I told myself categorically yesterday morning, before the press conference of KBS new weekend drama “My Golden Life”, “Nance, it has been around 4 years now, you have wept enough tears for Park Sihoo-ssi. Today is a happy day. No more crying from now on!”
But I just couldn’t help myself from crying buckets again!
As wave upon wave of Korean news were released, fast and furious, and I saw photos of his humble bow, I burst out crying again! Just purely looking at the photos, without reading the reports, it looked like a bow of apology. Of course, I felt frustrated that an innocent man had to bend over backwards to make his comeback. Those were tears of frustration and indignation because of what he had been subjected to and it had to come to that.
Calming myself down to finally read the news, I made an about turn, feeling totally humbled. That bow and apology were not what they appeared. They were Park Sihoo-ssi’s respectful apology for the inconvenience, the worries and hardship he had caused to those who put their faith and trust in him. What a man! It reinforced my belief in the goodness in him!
And last night, before I could even start writing this article, my fingers were already sore from clicking so many news articles, scouring through the news and downloading those beautiful photos of him in his lavender suit. It felt good to see so many articles on him and his, it must have been well over a thousand articles on “My Golden Life” and majority of these were on Park Sihoo-ssi.
This felt like the old times again, when he was very much in the limelight. Except that now, it felt bitter sweet. Life will not be the same, we are older now, and hopefully wiser. And my eyes couldn’t help welling again with tears. I felt like crying buckets yet again!
哭泣桶
昨天上午在KBS新周末电视剧“我黄金光辉的人生”的新闻发布会前,清楚地提醒过自己,“Nance N姐,已经有四年多了,妳已经为施厚君哭泣许多了,以成了哭泣桶啦。今天是个快乐的日子。从现在起不可以再哭了!“
但是我还是忍不住哭了。
随着一波波,快速而狂飙的韩国新闻的发布,看到施厚君恭维鞠躬的照片,我再次的哭泣了!只是纯粹看照片,没有阅读报道,看起来像一个道歉的鞠躬。我感到沮丧的是一位无辜的男人不得不向后弯腰,才能复出。为他受了伤害,但还得抱歉,而感到沮丧和愤慨的泪水。
冷静下来,终于阅读新闻时,就醒悟了过来,感觉完全被他的谦虚而感动。那鞠躬与道歉并非如我所想像那样,施厚君是因为给信认他的人所造成的后顾之忧,对此表示敬意。多好的男人啊!他的这举动增强了我对他的善良的信念!
昨天晚上,还未开始撰写这篇文章之前,我的手指已经好酸了,点击了那么多的新闻,阅读文章和不停的下载他穿着薰衣草色西装的美照。看到这么多关于他的文章感觉特好,应该有超过一千多篇关于“我黄金光辉的人生”的文章,大多数都是与施厚君有关的。
感觉就像旧时一样,当施厚君人气大爆时。但,现感到有点酸甜苦辣。生活不会再和以往一样了,我们现在年纪大了些,希望也聪明了些。我的眼睛再也忍不住,又流泪了。觉得再次哭泣得像水桶一样!

Nance, it’s gonna be alright from this very day onwards. Dear Nance, your hard works have come to this fruitful day and moment. Just remember from this day onwards, the sky is the limit. Hugs and Kisses Nance
Because of your timely article yesterday clarifications of his apology was on the inconveniences caused to those who put faith in him, because of your timely clarifications, I saw his bow at the same time as I read your article. You saved me from being emotional wreck by viewing his bow and not knowing what’s exactly transpired, if not because of your clarifications, Nance, I too, would break down like many of you with 1st instance of seeing his bow and his tense facial expression of WHAT??????? WHY????? I would even add the WTF slogan being so western oriented nowadays. However I was totally saved by your bell, your timely article where the very 1st time I saw the bowing photo is after I read in English translation by Nance what he apologised for.
弯下腰杆却让人们看到了高高扬起的自尊自信和打不倒的人格魅力。昨日,第一时间看到厚厚在媒体面前鞠躬致歉的照片时,和N姐一样心里不是滋味,但是同时也看到了施厚闪耀着智慧的眼神和气宇轩昂的神态。记者采访时谈笑风声,和女演员合影时绅士有加温柔体贴,虽不在现场但一眼望去满目施厚,气场力透屏幕,唯有内心强大的人才可以做到如此!昨日的施厚太精彩太帅气,不仅外貌,更在精神风貌!好喜欢N姐所选的这些图片,都说“江石”回来了,然而除了清秀的样貌,更让人欣喜的是他温暖而坚定的眼神,他不是“蝎子”更不是“羊羔”,他是成熟可信赖的施厚君!
언제나응원합니다..더욱더좋은연기부탁드려요..쓴소리는몸의양약이되듯이그쓴소리가더욱더살아가는데힘이됨을기억하시고쓴소리를통해서더욱더성장된요소가됨을…늘.홧이팅하세요…

Bienvenido Park Si Hoo!!!!Lo que no mata, fortalece!!!!!!!
Just as I posted in my own social media. This morning I spotted the very 1st new bud burst from our glory vine. Today is the start of a brand new beginning.
To be auspicious for the upcoming harvest!
Daniela Maria Miricescu Thank you
Just remember, this one bow will melt the hardest nut. This one bow is the key to the future. No one gave the key to him, he created his own key to his future. Remember, luck means opportunity meets with preparation. Once the opportunity is unlock with this key (the bow), nothing is going to stop his future.
