Another Opinion/Rant article! First off, I need to say that I will be on hiatus for all of my fanfictions. I've just been so crammed with school that I haven't had time to just relax and write a chapter. I'll probably be posting on very bila mpangilio days, so just keep looking at the makala section for the series that you're looking mbele to!

So, at the very start of 2014, this title has been used for a while in the media: Dating Generation. If wewe don't know why it's being referred to that, then wewe must be living underneath a rock. This is basically what the news has alisema since and I'll just be shortening it to the main points.

January 1st: Happy New Year! As a present for us, Sones, Yoona and Lee Seung gi were revealed to be dating! The relationship started back in September, and had managed to keep it on the down low until Dispatch revealed pictures of the two on a date. SM had confirmed this statement shortly after, making Yoona the first Soshi member to reveal their relationship.


January 3rd: Two days after, Dispatch again revealed pictures of Sooyoung and actor Jung Kyung Ho. Again, SM had confirmed that they are indeed a couple, and have been dating for a year. They have both been linked to dating rumors twice before it was confirmed.


April 1st: Warning: This isn't an April Fools prank! Unfortunately, Hyoyeon was revealed to have been reported for assault after accidentally hitting her "male friend" in the eye. Basically, the guy was scared about her since she was joking about jumping off the sekunde floor and wanted to stop her, but then... yeah, wewe can connect the dots. Two days later, it was revealed that the "male friend" was her ex-boyfriend.


April 3rd: The same siku that it was revealed that Hyoyeon's ex was the person that reported her, Sports Seoul had also revealed the 4 mwezi relationship between Tiffany and Nichkhun! JYP and SM had both confirmed this relationship, starting that they've been Marafiki for years but had only recently started dating.


This had basically what has happened in the short span of this year. Now, if idols decide to publicly announce that they're in a relationship, then I'm all for it, since they're people who also have feelings like us and should be able to have that right to enjoy their lives.

But, there's always a downside towards this happening.
1) zaidi people are going to be eyeing them whenever they might have a date, which means no privacy whatsoever.
2) They're going to have the topic brought up anywhere and everywhere.
3) Jealous mashabiki are going to continue bashing the person with their inayopendelewa idol, even though they don't really have a chance being in a relationship with them anyway, and might leave the fanbase ultimately.

Let's go through these one kwa one:
1) zaidi people are going to be eyeing them whenever they might have a date, which means no privacy whatsoever.
I can see how that can be a problem. Sometimes, when you're in a relationship, you'd like to be alone with that person without anyone watching you. If only these people had something better to do with their lives...

2) They're going to have the topic brought up anywhere and everywhere.
This is the main bad point of having a public relationship. The media wants a story out of old news, and will disregard some boundaries just for that reason, and once they do it, they won't stop until they get their scoop. If anything, the media should just stick to the main purpose of why these idols are actually there on their show, instead of bringing up their relationship every 5 seconds.

3) Jealous mashabiki are going to continue bashing the person with their inayopendelewa idol, even though they don't really have a chance being in a relationship with them anyway, and might leave the fanbase ultimately.
Now this is just stupid. If only these types of mashabiki had some common sense and realize that these idols have their own personal lives too, and that they aren't programmed to please wewe all of the time. Just accept it and songesha on!

I realize that the people at Dispatch and Sports Seoul may be to blame for all of these since the idols probably didn't want the public to know about their relationship, but if they gave their company a consent allowing them to hakikisha it, then that's fine. The company wouldn't have confirmed it if the idol in swali didn't want to. That would just be a rude and unprofessional move.

Oh whelp, no matter what happens throughout the entire thing, I'll keep supporting these relationships until the end of time... au until they break up. :P

Thanks for reading, please no bashing, and I'll see wewe guys at the inayofuata article! Bye!
