Joong said he doesn't deserve us, but honestly? It's us who don't deserve him.
He wears his heart on his sleeve. He gives so much of himself, and somehow people still keep demanding more from him. More interaction. More recognition. More โcute moments.โ More proof that he cares.
And I'm fucking tired of it.
The SAME people who were dragging Joong and Dunk, saying they didn't care about their fans, insisting they needed to โgive feedback,โ are suddenly crying, โDon't cry,โ โStay together forever,โ and talking about how much they love them.
Do you actually hear yourselves?
Do you understand that your words fucking hurt them?
You cannot spend days telling two people that they don't care, that they aren't doing enough, that they aren't giving you enough attention, and then suddenly expect them to feel nothing when you turn around and tell them how much you love them.
You don't get to demand emotional reassurance from people while completely ignoring their emotions.
Why don't you believe in them?
Why don't you trust them?
They have repeatedly shown you who they are and told you what they need. Yet somehow, every time they don't behave exactly how you want, you decide they must not care. You question them. You complain. You demand explanations. You tag them in the negativity. And then you act shocked when they're tired and fed up with it.
They see it.
Stop pretending they don't.
They see the posts. They see the tags. They see the constant complaints and the accusations. They see the people who claim to love them tearing apart everything they do because it isn't enough for them.
And then you wonder why they seem exhausted.
This isn't about โfeedbackโ anymore when you've already been told how much this negativity hurts them. At some point, you have to take responsibility for your own behaviour.
Joong and Dunk are HUMAN BEINGS. They don't exist to constantly reassure you, entertain you, acknowledge you, or perform the relationship you have created in your head.
Their lives do not revolve around satisfying your expectations.
If you genuinely love them, start acting like it.
Listen to them. Believe them. Trust them. Respect their boundaries.
Because if your version of โsupportโ requires two people to constantly prove that they love and appreciate you, then maybe you need to stop and ask yourself who you're actually supporting.
They deserve better than conditional love.
They deserve better than fans who only love them when they're getting exactly what they want.
And most importantly, they deserve to feel safe enough to be honest with the people who claim to love them.
