Chapter 62 is a forum-style post, a CP (couple) thread by Zhishang...
[Feeling Supreme | I always felt that you shouldn't have ended up like this]
LZ: Some people say that a lover's eyes are a narrative poem.
Your eyes, their eyes, the eyes you look into each other—all convey your love.
I happened to stumble upon this secret and became your recorder on the internet.
When you two share the stage or appear together in private, you are so unrestrained and don't care about the opinions of others.
People say that your open and generous manner is what friendship should be.
But who understands the careful separation you deliberately maintained in the photo, in order to protect each other?
Separation among adults is a matter of dignity, and this is perfectly exemplified in your relationship.
The days of appearing on the same stage together are over; people deliberately avoid each other when giving likes; they politely decline when asked questions; politeness has become cruel.
The love of youth should at least leave something behind.
And it seems that of all those you left behind, only I remain.
5L: Yay, it's a post about the Zhi Shang couple, hehe.
After realizing it was a post about mourning graves, I couldn't help but laugh.
LZ, you're so mean! Now I'm going to cry too. It's been almost four months since our Zhi Shang (a popular Taiwanese entertainment company) has performed together or interacted. Xi Mei and Long Ge's solo performances have been incredibly popular, and while I'm happily watching the released materials, I'm also hoping they'll have some interaction.
But no, Xi-mei didn't, Long-ge didn't, they didn't even leave me a single collaborative song.
15L: At least leave me one collaboration track! Didn't you guys at YG really like to feature each other?
23L: Just a side note, the joke about ETE not belonging to the YG family has been around for ages, so it would be strange for these two to collaborate. Although I'm also really looking forward to a collaboration between these two idols who are considered creative geniuses.
47L: The fact that Ximei chose to feature artists outside the company rather than senior artists from the same company for her solo shows that ETE's position within the company is very awkward.
I heard the divisions are going to merge later. I personally feel EE is in danger. Yang Hyun-suk seems to dislike EE's current style; he mentioned this issue more than once on the show "New Boy Group Survival Station."
One is a biological child whom the company cultivated from the ground up, while the other was adopted and forced into the entertainment industry. Thinking about it this way, Brother Long and Sister Xi probably don't really have any connection; it's just a topic created by the company.
It seems like this is to cover up the hype surrounding Brother Long and his real girlfriend back then.
51L: I hate Gouwaiji. If the rumors were false from the beginning, why did they let me have any illusions?
67L: Any couples you see on Waiji are 100% fake. Don't really think Yang Hsiao won't create hype.
68L: I think the comment above needs to be limited in scope. The rumors about Wai-Chicken and other artists from the same company are false, but the rumors about him and artists outside the company might not be false at all. [doge emoji]
81L: Seriously, if they were really together, given their personality, they would have already started showing it off.
93L: But over the years, it seems that only that Japanese person has been shown off.
94L: No, no, no, it's obvious the person upstairs hasn't paid attention to Kwon Yong's CP fans. Everyone says Kwon Yong loves to show off in every other pairing. But when it comes to Ji Sang, Kwon Yong becomes cautious? It's more accurate to say their relationship is just that of colleagues working together under company arrangements.
101L: Shang Jie loves to show off, doesn't she? The rumors about Shang Jie and Jay Park are making headlines right now. Who can say that Shang Jie's love of showing off didn't play a big role in it?
107L: In short, the older brother and sister who love to show off in the eyes of other CP fans become as quiet and cautious as chickens when it comes to Zhi Shang, which can only mean that this CP is not real.
114L: Every pair of couples has its own way of being shipped.
The two characters in other couples who are incredibly charming become completely different in this one, and it's really great to ship them.
LZ: Ever since someone revealed that Brother Long left halfway through the airport, it seems like everything has changed.
It's as if they continue to thrive on stage, leaving me stuck in the same place.
132L: What's the deal with leaving the airport? [Put an ear]
145L: When Hee-seo first came back, didn't Kwon Yong go back to South Korea? Back then, all the CP fans were shipping them. The next day, someone photographed Kwon Yong going to the airport again, but this time he left after receiving a phone call halfway through.
The reason why Quanlong left the airport that time is also known as one of the great unsolved mysteries.
Some say the company is inhumane and Yang Juhua is inhumane, others say Quan Long attempted to run away for love but failed. Anyway, people are using this to criticize the company, and even shippers are using it to ship their favorite couples.
The fans thus got what they wanted.
176L: You all say it's fake. I'd rather believe that Zhi Shang broke up than believe that they never had any feelings for each other at all.
177L: Click to see the last stand of the CP fans.
183L: Those who ship pure love stories are crying and saying it ended badly, but those who ship immoral stories are still shipping them with great enthusiasm.
