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 !!!!! >//////////<


~credits to bluishfay @ soompi or here

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 - Love is All You Need
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?

[identity profile] dear-whimsy.livejournal.com 2008-06-14 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, you make me like Hae again in the way no one else can~ Actually, I think now my mental block against him is mostly gone. :D Yey I can stand to read fic about him again! And he can start working his way up my list again~

;_____; 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.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-14 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
It's because this post is all about how Hae makes other people (other people not me anyway) happy. :D I love that about him, the way he makes other people smile.

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.

[identity profile] dear-whimsy.livejournal.com 2008-06-14 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
B-but I watched Hae's. And it was sad, but... D:? I WILL TRY AGAIN LATER.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-14 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe I'm am just really sentimental when it comes to Hae and family? And just family in general.

[identity profile] dear-whimsy.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty D: about family, hmmm. I think I might not have been paying too much attention. It's easy for me to treat SuJu as detached characters so a lot of the times things like this don't hit me very hard - oh wait. Wait. Um. Now that I actually remember what Hae talked about concerning his dad, the part with "I know he's watching, but I wish I could sing for him, just once"... D: D: D: D: D: D: ;~~; I actually forgot. D: I didn't cry, but yes, that did hurt. D:

agkdufkdj OKAY CHEMISTRY NOW~ :D

WHAT. I AM NOW SHIPPING KIHAE. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE. THIS IS NOT WHAT I SIGNED ON FOR. ;ALKJDH

YAY MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. I wasn't aware I had a goal BUT LOOK I DO NOW. \o/ And it's been reached!

KiHae is ridiculously cute and full of :D :D :D all the time and alkjfskd yes. SO CUTE AND PLAYFUL I LOVE IT A LOT. ♥♥ I HOPE THIS MAKES YOU WANT TO WRITE THEM. :D

[identity profile] aconite.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
WELL THEN I'M GLAD I MADE THIS GOAL EASY FOR YOU. Even though I don't want to ship hae or kibum, especially not together. Outside of movie!verse, that is. LKADHJ ARGH.

They are. )): I love happy, smiling Kibum and he's usually that around Donghae. ♥ AND I AM WRITING FIC ALREADY, FOR YOU, WITH DONGHAE STALKING KIBUM AND SOMEHOW IT ENDS WITH SEXYTIMES. IDK. I HAVE REALLY THOUGHT IT OUT MUCH.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I AM GLAD ALSO. But why wouldn't you want this? Whyyyy when it is so AMAZING and CUTE and full of SMILEY PONYTAIL-TUGGING (http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c35/kamedaily/KiHae/kibumpony.jpg)?

I like any fic that ends in sexytimes. You = A+! Hurray and win forever!

[identity profile] taylormercury.livejournal.com 2008-06-14 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
UGH I LOVE KIHAE. SO MUCH. I think I noticed them when Full House was on, when I actually started to like Kibum. And they are just. YES. this post is full of love and LOVE AND MORE LOVE OMG *explodes with love*

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
and adorable. ohmygod why is there not any kihae for me to read RIGHT NOW GODDAMNIT.

best post ever. in the history of ever. EVER EVER. ♥!!
and god I love those marry u fancams hfksflsdkl!!!!!

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Yes yes yes KIHAE IS AMAZING. I totally wasn't paying that much attention to it during Full House (but I must've been watching out for it because I watched SJFH after I watched the movie, and the movie made me a KiHae shipper) but I think I should rewatch it. :D For SJFH always deserves a rewatch.

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

YOU WERE SLOW TO THE KIHAE GAME, MY FRIEND. SLOW. They were there welllll before the movie!! (ohmygod I swear there are some serious MOMENTS between them in the movie hfjshfls!!) YES, REWATCH, and see, and love :D (also, SEE THE CINHAE TOO. it is there, in some episodes. and it is awesome :D)

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

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
BUT I DIDN'T EVEN START LIKING SUJU UNTIL THE MOVIE. So, honestly, I was on top of KiHae as soon as I got into fandom!

CinHae moments always make me happy too!

Right up there along with smiley!Bum and nakedwithHae!Bum :333

YES, VERY MUCH YES. :D

[identity profile] phasera.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
awwwwwwwwww. yes. they totally set off my d'awwwwwwww reflex. :) (although, with the HOT, that is also true).

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*

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
I AM ALSO SAD OVER LACK OF KIBUM. :(

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.

