I could notice that some of the comments here have the same pattern of writing; which means it comes from the same person.
I think the idea that "monday couple" is one of the "special few things" that keeps the show popular is sick. I thought it was entertaining in the first few episodes, after that it became gross and bloated with hideous fan noise over who ships who. I think this article is refreshing amongst all the delusional vomit that tries to dictate how the show ends up instead of letting it have a little air.
When these kind of humorous romance ACTS were invented at the beginning of the show, it happened on its own and felt original and new. I love running man for how original it is but this other business just makes me want to throw up and I might be burnt out from the ludicrousness of it all. I agree with this post: Especially Monday couple fans. Most Monday couple fans are gary fans and they also hate jihyo which sounds ironic.
When ji hyo is with make guest the fans insult her but when gary is with female guest they say he gentleman!?! It is obvious that they are basis to gary, most of Monday couple fans at least. Time to do a self-check, blogger. Your post tries so hard to sound objective but you failed dearly.
Try to listen effectively to some of the negative feedback please. Even if you deny it, we all know you're biased towards gary, and against ji hyo. From ep1 till episode 80 ish when Ji Hyo's relationship was released that Gary has always been the one who poke love lines at Ji Hyo.
Even if Yunho was deemed as the foundation of their relationship, his stability had somewhat wavered. She has a lot of real personality and not the aegyo aegyo acting which some girls so clearly try to do on screen which comes off as fake sometimes. She was able to rest for a couple years and then come back to make several successful TV shows. It's a doomed love with tragic consequences. As much as running man has placed a 'stigma' and perception on her, she needs it. Most Monday couple fans are gary fans and they also hate jihyo which sounds ironic.
Around the th episode point Monday Couple started arising again i believe that was when Ji Hyo broke up with her bf. As RM progress you see that whenever the cast members line up it JiHyo and Gary was always next to each other. During one episode JiHyo said she was single outright to Gary without even a slight pause that shows that she indeed broke up with her BF. During the Taiwan interview with the RM cast members JiHyo said she missed Kang Gary who was in GuangZhou and that she would tell everyone that if there was something going on between Gary and JiHyo she would let her fans know.
I believe that there are feelings that JiHyo and Gary have for each other.
In the end my thoughts are that Gary and JiHyo would probably marry in the near future or would date but sadly would not be when running man is still alive and kicking. Maybe these two will surprise the entire world and announce that they are dating on the show. I never watched running man either. Is it worth to watch? Damn the only thing I get from reading this article is how great Gary is doing n how bad my dear jihyo is doing. I don't even know about this Monday couple thing and seldom watch running man. Know her from watching the dramas she's in.
Really fucking pissed off with how you critisised her. Let us all give support whatever happens to monday couple. Provide better supports and prayers rather than critisms. Just believe whatever you want to believe in In my opinion, Monday couple are fake. For me I don't hate gary or jihyo but I finds the fans resonsn for hating jihyo a little I think its best she do what joong ki did, Walk away for a while, focus and establish herselfbas an actress for her futures sake Gary was in a sense known in his field of hip-hop.
But even when he was in Leessang back then, the public barely knows him. Only when Leessang started to get some fame, that's when people noticed the duo. Even then people didn't know who they are. There was once when fans came to Gary's restaurant looking for Leessang.
They didn't know who Gary was, because back then Gil was a lot more popular and known because of Infinity Challenge. Gary was only started to be known through Running Man. I feel that it is through Monday Couple especially that got people to know about Gary. Without the Monday Couple, he may not be that much popular like now. Though, she was more known in the variety sector. She got noticed from Inkigayo and later Family Outing. It is right to say that she really did rise to popularity through Running Man. But it is true that both their careers have really gotten a lot of boost from the 'Monday Couple'.
Overall, I would say that without Running Man, Gary may not be known to most of the public. While for Song Ji Hyo, she is already known, but may not have as much fame as she would have now. The Monday Couple is an incredibly smart way of deflecting hate from the fan clubs of males Running Man guests.
She has a lot of real personality and not the aegyo aegyo acting which some girls so clearly try to do on screen which comes off as fake sometimes. The way she can adapt to being the only girl in Running Man is commendable. It is quite unfortunate that netizens keep wanting her with Gary and not accepting anyone else that she is with although i myself think that they would make a cute couple. I just sincerely wish her fanbase grows and grows and grows.
