Pimping for OTP: KiHae

WHY I LOVE KIHAE
aka Why I Think It Works
All credits on pictures. I really have no idea where I stole them from anymore, sorry. :(
I actually haven't spent that much time analyzing and over-analyzing the relationship dynamics here, like I have with KangTeuk. I think I can pretty much say at first it was because of the movie (which was my introduction to SuJu fandom, so it will always hold the ultimate sway over my heart), and then it was because I saw how much Donghae made Kibum smile.
I love Kibum's smile. :) It's one of my favorite things in the world. That golden sunshine smile with those perfect teeth and, well, he doesn't smile it all that often anymore. He even commented on that himself in his Arirang monologue, which made me incredibly sad.
But Donghae makes him smile. Donghae is one of Kibum's favorite hyungs, the first one to welcome him to Korea, the one he used to follow around while he was so small (THOSE PICTURES! THEY'RE TERRIFYING IN HOW SMALL KIBUM USED TO BE). Even now, Donghae is the one who makes him laugh and makes him playful. Proof? Please see the Marry U fancams below. My favorite, favorite part in it is where Kibum has to break out of choreography and bring the back of his hand to his mouth to prevent himself from bursting out laughing in the middle of the performance. Because Donghae does that to him. I love it. Kibum needs to laugh more.
All the old gifs and videos make me want it even more. They make me love Donghae and love Kibum and love their interaction together. ♥

Winning the mutizen, Donghae cries after he thanks his dad. Kibum hugs him, because Kibum loves him. ;^;

On that one summer show with Siwon! The girl model is on a date with SW and he feeds her, so Donghae feels left out and starts feeding Kibum, lol. The favor is returned. Aren't they adorable? Yes, yes they are.

I love them.

A lot.

They are so pretty and Donghae makes such weird facial expressions and Kibum laughs at him.

This is one of my favorite clips/KiHae moments because Kibum is so happy just holding Donghae, and Donghae's all *headbob* and "kay, whatever" like he's not really even thinking about being in Kibum's lap.

Full House had the most beautiful Kibum ever.

MARRY U FANCAMS = A++ See below video!

Randomly, Thailand fangirls are apparently the most epic KiHae fangirls ever. I find this totally funny for some reason.
This is a fan report from when DH and Siwon were in Thailand earlier this year filming a CF:
I'm a KiHae shipper...
got it from a fellow KiHae shipper..
Yesterday @ Jatujak Park ...
I was in among of fans in the place near the tent which Siwon & Donghae would rest during filming...
While they were resting, fans shouted out "Kibum Donghae Kibum Donghae Kibum Donghae ...~~~" like this,
Won was drinking water and so he smiled ... >///<
After sawing that, fans changed their voice and shouted "Siwon Donghae Siwon Donghae Siwon Donghae...~~~"
Then, Donghae walked by us, he whispered "Kibum Kibum Kibum Kibum ~" like this ....
How cuteeeeeeee !!!!! >//////////<

Same info also available at this post, which provides this video, where you can watch Donghae mouth "Kibum Kibum Kibum" around 2:00 - 2:18.
Cuuuute.

Picspam!

Lookit the scrawny little thing Kibum used to be. AND THINK ABOUT HIS MANLY ARM MUSCLES NOW. Yum.




This is from the same summer show as the feeding gifs. Why, yes, that is Hae lying all boneless across a half-naked Kibum. Mmm.

See what I said about playful? Oh Kibum, pull on my ponytail~


Look at the first row of pictures below. They're all predebut. LOOK AT HOW SMALL KIBUM WAS OMFG. And then he grew up and was a player. :Db

And now for the videos!
Short, short clip of KiHae dancing during Way For Love that makes me so happy because they're both grinning like silly dorks, Hae is crooking his finger at Bum, and Bum is all young and :D. ♥
WATCH ALL OF THIS. It makes me so, so happy. Because Donghae makes Kibum laugh and be playful the way no one else can - and all on stage. The action really starts around 1:30 if you want to skip to that.
What did I say about Kibum being playful? He's amazing here, and it's. God. Yes. PLAYFUL!KIBUM. I LOVE SO HARD. And Hae being all put out, haha.
My very favorite KiHae OPV. I love the song, I love the images, everything. My favorite scene starts at 0:37.
For some other OPVs, see the following links:

• OPV - KiHae - I love of Kihae by KEN@SMFIX (movie!verse, with plot)
• OPV - KiHae - Marry U

Do I need a convicing argument for why Donghae loves Kibum? Donghae loves everyone, true, but I really think Kibum may be his favorite dongsaeng, because he also sees him as a friend. It'll be up in one of my Hae translation things later, but in a letter to the members, Donghae mentions Kibum second (right after Siwon), and leaves him one of the longest messages. He cares because he wants to be not only a good hyung but also a good friend, and he wishes he could reach out more. He talks about feeling "apologetic" in the sense that he feels like he should try harder. I love you, Hae.
So this is less of a pairing thing and more of a I-love-their-friendship thing, but yeah. You want a reason for the ship? It's fucking hot. :( Seriously, guys. Other than KiHae, I'm not big on most Kibum pairings. I think he's a hot heterosexual player who can get any and every girl he wants. You've seen him on YSMM with Eunhyuk, right? Showing off just how he plays those girls to get what he wants. Goddamn, that's hot.
But KiHae. OTP! :D
1. Because it makes Kibum smile.
2. Because it's hot.
You can't argue with reasoning like that, right?

