Princess Sunggyu Thread

[dopamine]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I said it about a month ago, but sometimes I feel like stuffing Sunggyu in my suitcase and just stanning him on my own by myself where others won't make me feel bad about biasing him for once. As a fan I feel like I can't be happy for Sunggyu without feeling bad for someone else. What's more is I'm supposed to just take it when people make passive aggressive comments about him? Most Sunggyu stans are OT7 fans who talk about the other members just as much as we talk about Sunggyu if not more (myself being one of those people). I feel like the only reason we're here in this thread in the first place is because we're being pushed out of the Infinite thread by people who don't want to hear about Sunggyu at all because they feel he already "he gets everything, he's the Woollim princess, everybody is biased towards him, blah blah blah, and it's not fair to the rest". I would much rather celebrate Infinite as the group with everybody else on the Infinite thread instead of hiding out here, but it's come to the point where I'm almost afraid to be there just because I might say something that will make somebody else angry. There are a lot of "Inspirits" who have been saying unpleasant things about Sunggyu lately, some of whom have surprised me, and I just don't know who to trust anymore. As a Sunggyu stan, I can't voice any of these feelings of mine because that would make me biased and inconsiderate of the other members and the fan's hardships because "they have it a lot worse". What I'd like to tell those people is that at least they are not being made to feel like outcasts, and at least they can band together and complain all they want in the Infinite thread because "it's their right to do so". But Sunggyu stans can't do that without looking like the bad guys. Sunggyu can't be confident without coming across as a jerk to the other members. We can never win.

This is the best.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Infinite thread is one hot mess rn

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, leaving this here for future references.

 

 

Look at how arrogant and conceited Sunggyu is. How could he say such a thing?

Since last night I've been in a perpetual state of almost crying my heart out.

 

I can't take much more of this. For so long I've acted as peace maker and tried to be strong about the negativity, especially when it concerns Sunggyu, but I'm at my breaking point.

I don't even know where to turn to but here...

I feel like people don't understand or see how much subtle hate he gets and are just passing it off as people complaining about Woollim, but that's not it at all. I went back to the Ifnt thread to see how things were going this morning, and just when I thought things had cooled down someone says something about Sunggyu that completely shattered everything for me again, and with the exception of one or two people nobody else bothered trying to defend him, and what's more someone actually believed those words without having the actual receipts to form an opinion for themselves. It's like people are trying so hard to make SG look like a genuinely bad person and then try to justify themselves by saying that they don't hate him, but their actions speak louder than words. 

 

People like that are why I can't go back there. I just can't.

 

Sorry for being a drag, guys, but I honestly don't have anybody at all to talk to about this. Nobody at all.

I'm literally shaking. After I read your guys' comments I locked myself in my bathroom and had a good cry for the first time since I decided in 2011 that I was going to be strong and ignore all the hate that Infinite gets. Your encouragement means more to me than you guys know.

 

When I got into Infinite it was one of my happiest memories. I'd never liked something so much as I liked the boys, and I was head over heels for them (I still am). But then they got popular and I couldn't understand for the life of me why so many people were saying bad things about them and doubting them, and saying nasty things that I would never in a million years dream of saying about somebody else. I think I was more sensitive because this was the first time I loved a group like that. I didn't know how to deal with fandom wars and hate, I'd never experienced it before. It bothered me SO much that I let it all affect me that I would get angry with myself and start sobbing out of frustration. I was in my first semester of College back then and I was already under so much stress, so I told myself I couldn't continue like that so I taught myself to be stronger, to put up with the senseless bashing and to just ignore it because like many of you said here, there was no point in paying them any attention, it wouldn't affect Infinite whatsoever so why should I let it affect me? The only issue with that was that I only trained myself to put up with outside hater comments, trivial comments, and it helped that I had the Inspirit fandom to count on for support. That's why it breaks my heart that now all I see on a daily basis is Inspirits doing the bashing instead. Bashing the members. I never prepared myself for that. I never thought I'd see the day. I defended this fandom. For four years I preached about how great Inspirits were because the ones I knew were the best people I had ever met. For four years I defended all of the Infinite members equally, and I trusted the rest of the fandom to do the same because that's what we were good at. Those of you who have seen me on other sites these past few years know that I was like a wall, people couldn't say anything about bad about Infinite without crossing paths with me. Inspirits were the only fandom I knew that loved everybody in the group the same. And now? Now it's not like that at all. I feel like my years long mission to become a stronger person has crumbled before my eyes, that I'm back right where I started, here trying desperately to hold onto the pieces and put them back together in vain. If I used to get upset because of the hate and the bashing, today I am upset because I feel like a part of me has given up. That I don't want to do this anymore. That I want nothing to do with this fandom or even Infinite themselves if all that's going to bring me are bad times. I don't find any aspect of following them enjoyable anymore, despite my still loving them, and that's what kills me the most.