This is make the director are confused that ji hyo is dating with gary or not. Ji hyo can be friends with gary like her oppa.
Because the loveline also can damage ji hyo image as actress. I remembered when her dating news was announced, many netizens scolded her -. And then many people wished that she would break up with her boyfriend. I really don't know what will happen if she decides to get married. On the other hand, MC gave Gary a "good man" image, despite knowing he's a clubber and all.
Obviously MC has earned Gary many many fans as compared to Jihyo. I believe most MC fans are also Gary fans. As a fan of Jihyo myself, I like her because of her personality and all, not because of monday couple. I do believe that Song Ji Hyo should lie low with the whole MC thing until she can establish her own identity as an actress. I think MC has brought her to where she is and given her a lot of popularity which i'm sure she is grateful for - but I think it will hold her back from shining as an actress in the future.
The problem is most viewers seem to be unable to see her out of her MC girlfriend character and that is not very beneficial to her career in the long term. As a Song Ji Hyo fan, I would love so much to see her as a successful career woman and as a brilliant actress, rising to the unlimited potential she can be, rather than eternally recognised as the "MC girlfriend" - and nothing more. Admin of one of her fansite, thank you for finding my schedule interesting. LeeSsang's core fans, the ones that supported them even before RM doesn't really care about the loveline.
I watch RM coz its entertaining.. Sometimes its for kwang soo.. I don't really listen to leesang until recently I also trying to watch kwangso and jihyo drama.. I do hope kwangso n jihyo got more opportunity in acting n do really good.. I bet their time will come n while then they should do best in RM or MC. Does variety affect singers as much that their career face negative consequences? Not exactly, easy, look at Haha, look at KJK for close comparison and it isn't hard to find variety has helped them Yea I know of Turbo and the stuff about the fame of Turbo even before X-Men kind of thing.
They are just close examples, the difference on how variety affects the acting industry and singing industry is different all together. Of course, since the impact is different to begin with, whatever happens in the other field definitely without a doubt will affect the different fields in different ways. Not that much because of who that person is but a matter of what that person really do. Critical success and commercial success, success of their own terms in relative sense in different industries I'm looking at another comparison, same thing across industries What is the measure of success?
Fame, popularity, songs that are nice, films that are nice, great acting, box office hit, sold out tickets FF's success depending on what you are looking at and it can mean a lot of things, the box office can actually be considered a hit for one. Your argument magnifies the problem of MC on her, making it as though that's all she depends upon on the show. My point is the not yet success of her career does not relate to MC. Yes, she is a good person, like he is a good guy, she deserves more, a point I will not say no to, of course she does deserve more, of course she should be recognized for her acting.
Variety is secondary, it has always been since when has it not. To conclude my point for you, MC should be stopped, many reasons why it should yours don't hold that much, does MC affect her career as much as you assume, no, variety affects her acting career much much more. Should she do better as an actress, yes, of course.
It seems more interesting to me the fact that as busy as you so claim to be, of course humans slog their life out every day that you are making such a post. Actually my point is very simple, why make such a post with what seems to me a lack of understanding of your point of discussion. Perhaps I gotten your point wrong then, cause it does sound clear to me in simple English this is what you mean: No the support of KG being with whoever, or SJH being with whoever in a project doesn't seem to be as affected as you seem to find.
JiHyo's problem has existed even way before Running Man, having liked her even before Frozen Flower not lying here, first liked her for a line she said in Goong and I can recite it literally when she was in the taxi with Shin whether you believe it or not it does not matter, but of cause her antagonist role in dramas led her to having antis something I recognize as well , I truly do believe that she has problems of her own that needs overcoming, does Monday Couple really play that much responsibility in her career, well no, not exactly, not as much as you assumed.
People are willing to accept her with others, provided that the script is good, as of now for her lead roles in dramas or movies, the script has not been as good as I would have hoped for.
If now a good script were to be coming in, despite the fact that a guy other than KG acts as a male lead, would the audience be reluctant to accept it because of the "Oh no, KG is going to be heartbroken"-thing , no, NO! Same goes, the fact that KG writes his own songs and all differs from JiHyo like what I have been saying, the difference of career, what now?
Is JiHyo going to write her own script next Yes!
