i was asked to remake this post from decades a few years ago because it somehow got deleted and tbh i can’t remember the content exactly but i will try my best so here we go
i’ve been asked to remake this lots of times if i’m honest but i was lazy however the boys are back and i’m feeling sentimental so why not also this was tricky because a lot of my posts got removed/deleted/idk so if you have anything to add feel free to message me on this blog
basically omg i’m going through videos and this was literally five years ago how i am supposed to donghae started wearing a ring on his left ring finger *looks at the camera* during his first duet promotions with hyukjae (for oppa oppa in december 2011)
at first of course i thought it was just an accessory/stage ring type of deal but....... then.......
he filmed we got married (omg lol remember that Disaster everyone)- multiple days/episodes but i’m not gonna show each one during this time and
no ring during the filming at all. now this could have been because if it were personal he wouldn’t wanna wear it during a variety show (especially considering what followed lmao) and if it were just a stage ring well then it’s just a stage ring/accessory and he’s not wearing it. boom. simple.
december 26 2011 sukira radio show
oh hello (casual clothes and that ring okay nice one donghai- so not stage and not something a stylist gave him to wear..... but.... there’s more....)
i couldn’t find any good gifs (in the two seconds i spent looking) so (here) is a video you can kiiiinda see the ring but not really so here’s a pic
selca afterward- again casual clothes (not his tux or stage outfit) + the ring lol
january 19, 2012 the iconic sma
wore it on a red carpet again
(i remember) (this day) (was such) (a busy week) (for us) <- links
also idk if i said this before but i’m older and wiser and thinking it now so... imagine for a moment you are wearing a personal and expensive ring on your ring finger and This is how you are behaving around another person i just... wild... how did people not... anyway
and this was truly something so... (this) was also filmed the same day (note the outfits) and donghae is giving a solo interview and at first i was looking for the ring on his ring finger and it wasn’t there but then he went to fix his hair and.... he’d switched his ring to his right hand (14:50 on his pinky lol) now let me just... he’s giving a Solo Individual interview Alone and moved his ring???? i wonder why... i know why
but when asked about hyukjae (14:20) he starts playing with it lol can’t help himself the subconcious mind is incredible god bleess
he also wore it in airports/public on multiple separate occasions (and i apologize but it’s been so long and i can’t find the videos but i’ve got gifs so)
and i‘m one hundred percent sure i left some stuff out but it’s been so long i’m sorry i hope this helps though
-started wearing it during his promo with hyukjae
-didn’t wear it for variety shows
-but wore in like airports and selcas etc
-you say “i can’t believe it’s been five years”
