Just ruminating again. Is it possible SYJ has had a crush on HB forever even before TN? I mean the side glance at PIFAN 2014.... they obviously noticed each other, how could they not, maybe exchanged a few words (who was the genius who sat them beside each other? Gotta thank that person one day!)... but then also things she’s said even jokingly like she’s been watching his career, knows what kinds of roles he’s taken, listening to OST from his movies, etc. granted I haven’t seen her other interviews about other costars but she’s always been nothing but complimentary about HB and she’s even said he’s the BEST ACTOR in her life. 
 

Maybe you all have discussed this before and I just missed it. I haven’t back read many pages here.  

 

Yup I have mentioned it before lol. We guess they probably had a crush on each other for a while (fanboy, fangirl crush who knows LOL) Like how can HB watch A Moment To Remember (as well as attend the premiere) and not have a crush on her  lol. Plus you can see she definitely noticed his good looks at PIFAN from the way she glance at him. He was too shy to actually make a conversation which is probably why they only said hi. Regardless, they are both fans of each other. I think that is also why during TN promotional period, he felt more comfortable to call her Actress Son and he knows how good she is as an actress which is why he says to watch TN for SYJ instead of to watch for him or for both of them

You know what.. I ever thought like that too, seems like, she knew all of HB did in the past, she memorized the old OST of HB, but that doesn't meant she set up everything, she was back then not knew him personally, and never make any changes to make a project together. She just want everything going by the flow.

 

And when 2017, there was a changes for her to meet him in one project, maybe her heart got fluttered little bit, or being nervous (I guess every woman who meet HB did it, who didn't do that? HB is a tall man, broad bright shoulder, and have a handsome face, never forget his gentlemen attitude). And HB was totally manly man, who only focus what's in front of him, maybe one time or two times ever thought about her, but that's it. He has many schedule of project and off course he met one or two woman in his life who attract his heart.  

 

But SYJ is smart girl, she didn't want to make  herself into a roller coaster of love, and she has to observe him (this doesn't mean a negative one), is he the one for her? And marriage is a big thing for her, so she must be careful, if HB truly love her, she want him become the last one in a her life. If she can wait until 38 years old to be waiting her prince charming, so two years or three years will be find to know what is HB exactly purpose on her. Is his feeling for her only for a while or for a long time? 

 

Ok, I corrected, since so many HB fans here, they both observe each other. HB must be thinking, that marriage is a big thing also. His parents still together right? So, that's important to him , to make an everlasting marriage. But this is my experience, just want to share here, when you are single woman and man approaching you, you deserve to know about him fully, it's ok for do that. 

 

Listen to this Yongsik mother to Dongbaek.

 

Good night everyone.. Keep on Binjin spirit!!

Hi guys, I just want to remind shippers (including me haha) to ship our OTP responsibly. Sometimes, we tend to overanalyze things, but may I remind you that we have a lot of receipts hihi. So what are we still looking for? Let's just be contented with what we have, okay? I will still visit this forum from time to time coz I love reading all of your insights hihi. I don't know why, but my love for these two just keeps on growing day by day. No matter what happens, i will still support them. And for those antis, let us ship who we want to (coz we know they might be lurking here.) This fandom exists for certain reasons, EVEN THO SOME OF OUR RECEIPTS WERE WAYBACK 2019, BUT STILL VALID AND INDESTRUCTIBLE HEHE. Grocery shopping, the genuineness and authenticity of their actions in BTS, and many more are not product of our delulu minds LOL. 

 

AND NOW I WILL FOCUS ON MYSELF  FIRST COZ I REALLY WANNA ACE MY FUTURE EXAMS HUHU.

[charray]

I agree and support the views of @Sun-shine that overly focussing on the past success and achievements of any half of the couple whether it is SYJ or HB which almost always inevitably give off negative vibes of bragging making people feel uncomfortable. 
 

Past success and achievements are public information which can be easily found in Wikipedia or the artist thread if we are interested. Updates of new or current activities of the artist like filming, CF, events are not the same as the updates seek to provide information of the latest happenings. While there had been posts on HB filming of Barganing and Smart CFs, we also see many posts of Ye-jin for her 20th anniversary and her IG posts like the one where she posted the flowers she received, and people are fine and do not feel uncomfortable (because there is no bragging which makes all the difference.)

