True...i still don't believe that he even knows what loving her means...he never asks her any meaningful questions or tries to connect emotionally...he says he loves her and wants her back, but now the contract with barakin is still pending so he needs to delay a divorce at least three months...there is always something else in the background that is important to him like contracts and power, so i don't get the feeling that he sees her for who she is and can really appreciate her

i also feel that way - because until then the story was coherent and i was totally into it and suddenly they made like a slapstick episode which i didn't find funny...it completely threw me off

i finished the Story of Kunning Palace today and i can only agree to all the points you made. While the actors portrayed their characters really well and kudos to that - but the love story between Xie Wie and Ning'er left a bitter after taste...i can't count the times i said "whoa that is toxic" while watching. And yes- most of the characters were toxic, but to wrap the main leads into a nice bow and call it "Love" was too much.

That statement "If i go back, i'll make that choice again" - that was hard to hear.
Queen of tears maybe wouldn't have had that kind of impact if he had admitted to a relationship back then... a lot of shipping went on because of the good chemistry.
I heard that many artists even have contracts that forbid them to date in general which made me go "huh what?"
That must be so hard to watch when your partner is shipped with another person and you can't say anything (which they are surely aware of when being an actress and dating an actor)- but still...
Fame over everything... and he said he chooses fame every time (ok with other words but still)

I get that you're pissed that someone tries to stay neutral and yes there is evidence that points to the relationship starting that early, but there is still no 100% proof- and who said she didn't consent to anything that happened...so why bashing someone for wanting more evidence...that doesn't mean that someone wouldn't react to someone being assaulted in front of their eyes...i mean come on...this is harsh

Actors and stars as such -"have" to protect their image they built at all costs, all their contracts and the money that comes with it. I think that's where it gets tricky...they will always have someone that tries to throw them under the bus and i think they also do that to save themselves...but in many instances they can't act on their free will to do or say things they want...they are bound by so many things- not that i'm defending him for anything that happened so far...and i think as an actor or actress, when you're that popular, how can you not be narcissistic to a certain point - depends on how you handle that.....because you should know all that won't last forever.
I still think they were dating earlier than what he now admitted to and that there is a lot more to the story that we know so far...
And i'm sad that she had to take her own life and only then things started to come out- how hard it must been for her to make such a decision.
And also Sulli's brother adding to the controversy about the movie Real and how they handled that...
There must be going on so much shit in general that "We" never get to know about, because people are being silenced by the "Big Players"

We will never know what kind of person he really is ,and i'm neither condemning nor supporting him...i've followed the witch- hunt for the last few weeks...and some things still urk me and other things make sense to me...
i think it's hard for an actor or singer per se to admit to a relationship in general - with all the contract clauses that exist, the shipping of specific couples and all the promotion for a new drama, and the bashing when your favourite actor suddenly is in a relationship (i was thinking of the backlash lee jae wook got some time ago).
And sure, i'm curious what the outcome of the court ruling will be in the future, and who has what kind of additional evidence.
Even if he was really lying and is now just trying to save face, the evidence will decide, and that itself is not an easy thing i think, because who keeps messages and pics for such a long time...what if he is lying through his teeth but the substancial evidence is missing and he wins.
It's so hard to believe that her family would only be after money, when they know who they are going up against and the lawsuit is massive now moneywise...something you will never pay off in this lifetime as a "normal" person. (and i mean her family by that).
He had to keep up his image the last few years, like every actor or singer, and i don't think that all of them are innocent angels... everything you do or say get's pin-pointed in a direction and as soon as you do anything against a contract the repercussions follow immediately- and i mean this is crazy itself in general...

I'm really torn between the evidence that is out so far and what i think could have really had happened...because some stories are really so crazy and manipulative that you wouldn' t want to believe it to be true...
