"Hello I am Kim Baechun..  consultant of JGS "
I never thought of meeting EXO this way.. I thought I won't be able to see him..

To see Jongdae Oppa.

Yes.. I knew him. Ever since I was in highschool.
I have been dreaming to be in SME and to meet him again..

Does he still remember me?
Yes, he does. He looked at me.. and gave me a smile. He was still my Jongdae Oppa.

My Jongdae Oppa in Imjado.
And this is how I met him for the very first time.

June 2010

I was on my first-grade in Imja High School.
Hesitated to meet both old and new classmates, I sat at the far end of the room.
Since I was in primary school, people see me as weird, shy and a weakling.
Who wouldn't say that when you are chubby, wears thick glasses and becomes a victim of a bully.

They always call me 'Fishtail' a combination of my pigtails and a fish, related to my father's work.
He is a fisherman.. but not a typical fisherman. He owned a boat and a stall in the market that my mother used for selling fish.
I and my brother Changgu sometimes help them.. But we sometimes feel ashame about it everytime our classmates see us and laugh at us.
We tried to ignore it but it got worse and worse everyday.

"Hey fishtail! What's your lunch for today.. Fish again? HAHAHAH"
The bullies are here again. I kept my distance from them to avoid me but still they caught me.
Ignore.
"Ohh.. The fishtail gone mute. We are asking you." One of the girls, I suppose their leader, walked towards me and stomped my desk with her right hand.
Ignore.
"Ahh you want a fight?" The girl held my uniform. Ignore.
"Yaaaa.. Stop that!"
And here came my hero, Im Risa —my only friend and my protector.
The girl released me from her grip when the teacher came in.
It must be a bad day for her.

Everybody seated.. Risa in front of me.
She turned her head to me.
'You okay?' She whispered.
And I replied with an👌.

Risa is the one whom I only trust. She stayed with me ever since we were little kids. But I actually don't need someone to protect me. I can do it myself..

Classes ended and now it's time to go and choose our club.
Art club, Hapkido Club, Theater Club, Folk Dance Club and so many clubs..
But I went straight to my only choice.

WELCOME TO GLEE CLUB
This is what I found at the door.

I stepped in.

Where are all the other freshmen? Am I this early? Or they have gone home already?

"Excuse me.. Hello! Is anyone here?" Nobody answered.

Seems like no one is here..I might as well come back tomorrow.
I was on my way to open the door when something snapped behind me.

And it's moving towards me.. Why do I feel haunted here?

A hand touched my shoulder and I screamed..

" Hey.. hey.. Calm down."
Phew it's just a guy. What a relief!

"I'm sorry if I startled you. I had difficulty speaking so I just approached you. I didn't mean to scare you."
He really had a strange voice.
"No.. it's alright. I'm sorry.. I mistaken you as a g-gho.."
"A ghost? Hahaha this place really looks haunted. No new members..no projects.. there were only I and 5 more members. And they have gone home already."
That figures.. He walked to a nearest chair and sat down.
"Are you lost here?"
Really? He thought I was just lost?
" Ahh yeaah I mean NO. I am here to join the club.. if it's alright."
A smiled was formed on his face. I just noticed how big his cheekbones are.
"Really? I hope this would be a lucky year for us then. Could you please tell me your name?"
I stood firm..and fixed my glasses.
"My name is Kim Baechun.."
"Could you sing a song for me?"
"For you?"
"Yes.. you need to sing so I can check if we can get you in."
I looked around me. It's only the two of us.. Who's going to judge me? him?
He cleared his throat.
What should I sing..? Mmm..

🎶S—saranghae neol ineukkim idaero
Geuryeowassdeon hemaeimui kkeut
Isesang sokeseo banbokdoeneun
Seulpeum ijen annyeong

Huimihan bicheul nan jjochaga
Eonjekkajina neo

Dashi mannan naui segye🎶
(Into the New World by SNSD)

He looked at me like he was really judging me.
"Mmm not bad.. You have the potential.. but you sounded nervous today. Seems like this is your first time."
"Yes. I'm sorry." I bowed and adjusted my glasses. Perhaps this would be the last time I sing. I don't expect to get in the club.
"Since we lack members.. You're in."
"I'm In? Should I show myself to the president of the club first?"
I looked around. Heol!
"Oh.. Unless you are the.." I slightly pointed at him.
"Yes.. you're right. Sorry I forgot. I am Kim Jongdae..3rd Grade. President of Glee Club."
Kim Jongdae?
I bowed again. "Thank you Jongdae-ssi. I'm sorry I didn't know."
"It's fine. I'll tell Hyunseok about you tomorrow so you can meet the other members."
"Hyunseok?" Who is he?
"Mmm. Han Hyunseok, my VP and my classmate. He will take care of you and tell you what to do while I'm away. Besides we still lack members before we function. So no projects for the mean time. You can visit here after class tomorrow. "
He went straight to the door.
Away? Where is he going?
"Yes.. but if you don't mind Kim Jongdae-ssi, where are you going?"
He stopped.
"I have other schedules outside school. I can't promise to be here all the time."
He was about to open the door but he turned around for the last time.
"Ahh you can just call me Jongdae Oppa..and Welcome to our Club."
He smiled and went out.

Jongdae Oppa?
He looks nice.. But where does he go these days?
Whatever it is, I am happy he complimented my singing.. and a lot happier to join here.

I am so excited to meet the rest.
