November 2013.

Miyuki dragged me out of our inn to Hongdae streets late at night to buy something to eat because she was hungry. When we were looking for the food store that was still open at late hours, we suddenly saw 5 young men walking not too far in front of us and they were followed by some people, especially girls. When I noticed there were some crews recording them, that moment I realized that those 5 young men weren't ordinary people.

I asked Miyuki, "Who are they?" "How do I know? I think they are korean celebrities. They are definitely not tourists like us," Miyuki answered. I said, "They must be handsome... I wanna see their faces." Miyuki grabbed my hand and said, "Let's move to walk before them!" Then the two of us ran past those 5 young men from the side of the road.

Miyuki stopped her steps and exclaimed, "Omg! They are handsome!" I also stopped my steps and said, "Yes, they all are good looking!" Miyuki and I looked at those 5 young men with admiration gaze. Then Miyuki and I walked along with the girls who had been following them since a while ago.

"Excuse me, who are those guys?" Miyuki spoke korean language, asking a girl who was recording those 5 guys with her smartphone. The girl replied in half hysterical shout, "Omo! How could you don't know them?? They are EXO!!" I asked, "EXO?" The girl didn't answer my question, she left me to follow EXO.

After buying the seasoned fried wings at Kyochon Chicken Hongdae Store, Miyuki and I returned to Jeong House, where we stayed during our trip in Seoul.

November 2015.

I went to CJ CGV movie cinemas with the intention to watch an anime live action movie titled Bakuman, but the movie was already taken down, so I watched a Chinese movie titled Witness. I fell in love with the male lead. I went to see the movie poster once again after the movie had ended. I saw the name of the male lead was Lu Han.

December 2016.

Miyuki and I spent our Christmas holidays together at home because we didn't have enough money to travel abroad. We decided to spend our holidays by watching Korean drama at my house.

Miyuki said enthusiastically, "Let's watch SHR drama! My friend told me that the drama has lots of handsome guys!" I asked, "Who's the female lead? Do I know her?" "It's IU," Miyuki answered. "Oh! IU... Ok, I like IU since Dream High drama," I said, then we watched Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo drama together.

As soon as the ending song was heard, Miyuki said, "You know what? Everytime someone talks about this drama at school, my friend will instantly sing ♪ ♫ tataratara tararatara ♩ ♬, she really likes this song very much." I only smiled. "Skip the ending song! Hurry up! Let's move to watch the next episode," I said because I didn't want to die out of curiosity. 

"Actually I have watched this drama until episode 4. I have to go home now," Miyuki said before she left my house. Then I watched the drama by myself and when the episode 2 ended, I skipped the ending song again. I thought, "Why do I need to watch the trailer for the next episode if I am going to watch the next episode right away? " I always skipped the ending song to save my time.

The next day Miyuki came to my house. Miyuki and I continued to watch the drama from episode 5 until the end. We checked the comments to find out what people think about Scarlet Heart Ryeo drama and we were shocked because most of the comments were about Baekhyun from EXO who played the role of the 10th Prince.

January 2017.

3 days after the school had started, Miyuki came to my house after school. She took out her hard disk from her school bag and said, "Let's watch this! I got this from my friend. I asked her about EXO yesterday and she gave me this today. She said we should watch this!"
