?? Is KGW the KGW that I know? 

└ GS actor Kim Gyowon 

 

Was today that drama filming day? If he borrowed a car, seems like their relationship isn’t that bad 

└ How can you tell if their relationship is bad or not just from that one thing lol 

└└ Why are you so angry? If their relationship was bad, why would he give her a ride? Why are you posting about KGW in the idol category 

└ Hey, I can see through you 

└ Posted it here because Park Ha is an idol, why are you asking why it was posted? lol Today shouldn’t be a First Law filming day, right? 

└ How do you know that? 

└└ Asking how someone knows something that’s publicly available…; Why is the comment section atmosphere like this

Woah, a lot got posted in a short time. I heard it’s not from the drama filming site but some Tomorrow’s Super Star filming site? I heard it was after work. I just came along because my friend said she had to see Jo Yejun leaving work, but Jo Yejun hasn’t come out yet and it seems only Stone Cherry left. But Kim Gyowon came with a van and picked up Park Ha. That’s all.

Kim Gyowon’s face doesn’t show up? Are you sure it’s him? 

└ The fans confirmed that it’s definitely Kim Gyo-won’s car

That sticker on the back of the van is something a fan gave him and he drives around with it attached, definitely Kim Gyowon Why would anyone even go that far

Rumormongers still attacking someone until they’re buried alive… Meanwhile the actual people involved seem to be getting along fine, even picking each other up after work

But why is Kim Gyowon really picking up Park Ha…?? We’re happy that the conflict rumors seem to be dying down but… it feels surreal and I’m stunned…

It’s been so long since Gyong posted on Instagram ㅠㅠ 

Plus I think this is the first time seeing him post content about another celebrity 

Anonymous user:

I thought I was pretty hardcore as a fan… but is it normal for this type of content to feel unfamiliar? 

└ It’s normal, I feel the same . . .

‘The Law of First’s Love’ Kim Gyowon X Stone Cherry’s Park Ha, Showing Off Their ‘Surprising Friendship’

[Daily POP Reporter Yoon Seungah] 

Actor Kim Gyowon is creating a buzz by revealing his surprising friendship with Stone Cherry member Park Ha. 

Photo = Kim Gyowon Instagram 

On the Xth of Month X, Kim Gyowon posted a photo with Park Ha on his personal SNS. Kim Gyowon added a ‘????’ emoticon along with the photo. 

In the photo, Park Ha is affectionately resting his face on Kim Gyo-won’s shoulder. Meanwhile, Kim Gyowon was previously caught up in rumors of conflict. 

In response, netizens are reacting with comments such as “This essentially ends the conflict rumors” and “It’s nice to see this unexpected friendship.”

Just @humanflate 

Umm…ㅠㅠ;; But it is a bit… It’s not just Park Ha who suffered damage… Our Jaewoon also struggled with rumors early on, so if he was going to post proof like this, it would have been nice if he included other cast members too, not just Park Ha. Anyway, at least it’s fortunate that there’s no problem with the filming atmosphere…I guess ㅠㅠ

ggins @ggingging 

Wow, Gloomy fans are seriously scary lol Even ‘THE’ Kim Gyowon is getting criticized for associating with them;;

simiz⁷ @atlanta Replying to @ggingging 

This is seriously hilarious wow but doesn’t this make things even more suspicious? 

ㅣ 

ggins @ggingging Replying to @atlanta 

Seriously, two people were caught up in the rumors but he only posts a picture with one of them…? 

simiz⁷ @atlanta Replying to @ggingging 

Seems like a reasonable suspicion ㅠ

sommers @canhear2201

Kim Gyowon is like the textbook definition of a GOAT. A few days ago, Gloomy’s fanatics were terrorizing his Instagram because of the ride home incident, but does he care at all? Nope! He just posts a friendly pic without even tagging LJW? lol

maeburi @bakamono 

Just accept it already, rumor-mongers… No matter how much you insist that Kim Gyowon was threatened or that he’s being forced to do business with her, reality won’t change…

maeburi @bakamono 

Even Gyong’s core fans are just surprised by this unexpected idol friendship content and aren’t denying reality or being stubborn about it. They’re actually enjoying it because it’s something new, while only the rumor-mongers are left claiming mental victories… It’s almost pitiful at this point

Kim Gyowon absolutely refused to delete the photo despite requests to do so. His reasoning was that people who were going to see it had already seen it, and those who wanted to save it had already done so, so deleting it would only make it spread instantly. 

His logic was that if the original was deleted, everyone would find it strange – his reasoning was so logical that there was nothing to counter with, so she had to keep quiet.

‘This might cause some problems, but there will still be people who criticize.’ 

‘I told you, don’t worry about it. Just ignore whatever anyone says.’

After saying that, he once again escorted Haeun all the way to his dorm. Because of this, the manager who had been waiting lost his job and ended up slowly following behind Gyowon’s van. 

When Haeun said he would ride in Gyowon’s car, the manager couldn’t bring himself to say no and just let him go.

Gyowon insisted they must follow each other on SNS. He claimed that was the only way to properly show off their friendship. From Haeun’s perspective, this didn’t make sense. Even fans wouldn’t likely check every time a celebrity’s following count increased.

Still, because he was so insistent, as soon as he arrived at the dorm, he opened his phone and checked Gyo-won’s SNS. Though there had been filming time, the post hadn’t been up for long, yet it was already accumulating plenty of hearts and comments.

While idols tend to have many foreign fans due to the K-pop boom and such, he had thought actor accounts weren’t like that. However, Gyowon’s SNS was filled with comments in foreign languages, presumably left by international fans.

He also took a closer look at the photo, which he hadn’t properly seen when it was posted. The image of himself leaning on Gyo-won’s shoulder looked surprisingly intimate. Although that pose had been forcibly arranged by Gyowon pushing him to lean on him, to those who didn’t know that, the two would appear to be extremely close.

The comment reactions weren’t bad. From the overall atmosphere, it seemed like many of Gyowon’s fans were well-mannered people. 

There were people happy about his long-awaited Instagram update, people saying it was nice to see them looking friendly, some foreign language comments that were incomprehensible, and various others. 

Haeun, who had grown accustomed to being criticized for days, secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he navigated away.

Haeun had come to follow him back, but he got distracted looking at his posts and forgot his original purpose. As he hurriedly went back to press the follow button, Haeun paused for a moment.

Kim Gyowon’s following list didn’t even reach ten people. Upon checking, it appeared to only include his agency’s official account, a few actors from the same agency, and some accounts with blue verification marks that had only their names written in English, making it impossible to tell who they were. Needless to say, there were no idols at all.

With so few, it seemed likely that fans would notice a change in the number of followers. Somehow it felt strange. A photo that looked too intimate, and becoming the only idol in a following list you could count on your fingers. 

After hesitation, Haeun finally pressed the follow button.

The person who would make others wait for hours when replying to KaTalk messages was surprisingly quick at times like this. Gyowon’s following number increased just a few minutes later. He knew this without having to refresh because a KaTalk notification immediately rang.

[Kim Gyo-won] 

You did it.

Just as he was about to reply.

KaTok! 

KaTok! 

KaTok!

Multiple notifications poured in one after another. It wasn’t Gyowon sending additional messages, nor was it one person sending several consecutive messages. They were all from different chat rooms.

Simultaneously, the system sent a notification. Somehow it felt like a refreshing voice he hadn’t heard in a very long time.

『A sudden event has occurred! (๑•̀ㅁ•́ฅ✧)』
