I saw a video of Lea Salonga and Il Divo singing A Whole New World on Youtube. I loved it so much I watched it again and again till I memorized all the words. It became a daily ritual for me to watch the video and singing along. Then I got sick. I had pneumonia. I coughed and coughed. I thought I was going to die. I was watching Lea Salonga's videos on my Iphone, when I had a vision. I saw myself and Feb, the guy I am secretly in love with. I saw us kissing. We were in love. We were Italians in the 17th century. How can that be? How is it possible that I lived before? How is it possible that the boy I am secretly in love was in love with me in the past? How could we be in love again in this lifetime?

I have been living in and out of Korea since 1999. I got my Korean citizenship in 2003 and it is embarrassing that after living in Korea for so long my fluency in Korean is stagnant at intermediate level. I have many friends who visit Korea three to five times a year because of KPOP and KDRAMA. I never understood the fascination until I watched and fell in love with Gong Yoo in The Goblin. The Goblin is the first Korean drama series I have ever watched from start to finish. Now I push myself to watch Korean movies and other series. I am so overwhelmed by all the Korean series available on Netflix. Pushing myself means being determined to watch the first episode. Usually I give up watching after ten minutes. Now I push myself to finish the first episode and decide if the series is worth watching till the end. I want to tell my stories as autobiographically accurate but I don't want to embarrass my friends and family. I will share good stories and nasty stories. There are still more good people in the world than bad people. But it's a fact that bad tragic stories are more entertaining and interesting. These stories are based on my personal experiences, opinions and realisations. I cannot promise that every chapter is a hundred percent accurate. I have to change names and locations but I can 99% promise the anecdotes will be 95% based on true events.
