It’s been a very long time and I have missed all my readers. I do apologize, but I went on a trip to Rome and had lots of work when I returned. I thank everyone for still visiting my blog and I hope everyone enjoyed what they read. Now I will move on to the article itself. If that title confused you, then that’s okay and that most likely means you have not heard the news that is causing a stir in the Kpop world. SNSD’s Tiffany, born Stephanie Young Hwang, has been revealed as the girlfriend of Nichkhun. Eh?!?!?! That was my initial reaction because I never knew they had any interaction or at least enough to begin dating. The reason I found this a “blindside” was due to her boyfriend being another idol. I didn’t see Sooyoung’s boyfriend coming either, but he was an actor and I’m not that familiar with many actors in the Korean entertainment industry. My reaction to Sooyoung’s was a mix of “She’s been ready for years” and “Who is he now?”, so that should clear things up. I recall news of Tiffany previously saying on an episode of “Radio Star” that she would admit to dating when she was caught, which sounds to me like a way of saying you won’t know until you know. Think about it? Why would we need to hear her say it when we find out? Clever Fany. Now let’s see what we can make of this news.
Tiffany and Nichkhun are idols, so meeting at music shows and the occasional MC event is natural. SNSD and 2PM have interacted before, but this dating “scandal” might be more surprising because it was not hinted to as obviously as Yoona’s situation.

This news has done a few things to fans, which come with some predictable responses. The first effect is the squealing happiness that fans are having for another idol couple (most notable from S0NES) in the industry. The second effect is the typical heartbreak from S0NES and Hottest (2PM fans) about their ideal type or precious idol being “off the market” and taken by someone else. This feeliung usually wears off and sometimes has some fans choosing new ideal types or favorites in the group. Listen up! Eventually all the members of your favorite group will be dating or decide to not date, so this is something to get used to from now. The third and most interesting effect I have seen was the “sinking of the Khuntoria ship”. This is referring to the “We Got Married” (WGM) paring of Nichkhun from 2PM and Victoria from f(x). Popular celebrity couples in any industry generally get a couple name that combines parts of their names together and sometimes a descriptive titles of their natures. WGM has the potential for couples to get names from rearranging or combing their names in Hangul. Some people are still holding out for this couple, but I believe it is not right to wish for the breakup of a couple to fit your needs as a fan matchmaker. Fans of “Khuntoria” will just have to remember what was and what could have been. No hard feelings now. 
Tiffany and Nichkhun were reported to have been close before debut as well, so this is possibly a friendship turned romance. That is generally a gamble and it seems it worked out for them. This news has generally received support like the other news of SNSD dating.

A rare move by SM Entertainment is that they confirmed the relationship and JYP Entertainment backed up that confirmation with one of their own. Now this might not be a big deal because she was “caught” and denial would be odd, but the Kpop fan community will tell you of SM Entertainment’s love for denying to the end. This relationship was reported to be revealed by Sports Seoul. Yeah, I know already. Sports Seoul is infamous for tracking idols for months to get some bit of news that they believe is so important.They are essentially paparazzi, but they are really “dedicated” paparazzi. A representative from SM Entertainment was reported by Soompi to have said “After being friends, the two grew closer to become lovers.”, which is an interesting way to put it. The confirmed count of SNSD dating is now at three, but who knows how many more there are out there. I’m only counting confirmed without much of or any shadow of a doubt relationships, but it’s always fun to play the guessing game. Just play nicely and it can be fun for everyone. Who do you think will be the next pairing? Do you have any pairs in mind for the rest of SNSD, 2PM or both? Comment below and let’s all see what you fans have in mind. ^^
So, do you support this relationship?
Here are some SNSD-2PM and Tiffany-Nichkun moments for all your “Khunfany” fans out there. (Sorry. I’m not good at celebrity couple names >_<)

I wonder how this news about these two idols dating would affect 2pm’s comeback for 2014 or maybe it wouldn’t affect them at all? But my guess for sure is khunfany would garner out a huge number of haters out there.
I doubt it would have a negative impact at this point. Any “haters” have moved on or are overwhelmed by supporters that their opinions don’t register. It probably won’t affect it that much, but Tiffany fans might be inclined to support Nichkhun and 2PM by relation.
