It would be perfect if everything is perfect. But nothing is perfect. Life can be so unpredictable and even the best well laid plans can still go awry. We just have to take things in our stride. Do the best under any circumstance. Make do because we love!
This is exactly with Park Sihoo-ssi’s “Dramatic Valentine” event. I am sure everyone wants it to be perfect, every thing working with clockwork precision and smooth sailing. Park Sihoo-ssi, his team at Hoo Factory, the event organizers, the drama team…but when things don’t go as planned, we just have to make do…and do what’s next best for him.
No doubt we will be upset because our plans are waylaid due to the postponement. All our excitement and anticipation of seeing Park Sihoo-ssi again and hearing the announcement of his new drama have now turned to disappointment. The inconvenience of having to make changes and new plans. The irrecoverable costs of the postponement for some. And new worries again about where and how our favorite man will be heading…progress or backward step?
Yes, I experienced all of these. Cutting short my lunar new year time home with my family. Paying exorbitant costs of changing my flights home and booking my flights to and from Tokyo for February and now having to pay more to rebook them in June! Having to take more days off my limited vacation time during what will be a most hectic year!
Am I worried about where Park Sihoo-ssi is heading, especially in an important market like Japan? Absolutely! Postponement isn’t a wise thing to do as it is at considerable expense and even more costly, reputation!
Nothing can be always perfect…and no one wants things to be imperfect. So there must be compelling reasons why this decision was made. I am sure it wasn’t an easy one, particularly for Park Sihoo-ssi! But he should know what’s best for him. I have absolute confidence in his decision and will fully support him.
I just have to make do…why? Because I love!
I love and support this man and I want to be there for him whenever I can. No matter what! I am happy to make do!
I know he will be at his most vulnerable and need the fullest support now, more than ever before! Comeback is no easy task. Last year was but the first small step. There will be many tougher ones ahead! Let him focus on what he needs to do to progress forward and succeed. There will be other opportunities to see him and soon! I hope that even more of you will be there for him on 15 June 2017 for this most critical event!
We just have to stand strong and be the solid rock behind him, sheltering him from the wind and the rain. Let us rally together as we have always done for him in the past. There is strength in numbers and Park Sihoo-ssi will need this now, more than ever! Fighting my sisters, fight hard for our beloved man!
Let’s make do because we love! We love you, Park Sihoo-ssi!
将就因为爱!
如果一切都能完美,这将是多完美啊!但没有一切都会是一直完美的。生活是不可预测的,即使是做了最好的计划和安排,仍然可以出差错。我们只能随机应变。在任何情况下,尽能力去做最好的。将就,因为我们爱!
这正是施厚君的“戏剧性情人节”活动目前的情况。相信每个人都希望把这活动做得完美,顺利的进行。 施厚君,厚工厂的团队,活动组织方,电视剧团队都一样…但是当事情不按计划,只能将就…并找另一个最佳的选择。
理所当然,对活动的延迟我们会感到不高兴,因为先前的计划都被影响。兴奋和期待可以尽快再次见到施厚君和听到他的新电视剧的宣布现在转向失望。更改时间和做新计划会带来不便。延迟得花的冤枉费用。重新担忧我们最喜欢的男神的未来…进步还是后退呢?
是的,我经历了所有的这些。缩短了回家与家人过新年的时间。支付高昂的费用更改回家的航班和预订往返东京2月的机票,现在又要支付更多重新预订6月的机票!还有要在忙碌的一年中,多请几天宝贵的假期!
我绝对为施厚君担心他的去向,特别是在日本这样重要的市场!延迟不是明智的事情,因为牵扯到相当大的费用,甚至更昂贵的名声!
没有什么总是会完美的…没有人想要不完美的结局。我相信对施厚君,这并非是个容易的决定,所以,应该是有令人信服的理由为什么这么做。唯有他才知道什么会是对自己最理想,最有利益的。我对他的决定有绝对的信心,也一定会支持他。
我会将就…为什么?因为我爱!
我爱护和支持这位男神,只要我可能,都会乐意的支持他!
