CN BLUE are going to London!
I’m so excited about this!
CNBLUE are going to London and playing a gig in Greenwich at Indig02. All British kpop fans – count yourself lucky!
I wish I could go but I’m counting on Ryainair to be extra expensive for the date and for my economy to have a crash before I can by tickets.
I miss living in London and all my close friends there β€
Jung Yonghwa – come over to Gothenburg, Sweden and I promise you'll have the best day ever with me there π
μ¬λν΄μ μ μ©ν μ€λΉ !
Get on your dancing shoes
Sleeping with Jung Yonghwa
CN Blue (μ¨μλΈλ£¨) – I’m a Loner (μΈν¨μ΄μΌ)
I thought I’d share a picture of my sleeping t-shirt that I bought in Namsan Market in Seoul. It’s of one of my favourite singers – Jung Yonghwa from
CNBLUE. He’s awesome.
Sorry for the bad-quality picture but the lighting in the room was really bad…..
Sheet masks and snail stuff
I bought some skin-stuff two days ago in Myeongdong. These are some of the items I bought in the picture above. I bought my father the paprika/pepper-shaped Elbow and Heelcream (mostly because of the shape of it’s container, but my dad also has problems with really dry skin on his elbows so it would be great if the cream helped that problem) from Baviphat. Also I bought a sheet mask, the other two I got as complementary gifts when I bought other stuff. Right now I’m trying out the Etude House Collagen sheet mask. It smells like roses and I really love the result on my skin after I’ve worn a sheet mask. I heard somewhere that you’re supposed to do a facial mask at least once a week to keep your skin looking as healty and nice as possible. Collagen masks are probably one of my favourite. In general though I’m a huuuge fan of sheet masks, and I really do recommend everyone to try them out. You can buy them cheep from eBay amongst other places.
I love that I got a complementary Snail sheet mask from Baviphat and a complementary Pearl Extract sheet mask from Etude House too. The snail-extract really improved my skin, and also have heard many similar stories as to my experience in using snail products. But I’ve only so far used snail-extract products from Holika Holika (Snail Ampoule and Snail facial cream), the same one as Jung Yonghwa used to do commercials for for the make-up brand (picture below).
Oh, also I saw a drinking yoghurt here named “Collagen”, how weird isn’t that? In a normal convenience store. I didn’t dare to dry it of course, I think collagen fits better on me than inside me….
HOW TO USE SHEET MASKS: Put on the sheet mask trying to cover as much of the skin on your face as you can, then wait up to 20 minutes. After that take the sheet mask off and throw away, then pat in the excess fluid into your skin. After that you’re finished!

Fanservice I got from Jung Yonghwa
I don’t know if any people reading this know, but I’ve since some years back been a big fan of CNBLUE. This fandome also increased last year when I boughtΒ the Heartstrings/You’ve Fallen For Me-DVD from ebay. And of course, a lot because of watching that drama, Yonghwa and Minhyuk became my favourite members in CNBLUE. Well, my favourite has always been Yonghwa due to his amazing voice, but this increased more from seeing him acting. Then also watching You’re Beautiful/He’s handsome increased my affection for him more.
Also, I should confess that one of the first things I bought in Korea was a t-shirt with Jung Yonghwa’s face on it that I sleep inΒ and also the You’re Beautiful DVD-box. So to say it shortly – I’mΒ clearly a bigΒ CNBLUE fan.
‘
For some reason this boy has been re-occuring (like things happend that I relate to him) since I arrived in Korea. This happend my first week in Korea; I bought the photobook for “You’re Beautiful” and when I’m on the train back to my hostel, showing the book to my friends saying that I adore Jung Yonghwa to them, the korean lady sitting next to me is looking over at what I’m holding, obviously she knows the drama and looking so very proud. Even my friends said her reaction was so strong (smiling to me, looking very proud and happy) that it seemed like she was his grandmother or somehow related to Jung Yonghwa himself.
Then in March or April I’m on the subway-train going somewhere with my friend Wally. She’s talking to me, and I for some reason look slightly behind her. About ten seats from us, opposite to where I’m sitting, a young man who looks like he could be Jung Yonghwa’s twin is sitting.Β I couldn’t help myself. I was staring a little. Even Wally noticed, but she didn’t notice who I was staring at though. So yeah, sometimes around people who are very handsome/pretty, I get a bit awkward. Like I did that time. I still don’t know if it was him or not.
