Yes, it's still going. My friend keeps telling me things like 'don't tell anyone, but Yunho called Jaejoong when he's in the hospital. They're totally still in love!' and sends me links and pictures that's supposed to prove their relationship. It's fun in the beginning, but it's getting a bit too disturbing. I'm over them now because of the reasons in the secret above, but I can't tell that to my friends. I don't think they'll appreciate me saying that I think they're only seeing things, and they'll laugh if I say I can't read fics anymore because I feel guilty.

Yeah not gonna lie, part of the fun of shipping is finding little bits of 'evidence' here and there - but it's just that: fun. It should be silly and make you giggle. I've always told myself, The day I take Kpop seriously is the day I leave the fandom.

It's a shame you don't read fics any more but I think that's... normal... I had one OTP my friends and I thought were real and then ten years later some new canon came up that kind of dashed it and killed my boner. But also, it was ten years later so my attachment to that ship had waned considerably.

Yeah, it's definitely fun. It's just that IMO in YunJae fandom, the fun has turned into creepy, like that one time my friend showed me a picture of what's supposed to be the receipt for Jaejoong's gift for Yunho. Even if it's not real, it's just not right. The fans' obsession honestly sucks the fun out of shipping it (at least for me).

I still read fics sometimes, but not YunJae. I avoid them at all costs nowadays. Now I mostly read HoMin because the fans are far less obsessive and I think they look hot(ter than YunJae) together. But that's another secret for another time :D

Oh dear, that receipt =/ Yes I can understand that. Shipping aside, I'm not a huge fan of finding out about their private lives to be honest, as like you, it gives me the heeby-jeebies and makes me feel guilty, and I don't find it fun. I do like learning about their working lives though, through their promo stuff like off-shoot movies, but as soon as fans share private information it gets too much for me, even though I think a lot of that info that gets leaked to ifandom is probably 80% bullshit. Also you can tell when they get photographed leaving restaurants and stuff they don't look happy to be stalked.

Oh yes as you can probably tell from my icon I like HoMin a lot =D I think its shippers are sort of lucky to be not quite but almost post-YunJae so they've learnt not to make certain assumptions and mistakes, and I know that if I read 'homin is real' I I can trust it's only hyperbole. But of course it's got its own 'evidence' too; I remember spaghetti carbonara, my friends and I went a bit spastic over that. And then of course when B&L first came out... lol. But it's all just fun, you can tell they're having a ball with it, especially Yunho.