在这时侯,我知道他会是最脆弱,比以前任何时候更需要我们大力的支持!回归并非是一件容易的事情。去年只是第一个小步。将会面对更多更艰难的前方!让他专注他需要为未来迈进和争取成功所需要做的一切。以后会有其他机会可以和他见面的,而且会很快就有机会!希望更多的姐妹们会前往参加他2017年6月15日的活动,因为对他会非常关键!
为了施厚君,我们需要坚强,当他背后的坚实岩石,为他抵挡暴风雨。就如以往,让我们团结聚力,一齐为施厚君奋斗!加油姐妹们!
让我们将就,因为我们爱!施厚君,我们爱你,一定会支持你!

雖然見面會延遲到6月,但對於施厚而言,電視劇的回歸或許對於他是非常重要的一步,大家一定會支持,也會諒解他的!對吧!
Dear Sihoossi, I respect and support your decisions. All these decisions is the subset of the main decision of your come back, I am here to support you because of your comeback decision. To be honest, if you have not decided to come back, there is no such thing as me being your fan because you also don’t need me this fan thingy, if you are not in the show business, I wouldn’t think you would like strangers declaring their support for you, that would be a personal space invasion, I reckon. Therefore I understand your decision to postpone Dramatic Valentine would not have come easy to you. End of the day, our support are for our own interest because we want to be able to enjoy ourselves with your works, those efforts of yours are something we can’t easily find such standard of talent and acting and performance. I know many fans out there have claimed unconditional love for you, which I am not able to declare in such terms 🙂 My support for you is all for my own sake, to promote my own interest, my interest to be able to continue to enjoy your outstanding entertainment works. I always take my cap off to Nance who again set a great example of what great support means having gone to all the troubles and costs inspite of her hectic start of the 2017 (plus the oncoming work loads she already knew going to take place), as just one of the examples of what Nance is doing. Nance’s example is the epic support any star could ever dream of, in both times of needed to be there for event, as well as when asked not to be there for event. My support to Sihoossi is only in spirit, miniscule in comparison. Nance’s standard of support is for all fans to ponder what is an aboveboard upfront support ought to be in fans’ behaviour. Lately I am seeing signs of some fans going off the track and their support seems to become a personal longing for a dream lover. And I don’t endorse such fanship. Such support in my opinion does not add credibility to Sihoossi. For example, imagine my husband goes into PSH’s instagram and all he sees about my comments are ” I want to dream about you tonight, you are my only love” types of comment. Do you think my husband would support my support for this Korean actor when he sees my such expressions? What would the non fans and public think of PSH’s influence when they see all the lovey comments on PSH’s social media, what would come into the public’s perception of the role model image of our Sihoossi? Such fans’ words and behaviour will only downgrade the respectability of Sihoossi, in my opinion. So taking the opportunity of today’s article of ” because we love”, I can’t hold back what has strongly agitated me lately. Don’t hide behind the broad spectrum of “we love yoü” or “I love you” and keep bombarding those inappropriate comments. Please behave for PSH’s credibility. For me, I am only a stranger to PSH and vice versa , my so call love for PSH end of the day is solely for my own interest that is to see PSH successful in his works and life because then I will get to enjoy more of PSH’s works. 🙂
Chai Hua Loke Agree that we are all selfish in wanting to continue to support Park Sihoo-ssi because there is something that we want from him – his amazing acting ability and wonderful portrayals in dramas and movies. Can’t dispute this at all. You gave me too much praise. I only do what I think is needed to give him the fullest support, whenever and whereever he needs. And being a busy body, sometimes when not needed – as you know, I can be very opinionated. As I have mentioned before, I always think there should be some respectful distance between a star and his fans. Yes, no doubt I like the concept of family but there should still be some distance and one should not cross the boundary. “Dream lover” – absolutely in your dreams, no doubt about it. And best wake up soon because a dream will be a dream, will be a dream…will not become a reality. Just don’t get too carried away thinking that it can become real! Never in my dream has I even considered anything beyond a platonic big sister – younger brother “relationship”…not any “relationship” to even think about. Sorry, but I am a rationale woman, no matter that I put alot of effort into ParkSihooSsi.com. I just love what I do and not even thinking about any reciprority in return. What I get is the pleasure and enjoyment of sharing my views and thoughts on this amazing man…nothing more.
