..

@Seriya I hope , i could answer your question as to why Hyun Bin was billed for CLOY whereas, YJ for Nego..One has got more Hallyu dramas, whereas other was more into movies.

Also as to why Yejin didn't attend?? In my opinion it didn't have much to do with stealing the spotlight.They always keep their professional duty in the forefront.

I think it is mostly because of COVID cases ..plus her award being a just fan voted one didn't make enough sense to take the risk..Even Kim Soo Hyun who won only a popularity award just sent a message.. Although she did attend Baeksang but the winners were not decided unlike Apan. It is always like this with attendance award shows..If you don't get a prize, you don't attend.

 

Now coming back to their speeches..SYJ is such a sweetheart.

.She is always grateful towards her fans..This was the award where she got highest votes even beating the winner in the idol category..Btw , this voting didn't require spending money..All we needed to do was make emails.

Finally...Hyun Bin....aahhh...my heart is still fluttering thinking abt his speech..I was expecting him to take Yejin's name but not that level of praise... He could have just thanked her but no he went on to elaborate how Yoon Seri completed Ri Jeong Hyuk ..It was like he was conveying his message via the drama characters..a perfect answer to her insta post in the best possible way..

Was I the only one who felt as if there were two Daesang winners instead of one??

 

[LavenderVirgo 1,748]

I have really enjoyed reading everyone’s posts today!  So many comments I kept nodding to in agreement.
 

The more I reflect on Binnie’s speech the more I think it was perfect in how he managed to convey his sincere thanks to his fans and colleagues in a professional and grateful way, and also acknowledged/shared his moment with his best partner in a sweet way without losing the professionalism. That was a lot to pack into an acceptance speech and Binnie did it so well, bravo! 

I just love the tandem of BinJin and how they complement and support each other equally in their own individual way. They each made their own big love gestures: Jinnie through her IG post, and Binnie through his acceptance speech. These actions were public and out of their usual comfort zone which says so much about how they feel about each other. We may not have gotten any PDA but we definitely felt their heart melting sweetness. So much to admire about our classy BinJin couple!

I agree with you, I believe the judges has another criteria for this. 

 

I also want to address some misunderstanding because I see some solo stans being put into the bad light just because of their opinion that "Ye Jin deserved the award more". First of all, they are not saying that Hyun Bin doesn't deserve it. It's only that in their point of view, like what you said, they think So Ye Jin's role has shown multi-dimensional acting. Comparison is inevitable and should not be taken as an offense against Hyun Bin. Take for example a basketball league, one of the players in the winning team gets the MVP award. Regardless of the positions played, the award goes to the one the judges think made a valuable play on the game. Since we all have different opinions, it's understandable that some will vote for Ye Jin as she have the most lines, expressed different emotions all at once, cried the most, etc. But assuming the judges voted for Hyun Bin for portraying a character that is unique in tv dramas, less lines but more warmth, and have perfectly portrayed a man who only looked after one woman which made him loved by the viewers world wide. These we cannot discredit. Yes, comparisons are inevitable inside a team since the people are choosing between them who is the most valuable player. And that is understandable as long as one do not attack the others below the belt. 

 

So i hope other shippers do not generalize and single out solo stans because of the difference in perspective. 

 

For me, I believe both Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin deserved that award. I am so happy for Hyun bin but honestly, I'm a little sad because this is such a MISSED OPPORTUNITY for Ye Jin to get a daesang. This is the only award she haven't took home yet as she is more on movies than tv dramas (daesangs are given to tv dramas except in Baeksang, who have it for both). So I understand why solo Ye Jin stans are so disappointed that she was not nominated on the daesang award.

We may wish that she get another hit tv drama in a local network to get a daesang but reality check, Ye Jin is not a tv drama actress favorite. Maybe because she focused on movies that she declined tv drama offers? Who knows. And haters, used this fact as well. Solo stans know this. So I really really understand why they are sulking and comparison is inevitable. I just want to say this because they are judged because of this. But good things come to those who wait. Let's claim it.

 

So yeah, I hope the ship be peaceful and no be too tight on the reins. Let's all spread love, kindness and empathy! 

[GroceryShipper 3,249]

Congratulations to Hyun Bin for winning Daesang! I'm glad that his talent was finally acknowledged and rewarded by the body. I was touched by his speech. He sounded so serious, kinda like teary-eyed so you can sense his sincerely and gratefulness especially to Ye Jin.

 

Unfortunately there is only one Daesang for APAN. Let's just hope for Ye Jin to win Daesang maybe not in APAN but through other award giving bodies. With Ye Jin's talent, I'm sure it will not go unnoticed. As the saying goes "There is always time for everything." 

 

For the moment let's celebrate their winnings. Binnie's achievement is not his alone, I believe he is sharing it with his other half.

@GroceryShipper I do agree with you. There is always time for everything. I'm looking forward with Jinnie's Hollywood Movie "Cross" that she will be nominated and win on Oscars/Academy Awards, Emmy Awards, Golden Globe Awards and Cannes Film Festival.

”The character Jeong-hyeok was alive more beautifully thanks to the character of Se-ri well made by Ye-jin” in this article is my most favourite translation of what HB said of YJ in his acceptance speech.

Back from the weekend madness and now ready for the new week madness. What a way to end the weekend and start the week with such great news about BinJin. I'm super happy and proud of them. They have both really worked hard and deserve all this love and recognition, not only from their fans but also their peers, colleagues, experts and audiences in general. 