Nance, you’ve felt like crying buckets. I think many of us have felt the same. Park Si Hoo ‘s press conference was an unforgettable event in his life , full of emotions and also happiness , as well as for all his fans, because he finally reached this moment after many years of expectations. But crying, when we are happy, may be our body’s way of balancing out our emotions and recovering from them. With you and with others, at PSH’s press conference, this has taken place because you , and all others, were overwhelmed with strong positive emotions , and doing this seem to recover better from strong emotions. And I’ll give you some lyrics from the song of Faith Edith, “Tears of Joy”, that reveals this positive emotions.:”..You’ve got me so emotional, but when I cry now, they are all tears of joy……My heart has seen the ups and downs, the highs and lows…. And all I wanna do now is sing… I just wanna sing for you… You’ve got me so emotional. but when I cry now, they’re all tears of joy.”. The future is bright for Park Si Hoo from now on, and we shall have tears of joy in our eyes for his victory. Well done Park Si Hoo!
#朴施厚# #我黃金光輝的人生#
在昨天下午這個新劇發佈會中,看到施厚我就覺得他很勇敢和剛強,雖然是有點緊張,但還是表現得相當淡定和有自信。他謙恭有禮的答謝給予他演出機會的每個人,又承諾會用心盡力去拍攝,這段感恩的說話和真摯的內心確實令人動容。所以我很了解姐姐哭的原因,因為其實我也有偷偷流眼淚呢!
Like you, Nance, when I saw the pictures with the bow, I was very impressed (but not to tears though). But when I saw the video, I felt better. The bows, because there were more, were short, but made with sincerity and deep respect. The pictures give a grave load to the gesture.
I admit that I feel a little uncomfortable about yesterday. I created the impression of being ignorant and taking things easy. I feel the need to explain me and thank you for your indulgence. An European like me has learned about the importance and significance of the gesture of asking for forgiveness in Asian culture, not only on TV dramas, but also on news channels. I was impressed by the profound respect and sincerity that public persons have for apology in the face of the nation.
It happened to me, to watch tv Korean news in the day when the Park Si Hoo case was announced (probably Feb.17 or Feb.18, 2013). The first important news that day was about the launch of North Korean missiles. And the second news was about him. At that time, I had a growing interest in Park Si Hoo-ssi, and the news made me feel my heart stopped for a moment. If for me it was so, then for Koreans I don’t think it was any less. I concluded that Park Si Hoo for Korea is a very important personality.
I was amazed, then annoyed and finally I was delighted that my intuition did not deceive me when I chose to be his fan; not just an actor, but also a man of high quality soul.
In my opinion of course, the bows (in fact it was five) by which Park Si Hoo apologizes to the public at the beginning of the press conference it was an emotional gesture of total sincerity, full of respect for the Koreans. He began with three bows, in three different directions. Here is a translation that I found closest to what I understood: ”although a lot of time has passed, I would like to sincerely apologize for any anxiety and inconveniences I personally caused.” He bowed, then continued: “I will work hard on the drama as to not become an imposition to our director, writer, and viewers who believed in me.” And yet another bow, as thanksgiving for them.
I always believed that this should not happen, but in the spirit of Korean culture, though innocent, Park Si Hoo had to apologize. His apology come to signifies for him, the final of a long period of reflection, of self-knowledge, from which he emerged worthy, stronger, wiser, and surrounded by much love from his fans who always were with him.
Dear Daniela, not at all, definitely not the impression of ignorance and taking things easy that we thought of you. I fully understand where you were coming from. As I said if not because of Nance’s timely grasped of the exact words PSH apologied for, I too, would have jumped and screamed, as we are people with backbone so to speak, why should we be made to kow tow on public pressure of something we were made victim of. However when it comes to apology for inconvenieces caused to people who support him, that is absolutely most appropriate to publicly announced of his private regret that such unnecessary added troubles were added to the people who supported his comeback. 🙂
Regarding the news of North Korea, this morning our Australia prime minister said if US goes to war, under the treaty, Australia would come to aid. Just as if Australia were to be attacked, under the treaty, US would have to come to Australia’s aid……hmmmmmmm……….
It may be bitter sweet, it may have the tinge of oh well, so much time has lapsed, and we (and PSH) are now older, it may have the feeling that how would it be had he been always in the limelight and needn’t suffer these last 4 years. All these are the past. From 40 to 60 is still a very solid 20 years to go, lots can be done. I used to think that well if not married by 30s, might as well forget about getting married thing. A wise man said to me, think about let’s say even if you are healthy to say 65, 40s to 65 will still give you 20 over years, that’s a lot of time of your life to experience being married. And thanks to this wise man’s words, it has been indeed meaningful life experience for me. Nonethless, we are all realist, and PSH for one is very honest realist himself when it comes to age and what type of image or acts or roles or gestures he has been rather critically honest that regardless of how sweet how cute how desirably attractive of his sweet youthful face of making nice advertisement photos etc, he knows that there comes a time and place something got to belong to the past, yet, the future is aplenty, we must always remember this. The Future is Aplenty. And He is the type who will invent and pioneer things that no one has put on records. Therefore no more bitter sweet to all the long time fans who stood by him. It’s gonna be just SWEET, as cleverly chosen by PSH, MGL will leave the sweet smile and happy vibes because it is a good script. Thank God he did not choose something like TPM type of deep and hard emotional wrecks as a comeback, TPM story line really wrecked my heart inside out upside down. Next drama, after MGL, yes, he can go for something really deep that squeezed every juice out of our hearts, but for a comeback, yes, wise choice, let all of us laugh and put the past to the past, lighten all of us first, with MGL.
I understand very well Daniela. I upset by his gesture. and I m touch to by the tears of Nance : yes all of this it’s behind us now. (just no forget That there are wolves in the sheepfold and that we should be wary of them) thanks for your wisdom Chai Hua. All of you, you are worthy to be psh’fans
