jongyu ~pimp post~
by: me (with random comments from the peanut gallery aka sonali)
so this is pretty much a pimp post for the jonghyun/onew shinee otp, and I fangirl talk about the two of them individually as well, so you can read even if you're not familiar with them. and you should because jongyu is precious. :DDDD
warning: gif heavy pimp post is gif heavy. go at your own risk.
undamage: BORDER COLLIE AND SHEEP OTP
okay well proof that they're obvs in love
start from the beginning~
ie yunhanam
and the best jongyu moment ever
okay so now that you've seen that, let's start with some basic information. kim jonghyun and lee jinki (onew) are the two oldest members of shinee, and were the only legal members when the group debuted. both are promoted as the ~singers~ of the group and rightfully so, as you'll see when we get to their duets. :3
kim jonghyun
birthday: april 8, 1990
his official nickname is bling bling jonghyun because he wants to ~sparkle~. ...yes. idk.
enormous bias aside, jonghyun is a very gorgeous dork. he's confident in himself, but at the same time he's not as much of a variety show natural as minho or key, but he lights up whenever someone asks him to sing. he takes music and his singing very seriously- he wants to be a composer after being an idol, and wrote the lyrics to juliette. he even sings in his sleep! in yunhanam, he was the most ~smooth with the ladies, but jonghyun's a walking contradiction of combined charisma and awkwardness most of the time. he's very supportive and loving to the other members of shinee, and laughs rather loudly. he's an endearing stupid cow. :3
jonghyun videos:

nothing better juliette acoustic from gayo daejun. look at him oozing charisma, singing fabulously, cockblocking key, and checking out onew.
onew (lee jinki)
birthday: december 14, 1989
he's leader onew, which, yes, makes infinitely more sense than bling bling.
onew is pretty much impossible to hate. he's adorable, handsome, geeky, has a beautiful voice, and is infamous for his body gags and onew sangtae. like jonghyun, he's a huge music geek and a trot geek in particular- onew's pretty much an old man, rofl. he loves bad jokes and puns and tells them all the time on variety shows, and finished in the top two in his class in high school (he also won an episode of star golden bell! smart boy is smart). onew is universally loved by variety show hosts and comedians (particuarly jung joori) probably because they have the same mental age rofl. and well...it's hard not to love onew. look at his
smile. onew videos:
vanilla love music video with lee hyunjii. full of cuteness.

onew on
star golden bell doing gags, donald duck impersonations, and being a gqmf as always
onew pronounces his chinese name as "warm cow". oh yes.
so, why are they an otp?
well, for starters, as you'll see in the huge number of videos, they love to sing with each other, and their voices blend beautifully. jonghyun
greatly enjoys kissing and
hugging onew in public as well. and onew
returns the favor in a less greasy way. they're not as openly skinshippy as, say, jongkey, but they're definitely not subtle.
personality-wise, jonghyun and onew are pretty similar. they're both insanely dorky,
greasy, and embarrassing, but also endearing and sweet. they're the kind of people you'd take home to your parents, and they seem pretty mild-mannered. both of them are ridiculously passionate about music too, and jonghyun said that onew is his favorite to sing with. basically, jongyu are two geeky overaffectionate puppies. :3
and let's not forget:
onew and
jonghyun both ship jongyu. yeah. it's that real. /lame
undamage: how can you not ship them ):
they're so sweet and smiley and good at singing and cute and smushy
and adorable
and endearing
and they whisper things to each other all the time
and jonghyun gets that ridic puppy look on his face whenever onew says something stupid
thump thump thump
isn't she convincing. :|
but let's get real. the best ways to get into a ship are videos, pictures, and fanfiction. so without further ado...
jongyu videos!
"onew hyung, are you watching?" jongyu harmonizingonew

onkeyhyun singing so hotfancam from seoul music awards where they dance together and are otherwise lame and adorable.
this is actually more of a jongkey video, but at the end there's some :3-inducing jongyu.
yes, this is relevant to jongyu. undamage and I decided at some point they're the border collie puppy/baby sheep otp, and then this video came into our lives. yeah don't mock us.
jongyu lipsynching to "please don't go".
jongyu admit to being husband and wife :") fanfiction. honestly, the rec page for
jongyu at
shinierthanthou is a very, very good compilation of jongyu fic. you probably won't go wrong there. this otp is blessed in that while not many people write them, the fic that appears is overall very good. but I'll list my personal favorites anyway (no I'm not reccing myself :|):