203L: What's the point of this if there's no interaction? Are we just indulging in the "candy" of simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division? Are we just watching people who have the same style of clothes as everyone else? Or are we learning photo editing techniques to stitch their photos together?
No, shipping the "Supreme Immorality" pairing should be expanded to include something else: watching the two main characters interact with their respective "real lovers" and imagining the two's "rotten hearts."
205L: The person upstairs is probably a die-hard fan who's having a meltdown.
Spending two sets of effort and two sets of money, and usually only daring to say that they are dual-fans of the same CP, seeing what the solo fan said really made the sky fall down.
People who just want to enjoy their own little world and ship a particular couple have to come out and criticize.
The female solo fan is all-powerful and even interferes with how others ship couples.
Please, don't be so possessive of other people's thoughts, okay?
Even if CP fans (fans of couples) ship characters to death, it's still much better than solo fans treating their favorite characters like innocent, naive little flowers. At least it's more realistic.
213L: CP fans have become the lowest level again, especially those who ship heterosexual couples.
What's wrong with taking a bite?
If you're going to criticize me again, please reimburse me for the money I spent on CPF during this period.
225L: Oh my god, now they're starting to act innocent.
Not only does he argue with solo fans, but he also frequently criticizes other couples who ship the main characters.
Especially those who idolize morally questionable values, always thinking they're the most clear-headed and noble, using the "true feelings of rotten people" to glorify reality. Not all reality is rotten, okay?
When you all truly wake up one day, you'll realize how ridiculous you are.
234L: Haven't other brands criticized Supreme? Then what are these? [Screenshots*n]
If it's a fan war, just say it's a fan war. There's really no need to come here and subtly say that Zhi Shang CP fans are the worst people.
247L: CP fans who don't respect either side of the CP are really low. Not to mention some wpgs who ship CPs with sugary eyes. It's really funny to step on seniors to show affection for your own idol.
248L: Oh, they haven't denied it, why are you in such a hurry?
252L: True couples always hope that both of them are happy. I would be very happy if they could be together. If they both find their life partners, even if it's not each other, I will still send them my blessings.
261L: Yeah, I always just quietly ship them, I don't know what's there to argue about. Both artists are very charismatic idols, and their pairing is equally appealing.
267L: If you try to break up a fight at a time like this, you'll be assumed to be fans of the opposing team.
273L: Wait, what did you say, 247L? Some people shouldn't think they're seniors just because they're fans of a certain senior.
291L: How many of the fans of Zhi Shang are actually female fans? 273L: You know perfectly well. You're always using unsubstantiated rumors to criticize Quan Yong, calling him a scumbag, but when your own sister interacts with male celebrities on stage, you only say how charming your sister is.
What? You're doing something hypocritical, and you don't want people to criticize you?
302L: Oh my god, it's Shang Jiesi who said that people who are into Zhishang are the funniest thing I've heard this year.
Shang Jie, a female idol poised to reach the top, has had her fans cause a ruckus countless times due to her scandals—this is an undeniable fact.
Unlike some families that spoil their children, Shang Jie's fans are incredibly over-the-top. She's already showing off to an extreme, yet she's still stubbornly insisting her brother isn't dating.
You'd be better off spending this time managing your older brother and giving him some boundaries.
317L: I'll just wait for Sister Shang here in the summit group. Oh, I forgot, what Sister Shang fans say most is that Sister Shang is uniquely beautiful. We in the summit group probably won't be able to wait for EE.
326L: Seriously, don't even think about reaching the top of the reserve list. Your team is practically kicking the other two teammates out of EE. Wasn't it supposed to be that Sister Shang is the only one who's beautiful?
333L: Don't you find it funny to use this to criticize Shang Jiesi? It's not just Shang Jiesi who fires teammates. Aren't there other people doing this too?
342L: We VIPs only book the 10th anniversary celebration, not these kinds of events. The five members of BigBang are all very close friends. What everyone loves is not only BigBang as a group, but also the five members' deep affection for BigBang.
356L: Wow, the moment group spirit is mentioned, you BB group fans jump out faster than anyone else. Why didn't you guys come to clarify this so quickly when others were calling Kwon Yong a scumbag? On the contrary, I've seen quite a few people agreeing with you.
362L: They've already debuted as a group, so is the existence of group fans some kind of outrageous thing?
The three girls in EE have a good relationship. So please, don't try to sow discord between them every day. Even if you do, they'll still end up going back to the same dorm at night.
Also, please, solo fans, be less possessive of the artists' private lives. Instead of focusing on so many artists' private lives, you should pay more attention to EE's comeback early next year.