After I commented on Stefania Lupu’s thread or comment, I forgot to come here to add a few words. Nance, you are always humble about the efforts you put into supporting PSH. I don’t think your followers here on this blog disagree my view that yours is the epic standard of a true fan’s support that every actor could ever dream of. The right touch, with professionalism, driven with honesty and sincerity, no ulterior motive (alright, there is this bit of ulterior movive, Sihoossi, we admit, haha, that is our selfish interest of wanting Sihoossi to successfully continue in the industry so that we get to enjoy ourselves for many years to come).
I’ve read somewhere that an actor, when he becomes a star, his life doesn’t belong to him anymore, but to his fans. And I think, the moment I’ve become PSH’s fan, that moment I’ve realized that his life, his career, his efforts, his ups and downs, his success is my concern too. And I must be around him because I want to support a man who dreams and who does things I admire, appreciate and respect. What I think about his fans’ support is like being a family ,which is a safe place where people share and understand, where people in it do not need to be perfect, but they need to be honest, loving, supportive, people who can face obstacles and try to overcome them, for their dreams to come true. PSH is a member of our family, who has big dreams and who strives to achieve them, who is beating himself up every time not to make mistakes, who doesn’t think twice for what he believes with all his heart, who needs a friend, a supporter, but never a saviour. He is capable of being a hero by himself, but no person, even PSH , who is trying to take responsibility for his identity should be alone. And our greatest joy in life, as his fans, is found not in what we do and feel for him, but also in our quiter hopes and labour for him. Once we embrace his value, talent, strength, it neutralizes , when others think less of him. When tough times come, as seems to be his postponement of his show in Japan,it’s very important for his fans to support him with much gentlle softness and kindness, and understanding. I myself feel for him like a parent, who always stands by his son, who encourages him, who supports him, who helps him fly forward!.
I am 100% in agreement with you Stefania. PSH is intelligent and sharp thinking and he knows best the necessity for the postponement of his Tokyo Fan Meet to 15 June. In times such as this when it seems he is faced with yet another setback, let us his fans remind ourselves why we choose to remain as his fans all this while. We could just have taken the easy way out and switch camp to be counted as one of the 16 million or more nameless fans of some popular K stars whatever their names may be. Why do we continue this long chequered journey with him in the first place, and be affected by pains and disappointments that accompany his comeback which is still fraught with doubts and uncertainties from time to time? I think the answer is we find he is worth it. Worth the inconveniences, heartaches, worries. As you have put it so well, we his family of fans got to support this oh so talented man who chases big dreams and fights so hard to achieve them. It would be a loss and waste should he ever decide to give up his fighting. So PSH’s fans let’s please rally around him with encouraging and uplifting words and messages. Under the present circumstances, it’s all about him now, not us anymore.
Excellent urge Dorothy for PSH’s fans. “,,, let’s rally around him with encouraging and uplifting words and messages.”.Hardships often prepare ordinary people for extraordinary destiny.” [C.S.Lewis] FIGHTING PSH ! YOU HAVE AN EXTRAORDINARY DESTINY!
Stefania Lupu I agree with you in almost all aspects including his capability and strength, being part of our family and how we all rally and standby him in support. These are all the reasons why I have been a fan since 2012 and stood by him through his most turmultous time and even to this day, I have not let go because he is still not on firm footing. The one thing I do not agree and feel very strongly about is that as an actor and star, his life does not belong to him and that he belongs to his fans and the public. There will always be a public and private side to anyone, whether the person is a public figure or private individual. Everyone has rights. People who think that a star’s life belongs to his fans think too much of themselves and have no respect for the privacy of others. Stars are humans too, they don’t belong to anyone but themselves, otherwise, they will be slaves. Being a fan does not give anyone the right to dig into a star’s private life and invade his or her privacy whether he or she wants to share it or not. What he or she chooses to share in public can be shared, what he or she doesn’t, what gives fans the right to dig and uncover? This makes them weasels and snoops! No self respecting person would do that! These fans don’t love nor do they respect the stars they claim to love! They only love themselves! Sorry, but this subject rattles me a lot because I don’t buy-in to this concept at all.