 

I am not a SYJ fan or HB fan but instead a shipper fan who supports SYJ and HB to be a couple in real life as I thought they will make a great couple since watching CLOY. Prior to CLOY, I have not watched any HB works but had watched SYJ in The Classic and A Moment to Remember. 

None of us can claim to know SYJ or HB personally. My impression of what they are like which are based on what I had read or watched in their interviews or variety shows or speeches are: 

1) Son Ye Jin:

I recalled an interview where Ye-Jin said that, to her parents, she is is an ordinary daughter who does all the housework at home and they seldom talk about her works and achievements as an actress at home which led me to think that she is a very grounded and humble person who does not let all her success in Chungmuro go to her head. From her IG, she comes across to me as a girl who has a love for flowers, cooking, interior house design and artworks and enjoys hanging out with friends, travelling, reading, the sea and beach and lately golfing as well. It shows that she has a normal life outside her profession as an actress and has wide ranging capabilities and interest. It struck me that she is quite adept in homemaking. I really love her garden and the decor of her house both of which gives off a peaceful and calming vibe to me. 
 

From her relationships with her costars, directors and other colleagues, management team and inner circle of staff and her Cinderella group of friends, she comes across as a person with high EQ and great loyalty who builds and treasures relationships with people and who has the utmost respect for her seniors. She is also a private person who has no previous dating relationships known to the public in her 20 years since her debut.

2) Hyun Bin: 

He comes from a traditional family with traditional values and is close to his family. He chose to join the Marines which is the most difficult military service in South Korea. He come across as a confident and highly intelligent person from his well thought through replies in his interviews. However, he also shows a fun and witty side in his interviews together with SJY. He is also an astute businessman with his investments in his agency which paid off handsomely when acquired by Kakao as well as his investments in properties. Despite his success, he comes across as a humble and grounded person who is also reserved and private and who guards and protects his personal life from the public even though he has made public his previous dating relationships before.
 

Just being handsome and successful and rich does not make a man a great life partner and similarly just being beautiful and sexy and rich and successful does not make a woman a great life partner. Those attributes may be great to start off the admiration and attraction for one another but it takes a lot more than that to nurture and sustain a marriage for a lifetime. We just need to look at the famous SS couple who divorced in less than 2 years. Some of the attributes required are shared values and outlook in life, personality compatibility, lifestyle compatibility, ability to compromise and accept differences, genuine caring and support for one another through good times and bad times etc. 

This is not about comparing whether HB or SYJ is more famous or who is wealthier and you are missing the point to ask people who highlight they are uncomfortable that this thread is turning into a SYJ’s thread to go and post more about HB instead.

SYJ herself is such a humble and well grounded person who does not let her Chungmuro success go to her head so you are not doing SYJ any favour if you keep on harping on her Chungmuro success and wealth particularly in a shipping thread. You are in fact doing a great disservice to her.

 

I really love the post by @jaylaxc which I pasted in the spoiler below. It speaks well of SYJ of how she had handled the BAA so gracefully and has a warm smile throughout which would have comforted HB a little. It is heartwarming and it is such a credit to SYJ to be spoken of as such by a self confessed HB fan. 

 

Spoiler

I watched the whole red carpet and Baeksang live, 

 

Personally, I think Hyunbin was glad SYJ was there with him. Not because I'm shipping for them. 

 

Though they both didn't win for best actor/ actress category, their presence comforted each other because of their special bond as co workers. Her smile was really warm the whole evening, I really think her smile really did comforted him a little. She handled it really gracefully. 

 

Tbh I felt bad for him, because he was nominated 2 years in a row but failed to win best actor. Despite being a HB fan for years, I have to say the other nominations were equally good, equally strong.

 

I saw a comment somewhere stating he's like the Leonardo Dicaprio of Korea. Too good looking for people to take him seriously. 

 

*continues drinking my wine because I'm really disappointed as a fan* 

However, big congrats to all the winners this year!

 

I can really see the disapointment in Hyunbin and Park Seo Joon's face though. 

