^thanks for translating and confirming alot of important details! so they did actually meet and talked long before the Virgin Road filming, but met in person for the first time during the filming.
alot of people are questioning her love because it feels rushed, but love knows no bounds. she chose Mannie for the PVs for a reason, she saw something she liked in him and it's gone farther than we thought.
there is no reason to doubt Ayu or to dislike Mannie at all. Ayu has trusted us and dedicated everything to her fans for the past 12 years, and now she has chosen to take the next big step in her life because she feels it's right. we need to do nothing else but support her and be happy for her.