[identity profile] sapphynashi.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
Ohh, this brings me back (all of...seven months?? lol) to when you and Bry dragged me (kicking and screaming, you horrible, horrible enablers) into SuJu with that movie. And KiHae. Oh god, conspiring-schoolboys!KiHae jkdghfkj. *sudden and intense craving for movie fic*

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
It feels like forever but it hasn't even been a full year, wow.

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?

[identity profile] sapphynashi.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
ldkjffsdjk please give! Also, one-shot is good. I would attempt to salvage my movie!verse fic, except my non-movie!verse idea is so much better. :D;

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
okay, but I will turn it into a one-shot first! Or smth.

I AM EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT KIAHE FIC FROM YOU.

I don't have space for another KiHae icon T^T

[identity profile] skadihelias.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
KIHAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! My first OTP in SuJu and my favorite forever and ever.

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...

Re: I don't have space for another KiHae icon T^T

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-15 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
THERE SHOULD BE MORE FIC FOR THEM IN THIS WORLD. OR JUST MORE HAPPY INTERACTION. Like in that Marry U fancam. ;o; Oh Kibum, stop acting in those silly dramas and come play with your band. Or at least go film a drama in which you're the star and get chased by lots of girls (or guys!) who want you!

[identity profile] tyreling.livejournal.com 2008-06-17 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
KiHae is so true! All their interactions--so lively, so carefree. <3

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-18 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
They are so cute. I wish Kibum would come out of whatever hole he's been hiding in and be cute and smiley for us again. :( I MISS HIM.

[identity profile] undamage.livejournal.com 2008-06-20 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
This is the most adorable and convincing OTP pimp post ever. 8D Donghae and Kibum are both so squishy and cute and loveable and hot and just...aslkjgh &hearts. I want a thesaurus. D:

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-

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-21 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
All I want is more KiHae fic! :D

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.

[identity profile] undamage.livejournal.com 2008-06-21 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Silly Kihae interaction is love. =] I haven't read a good Kihae fic in a while, though...D:

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-21 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I've written a few but not nearly as many as I should, considering how much I love them, lol. [livejournal.com profile] dokutoku_ai just wrote a huge, lovely, long AU though. *___*

[identity profile] undamage.livejournal.com 2008-06-22 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
I'll have to check your fics out. =] Write more! :O The world needs more good Kihae fic.

The only really epic Kihae I've read recently is [livejournal.com profile] tongzhiai's prison au. Boo hiss D:

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-06-23 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
I adore the prison!au. I'm so sad that she's not writing for SuJu anymore. :( [livejournal.com profile] i_shiki's also written a few KiHae fics but they tend to be short one-shots, not longfics. SuJu fandom in general doesn't get a lot of good longfics, tragically...

[identity profile] undamage.livejournal.com 2008-06-23 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
D: She isn't? That...sucks. I thought she captured their dynamic really well. =( I've read most of [livejournal.com profile] i_shiki's stuff, actually! I'm just terrible about commenting. D:

Side note: I looooove your icon. Oh, Heechul. His Engrish is so win. 8D

[identity profile] nadseventh.livejournal.com 2008-07-09 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
i love your piece on kihae....
lovelovelovelovelovelovelovelove it to bits..!

kihae is my first otp, and still is XD
my only otp in suju
i only read their yaoi XD

thanks for writing this beautiful post,
u make me wanna cry...
:'(
or it's just me that's too emotional..?? keke XD

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-07-12 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
KiHae was my first OTP too, and they are always a huge weakness of mine. I am so biased towards how cute they are. :) ♥

[identity profile] pinocchio-hae.livejournal.com 2008-07-11 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Omg, you just made me love KiHae all over again. They are my OTP, it's funny cuz they became my OTP after I read The Best Days of Our Lives, which was focused on HanChul. For some reasons, I never shipped EunHae, even before I found out about KiHae. I love SJM, but there is no more KiHae, as if there were a lot before. I love how Hae can make Kibum smile and Haeppy. I have no more KiHae fics to read anymore. I've read every fics and drabbles of KiHae in the community, sad.

P.S- I thought you were going to write a sequel or some sorts about the high school au with Kibum's hot arms.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2008-07-12 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
KiHae was my first OTP though I think KangTeuk is my only OTP right now, lol. I just have a gigantic bias for KiHae that I don't shut up about that all of my friends are sick of hearing.

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.