And I felt really bad for them because they were equally as good.

Hi guys, 

 

This is a reminder. Please don't go overboard with your analysis and speculations. At this point, if you still have to look for more proofs that they are together, may as well just leave this ship for your own sanity. Please don't keep digging and accidentally put a stress on their relationship. They are aware of what we want to know and they care enough to give us what we want to see. They respect and appreciate us for loving and voting for them, in return, they have allowed us to have a little insights to their relationship such as photos backstage together, their stylists posting information of their choice of wardrobe to the event, etc. Do you think the stylists dare to post without their consent? Absolutely NOT! Especially when the dating rumor has been a sensitive topic. 

 

Please don't keep looking things to satisfy our own curiosity and indirectly destroy the ultimate goal here. Be patient and we will hear good news soon. During The Negotiation promotion days, they were freely being affectionate in public because no one was talking about their relationship then. If we want them to act how they used to, we also have to act like we used to, too. 

 

I know it's not easy because I, myself, spent so much time of my day looking at videos, pictures of this couple. However, we must be discipline like our idols and refrain ourselves from investigating their relationship!

 

Much love to all my BinJin fellows! Obviously we are here because we share the same interest!

Pretty sure she also didn't remember about Ireland OST either. However, the fact she took her time to look stuff up on him from his past works. Honestly, she probably read fan comments on him. She always seems to like what fans say about him.  Like she perfected that compliment so well as a fan that he was literally shocked by her compliment  She even knows to call him Gookie-oppa LOL

I think in any country and any industry, people get weird when two superstars get together. Even if they are loved initially some people start to behave a certain way and start to mess with them, especially the media who then begin to stalk them and as their fame grows then there will be a silent mission by media to mess with them in hope of breaking them up and if they cant do that, they will create rumors every second. I have been fans of celebrity couples from different countries, some more liberal than others but the end result remain the same when it comes to celebrity couples there is a risk the moment they confirm the relationship which is why i understand them keeping it to themselves for as long as possible and i wont be a selfish fan because i have shipped quite a few and many broke up later on because of pressure from the public. It is not easy. I notice the couples who make it through are the ones who made sure to divide their personal and professional lives. There must be a limit set or they just wont make it.

Exactly. Fame is fickle and the tide can easily turn against them. They’re more aware of this than any of us, which is why everything they do is so measured and carefully considered. Despite the good intentions from fans, you can clearly see their need for privacy, to keep the spotlight out of their personal lives and to separate Kim Tae-pyung and Son Eon-jin from Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin. Fans enjoy teasing them (how can we not?) and they’ve been equally good-humoured about it but I think there are some irate fans who take it a little too far.

 

Fame and beauty fade; they’re aware that this won’t last forever. Celebrities know that you’re only the flavour of the month for so long. There will come a time when people will forget and probably ship another couple and that’s fine, that’s life. But if their silence means they’re building something more tangible and long-lasting then I’m all for it and I know all of us wish them nothing but the best.

[cocolada]

I agree with @Choi sam sook none of SYJ fans complained about HB’s CFs, new movie.

 

As long as we do not make offend posts about Bin or Jin and follow Soompi rules, then everyone should be welcome to share their own opinions about BinJin, Bin or Jin here. I think.

 

We don’t need to make new set of rules, old or new information, what should not be posted, just follow Soompi rules.

 

I am originally a YJ’s fan first and a BinJin shipper, but my latest post was to defence that it was okay for HB to be sad. So just let everyone share their opinions here instead of you should not do this or do that. It destroy the pleasure of shipping.

If one feels unpleasant with YJ’s individual posts. Then she may be a HB fan only, not a BinJin shipper.

I expected their agencies would deny dating rumors, because both Jin and Bin had openly said they wanted to work together. If they confirmed they were dating, the possibility of working together would have been closed.

 

Very insightful. Never have I been more grateful about them keeping their relationship private than this. If they hadn't thought thoroughly we would have never had a wonderful phenomenon named CLOY with HB and SYJ as leads.

I agree with you!! Basicly, I am a fan of SYJ since decades ago.. I am here because I love this couple.. SYJ looks comfort and being more calm around HB.. The CLOY presscon made me realize that she is into HB already..

