Let's Nip This Right In The Bud

Let's all be rational.

I turned my phone on at about 1:30 this afternoon as my school day was ending. I got a text message from a friend on here (she knows who she is).

It said "Oh my God..."Breaking: Block B's Zico and Hwayoung dating!" from allkpop. She told me she refused to accept this, because of me most likely.

Now, I appreciate people contacting me and asking about how I am, I really do love that you guys understand my feelings.

But let's get real here.

The article specifically states that it's still just a rumor. So the title "BREAKING" is a bit of a misnomer (for those of you who don't know what that means, it's like false advertisement...or it's telling you something that's untrue), because no where does it say that either party has confirmed this. It says that Stardom is denying this to be true, and although I acknowledge that agencies aren't always the most honest in their declarations, it says that an "anonymous employee" has reported this. Come on. Really? The anon who is coming forward with this info...do you really think that an employee would run the risk of purposely exposing this information? Block B is still fighting through the February controversy, and are under constant public scrutiny. Calm your beans.

Granted, there's plenty a possibility for this to be true. The two do know each other, I'm assuming well, considering the Ryu twins have taken pictures with the Woo brothers' mother in the past. So believe me, I'm in no way in denial of what MIGHT be true.

But, let's take a look at the word "might." Also known as the operative word in this equation. It's possible to go either way.

Personally, I'm that guy who always gives the benefit of the doubt. So in trial, I'm that person to think that someone MIGHT be innocent until proven otherwise. Hypothetically speaking.

So if these rumors are true, what's the big effing deal? The two aren't hurting anyone by any means. They're two grown individuals who each have the right to make their own decisions. My (former) T-ara bias and my Block B bias...what's wrong with that?

And if these rumors aren't true, everyone's getting all hyped up and worked up for nothing. Complaining about it certainly isn't going to make it go away.

I appreciate the chivalry my fellow fans have for "JiNi." And I'm very, very thankful to have loving friends who are concerned for my happiness. But let's reevaluate my feelings. I adore, admire, respect, love Zico. And if he loves someone else (whoever that person may be), then all the best to him. He is entitled to any shot at happiness he can get. To get to see him happy and healthy is something that makes me one of the happiest kids on the planet. 

Yes. This could be true, and people could have a reason to actually be a bit discouraged. But either way, it should be a win-win. Because if Zico's happy, shouldn't (in theory) his fans be even more happy?

Like me. I had someone ask me how I was so calm. Well, number 1, I think it's still just a rumor. And number 2, I understand that I'm just a fan. I understand that the idols are bound to date, whether or not we know is a different story. But I respect Zico's right as a man to fall for whomever he chooses.

This doesn't change thing one about me. I'm still going to love Zico, I'm sure I always will. But I'm going to let this rumor either fizz out and prove to be untrue or take it's course into reality. Everyone needs to calm down and get along ^^ ♥

My initial thought when I read the article about this rumor was you but then I saw that it was just a rumor.
And then I thought a little more and figured from our conversations that you didn't seem like the scary obsessive type of fan that would make it her life's mission to make sure that Zico doesn't ever find happiness.
I was kind of shock with all the rumors of idols dating coming out recently though.
In the past week, I think I've seen around 5 idols involved in a rumors of dating (not that it's a bad thing)
Idol's mostly make me happy from the music they create which guides me through the toughest times in my life so I think fans should have the ability to respect their private lives and wish them luck if and when they decide to be in a relationship (even if it's not with myself :D) x

I don't understand WHY people need to involve themselves into idol's lives.
off! They aren't there to be stalked by oceans of ed up girls and the media, they're doing their job, which is entertaining you, not providing a target for you.
I personally hope he isn't dating her, simply because I can't picture dating idols. doesn't count...
Like Junhara? I still can't wrap my head around it, but I don't really give a sh*t about it.
Zico is so ing HOT though...you turned me into a fan. Him and Kris...the only not so muscular idols I would totally take to bed XD
And who's Hayoung anyway...? I feel like the girls aren't as easy to remember as the boys, unless they have unique names like Bom or Narsha. SNSD doesn't count, they're only popular because SM puts them in everyone's faces, and Jessica tries too hard to get attention on herself, and the group...sadly, it works =____=
B*tch.
Anyway LoL...girls, and a handful of boys, leave the hot, talented celebrities alone, they entertain you, but that doesn't mean their lives are now striped of privacy and stuff, it's just sad.
