Counting down the days till Hyungsik's military discharge!
(201218, D-17)
In light of the occasion, I knew exactly what today's countdown image(s) needed to be.
From the end of the 2013 Gayos, this is what Unnie and I call a "Luke hugged Wedge!" moment. 😯 Hyung-ssi was one of the MCs, "Happy New Year!" was just announced, and Jonghyun turns, making eye contact with Hyung-ssi.
...and moves toward him, already reaching out...
...literally reaching over the microphone that this man tries to hand him... 😂
CONTACT! 🥰🥰🥰
It's such a good hug. 💕 Look how Hyung-ssi (who is Minho's height) folds around him, chin hooked over his shoulder and both hands on his back. 🥺
And this precious little moment takes place when Hyung-ssi starts to let go (note the missing second arm) but Jonghyun's still holding on 😭, so he moves back in for another second.
You can watch this moment (so much better than just piecing it together from screenshots) around 2:08 in this vid:
And around 0:51 here (slightly different angle - you get to see Hyung-ssi's arm just thwump around Jonghyun 🥰 - and there's that fabulous JongHo hug at the beginning and a sneaky glimpse of MinSik 🤩 after the Jonghyun/Hyung-ssi hug!).