 

I know SYJ and HB are veteran actors and already steady in their career that's why of course their financial will be followed them as since they are the A-list actors.. buuuutt I think it's not good and not polite to discuss how rich they are until wrote the details how much assets they have.. 

 

We all here to ship our OTP and share the evidences to discuss that this ship is sailing and might be already in a serious stage which is on the way to tie the knot or maybe already tied the knot.. 

 

Since this is a shippers forum not forbes magazine! Please chingudeul just stick on the purpose that we are here to support their relationship not to compare wealthiness or count on their assets..

 

I am sorry for my comment this time.. pls no offense, I just want to remind you that we have to go back to our main purpose in this forum

Nice sequence! Perfect couple!
What this compilation shows us is:

1- warm gazes

2- contentment and confidence in their smiles.

3- still close and strong

4- matching outfits

5- Pair made in heaven.

I think it is the other way around, YJ always makes HB calm, comfortable and less shy in public with her bubbly personalities and confidence. HB is an introvert person while YJ is extrovert/ introvert person (ambivert) who is more comfortable with social interactions. That is why they compliment each other well.

 

I also like that HB respects YJ’s opinions (her preference of sexy dresses, private dating, Kakao Talk). That is how an independent woman expects from her man, I guess.

Omgg... JAPAN is whipped..with binjin Nation.. CLOY is not only continuously topping the Netflix there but Binjin's "Close Friendship" is also on their radar... Correct me if I m wrong but Japan has one of the most intelligent and hardworking people in the world.. Seems like they too have time for such delulu stuffs that too for foreign celebrities

....(Delulu as in the term coined for Binjin nation by the biggest delulus of the era i.e the antis, xxxShippers etc.)

Recently a Japanese magazine was talking about their rumours and also included the grocery pics.

@Choi sam sook @ElectricHearts Reading your recent responses re how our couple style up for BAA one thought came to my mind. Why they insist on choosing RL is a good question indeed. Perhaps it is their strategic move. You all know RL is iconic American brand and HB's favorite. They are sure aware of huge US reception of CLOY, many big US newspapers, producers, actors discussing endlessly about the SK-NK storyline, their impressive acting prowess, their undeniable chemistry. Perhaps choosing a so well loved American brand is their subtle way to show their gratitude to that appreciation. More importantly, they probably are targeting the US market and their message is pretty clear to me.

Maybe because  they both like the brand RL and as someone before... Ralph’s grocery 

[Panjin]

I agree with what everyone said about being responsible shippers. We need to respect their privacy whether they’re in a relationship or not. For those that are bombarding SYJ and her close friend‘s/ stylist’s Instagram posts with HB related comments, please stop, it’s actually quite embarrassing. I understand since the recent awards we’ve got some new shippers onboard and we’re can’t control what people will say or do but we need to start calling these people out, can all the popular BinJin pages on social media just write a short statement or something about respecting the couple’s boundaries. We love them two and because of this we need to be mindful of what we say or do. If you miss them, go back and view all the valid receipts and FMV we have, there’s thousands of them!

I agree. Hyun Bin can be VERY stoic at times to the point of looking robotic and it's often when he feels the pressure too much because there is a side of him that is quite shy and reserved but i did notice that changed a lot since his negociation days with Son Ye jin and since then it's been quite fascinating as a long time fan to see him being so relaxed.  They always say a man is never complete without a strong, confident and mature woman by his side and i feel this is what has been missing for him. He had an amazing career and is now a veteran actor so finding someone who has that same experience in the industry who he can talk to about his plans and share their future projects together must be such a blessing. I like both so much and think they can learn so much from each other and have a great life.

HB is a calm person refer to introvert.. YJ maybe as you said that she is an ambivert person but in my opinion, she is an introvert person because an introvert person can disguised being an extrovert person with show it by the cheerful etc as YJ has done..

 

And in my opinion, after TN promotions, and on sharp in presscon CLOY, I looked her more calm that's why I assumed her into HB already, and about HB, He has known as calm person but after he closed to YJ, he has changed.. they are into each other and made it balance.. they look comfort one each other and it can be happened in a couple lover or married couple 

 

I am sorry it's just my opinion.. hopefully you're not upset.. as we know we are here for them

I like both so much and think they can learn so much from each other and have a great life.

