Tiffany did not fly back to Seoul during Jonghyun's funeral now rumor has it that she is in Seoul for Hyorin's wedding? Dispatch even caught her up (prolly future dating scandal; she is under no official agency yet so no profit made) with a fellow LA celebrity from Far East Movement when she is supposed to study and live a private life away from public? Timing isn't right or just bad judgment? Tiffany stans are divided right now.

Everybody knows next to nothing about Tiffany’s life right now. Literally 99% of her life is unknown to people outside of her closest circle. The only 1% we know is she is studying in LA. I don’t think we can even confirm the scope of what she is studying exactly other than perhaps, acting, which she mentioned.

Speculation is dangerous because people may say it’s just speculation but the seed grows in their minds and slowly it becomes ‘fact’ to them. They assume it is true because they think so.

Whenever such things pop up, to me, the only important question to ask is: Do you still believe that Tiffany is a decent person who is full of love and care for others?

If you still believe in the kind of person Tiffany is (as you have seen across all media platforms, and for some, in person - fanmeets, concerts etc) then there is no need to question her timing or judgement.

Sometimes I personally feel that people attach too much importance to rituals and practices. I question if not attending a funeral diminishes the amount of love and concern felt in the heart. What is a funeral for? The dead or the living? Going to a funeral is not about the dead. It is about the living and it is a way for the living to find closure and move on with life. I don’t know why people are judging others based on such a practice.

To me, what matters more is how that person was treated while still alive. As long as Tiffany was nice and kind to Jonghyun while he lived (and Jonghyun would know if she did - which is all that matters), I don’t see the need to judge her based on her funeral attendance.

If funeral attendance is all that matters, what would you say of a person who said unkind things to Jonghyun while he lived, only to attend the funeral and cry like the saddest person on Earth? Would that mean anything to Jonghyun? And would such a person be ranked above Tiffany when being judged?

“Future dating scandal”.

Wow. Are people trying to help Dispatch or do the work for Dispatch? Before any official news media platform even reports anything, people are already creating it for them. If I’m the paparazzi, I would love these people.

I certainly don’t see anything wrong with having contact with an artiste in the music/entertainment industry. She is an artiste in the same industry herself and they have collaborated before. I would sooner find it more interesting if she appears at many places with someone from an unrelated industry like banking or architecture or marine biology or something lol.

Also, if I were a SNSD member, or any idol for that matter, the last place I would choose to date at is this well-known cafe that I’m known to have visited on several occasions, that even fans visit as part of Soshi pilgrimage.

Even Sooyoung with her publicly acknowledged boyfriend weren’t caught at the cafe by Dispatch (they were seen somewhere else when Dispatched revealed it iirc) even though we know Sooyoung goes to that cafe too.

And why would Dispatch blur out his face if they were trying to catch a dating scandal? Wouldn’t they try their best to get the clearest shot of his face instead? So if Dispatch hasn’t said anything, why jump the gun and do the job for them?

“when she is supposed to study and live a private life away from public”

 When did it become ‘supposed to’?

The privacy is self-imposed. She chose not to post about it on her SNS. It is her right to reveal or not to. She is not ‘supposed to’ do anything. She can jolly well do whatever she likes, study or not, date or not, be public or not.

If there’s any issue with what she’s doing, it is the business of her family, friends and SNSD members to tell her. And I’m sure they will be the first to tell her, because they know the situation much better. I hardly think fans or general public would know anything better than them.