 

HB's speech, oh his speech. I don't know what else to say, you all have said what I wanted to say. He's forever humble, respectful and thankful of those he's worked with. And of course, his final thanks to Yejin shows that you don't have to go all crazy with the "I love you" and "I want to thank the love of my life" and all that in public to show your love. People wanted him to write a letter, this is more than enough of a letter. Heck, you don't even need to attend the show together and have all the PDAs to show that you're in love. Just words like how he's said for the entire world to hear is enough. And the fact that he thanked her for perfectly embodying YSR and being RJH's best partner, that it was her who brought RJH alive, not Bin who did so, he's putting her before him again, as always. 

 

I just read a post saying that when Bin thanked the writer, director and CLOY cast, he used "kamsahamnida" which is the formal way of saying thank you. But when he thanked YJ/YSR, he used "gomapda", which is a more informal way, used for your closest people like family. @celest1al I'm not an expert at this, do you want to give a bit of your 2 cents? 

 

Final thoughts:

• I didn't know there's a Best Manager award haha! Congrats to HB's best buddy and VAST for receiving this. It's rare to see such great and loyal friendship that can do business AND be successful together. I love how KKT said how much he loves and appreciates HB, just really show what a beautiful man, inside and outside, HB is. Again, super happy for both of these guys and what they've achieved so far. 
• I could clearly see HB's eye bags and dark circles during his speech :(( I hope he's getting the rest he needs and that he's not overworking himself. Best wishes to his upcoming filming months!

 

As always, have a wonderful and stress-free Monday to all of you, wherever you are!

One perk of living in Los Angeles is being able to visit the places SYJ posts on her IG account as she often visits and while Pavilions Newport Beach (setting of the most iconic event in a BinJin shipper's life) is about 45 miles away, many of her posts features my home city.  It will be two years since she posted the tree photo- January 26.  While it could be argued that HB could not have been the one who took the photographs as he was back in SK on the 24th,    there could also be the possibility that he did (e.g.late posting as she often does).  How else can the double heart emoji comment be explained?  She also has an over sized blazer draped over her shoulders (if this was her own blazer, it would not be draped but rather worn as January afternoons even in sunny SoCal could get nippy).

In honor of the upcoming anniversary date of the posting, I  visited the tree today.  This is in front of the Garden Suite Hotel where two years ago her friend's daughter had her first birthday based on a prior posting she had.  The hotel is located in the heart of Korea Town and it is coincidentally across from a Ralph's.  

For those who may not agree that it was HB who took the photo, kindly save your breath and allow me to delulu.  Standing in front of the tree was surreal knowing that SYJ stood in that same spot and HB taking her photograph without her seemingly knowing.  I first visited this tree in June last year when I was month in as a shipper.  I read about it on here and realized I knew exactly where it was located.  Back then I could not understand what the draw of our OTP was.  I was one who was never fazed by celebrity.  And yet there I was doing my journey. 

I thought my interest in them would die down and I could get on with my life once the announcement was made,  But boy was I more wrong!  Based on my reaction from 1/23/21 (22 days after 1/1/21) HB's APAN speech I think I will be a shipper for a long, long time.  I am ready to embrace whatever they are willing to share of their lives.

And for those of you who remember my invite a few pages back to come meet up in LA once travel eases, the offer stands. 

 

I am pretty sure most of you share my sentiments, our love for this couple lives in our hearts and will be there for a very long time.

[kdramahkfan 48]

In CLOY, when Jung Hyuk tells his dad he can't breathe properly before knowing whether or not Se Ri was safe. Now Hyun Bin is thanking Ye Jin for portraying her character so well, thus allowing his character to stand tall and breathe well. 

 

 Isn't that an indirect way for Binnie to say Jinnie has become his motivation in life/reason to breathe and live well?

 

I love the fact that he shows just the right amount of professionalism and affection through his speech. He thanked her as actor to actress, acknowledged her contribution in shaping his character. He doesn't avoid mentioning her just because the world knows they're together, he gives her the credit she deserves.

[kimeon_ 1,722]

I am still high from Hyun Bin's acceptance speech last 23rd. 22 days after their confirmation. and 22 days from 23rd will be Valentine's Day and I hope we'll get (HOPEFULLY) Smart joint CF on V Day. 

 

22 is meant for BinJin. Ok, before I sound crazier with this 22 digits, I need to end this note with a hope that they will get married on 22nd, any month. Hopefully 22nd April 2021 coz April means exactly one year of their confirmed relationship. My maths could be wrong, but don't blame me, blame it on BinJin. Hahaha. Kidding. have a good day chingus. May we receive lotsa BinJin happy news in days to come.. 

[Blithenostalgia 1,094]

These two posts are such a wonderful written compilation of their love story! nothing new, but I will never grow tired of reading their destined loved story!

Listening to KKT’s speech makes me think he loves and adores HB more than his own wife. Lmao. I love a good bromance and it’s so heartwarming to see his past pics hanging out with HB and SYJ. I could imagine the future family gatherings they’ll be having.  
 

I’m honestly a little concerned about HB looking tired look. It’s either they’re doing a lot of Netflix and chillin lol or he might be preparing for a role. He did look a little leaner in the first CA film so he probably is trying to get back to that look before filming starts. He always seems to be serious and quiet unless he’s with Ye Jin then we get to see his sunny personality lol. I love that they seem to really complement each other, they really are perfect together!