 

i'm weirdly blushing reads your thought..

I guess such reposts were to defense YJ from being bashed from a few delulu HB fangirls. They complained why YJ just wore a RL dress even she looks stunning and gorgeous. (Media also agree)

 

Bashing YJ from a few jealous HB fans girls happened very often in the past which caused fan wars and negative vibes in every few pages. It gets much  better for a while and then happens again recently when YJ gets more and more beautiful and is loved by many.

 

I think HB fangirls did that because they have admitted that YJ has already stolen the heart of HB and admitted that YJ is getting more beautiful by now and loved by many people but them maybe 

 

Just positive thinking that they just wanted to give the best for HB so they wanted YJ to give her best since she is already with HB and what should they say when finally they found that their idol was wearing the same brand with YJ 

 

Gem is a gem, life is always rocky when you are a gem and YJ is a precious gem

And for anyone who says she was not successful on tv just because they only knew her now, please refer to my previous post about her tv shows ratings statistics (attached below), all of them are above average ratings and higher with one drama peaking up to around 30.9% audience share. She is just very low-key. I think the agency does not do a lot of personal PR for YeJin but it's probably her choice as well.

 

When I finished CLOY on Netflix this past March, I began to search and watch other SYJ and HB's movies and dramas. For SYJ, I have watched Alone in Love, Personal Taste, Shark and Something in the Rain, while for HB I've only watched Memories of the Alhambra. I have watched almost all of SYJ's movies since The Classic (her earlier movies are hard to find).

 

In my opinion, I think SYJ has much better movie projects than dramas. I enjoyed her movies very much more than the dramas (aside from CLOY, of course) Among her dramas, CLOY is the best, and by such a high bar. For me, it goes like this (at least for the dramas I've watched):

 

1. CLOY

2. Alone in Love

3. Something in the Rain

4. Shark

5. Personal Taste

 

I like AIL, but I didn't fall in love with it. I think I was distracted by the huge age gap between SYJ and the male lead the entire time to be truly in love with it, and considering they're supposed to be a young divorced couple. With SITR, the more the mother became a caricature villain, the worse the drama got. With Shark, the finale fell so flat, I was like "That was it, it's done?!" There was so much unresolved issues that the writer didn't finesse. And don't get me started on that out-of-nowhere liver disease of the sister that pushed the plot towards its flat ending. And Personal Taste - apologies to those who love it - was such an abomination. I couldn't get over its main premise that SYJ's character never had any idea that her boyfriend and best friend were cheating behind her back all those years, AND was able to actually plan a wedding and go through with it, without her knowing a single thing. 

 

That's why CLOY hit all the marks for me. Her chemistry with HB is just amazing, the story and writing is excellent and unpredictable (just when I thought it would zig, the story would zag in a good way), and all the supporting cast were incredible in their roles. It was an incredible drama that I was willing to overlook some of the minor plot holes (the parachute working again when YSR tried to escape, how Cho Cheol Gang was able to give a long speech to RJH even with all the gunshots in the major areas of his body, before eventually dying, when RJH and YSR were fully unconscious immediately after just one gunshot, and other small stuff).

 

It was just a very mature and well-executed love story. RJH and YSR were two of the most well-rounded characters that I've seen in a show in a long time, and that's including US shows and movies. RJH was protective of YSR, yet not chauvinistic and paternalistic. He recognized her strength and gave her space to fully realize her remaining goals. YSR was a powerful, strong woman who didn't need to put a man down in order to look good. She was also not a damsel-in-distress even during times when she was helpless and turned the situations around to her advantage. And both of them had inner vulnerabilities that played well to each other's strengths and weaknesses. They complimented each other well, they're just a perfect fit.

 

And even Seo Dan had a great redemption at the end, I think. She wasn't turned into the stereotypical evil "other woman" that I've seen a lot of times in other shows.

 

I hope SYJ's next drama (if her next project is such) will be on par with the quality of CLOY and not of her other dramas. 

 

P.S. I'm sorry I can't stop raving about CLOY. No show has hit me this way in such a long time!!!
