since manipulation can easily happen, a reminder that:

1. ryeowook did not reveal his relationship right before the comeback to cause trouble, he was harassed by a certain group of fans to the point that he was forced to reveal it.

#려욱 #려욱버불

2. the couple kept their relationship low profile, even the media did not catch them or expose them. it was that group of fans that went digging on their mutual friends for proof. they did a musical together & in this age of technology, ofc there'll be pics in group settings.

3. in the clarification, ryeowook said that "super junior is my 1st priority" & it has always been like that, nothing has changed. he worked hard for sj activities, spent time making vlogs for fans when he didn't have to, constantly communicate with fans on bubble etc.

4. ryeowook said that he opened the cafe for his parents. there are speculations that he opened it with his gf who has experience with cafes. even so, why is this an issue? it's his own money, he can invest in whatever and with whoever he wants to.

5. ELF are ever lasting friends not ever-lasting girlfriends. by dating, ryeowook didn't do anything wrong. it doesn't mean that he no longer loves his fans. he can still call his fans "princesses" bc he's been treating them as one. he can love his fans & his gf at the same time.