Thank you all for responding to me. I really needed to talk to somebody, and the people in this thread are always so kind and understanding. 

I think I'm going to take a break for as long as I can for now to clear my mind a bit and come back a less sensitive person. I don't know when I'll be back, but when I do return this will be the first place I'll come to.

For some odd reason I went from 1-100 in the mood meter some time between yesterday and today. I'm feeling pretty good so I just dropped in to say "Hey".

 

Hey guys 

 

Before I go, how great is it that Sweetune's producers still support Infinite even when they didn't write any of the new songs?  

just goes to show what a good relationship they have.

Hello everyone , I am a new fan of Kim Sungkyu .

 

Hello there :3

 

I was gonna let someone else welcome you in because I'm supposed to be on my hiatus, but it's been 20 minutes and no one has responded to you yet.

So welcome!

[dopamine]

I left a comment in that thread and I'm not sorry at all. 

 

I'm not going to stand for this anymore. 

[dopamine]

Dopamines comment in that thread said it all, let's end this convo with that. We'll just get more aggravated by it and it won't change a thing. We vented and it's good now if you ask me ^^ 

 

 

At least some of us understand this concept.

 

We know when to stop at the very least, which is more than we can say about those other people.

 

Bashing members isn't going to change a thing, it never does, it only makes things worse. Once or twice was enough, but to repeatedly keep doing it is overkill.

I'm waiting for this HD 

 

 

There's this video:

So here are some of my old tumblr rant posts that I found that I think apply to the fandom these days as well. These are from years back, it's scary how so much has changed but at the same time a lot has stayed the same.

Does this sound familiar?

 

Posted: December 2012

This one I think applies to the Ifnt thread. I wish the people there could think more like this.

This one is just good advice overall.

Happy 300th page!

I haven't seen his WGM cuts. Are they cute? I want to ship him with someone new lol.

 

Plot twist: what if they are a planned couple and WGM were testing the waters with this episode, since they have tried scouting him before? 

I just realized the girl is a 92-er. 

[dopamine]

She's three years younger than Sunggyu. When Sunggyu & Seyoung win Limbo game and eating the ice-drink. The MC commented that it as seems they are watching We Got Married with them both. But that is only shown very shortly.

 

Tbh, I don't like WGM, but I wouldn't mind him being on the show if the person he is with is someone like Lee Seyoung. I think Sunggyu could learn a lot about girls, he's very clueless.

[dopamine]

I think that even if that particular story isn't true, it doesn't change the fact that Sunggyu himself said that he'll go people watching when he's feeling lonely and still not get any satisfaction from that either.

 

Sunggyu is a lonely person, lives far away from his family, has few celebrity friends, is in charge of a team of younger members who may not always understand him at times, etc...

 

As an idol, a leader, and a hyung he has taken on so many responsibilities and has become synonymous with the word 'dependable' but after a while dependable people can also be taken for granted.

Now you guys are making me worried.

 

 

By the way, I was reminded of I Need You when I read that pann post

I was looking back at Sunggyu interviews and there are so many quotes that stood out to me, but this one in particular captured my attention.

 

 

 If INFINITE is the fruit of obsession, Kim Sunggyu is the fruit of sorrow.

This is gonna sound totally vain, but I sometimes only post so I can see my Sunggyu dp

It's unfair how attractive he is.

gyu's noona??

 

the chin shape and the cheekbone when she smiles look like sunggyu

 

I thought this one was his noona. Or are they the same person? They kinda resemble each other. Even the three boys look related.

[dopamine]

I think that one is his aunt because some people have said that the little kid that Gyu is holding onto is his little cousin.

 

 

But wasn't it said that Gyu's sister was a dentist? From the photos on her instagram it doesn't look like she is one. She seems more artsy and travelled.

[dopamine]

 

do you think she is sunggyu cousin who works at kbs as a reporter?? she seems like it

 

Nah, I saw his reporter cousin's photo. She's a bit older.

[dopamine]

maybe it's also another cousin of his. She looks a bit like the cousin who carries 2 kids that look like sunggyu 

 

Maybe those two are sisters. That would make sense.

So our guest is right. Maybe she's really the sister of sunggyu other cousin. But wow, she looks glamorous

 

Sunggyu's family seems to be really well off. A lot of successful people. I talked about this in the Infinite thread before, but it's no wonder his family opposed to him being a singer. With his relatives working in broadcasting, top Korean companies, his sister being a dentist, etc, his family probably expected a lot from him, especially since he did well in school.
