Rethinking...Leaving the wonkyu fandom

Hi all,

If you have a twitter account, you must have come to know about Siwon's incident. What happened made me rethink and ask myself if I could continue to be in this fandom. I came into the fandom purely because of Wonkyu, not Siwon, not Kyuhyun. I liked their interactions and enjoyed their closeness. When he shared his belief as he did and he has every right to, I simply cannot agree to it and coupled with my inability to reconcile with his words and actions, I was momentarily stunned. I am not sure if I can continue to write as before, knowing that he has that sort of opinion, towards something that I wrote about with passion.

I believe in equality and inclusivenss in society. And that includes race, gender and religion.

I write about wonkyu bcuase I love them but to think that Siwon is against that sort of relationship, it is really quite an irony.

But I never regretted getting into this fandom because so many people, yes you, and you and you...encouraged me. And I have read so many wonderful fics as well.

So at this moment, I will stop writing and am contemplating deleting my account. I will let you know once I have sorted out my feelings and thinking.

Thank you once again for indulging me and loving my fics.

I really hope that you won't delete your account or stories... There are many people who like your stories including me. Besides, who knows that maybe you'll come back and continue... Even though you decided to stop, I think many people will still like to read your stories and these stories are your memories, why delete all your sweet memories? =D Fighting!

When Siwon RT that, I agree that he did not think twice... he didn't realize it will contradict his actions on and off stage. But after his apology and said that he just supported THE PLURALITY OF OPINIONS.. I think he doesn't mean that he entirely was against it... or to that extent. He regret and realized it and may have thought that he has hurt Kyu (and their ship) so he deleted it. I respect, though, how you feel but please do not delete your work... begging you to let us have this memory.

i can understand what you feeling.
but please reconsider about deleting all your work.

at least you can delete it when siwon or kyuhyun married the real girl in the real world.

i'm sorry you are thinking of deleting your works ! i know it must be hard to have siwon himself not only break his wonkyu fandom but also emotionally hurt many people; however i think it's better if you don't delete your works or your account ! these are after all fictions, works of art and you do that art pretty amazingly , it would be a shame to lose you and your lovely stories . i hope you would reconsider; otherwise i wish you luck in every thing you do ^^

Sadly I knew Siwon belif was too strong, but this can't chance my passion for wonkyu couple in my imagination .I hope you'll rethink about your decision because you write beautiful stories!

First: I agree, and I really really wish Siwon didn't hold such beliefs, but they are his own opinions and viewpoints, and I will respect that. Also, I really appreciated your writing because it was focused more on WonKyu's interactions rather than on one or the other, so thank you!
If you decide not to keep writing, it's your choice. However, you have already written such lovely stories, and I feel like it would be a pity if they were deleted. Would you be willing to archive them somewhere, please? Something like AO3's orphaned stories account, perhaps?

I know this is a difficult issue to address...and sometimes celeb have no idea how their actions kind&pure have such effects on ppl. I truly believe siwon means no harm to anyone. He just got his foot in his mouth. And this action hurt manyyyyy... I'm sorry to read ur thoughts on his action and respect ur reaction.

I simply wish u will not delete ur account. Not for anyone but for urself, the time, hours, emotions, joy, smiles, happiness u've spent here. Its part of u. Please dont cahnge or delete just cos a someone made a split second judgement that he may or may not realise the effect.

I loved everything u wrote and the interaction u had...not with kyu or siwon....but simply with wonkyu fans (me one of them). I hope u'll come back one day. Keep smiling doll. Lifes too short to not ^___^

I know the feeling and I was so down when he retwted, to be honest I was ashamed of my user name to think that Siwon will retwt such thing, but then again he apologized but even with the apology I still feel somehow, but hey I will still be in the fandom because Wonkyu is life to me, so Dear we do this for us and our happiness so if been in the fandom makes you happy please stay but if not then live but I will miss you so much cause you are one of my favourite Author, please stay for us.

what happened with siwon's yesterday was surely got much affect and passion for everyone who love him esp wonkyu shipper.
I know it was not easy and sensitive issue. But so far i love them no matter what.
I also thankfully far away you had been make beautiful fanfic about wonkyu.
No matter what is your decision i know you have been think abt your decision.
I hope you always happy and healthy.
Thank you for your support and love to wonkyu .
I LOVE YOU <33333

You know you have my support no matter what your decision will be.
IMO Siwon is reiterating his stand in the face of his enlistment, I think we saw way too many times how mean he can get when he gets emotionally unstable.
But I understand how you feel when the wonkyu ship is rocked by its own captains, I went through many such phases myself and threatened to jump overboard and swim to shore. I guess I've learnt to write for myself rather than wonkyu. For the many fics we came up with, it is easily interchangable with other fandoms so I am proud that our ideas are just as universal as any writers on this planet.
