Forget how shocking the news of Nicky Wu and Liu Shi Shi dating a good two plus years after they first co-starred in Bu Bu Jing Xin together. I vividly remember the drama casting backlash – Nicky too old and ugly, Kevin too old and ugly, Shi Shi not enough screen presence to play Ruo Xi, why is Yuan Hong not the lead, who the heck is Lin Geng Xin and why he is 14th Prince, and on and on. Even during the filming everything looked chintzy and small scale. Fans of the novel were writing off the drama, and fans of the actors were just praying this wouldn’t bomb that badly. Of course the result was probably the biggest drama pleasant surprise ever, with everything clicking, especially the chemistry between Shi Shi and Nicky. Their real life age difference worked because their characters had an equally as big age difference. But chemistry is chemistry and they had it in spades. I hope for the same onscreen chemistry between seemingly miscast coupling of Lee Bum Soo and Yoona in Prime Minister and I. I can hope, right?
Since the confirmation of their relationship, their entertainment industry friends have showered the couple with well-wishes, but its been a rockier road with their respective fandoms. For some reason, Shi Shi’s fandom loathes Nicky, and his fandom is a bit better towards Shi Shi but they hate her fandom. Her fandom thinks he’s too old for her and the divorced bit makes them think he’s used goods (kids these days), while his fandom thinks she’s too young and flighty for him and they don’t want him played. I think its ridiculous for fandoms to have any say in who their fave entertainer dates or marries in real life, and I hope the extreme fans in both Shi Shi and Nicky’s fandoms grow up quickly and simmer down. Judging by the media and fan attention, this couple is probably the most high profile dating reveal in C-ent this year. Check out some cute pics of them doing a couple’s CF and watch some LongShi MVs for fun.
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…
If I didn't know this drama was a romance set in space and done K-drama…

Just wait until these people get to an age where basically everyone's "used goods"; maybe they can cry into their cats for comfort.
LOL. I wish them the best. They look lovely together.
I'm waiting for the day I get to experience this by chance and I say by chance because its all about 2 souls finding love, happiness and comfort with each other. I'm still holding out hope for YEH & KJH hehe...
Congrats to this couple, they are cuuute together!
Huh they started to date after BBJX? I was under the impression they only started dating very recently.
I did not know the fandoms were that insane. Clearly I follow the right people on Tumblr because everyone I have talked to is ecstatic. I am still squealing about them. Ugh, why can't people just let the be happy!?
Their fandoms are just ridic!!
I'm just basking in LongShi happiness here ~
It's really funny how everyone thought BBJX would suck lol and now all of them are megasuperstars and the show kind of went down in history like that XD
He is old and ugly. Can't wait until they break-up and slap fans in the face.
I just laugh and laugh at this.
You're such a negative person? Damn! Grow up!
It will be a long winding road for them given the high profile. But it seems like both of them have the maturity and EQ to handle the pressure. Hope they stay true to their hearts and not be affected by public opinion. P.S. I always thought Nicky is one of the most desirable bachelors out there, can't believe people think he is too old and is damaged goods. SIGH!!!!
Best wishes to them.
Parts of LSS's fandom IS ridiculous. I understand if they were concerned that she would get hurt because he's older, more experience, but truth is they look like they are just butthurt over her not dating Hu Ge or Yuan Hong. And that's beyond ridiculous.
I never expected them to date because I didn't even think they were each others' type. But SS seems sensible and sweet and Nicky is goofy but extremely loyal, so I don't understand why people can't just be happy for them.
I agree that fans have no say, which is why you can be happy or not happy for them, but going around and spreading hate is gross.
Actually, Nicky's fans can be equally as extreme and ridiculous, and I've seen PLENTY of them on Weibo.. They literally make up things. In my eyes, they are all just the same.
Well, I can't read Chinese so I only speak about the English-speaking people then. If his fans are acting out too, then yes shame on them too! I don't even know what they have to be mad about since LSS seems perfectly nice and the man hasn't dated for years!
Do you know that Nicky spent the Christmas vacation with LSS？As soon as Nicky’s fans know that，they went to comment on LSS‘s sina weibo（similar to Twitter）to thank her to give him the warmth of home，he finally find a girl to keep a light on for him， I was touched by their love to Nicky，I hope LSS’s fans can finally know that their idol is in love with a man who has a magnetic personality
these two are so cuteeee. on a side note, i couldn't stop thinking that liu shi shi looks like crystal liu. anyone else? :O
i didn't really know their fans hated each other. What i read so far is all positive posting and not to mention …. a lot of happiness posting from fans.
Whatever the case. I wish them both happiness because they are truly cute together!!
Have any of the fans know there is a LONGSHI bar in Baidu. These, are an armies of LONGSHI fans!!
