Osiyo to all my MinShin friends!
It is so cold here that when I am outside my fingers feel like they will get frostbite....and we had a storm hit us with an inch of ice first and so far 6 inches of snow on top of the ice....sigh.....winter is really starting to grate on my last nerve....
I need to finish back reading but thought I should post this first.....
I have been talking to Lee's mom this morning and I just wanted to pass on something she said....and I don't know if I should be excited or not.... I think I should but am afraid to be because I don't want to jinx anything hahaha
Lee's mom said this morning that her friend at the publishing company (the leading news source in South Korea - not sure of name of newspaper and magazines they publish but don't think I should print names if she tells me cause it might cause her friend headaches if other ships start complaining to the company? what do you think?)
Anyway Lee's mom said her friend said that the publishing company thinks Min Ho and Shin Hye are meeting secretly and are in the beginning stages of dating. They also think they started the beginnings of a relationship while in Los Angeles and that they actually began a real "dating" type relationship after the "closet kiss". haha ahhh that closet kiss...and some said it looked painful, too forceful, that Shin Hye didn't like it, etc etc - they just wish that were true.....they would give their eye teeth to be in the same situation.....
Lee's mom's friend also said that all the women at the publishing company were happy about a Min Ho and Shin Hye match and said most of the men that would talk about couples were envious of Min Ho but were actually excited that these 2 (whom most all of Korea loves - her words) are together as a couple.....
Her friend also said that they feel very protective of them and don't want them to end their relationship because of over zealous paparazzi ..... so if a news publishing company wants to protect them then that means they are really wanting these 2 to get together ....maybe?
She said that there were a lot of foreign free lance photographers and journalist that were trying to catch them together b/c it will mean big money to that person if they catch it on film - sounds like their lives are going to get more complicated? but I think it sounds like most Koreans will try to protect them and shield them from this type of invasion of their privacy? maybe?
so I don't know what all this means for sure and is only secondhand info but Lee's mom's friend would have a real finger on what is happening in South Korea and if people there are excited about them and thinking that they are a couple or suspect they are a couple....then I more inclined to think that their relationship has moved farther along than we thought....