391L: Does anyone still remember this was a post about Zhi Shang crying at his grave? Why are solo fans and group fans arguing? [Confused]
LZ: I haven't seen it for a moment, and CP fans are already being labeled with all sorts of tags: male solo CP fan, female solo CP fan, BB group fan, EE group fan. I'm just a simple CP fan and I haven't offended anyone. It's already annoying to find out that the CP ended.
413L: To put it bluntly, shipping couples is essentially about fulfilling your own fantasies. Why not just enjoy those fantasies in your own little world? Why come here and lament?
438L: Did the two celebrities know that they got together and then broke up?
439L: Upstairs, the two celebrities are still one step away from breaking up—breaking up with their respective boyfriends/girlfriends.
452L: To be honest, if you really have to ship them, aren't Quanlong and the Japanese model, and Shang Jie and Jay Park, much better than Zhi Shang? They interact, they get photographed, and they're practically making their public displays of affection public.
467L: All I can say is that leaving blank space is also a kind of art.
472L: Does anyone really believe Xi Mei and Jay Park? Their show seems so deliberate.
473L: It would be fake not to show it off, I'm talking about Supreme.
493L: Shang Jie is being slandered again. If there's little interaction on a collaboration stage, you say she's slacking off; if there's a lot of interaction, you say she's showing off. Even mentioning her collaborator is considered showing off; appearing at a large dinner party with her collaborator is also considered showing off. I don't know about others, but I do know that this Shang Jie is clearly single. We, the adopted daughters of the West Wing, wouldn't dare to be as bold as our biological daughters.
524L: 493L If you're going to whitewash him, fine, but why are you praising one person while putting down another? Kwon Yong kindly introduced your sister to a business partner, but who knew your sister would actually make that person her boyfriend. Poor Kwon Yong, this kind senior, not only got taken advantage of but also got insulted.
Besides, didn't you already clearly sever ties with the YG family? Now you're starting to cultivate a female persona, why don't you talk about how many resources EE got from YG?
Having debuted for only two years, they've already had three comebacks (both major and minor), members have released solo albums, and their individual resources are plentiful. Even 21 members aren't as popular as your sister.
551L: Isn't the branch just an adopted daughter? Yang Juhua's dislike is so obvious, how can the person upstairs still lie and say that EE is favored?
Since the news of the branch merger broke, the rumors have been increasing day by day, and the resources have been decreasing day by day. It's still uncertain whether EE got those resources because of WYSIWYG.
563L: You see, fans are quite clear about their idol's relationship status. Those who know their idol is definitely in a relationship won't even try to refute it.
578L: Wow, I was so busy arguing with someone else that I forgot to slap you, 563L. Kwon Yong is currently single, thank you. He's single in every way. He hasn't dated anyone in the group, anyone outside the group, any celebrity, or any ordinary person.
Even the media that have been following Quanlong for several months haven't captured anything, and you're spreading rumors here.
However, a certain junior colleague has been photographed quite a lot recently.
593L: If they weren't photographed, then they weren't dating. So where did that famous SS comment about true love from a certain senior come from?
I heard that a certain senior was very infatuated back then.
We younger generation are different. Even if we're photographed together, we never have any solo outings. Besides, even if it's true, it's just something we do for fun.
...
808L: Okay, this is a post for mourning. Everyone who could come is here: solo fans, group fans, and CP fans.
812L: I feel this post will become a classic.
827L: It's rare to see such a pure free-for-all these days, everyone's fighting purely for their own attributes [sigh].
831L: After reading all this, I have only one thought: there are definitely more than three ways to combine solo fans, group fans, and CP fans.
923L: EE will be back next year, and this post about body mechanics will be dug up again then.
924L: It won't be that long. At the latest, this post will be back on the homepage by the end of the year. After all, both of them had solo performances this year.
931L: These two are such popular solo artists this year, don't they really want to have a collaboration stage? [Looking forward to it]
933L: Shang Jie has been completely career-driven lately; I honestly don't believe she's in a relationship.
934L: Actually, I don't believe Quan Long either. He's been acting all melancholic lately.
935L: Stop testing the waters upstairs, go outside if you're going to argue. [Chin resting on hand]
937L: Sigh, as a casual observer, I don't really have that many thoughts. As a music enthusiast, I would adore every good song and its creator.
942L: Sister Shang and Brother Long are practically born solo gods. Could you two please have more solo matches? Okay.
943L: Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you upstairs. Brother Long and Sister Shang will be focusing on group activities next year.
951L: Is it really impossible to have any expectations for the future? I'm talking about Zhishang.
963L: Sure, dream big! What if one day they combine and I get married?
