Shindong Is Getting Married!

Garnering much interests for losing 20kg early last year, Super Junior ShinDong revealed that he had gone on a diet so as to get together with his girlfriend, who broke up with him, again.
ShinDong talked about his girlfriend, 2 years younger than him, that on SBS Strong Heart aired on 6th July. He explained, “To say the truth, my girlfriend is a junior at college. I’m in the class of 04 and she is in the class of 06. I did not meet my girlfriend until graduation. I received my graduation album and I was asked if I received my TA and I joked “Can I choose from here?’. So there was this photo of my girlfriend in the album, and when I saw it, I said ‘this is the one’ and I asked for the professor to link us up.”

ShinDong said, “We were going out for about 1 year when we told our parents about it but they objected so we broke up. Back then my weight was 104 kg, and it was hard gaining weight. I guess it was because I kept eating.”
He continued, “So I started my diet and shed 24 kg. To say the truth, after I broke up with my girlfriend, I had a phone conversation with her, and she made an unreasonable request for me to loose weight. I lost 10 kg but she refused to get back with me. So I lost another 10 kg and in all I lost 20 kg, and finally she got back with me.”
Also on the show that day, ShinDong revealed that he is currently preparing to get married with his girlfriend. And he did a video message to his girlfriend on the show, “I have not proposed properly to you yet. Nari ah, the thing I feel the most after I’ve met you is that without you I feel heartache. And I feel for the first time that if there is you, I would feel happy always. Will you be with me happily forever? Will you marry me?”
ShinDong also did a video message to both their parents, “I have confidence. Because I have confidence that we will be happy forever, please approve and bless us.”

Everyone on SJ-World is happy for him, but am I the only one who is bothered by this? Why do I get the feeling that Nari takes Shindong for granted so often? Shindong, after having proposed to her, mentioned on a show that she was ignoring him after his proposal... and this news.. that she broke up with him because of his weight is unsettling, to say the least.

I'm one of those people who isn't possessive over the boys. If they get girlfriends, so be it! If they're happy, I'm happy. It's easy to say, I know, but they deserve to love and be loved for real. I may not be possessive, but I am protective. (My sister and I were talking about this recently) I don't like keeping them all to myself; but I do have a problem when someone likes them for the wrong reasons, and I get rattled when a girl abuses their kind nature. (case in point: ISF, which I will talk about in another entry)

So for me to read this about Nari.. it speaks a lot about her character. I want the best for Shindong and I actually feel that he is the most susceptible to heartaches. She's pretty and he probably thinks she's a good catch, and he'll probably do whatever it takes to keep her happy - and this worries me. I don't want Shindong bending over backwards and working so hard just to please someone. That someone should love him for him; Not his celebrity status, not his idol connections, not his weight.

Don't get me wrong, I want him to get married. I really do. I'm real happy that he's found someone to call his own, but I'm just afraid that he's settling for a pretty girl who reciprocates his feelings.
