maybe the weird Japanese woman fetish he had caught up to him 🤷‍♀️

Don’t know how the poor girl could stand it from day 1

 

[daesuki]

honestly wasnt really expecting this. best wishes to the both of them

He kept her getting dragged and shamed in the media because he could. not. stop. talking about how they were dating.
Not once did Momo ever acknowledge it

I saw someone claim that but I saw other people claim that it wasn’t him who brought it up but other people who did. I don’t know which is true because I haven’t seen his parts though.

Sad I guess kinda got used to that they were celeb couple but it's not like follow either one of them

Most of the time it was him. One time his friend said Nayeon looked like a man though. That was a fun day

That’s sad.. I hope Heechul and Momo can both find happiness.

 

[RandAlThor]

Relationships are hard i find it more than annoying how happy ppl are to see them fail.

ppl they supposedly care about found happiness and they give f all and just want control.

 

[yeji]

I just hope both are happy

That says more about other people than him, tho, let's be honest.

If it were another "more acceptable" relationship (no age gap, no power imbalance, two popular idols), except one was freer (because that's what it is. He was free(r) to talk about it) to talk about the relationship and did so...because it's their relationship, nothing to be ashamed of and something he's probably happy with, then...he can? People dragging HER because he's mentioning/references his relationship with her? Yeah, that's not on him unless he started getting real personal in sharing what they do when they're together, which, to my knowledge, he didn't.

Now, as for conjectures on his personality or character, I have nothing to say on that because I don't know dude (re: "Japanese fetish" as I see on this thread or whatever else fans have come up with). But toxic people being toxic (fans and non-fans) ain't on him, it's on them.

Oh well

To an extent. People are responsible for what they comment but if you see something you're doing is consistently bringing down the image of someone else, especially someone who's job relies heavily on her image, and continue to do it, responsibility does fall on you as well. If Heechul was bearing most of the hate comments and still continuing to make jokes, it's a different story.

Heechul has been in the industry for over a decade and a half. He knows how women who date are treated, especially ones that date older men. At least with Sulli and Choiza, she was putting it out there herself as well as him.

But at least he finally got to prove he isn't gay or whatever

At some point, people have to decide how much of their lives will be dictated by others.

We rag on KNetz often, and it changes based on the target of their ire.

Maybe little by little things will change, things will become more normalized, and it won't be done in silence.

And that last line? Is that something he was worried about? Because it's not something that has impacted his career in any way, but again, I don't get too far into the personal aspects so it's whatever. Leaves a bad taste, tho.

I just don't see how throwing your girlfriend out to get hate is all that progressive or changing things. This was a couple that did generally have support publicly and fandomwise in Korea too until Heechul blew it.

I think there are couples that are changing boundaries in the idol industry whether it be respecting their privacy (Jennie/GD, Chaeyoung & her boyfriend, somewhat Daniel Jihyo) and ones that normalized public relationship (Sulli/Choiza, Hyuna/Dawn, Taeyang and Hyori). This...was something else all together. If both sides had kept it private or even were open about, I don't think this backlash and rejoice would have been as severe.

Either way, it's over now and I hope Momo is happy and the negativity towards her ends here. Twice has one more year left and it'd be nice it's a lot less dramatic than 2020 was

 

[Tickita]

Well, all the best to both of them

 

[Panda]

Well.. I guess it's good for people to know?
