• I... I am genuinely confused.

  • Me too!!!!

    • Must be an obsession. If no love in marriage kids suffer.

• The craziest thing I heard in my whole life. All the best to them if it is true.

• Best wtf 2015 kdrama......congratulations!

• Seriously, I am at a loss for words. This is a never ending crazy drama. I don't get it at all. Is he trying to kill his career or make amends? I'm so confused.

• That's one messed up kid in the making.

  • yeah... imagine reading about your dad's and mum's drama on the web when you are much older... if I was the kid, think I might end up questioning how I came about (not in the biological sense)...

    • I sincerely hope that he/she will read all this drama on the internet instead of witnessing dad abusing mom with his/her own eyes.

    • A lot of people bashed up KHJ but I was neutral. See what happened now. If he truly abused her so badly until she reported him, would any sane girl get back with him? If truly this news turned out to be real she is as wacky as him. And in fact KHJ must have really loved her otherwise why would they reconcile and now have baby? Nothing justified abuse but there's certainly more to the story on the girl's side. I don't want to get trashed for such comments here as some of you are very very mean. But I need to say this and for the record I am not his fan.

  • Just a few thoughts about abusive relationships. Sadly in many abusive relationships the woman is not able to leave the man, she falls again for his promises that he only loves her and his apologies. That's why such relationships are able to last for decades. This terrible mixed-up circle of love and violence is hard to break.

    These two getting back together does not mean, that he is the good guy. Or that she was lying.

    • Oops. I tried to respond to Shue Rei.

    • Hi newbie, thanks for your response...
      She appears to know her rights on reporting him. So if she got back with him, then it's either he is not really bad or she is not as totally clueless. By reporting him, nobody wants to be his gf anymore and his reputation is tainted..and yet he got back with her .. So yeah you are right, this need doesn't prove whether who is right:wrong, good:bad... What is clear here is that all of us are responding to this news when we have better things to do... Haha...cheers

    • Newbie,
      Am I condoning abuse? I am not. Please don't read into something not stated. I am just saying that if the woman wants to stay on an "abusive relationship" - we need to ask questions.... Why?
      1. The women are either financially dependent (some with children) on the men (those we truly sympathize) 2 But others even stayed on for only "love" - yes blame the men but the women also stayed on despite having other avenues also share part of the blame. It's like saying "please don't leave me and please love me even though you are abusing me".

    • It is an unfortunate myth, popular in many cultures, that a "good woman" can cure the ills/evils of the man she loves. A lot is made about the redemptive power of love, but as far as I can see redemption is actually a lot of hard work that has to come from inside oneself. Too many women buy into this idea: that because they love their man the drinking will stop, the beatings will stop, the gambling will stop. They keep believing, a sort of magical thinking, that if they just keep on hoping, and believing every protestation of reform, that it is actually going to happen. This hope, this need for their love be true and transformative, that's what keeps them there, year after year. So in this case, she may just be thinking that it is all behind them, that her love/a baby/marriage/the military is going to make everything all better. Sigh.

• What the????!! So drama.
  Ok I get it now...so he beats her (the ribs..urgh), she charges him, he apologizes, they have some great make up sex, she's pregnant and they are getting married,
  Let the games of the crazy fans begin.
  Poor oppa was probably conned to bed, she took advantage of him!!! (Yeah right)

  • @ stardust
    Haha! Just like you said, probably that's what took place. Sigh if only all other actors are that easy to manipulate... But I can bet you some mean people here would love to trash KHJ just to let go their own personal frustration in life. No matter what happened between the couple they would still paint him as "hitler"

    • Pretty sure the other commenter was being sarcastic. Just because this is happening does not mean he did not beat her up, or that he won't do it again. It is far from being uncommon for the abused to get back with their abuser. Actually this happens most of the time. They even gave it a name, It's called The Cycle of abuse.

    • @ Shute rei
      Stardust is being sarcastic. You just prove her point. LOL

• Because having unprotected sex with your abuser makes PERFECT SENSE.

  • Stockholm Syndrome? I wish I could say that she is dumb and selfish for staying with him and bringing an innocent child into an abusive relationship, but victim's mind is complicated and not well understood.

    • It is so preventable. Have the sex but not the pregnancy.

    • It's up to her. She is smart enough to report him and she is smart enough to do it again if he really abused her. She can also divorce him if she couldn't stand the marriage. Don't always paint him as 100 percent bad guy. You are really sour grape.

    • Shue Rei - in your first comment you ask the people not to trash you, yet you're setting a quite different tone along the line...

      Well known and accepted facts about abusive relationsships should not be ignored.

  • You should take into account though the pyschological affects of being in an abusive relationship. Women stay because they think their parents love them. Women stay because they aren't aware they are being abused. Women stay because they feel they have no choice. There are so many reasons they could be staying. It could be the guy has groomed her. It could be there is manipulation going on. A lot of what is illogical or non-sensical to outsiders looking at abusive relationship is because we just see someone that could EASILY leave when that kind of thinking is very narrow.

    • *effects, not affects. My apologies.

    • Ugh, sorry. I have a lot of spelling errors. partners, not parents.

    • My comment was about havingunprotected sex.

  • @jomo

    It makes no difference that it could have been easily 'preventable'. In a normal relationship yes. In abusive one, no. As banana and newbie say, the cycle of abuse is very difficult to escape. Abusers are incredibly manipulative and be the nicest person in the world in one moment and the devil in the next.

    I'm not willing to judge this girl at all. Read up on abusive relationships and talk to people who have escaped these relationships, that's all I can suggest to you.

    • I am going to keep clarifying my comment because my point seems to be lost.
      I am not saying that their having sex was preventable, but that pregnancy was.
      Of course I understand how abusive relations work.

      They dated for two years. I am going to assume that she did not get pregnant previously because they took precautions. He is an idol with a HUGE fanbase. The risk of pregnancy is too big for anyone not to take it seriously, let alone someone who;s livlihood depends on him appearing to be single. He MUST have know he had better either wear a condom or verify she was on some sort of contraception.

    • @ Jomo
      No matter how much you clarify / some people will misinterpret you as they have already made up their minds on:
      1. KJH is abuser, KJH will continue to abuse
      2. The girl is 100 percent innocent, abused, manipulated etc
      3. People are supporting the marriage and baby to an abuser
      4. People don't understand the mentality of abused victims
      You can talk about Obama but some readers here will still pick on you unless you condemn KJH 100%

• I CANNOT.

• WTF!!!! Cycle of abuse goes on. Poor mother and kid. Hopefully they will stay safe and get out of this toxic relationship before its too late.

  • Why are you guys all judging him it takes two, nobody knows the true story. women are abusers also just as much as men are.none of us were there ,so what are you guys getting off up making these accusations..get over it....its the past ?

• So Jihoo sunbae will be the first one to marry. And that girl is totally dumb. No sympathy.