Nance , I’ve mentioned it , but not accepted it.. I don’t like to interfere in someone’s life too. I’m a person that respects PSH for what he does as an actor, although some people think that they have the right to control or mingle in his life, as being his fans. Not my aim.. I try to support him, appreciate his endeavours, his efforts, his decisions ,as he thinks being for the best in his career, and I’ll do it with all my heart.
Stefania Lupu and Nance, let me cast my observations : Stefania’s quote of “when an actor becomes a star his life does not belong to him” is a catalyst to Stefania herself to adopt a concern attitude towards the many things that affect PSH. She quotes it as a figure of speech. And Stefania I am sure you are aware that Nance and the many of us fully understand your support for PSH comes with utmost respect comes with sincerity and definitely not overboard. 😊😊😊 Meanwhile I am fully feeling it and understand the point Nance is putting forward so that people do not interpret that general saying that the actor is a public figure hence as a fan we can go to the extent of claiming our piece on him. I have expressed similar to Nance’s sentiment in that no matter how public a star is on the public stage we all must give him due respect, we must not harass him with our own fantasy, we must not invade his personal space and we must not infringe patented materials of his and his business associates to satisfy our own hunger. Here in my country workplace harassment could come in the form of inappropriate language or choice of words. If the recipient of the words so feels the words are making the recipient uncomfortable example if my male colleague frequently come tell me that “hey honey you so good looking I hope to dream about you tonight ” if I feel any tinge of discomfort of such words I have the right to file against my male colleague for sexual harassment. PSH is also an autonomous individual in his own right no doubt he knows many women in the world hold a secret crush on him however knowing is one thing but constantly being bombarded is another thing. The point I am trying to say is Nance, like me, is taking the opportunity of the subject of support and love, to make clear what, in our opinion, constitutes the right level of support from fans. Consequences of fans ‘ behaviour will be copped by the star. Role model image and the star’s social standing a large part is measured by the fans’ behaviour.
Chai Hua, Nance, Wilma, Dorothy thank you for your accurate point of view concerning our real support for PSH, that doesn’t mean our interference in his personal life or that “his life belongs to us “. And I’ll underline this idea, and I hope PSH will accept it: ” Dear fans, Thank you for standing by my side even when times get hard, thank you for making me laugh, when I didn’t even want to smile.”
Any time, all things in the world, is impossible, is in accordance with the expected track, to carry out! We will have to do is take advantage of adversity growth! For people and things that matter, all moments are the best! China said: “sometime!” Activity delay may cause many inconvenience, but must believe that, between each other, is in a better appearance! The fans who love Shi Houjun will never feel the need to do so! Because of love, so the state of all, is to let nature take its course! Because of love, so respect, all decisions! Because of love, so will not say negative energy discourse! Trust, dependence, is a family of the same feelings, so do not doubt, believe firmly, is the most important!
Although I may be silent at times, it doesn’t mean I am no longer supporting PSH. I am reading through the comments as much as I can, because they can be really interesting. It is a good thing we are able to express our points of view freely here. When I read about the postponement of “Dramatic Valentine” I felt sorry for all the sisters who had put in so much effort and were looking forward to attend this event. As I know PSH he would never have taken such a decision if he had been able to avoid it. It is not an impulsive decision and the reschedule of the event has been as smooth as possible. Fans who really care for PSH will swallow their disappointment and willingly make the new arrangements if they can. Nance Phua I am really happy you have been able to make the necessary changes and can attend the event on June 15 nevertheless. More sisters have been able to do so and will continue to give PSH their fullest support. I can only do this from far away with my little pieces of effort. Yes, this is a make do of love. Unfortunately, the type of fans who cross the lines will always be a part of PSH’s following. Don’t you think they will lose interest as soon as PSH is not that much visible as they would like him to be? The core of our sisterhood will always stand by PSH and support him whenever they can. The others will drop apart sooner or later
Wilma , you are right, :”the core of our sisterhood will always stay by PSH, and support him.”As Confucius says: ” Hold faithfullness and sincerity as first principles.” And PSH deserves his fans’ faithfulness and permanent support., even in hard times.
Absolutely spot on @Wilma van Zwietering. People come, people go. The core of our sisterhood will remain because they are the ones who really love our man for who he is and what he is capable of and will stand by him as long as he still wants to pursue his ambition. Loyal and true!
Totally with you, Wilma van Zwietering 🙂
