Ta-da!!!!!!!!
It's:
Ultimately - it's simple. For me, it is all about Hyemi. And Jin Gook is making my girl miserable while Sam Dong is making her happy. It's one thing when he was the one she could cry in front of, it's another if he's the one who's the cause of her tears.
I like Jin Gook. He's a good guy, even if horribly confused about his priorities, understandably so due to his awful family issues (he needs a parent a heck of a lot more than he does a girlfriend). And if Hyemi/JG are the endgame, I am fine with it (if he gets to suffer properly first). BUT - for now I am not on that ship because he needs to pay for leaving her alone for 6 months and for making her cry and for seemingly choosing Baekhee over her and just generally not being there for her. I shipped Hyemi/Jin Gook when he was her white knight - the first six eps had me rabidly shipping them. I don't begrudge him his feet of clay but my shipping preference for him to get the girl disappeared the moment he lost the "who takes better care of Hyemi" contest to his issues - I mean, whenever she's been in trouble, where was he? Causing it directly (by debuting without her despite his promise) or indirectly (his rabid fangirls roughing her up) or just not being there (who took care of her after Baekhee slammed her to the press? Who was by her side for 6 months when Jin Gook was touring God knows where? Sam Dong, that's who).
There is no doubt, JG and Hyemi are hot together - their angry, passionate chemistry is really off the charts, imo. But lately every such angry/passionate/chemistryfull interaction is leaving me with a lump in the pit of my stomach because they are both so hurt - I don't like being made miserable and Sam Dong makes her laugh and takes care of her and is just awesome with her. Sure, he's a bit immature, but he's growing fast (see the scene where he cofronts JG in ep 9 - eeeeeeek, where did the sweet unworldly bumpkin go? That was somethig elee) and...
OK, I better stop rambling.
Short version: Team Sam Dong. For now. Even if this was hella awesome:
