Title: Your Smile Lights Up the Room
Author: meitachi
Fandom: Super Junior
Pairing: Kim Kibum/Lee Donghae
Disclaimer: Not my boys.
I had this half-finished from a KiHae pimp post I did a few months back, so part of this might seem familiar to some people.
WHY I LOVE KIHAE
aka Why I Think It Works
All credits on pictures. I really have no idea where I stole them from anymore, sorry. :(
Kim Kibum:
dob: 21 August 1987
occupation: singer, dancer, actor, model
member of: Super Junior
Trufax: Kibum is so attractive, people. I have heard this from guys, from my mother, from Chinese ladies twice my age, and girls who have no idea who he is. The world is in consensus about his very, very amazing genes.
Lee Donghae:
dob: 15 October 1986
occupation: singer, dancer, actor
member of: Super Junior, Super Junior-M
Trufax: Donghae is ridiculously cuute and smoking hot at the same time. and it does bad things to my heart.
KIHAE
I actually haven't spent that much time analyzing and over-analyzing the relationship dynamics here, like I have with KangTeuk. I think I can pretty much say at first it was because of the movie (which was my introduction to SuJu fandom, so it will always hold the ultimate sway over my heart), and then it was because I saw how much Donghae made Kibum smile.
I love Kibum's smile. :) It's one of my favorite things in the world. That golden sunshine smile with those perfect teeth and, well, he doesn't smile it all that often anymore. He even commented on that himself in his Arirang monologue, which made me incredibly sad.
But Donghae makes him smile. Donghae is one of Kibum's favorite hyungs, the first one to welcome him to Korea, the one he used to follow around while he was so small (THOSE PICTURES! THEY'RE TERRIFYING IN HOW SMALL KIBUM USED TO BE). Even now, Donghae is the one who makes him laugh and makes him playful. Proof? Please see the Marry U fancams below. My favorite, favorite part in it is where Kibum has to break out of choreography and bring the back of his hand to his mouth to prevent himself from bursting out laughing in the middle of the performance. Because Donghae does that to him. I love it. Kibum needs to laugh more.
All the old gifs and videos make me want it even more. They make me love Donghae and love Kibum and love their interaction together. ♥
GIFs
Winning the mutizen, Donghae cries after he thanks his dad. Kibum hugs him, because Kibum loves him. ;^;
On that one summer show with Siwon! The girl model is on a date with SW and he feeds her, so Donghae feels left out and starts feeding Kibum, lol. The favor is returned. Aren't they adorable? Yes, yes they are.
I love them.
A lot.
They are so pretty and Donghae makes such weird facial expressions and Kibum laughs at him.
This is one of my favorite clips/KiHae moments because Kibum is so happy just holding Donghae, and Donghae's all *headbob* and "kay, whatever" like he's not really even thinking about being in Kibum's lap.
Full House had the most beautiful Kibum ever.
MARRY U FANCAMS = A++ See below video!
PICSPAM
Lookit the scrawny little thing Kibum used to be. AND THINK ABOUT HIS MANLY ARM MUSCLES NOW. Yum.
This is from the same summer show as the feeding gifs. Why, yes, that is Hae lying all boneless across a half-naked Kibum. Mmm.
See what I said about playful? Oh Kibum, pull on my ponytail~
Look at the first row of pictures below. They're all predebut. LOOK AT HOW SMALL KIBUM WAS OMFG. And then he grew up and was a player. :Db
FANREPORTS
Randomly, Thailand fangirls are apparently the most epic KiHae fangirls ever. I find this totally funny for some reason.
This is a fan report from when DH and Siwon were in Thailand earlier this year filming a CF:
I'm a KiHae shipper...
got it from a fellow KiHae shipper..
Yesterday @ Jatujak Park ...
I was in among of fans in the place near the tent which Siwon & Donghae would rest during filming...
While they were resting, fans shouted out "Kibum Donghae Kibum Donghae Kibum Donghae ...~~~" like this,
Won was drinking water and so he smiled ... >///<
After sawing that, fans changed their voice and shouted "Siwon Donghae Siwon Donghae Siwon Donghae...~~~"
Then, Donghae walked by us, he whispered "Kibum Kibum Kibum Kibum ~" like this ....
How cuteeeeeeee !!!!! >//////////<

Same info also available at this post, which provides this video, where you can watch Donghae mouth "Kibum Kibum Kibum" around 2:00 - 2:18.
Cuuuute.

From 50 Questions by Fans:
23. The type of significant other you’d like: Kibum
From the things Donghae wants to say to the other members:
Kibum is also apart from us because of his individual schedule, and whenever I talk to him on the phone or through text messages, I always feel a little…regretful. Even though I feel bad, I really love Kibum, Kibum who is both my little brother and my friend at the same time. I love you! Please show us everything you’ve got!
VIDEOS
And now for the videos!
Short, short clip of KiHae dancing during Way For Love that makes me so happy because they're both grinning like silly dorks, Hae is crooking his finger at Bum, and Bum is all young and :D. ♥
WATCH ALL OF THIS. It makes me so, so happy. Because Donghae makes Kibum laugh and be playful the way no one else can - and all on stage. The action really starts around 1:30 if you want to skip to that.
What did I say about Kibum being playful? He's amazing here, and it's. God. Yes. PLAYFUL!KIBUM. I LOVE SO HARD. And Hae being all put out, haha.
My very favorite KiHae OPV. I love the song, I love the images, everything. My favorite scene starts at 0:37.

FIC RECS
I got into KiHae through the movie, so I have a weakness for movie!verse fics. These were among the first KiHae fics I read and to this day still remain some of the best. (This means the authors are good, and also that everyone else needs to write more KiHae.)

Do I need a convicing argument for why Donghae loves Kibum? Donghae loves everyone, true, but I really think Kibum may be his favorite dongsaeng, because he also sees him as a friend. From the translation cited earlier in fan reports, Donghae really cares because he wants to be not only a good hyung but also a good friend, and he wishes he could reach out more. He talks about feeling "apologetic" in the sense that he feels like he should try harder. I love you, Hae.
So this is less of a pairing thing and more of a I-love-their-friendship thing, but this ship is so special to me in this fandom. No other pairing or friendship quite gets me like KiHae - makes me hurt or makes me smile or makes me want them to be amazing together forever.
You want a reason for the ship? It's fucking hot. :( Seriously, guys. Other than KiHae, I'm not big on most Kibum pairings. I think he's a hot heterosexual player who can get any and every girl he wants. You've seen him on YSMM with Eunhyuk, right? Showing off just how he plays those girls to get what he wants. Goddamn, that's hot.
But KiHae. OTP! :D
1. Because it makes Kibum smile.
2. Because it's hot.
You can't argue with reasoning like that, right?
In conclusion:
KiHae is ♥
