Firstly no hate and big congratulations to park shin hye and tae joon for both marriage and the baby..
Now, let me just point out how good of a reaction this couple is receiving after this news.. and you know what, good, great for them actually, this is how things should be
(and yes I know they have different standards for actors from a long time ago, but it's still irritating to see all this happening)
but what pisses me off is how this reaction is so different from when an Idol, namely here Chen got the complete opposite reaction from people.
Both were shotgun weddings? Yes.
yet they made fun of chen for not using protection and never even considered anything.. even comparing him to criminals
but now they are praising tae joon for taking responsibility.
Both relationships were long time? Yes
just like shinhye and Taejoon, chen and his wife were in a long relationship for a long time, it was not news to the fandom
they used their long relationship as one reason they wanted to congratulate this time but never did same for chen
WHAT WAS THE ONLY DIFFERENCE?
The only difference is that chen's wife is not a public figure so the news of them dating was never out to protect privacy.. while since both actors were famous they got exposed by dispatch and ended up admitting it (there were proofs posted).
the second difference, Chen is an idol, not an actor..
ofc cause if you make a career as an idol, you definitely can't have a life..
mind these people who say fanservice and what not.. Chen does not even have social media accounts.. he was never big on these
actors these days sell the same image too but somehow its okay for them
Chen has been in the industry for as much as same time as tae joon, and they are like only one year apart in age, but the double standards he is still facing are ruthless.. just a few days ago on the news of his second baby there were these knets flocking around asking him to leave Exo..
idk it just pisses me off.. and always will
shotgun marriages aren't bad anymore when its an actor couple who do it, but is a matter of laughing stock when idols do the same.. like dont even remind me about the time when they made fun of Kai for using condoms like hello pick a narrative?
okay long rant over, those who made it till here reading, thanks lol
