@sis Humilis: thank you for posting this video which will go well with my post.
Some said that Shin Hye only hugged LMH in public. This video will show you that since 2009 JKS+PSH got into the habit of always wishing each other with a hug. Mind you that she doesn't avoid but moves forward to return the favour.
After the Garden 5 CF, JKS walked over to her for a hug. This was not among a surrounding of people who they know but in a mall which we call public. Check out the video for more info.
Yes, i find that JKS is very tender and treats our Shin Hye with respect. Be it to taking off his coat, opening the car door and placing her in front of him on occasions. One example, you will see at Melon Awards in this video. He puts her under the lime light, whereas I've not seen him doing that with his other costars. In this video watch and you will see that there are clips of Shin Hye going up just to hug JKS. It may not be in this video but there was one clip where Shin Hye was hugging JKS during a break and JKS told her that there are fans watching. She turned around and waved to them.
In reality, i must say that our Shin Hye has a very innocent mind and so playful with all her costars. Her costars can't help but admire her for being an open minded and out spoken person. She is well respected in the industry because she doesn't fool around with all her costars. I love her for being a very honest and decent person.
