The two photos gradually blended together, and then a scene that surprised the audience appeared.
"Everyone can see that Juhyun and Irene’s body shapes in the photos are almost identical, including the proportions. If we have to point out a difference, maybe Juhyun is slightly thinner?"
"Of course, just having a similar body shape is not enough to prove anything conclusively, so next, I will show the second similarity I found..."
The overlapping photos disappeared, replaced by a close-up photo of a hand.
"This is Juhyun’s hand. Well... there’s nothing particularly distinctive about it. The fingers aren’t long, and it looks a bit chubby, very cute."
"And this... is Irene’s hand."
"Of course, these are still not decisive evidence. It’s normal to find some people with similar features in such a big world. Next, there’s something I wonder if everyone has noticed. In March this year, Xin’an celebrated Juhyun’s birthday."
"If any of you have followed Juhyun’s account, you must remember the two figurines she posted before. But don’t be mistaken, those figurines were not birthday gifts from Xin’an to Juhyun!"
The video creator found that video and also found a comment from ’Financially Shallow,’ then marked the time in the screenshot.
"Those figurines were a gift Xin’an prepared for Juhyun for their 100-day anniversary, and at the same time, Xin’an received headphones from Juhyun. Both Xin’an and Juhyun had posted about this online."
"But on March 29, ten days after March 19, was Juhyun’s birthday. Juhyun mentioned this in her post, but... would someone as attentive as Xin’an not give Juhyun a birthday gift?"
"The answer is no. Everyone knows Xin’an is very considerate. He must have given Juhyun a birthday gift, but Juhyun didn’t post about it. So... we are left with a question mark here because no one knows exactly what birthday gift Xin’an gave Juhyun."
"But March 29 is not just Juhyun’s birthday. It is also Irene’s birthday."
"Fans who don’t follow celebrities may not know that in Korea, there’s an app called Bubble, where Irene can send messages to fans, just like our group chats. I asked a few fans, and they have a deep impression of that day because Irene posted a selfie." ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Soon, the video creator put up that photo. In the photo, Bae Juhyun still had an impeccable smile, and she playfully pointed to a purple crystal hairpin in her hair.
"Although Irene didn’t say anything, we can reasonably suspect this was a birthday gift she received on her birthday."
"And this hairpin is the truly critical element."
Liu Xin’an was stunned upon hearing this. He raised his eyebrows in surprise, shifted in his seat to sit more comfortably, and continued to watch the video.
The progress bar was only halfway through, meaning... even though he had been this cautious, this fan still noticed so many details?
But the hairpin... what’s there to reveal?
Liu Xin’an didn’t remember any mistakes he and Bae Juhyun had made regarding the hairpin.
The video continued playing, and soon, the data that the content creator presented made Liu Xin’an’s eyes widen.
"Not long ago, Xin’an and Wendy, a member of the group to which Irene belongs, shot a variety show together. We’re not focusing on Wendy here. What we should really pay attention to is the video featuring Irene and Xin’an."
"Recently, the rumors about Xin’an and Irene as a couple have been very popular. We, as the audience, don’t know if there’s someone behind this pushing it or if we spontaneously started shipping this couple, but it’s undeniable that both Xin’an and Irene have benefited from this wave of interest."
"Irene has shot promotional videos with several team leaders, but only the promotional video with Xin’an was released on the afternoon of the show’s broadcast, just to maximize the hype... This is very normal and not unusual. If I were the staff, I would do the same."
"And the real issue is... the hairpin."
"When I noticed something odd about the hairpin, I discovered a particular pattern. Irene only wears the hairpin when filming promotional videos with Xin’an... No, to be precise, in all the candid fan photos, as long as she is in the same frame as Xin’an, the hairpin just happens to appear in Irene’s hair."
"Let’s continue assuming, let’s assume! If all of this is just a coincidence, that all the photos and promotional videos simply show Irene coincidentally wanting to wear this hair accessory... do you remember when Irene first wore this hair accessory?"
"Right, on the day of her birthday."
"If it was a birthday gift, it would be very precious to a woman. And if it was a gift from her boyfriend, she would definitely wear it when meeting him. The idea of women dressing up for men they like is something everyone understands."
Liu Xin’an was truly stunned. He hadn’t noticed this at all.
Bae Juhyun had never proactively mentioned it to him either.
As for whether what the content creator said was true... to be honest, Liu Xin’an believed 80% of it.
