I always believe timing is everything, and it’s proven again this time.
We timed our arrival in Seoul just on his birthday. We planned to go to Tree J bearing gifts in the afternoon, and if possible, saying happy birthday to him in person. But as soon as we arrived, we got news that he already set off to Busan that morning (not too much complaint since it gave us time to shop for Codes Combine n Nature Republic products kkkkk) and would be back the next day. But again, on Friday morning, we got news he won’t be back until late at night. So we decided to postpone our trip to Tree J to Saturday.
Saturday morning, as we’re readying all the gifts, we got confirmation that he would have an Audi event that day, and we even got the venue location. What to do? We decided to go to Audi event instead and see if we could go in and go to Tree J on Monday, after the FM. So off we went to Hansung University station. There, we noticed that the shuttle bus would arrive about an hour later (and the weather was unbelievable hot too that day T_T) We found the phone number of the venue, called in and the staff said yes, there would be Audi event later in the evening (but she won’t tell us what time exactly). And yes, Jang Keun Suk was going to be there. And no, we couldn’t buy tickets since it’s for invitation only and for Japanese only. And no, we wouldn’t be able to see him because there would be security guards in front of the venue and he would only alight from his car inside the venue. So we made a quick decision to go to Tree J instead to wait for him there.
After getting back to the hotel and pick up our gifts, we set off to Tree J. When we arrived there, there were about 20 fans already waiting. From their language: Chinese, Hong Kong, and Japanese fans besides us ;P I noticed the black van engine was on, and it seemed to be ready to go, so I assumed he’s still inside. All I can think of at that moment: Thank God; we’re not late .
We waited for about 15 minutes when another black (smaller) van arrived. Then Gunsama got out, followed by Heungro and then Jason. My eyes popped wider when I saw there’s still another person inside the car who didn’t get out. To get a clearer view, I moved to stand near the door so I could see the window clearer. It’s him!! They just got back from Busan!! What a great timing ^O^
After the managers made way for him to pass, he got out. Right in front of me! kkkkkk. I reminded myself I needed to say something., and what popped out was exactly what I usually say to him: Hi cri! ^^;;;; He replied with “Annyeong!” then he walked to the elevator flanked by his managers while the fans were screaming after him. Me? I didn’t go after him. I just stood there in my spot feeling happy with my annyeong hahahaha *easily pleased? ^^;;;;*
Anyway, since there are two exit ways (from front n behind), we decided to just go stand in the middle where we can see both ways clearly: right in front of the still running black van. While waiting, I saw his cars arrived! He brought 3 cars to Busan: one black BMW, Khan and Louis. Seemed they had trouble finding parking places because Karepan-man came out rushing to those cars and talked to the car-transport driver. And Heungro followed not long after. Then Eun Suk. And then Gunsama too. All were directing that car n traffic so his cars could get off safely.
Louis came off first, then Eun Suk went to park it (so obvious the guy seldom drove this car because he kept pressing the accelerator too deep and made the car roared loudly. And when he parked the car, we heard the loud sound of the bottom scraping the pavement >.< ) Afterward it’s Khan’s turn (I think Eun Suk was still the one parking it). Then Karepan-man took the black BMW.
All of a sudden, I saw someone wearing a blue shirt walking in front of my face. It’s Keun Suk!! I could only say “eh, eh” and pointed at him. And at last minute, press the button of my camera ^^;;;; So amazing that nobody saw him walking out of Tree J because we’re all engrossed watching the managers and the cars LOLLL. He waved to the eels and said see you tomorrow, then told his managers he would call them later and got into the car (and beside me, Korfang asked in shock “that’s Keun Suk, right?” LOLLLLL) Seemed he went to his stylist since about 10 minutes later, Karepan-man and the black BMW came back again to pick up his Dior suit, shirts, and black boots along with a big suitcase.
What a lucky first trip to the new Tree J building ^.^ But didn’t get lucky on the 2nd time when I went there again on Monday *sigh*
Will try to get the Seoul FM out of the way before MMM event starts on Aug 18 ^O^ Later~
