(OFFICIAL Real Life Couple) Song Joong Ki x Song Hye Kyo Thread

[Foodielove]

Already posted this on Soompi but I wanna share with you guys again ^ ^ 

 

 

This post gonna be really long so please bare with me.   

 

1.      I’ve been a fan of Song Hye Kyo for almost 12 years, knowing her since “Autumn in my heart†days and became her fan after Full House. SHK is always the most beautiful and charming Korean actress in my heart and I wish nothing but the best for her career and private life. Seeing her struggled love-life for years despite being so beautiful in and out, despite being super wealthy and famous, really saddened me a lot as a fan. For years, I’ve been looking for that “ONE MAN†who can truly make our goddess happy. Tbh I shipped Kyo with most of her partner cuz really, she just looked compatible with anyone, not to forget her male partners are all A++ actors who are extremely handsome, famous and all were very caring towards Kyo. And yet, only 2 of them could manage to step into Kyo’s heart (LBH & HB) but left her pain when they broke up. I shipped BiKyo really hard during Full House days cuz I loved how Kyo looked so cheerful around Rain and how much he adored her; but they never ended up together. I had really high hope for Hyun Bin and Kyo to last long but their relationship ended shortly…

 

UNTIL SONG JOONG KI HAPPENED!

 

For the first time in 12 years, I see a whole new Song Hye Kyo, which I highly think SJK is the man behind this.

 

2.      To be honest, I had never imagined myself shipping Song-Song. Although I really liked Joong Ki for being a very talented charming actor with good look, I thought he was too young for SHK (not just in term of age, look but also maturity and career). While SHK is very womanly and mature, I thought SJK was too boyish and not manly enough for her, he didn’t give off that “I can protect my woman†vibe to suit SHK. Upon hearing Song-Song being the leads for DOTS, I was actually really doubtful how their chemistry would turn out and I was afraid of the clear age gap… But DOTS turned out to be way better than I had expected and Song-Song chemistry really amazed me and the age gap wasn’t a problem at all. DOTS also changed my perception of SJK a lot. National Service really did him wonder. Still the youthful boyish SJK but a more mature and masculine version. Especially when being paired up with the feminine and petite SHK, SJK looks a lot manlier and protective as a man. Still after a few first episodes, I never thought of the possibility of Song-Song being an item despite their amazing chemistry. The way YSJ looked and glanced at KMY in DOTS is just so heart-fluttering and genuine that at some point it felt like it was indeed SJK looking at SHK wholeheartedly. Still, I thought they were just great actors with very natural acting.

 

Until I saw their real-life interactions and anecdotes about their off-camera relationship, I changed my mind and started to ship them unconditionally.

 

I think most people here already point out a lot of hints and thoughts on Song-Song relationship (THANK YOU ALL FOR SUCH AMAZING READS).  However I just wanna express how I feel about this couple

-          Tbh, I’m not concerned so much about their actual official relationship. Whether they are already at the “we’re so gonna get married†state or just “we’re getting to know more about each other†– only 2 of them know for sure. However, the fact that both of them (not just SHK nor SJK alone) have put time and effort into knowing each other to build whatever relationship (co-stars/friends/lovers…) they’re having – that means a lot to both of them.

 

For an actress who is always professional around her male co-stars, who is extremely reserved, guarded and insecure about her private life and love, who has been hurt multiple times and bad-mouthed by the netizens for dating her male partners, who is at the age of settling down for marriage and family, to openly hang out with SJK besides work, to openly admit they share many things in commons, to openly express her wish to know other aspects of his…..is such a huge step SHK is taking on.

 

For a rising actor who is on the way to the peak of his popularity and recognition, who has a big rising fanbase full of jealous young fangirls, who has his youth ahead of SHK and a future career not ready for settling down… to actually spend time and show great care to SHK who is no longer at the age to play around with relationships, it’s honestly brave of him.

 

In fact, knowing her for years and watching all the dramas she was in, I’ve never seen SHK got so much hate from the actors’ fangirls like this time for DOTS. It really hurt me as a fan to see so many hate comments downgrading SHK for her look, her age, her acting, her incompatibility with SJK… from SJK’s fangirls on various sites. Despite how much distance SHK has been putting away from SJK in public place, her professionalism still cant satisfy these jealous fangirls. I wonder how uncomfortable and angry SJK would be if he read such comments about SHK. But honestly I’m thankful to SJK for being so protective over her most of the time. His maturity and manners off screen really deserve a round of applause. He’s way mature than I expected from him.

 

Back to Song-Song relationship, whatever it is, I’m just glad that they are definitely more than just co-stars. SHK doesn’t have many close celeb friends, let alone close MALE celeb friends (YAI is probably the exception), which I think got a lot to do with her fear of dating rumours. So the fact that SHK let SJK step in her life in some way, it tells a lot about their relationship. I never heard about SHK hanging out with her co-stars in the past outside work (even with Hyun Bin, there were no dating proofs beside their agencies’ acknowledgements ...) So SJK is definitely an exception. If your speculations are not wrong, then SHK and SJK have personally known each other for about 2 years. 2 years is long enough for any kind of sustainable relationships: friends or lovers. If they weren’t interested in each other enough, would they still hang out side by side that many times even until lately?

 

I still have a lot of other things to say but my post is already too long. What I meant is that regardless of the actual status of their relationship, Song-Song are close and treasure each other a lot. They seem to understand each other well and somewhat ready to take their relationship to the next level. They’re definitely not playing around. So for now I truly hope that they’re taking thing slow but steady because their relationship really need a very very strong foundation.
