#BBYU and #SungJoy couple ship are still alive!
It's been five years since Red Velvet's Joy and BTOB's Sungjae joined the reality program "We Got Married" in 2015, but their die-hard shippers just can let go of their pairing and continue to talk about them to date.
Despite not having work and projects together since then, fans are continuously supporting the loveteam's individual activities, proving their loyalty to the #BBBYU couple.
On May 20, fans and shippers of the male and female idols celebrated Sungjae's new Korean drama, "Mystic Pop-Up Bar," which finally aired its premiere. And on the same day, Red Velvet's Joy's collaboration song with Crush was released.

Fans of the two were spotted overjoyed on social media and were congratulating both of them for their successful individual projects.
"Mystic Pop-Up Bar" tells the story of an outdoor bar owner who can travel into three different worlds and heal people's internal wounds through dreams. Sungjae will play the role of Han Kang Bae, a mysterious character with supernatural powers that viewers should anticipate in the drama.
Meanwhile, Joy worked together with singer Crush for the track "Mayday," a song dedicated to people amidst the coronavirus pandemic, conveying the current situation through music.
As both projects were released, the loveteam's fans just couldn't help but reminisce about their memories, and even claimed that there will always be a connection between the two no matter what.
In the music video of "Mayday," there's a scene wherein Joy acts tough as she pinned Crush in the wall.

Seeing this, netizens remembered the scene in "We Got Married" when Sungjae did the same to Joy. However, compared to her reaction, the female idol undoubtedly lost her chill around the male star.
Moreover, fans are creating memes about #Sungjoy and Crush.
Meanwhile, in the teaser video of Sungjae's drama, fans think that there are some scenarios in the drama that resemble the scenes in "We Got Married" between the male idol-actor and Rev Velvet's Joy, such as doing the "Kabedon" and watching movies together.
With netizens hyped about these updates, #Sungjoy or #BBYU couple ship continues to sail. At the same time, with other K-pop enthusiasts who take an interest in their reality show episode, their fandom base is gradually growing, being one of the best ships in K-pop.