;_____; Kibum's smile in Snow Dream. ;____; He looks so happy, that almost got me teary only no, I will not cry over fandom. ;_____; Kibuuuuuuuuuum. I haven't watched his Arirang yet. I might cry if I do.
no subject
If you watch Kibum's Arirang and cry, you will be in pieces over Hae's. Guaranteed. Because while Kibum's makes me a lot, Hae talks about his dad. And he cries too. Dammit.
Snow Dream was so pretty.

I melt all over the place at how playful and smiley Hae can make Kibum, one of the few who seems to get him to be playful~ AND KIBUM NEEDS THAT. ALL THE TIME HDKSGDLAJSKS *-*
And they are hot. REALLY HOT. Like steaming hot 8D

It's so true, Kibum is rarely playful and happy like that, especially recently. ;_; BUT HAE MAKES HIM SO. And that is why I love them being silly together. There's a clip and some pictures of Kibum pullying on Hae's ponytail from within the past few months. OH I NEED TO FIND IT. Playful!Bum = ♥♥♥ eta: OH LOOK I FOUND IT! (http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff293/sct_01/kibumpony.jpg)
Also, fuck yes, SO VERY HOT :Db
no subject
Argh I wish he would smile more, he really doesn't do any of the fun stuff as of late :( but I lovelovelove how Donghae can bring it out of him *-* OHOH GOD the hairpulling, that was absolutely ADORABLE hfksls I kind of melted all over when I watched that. Playful!Bum is one of the BEST KIBUM'S EVER. Right up there along with smiley!Bum and nakedwithHae!Bum :333
no subject
CinHae moments always make me happy too!
Right up there along with smiley!Bum and nakedwithHae!Bum :333
YES, VERY MUCH YES. :D
no subject
but for me, kihae has taken a backseat to my shihae love, because pretty much SJM = SHIHAE. and yes, it's hard to argue with that. also, kibum has basically fallen off the planet except for dream concert and it makes me very very sad. :(
but, ummm!? i didn't actually comment to bring down the mood!! D: KIHAE IS AWESOME, REALLY. *saves everything*
no subject
But SJM actually means KyuMi, ShiHan, and HenWook for me. Plus Hae/everyone. So it's kind of amazing all over the place. :D SJM tends to make me happy no matter what. I just wish they would air Bravely Going Forwrad. Must have boys in sumo suits!
BUT KIHAE. IT IS SO...PRETTY AND CUTE. I WANT IT ALL THE TIME NOW. It's a little terrible.

As for movie!verse KiHae, I can give you what I have of that epic fic I was going to write. I don't think it's ever going to happen. Maybe I can turn it into a one-shot of some sort?

I AM EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT KIAHE FIC FROM YOU.
I don't have space for another KiHae icon T^T
I think I like them for the same reason you like them, that Hae makes Kibum laughs and smiles so much. That Marry U fancam had me grinning so wide my face was kind of hurt :) It's true that Kibum is more talkative and playful around Heechul, but with Donghae he's just PURE HAPPINESS :D :D I know that most younger members (esp. Siwon, Kyuhyun, and Kibum) loves Donghae so much they like to glomp him here and there and proclaiming their Hae!love to the world, but KiHae is just special, because IDK, I think Kibum is the one that Donghae treat not only as dongsaeng but also a best friend.
They're cute, they're hot, they're compatible with each other, they're pretty to look at, they have amazing dynamic with each other, they're just OTP OTP OTP X33333 *spazzes*
This is one of my favorite clips/KiHae moments because Kibum is so happy just holding Donghae, and Donghae's all *headbob* and "kay, whatever" like he's not really even thinking about being in Kibum's lap.
Snow Dream KiHae is just beautiful, especially Kibum's expression. Like you said, Kibum looks so happy holding Hae there and Hae being oblivious about Kibum's happiness X3 So cute...
GIVE ME MOAR KIBUM, KOREA!!!!!! DX
And/or moar KiHae, I'm not that picky...

But KiHae. OTP! :D
1. Because it makes Kibum smile.
2. Because it's hot.
You can't argue with reasoning like that, right?
No, I really can't. =) And also, b.c this OTP has the two most beautiful smiles ever, and asdfghjkl -melts-
no subject
Okay, that's a lie, I also want Kibum to smile more, and for there to be more silly KiHae interaction. But I'll settle for more KiHae fic, haha.

P.S- I thought you were going to write a sequel or some sorts about the high school au with Kibum's hot arms.
no subject
I think most KiHae fics aren't posted to the community? I don't know, I've come across a lot that aren't. If you want, you can take a look at my memories (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=meitachi&keyword=Super+Junior+(omgwhy)&filter=all); there are some in there. :)
And I'm going to expand the high school AU but RL interferes. I'm working on it though.
