etcetera...

So, there are news article about the dating rumor again but now, its worse.

“We were really close friends until the scandal rumors, and it became unnecessarily awkward.”

That is such a bold statement, that I felt uncomfortable after reading. Mixed emotions maybe? Bias aside, I think one shipper’s greatest wish is for their OTP to continue being friends even though they are not together. Right? Okay. I’ll stop here. I want to talk about the things that I realized after this rumor.

I’ve always believed that my OTP’s greatest is the gift of friendship. And I really thank them for that. They started out as awkward and totally opposite pair, but they have grown to be a beautiful pair of friends along with their unnies and dongsaengs even to their company members. Oh how beautiful the friendship that they have is. And for all we know, this is not just to please the fans or for publicity. They don’t need it, what we see from these group of friends is what we get, or even more. If it wasn’t for that one cold awkward meeting… we won’t have this burning friendship we see today.

That’s the shipper’s greatest wish right? I’m just happy that after 3 long years, we have CNSD and SMFNC. YS might not happen (BUT I DO HOPE THEY DO!), but at least they have each other as friends. WGM for YS has ended years ago, and there’s almost no reason to act on stage just to please the fans, but look at them now? Where did all the awkwardness go?

The gogumas might be a pretty-well-known-super-active-shipping-fandom, but they (Y&S) are not obliged to please us. We are a pretty active fandom, we are there wherever and whenever and if it really bugs/hurts/intimidates Y&S, they could’ve done something or plead to us stop whatever it is that we’re doing that might have hurt them or what.

They know better, if they’re friends, they’re friends, if they’re dating, they’re dating, if they’re not, they’re not. Y&S have already matured, especially in this indefinite and sometimes cruel entertainment industry. They respect the fans, they know that they can’t help if you support them with another person, but if it’s enough, it’s enough. All they need is respect and a sound and peaceful private life. The friends that they have now are a big part of them, especially their true industry friends since they can relate to each other really well. It is rare for idols to meet real good friends in the industry, and you don’t want them to lose friends right? Right.

All I’m saying is, non-shipper, other-ship-shipper, or what, the important thing here is respect. No one wants to be called a big-fat-liar by his/her own fans right?

/The gogumas are celebrating the 1000 Days of YONGSEO, and hopefully Yong and Hyun are celebrating too! Haha~ The twitter world was filled with Yongseo-memories and dedication tweets last night and I was teary-eyed reminiscing with my fellow gogumas. If you want to read those tweets, just check the hashtag: #1000용서/

Who would’ve thought that it has already been 1000days since fate brought Seohyun and Yonghwa together. Two people, though they’re in the same industry, they belong to two different worlds. One is the precious maknae of the nation’s girl group, and the other one is the leader of a rookie band who wants to let the whole world listen to their music. One is the prim and proper girl, and the other one is the humorous and ambitious (in a good way) boy.

While a lot of their respective fans strongly disagreed to MBC’s decision of pairing the two of them together, they pushed through with their virtual marriage. Yes, they were awkward, they fought, they lacked skinship, and eventually had to part ways and end their virtual marriage.

But their virtual marriage left us a lot of lessons, beautiful memories, and a song. Lessons that we can apply in our lives, beautiful memories that can always keep us smile and fall in love all over again, and a song that will forever be a sweet melody to our ears and hearts.

I’ve always been vocal about thanking both Yong and Hyun before, but today, on their 1000th day, I want to thank them for what I think is the greatest gift that they’ve given us… THE GIFT OF FRIENDSHIP.

You might want to ask me why, but I’m pretty sure that the gogumas already know the reason why I chose friendship.

Those 51 episodes of YongSeo <3  gave us a glimpse of the birth of friendship between to groups, CNBLUE and SNSD. SNSD’s the really popular senior girl group while CNBLUE’s the rising junior boy band. We saw how their friendship started and bloomed. The friendship between FNC and SM artists, and we all the friendship between idols who are from different agencies.

And we all know that this is not a “for-publicity-purposes” only, we all saw how Sunny, Hyo, Jungshin, and Yonghwa interacted on a variety show, how Yoona just randomly shouts “I miss you Yong seobang”, and even Wookie and Minmin’s tease during the Hey You and Twinkle promotions, and a whole lot more.

That’s not all though, aside from the friendship of these idols, I’m also thankful for the friendship between the gogumas.

Thanks to YONGSEO, they inspired a lot of people, and brought them together. Gogumas from all over the world, are united and became friends. I am a witness to this, a lot of gogumas became really good friends even if they live in different countries and continents and even if they speak different languages. There are a lot of different fan clubs and fan cafes, but one thing is for sure, we all belong in Go-chun.

Go-chun feels like belonging to real family, because we really are. We are one big and great family, and we are always here for each other. We share this bond that most people can’t understand- it’s the GOGUMA LOVE.

And this is what I pray, that for the next 1000 days, the friendship between the idols and between the gogumas will never die and will continue to grow stronger.

HAPPY 1000 days YongSeo! We promise that even if its 5000days, 10000 days, you will still be in our hearts. Cheers!

Have you ever loved a live performance so much that everytime you watch it, you start to tear up and the all the feelings seem so fresh? That even if you watch it almost everyday or listen to its mp3 version, you’re still not getting tired of it?

I DID. Yes, and that performance is Yongseo’s Banmal Song performance in Niigata.

Today marks the performance’s 1^st anniversary. And you all know that I seriously have a deep connection with this performance.

WHY? It’s my ticket to Go-chun. Read: Banmal Song: A Life Changing Song?

People may find it weird that me (and the whole Go-chun) is celebrating an anniversary for a mere performance BUT, this is not and ordinary performance.

First,

you wouldn’t just witness a collaboration between two huge and popular idols from different companies, right? And do I have to mention that they are SNSD’s Seohyun and CNBLUE’s Yonghwa? Do I? I know you already got my point.

Second,

it was a reunion for two love birds. They were once a virtual couple and a reunion opportunity like this is rare. For their fans who followed their career before, during, and after WGM, this was a rare moment that they just have to savor every bit of it.

Last but not the least, 

THEY PERFORMED BANMAL SONG FOR PETE’S SAKE!

HOW AWESOME IS THAT FOR YONGHWA THAT THE SONG HE WROTE FOR MONTHS WAS FINALLY PRODUCED, AND HE GETS TO PERFORM IT IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS OF FANS AND…

PERFORM IT WITH SEOHYUN…

THE GIRL WHO MADE BANMAL SONG/FOR THE FIRST TIME LOVERS POSSIBLE…

THE SONG WAS EITHER A GIFT OR A REQUEST YONGHWA MADE FOR SEOHYUN…

HIS BUIN… HIS GOGUMA PRINCESS… HIS YEOSHIN… HIS INSPIRATION… SEO JOO HYUN.

[Sorry for the all caps. I just had to emphasize the last part.]

To my fellow gogumas, happy anniversary!

DAMN THESE IRRITATING PATHETIC HAMBURGERS.

NOW, COME TO MAMA~

IMMA EAT YOU ALL.

HYUN MAY NOT LIKE IT…

I’D EVENTUALLY DIE…

BUT AT LEAST I’D DIE… PROTECTING YONGSEO.

HAHA. May masabi lang. But seriously, I still can’t give up eating hamburgers. Whyyyyyyy :/