Also these last few weeks I’ve been forcing my one of my best friends to watch You’re Beautiful and she loves Yonghwa too. He’s her favourite, so whenever we talk about the drama – we end up talking about him.
Anyways, back to the main story. In March I was invited to go to the live-recording ofΒ Mnet M! Countdown as I know a girl who works there and I finally got to see CNBLUE “live” for the first time. The songs where pre-recorded, but that didn’t matter for me since I was just ecstatic about seeing them fooling around on stage being cute. I knew the lyrics to the new songs so I was singing along in the crowd. As people who’ve been at Mnet probably know – the place for standing is super-small and you’re very close to the stage. Also I was with some other swedish people I just met there, one of them, a girl, was standing next to me in one of the front rows amongst all the korean people. We stood out a little, so to speak. I noticed after a while that since I was the only foreigner singing along to the words of the song Yonghwa had noticed me. I was so surprised. He was looking at me with this confused expression like “How in the world does this foreign girl know the lyrics to the songs I just wrote, they are in korean, how has she managed to learn them?”. Also I noticed Minhyuk looking happy that I was singing along.
Second time I saw CNBLUE live I’d gotten tickets from a friend to go to the live-recording of Inkigayo. And again (this was likeΒ three-four days after I’d been to M! Countdown) and once again I saw that Yonghwa noticed me. But this time, of course I was not standing, but seated in one of the first rows to the right of the stage, so I was really unsure if I was being delusional.
The third time I see CNBLUE live is in April sometime, about a month later at Inkigayo, again. I hadn’t yet really figured out how to get into the korean music showsΒ withoutΒ a ticket so basically I’d missed most of CNBLUE’s promotions of “Ear Fun”.Β This time I wasΒ there with my german friend Vanessa, and our main priority that day was to get to see BIG BANG live.
And this day CNBLUE where playing again (they actually won Inkigayo that day, which was awesome). Also, again their song, this time they only played “Hey You”Β was pre-recorded so they where once again standing on stage being silly and awkwardly cute. During the song (I’m once again singing along, of course) Yonghwa sees me and his mouth kinda falls open and he looks surprised, then he starts looking very very happy and waves at me. The face of happiness he hadΒ I’d describe as the one of seeing an old best friendΒ /someone he Β likes. Β I was so stunned and surprised I didn’t know what to do. This time, my friend sitting who’s sitting next to me, turns to me and says “What did you do to deserve that reaction from Yonghwa?!?”. We looked around us aswell and some korean girls on my other side where looking a little bit annoyed by the attention I’d gotten. Also I was later dancing along to the song, and he looks up at me later at the moment when the chorusline goes “Oh my darling hey you” and I do this dance-move where I’m pointing at him during the “hey you”-part and he smiles again.
This isΒ definitely one of the best moments of fangirling I’ve had in Korea.
Yonghwa gave me some awesome fanservice that day and he seems like an awesome guy.
Also he’s the only guy I think I could honestly say looks sexy when riding a bicycle.
I hope to one day get to meet him.
Also, I’m guessing maybe I understand that I, a foreign girl got this kind of fanservice, cause you know, there must be a reason why he knows how to speak english really well….. I’m not saying why, but I have my suspicions.
I hope that I get to see CNBLUE again before going back to Sweden.
I tried to apply for the BOICE-fanclub a week or so ago and the website was lagging so that sucked… So sad
Jung Yong Hwa vs. Jang Keun Suk
I dreamt a very real-like dream about Jung Yong Hwa and Jang Keun Suk when I was sleeping my day away today.
They seemed to both be trying to catch my attention in it and it was basically making me die trying to choose who to like the most. I’m blaming my dream on yesterday’s events related to Jung Yonghwa. I will write about them very soon. But I basically was the happiest fangirl due to him at Inkigayo yesterday.
Anyhow, back to the dream. I remember that I met Jung Yonghwa somehow by accident in the dream and made plans somehow to meet him up later for a fair/festival thing that was in town. The next time I saw him with Jang Keun Suk and they’re standing just by a car. Jang Keun Suk was looking stunning aswell and making me uncomfortable just being around him. I have memories of talking to them both in the dream but I blacked out the conversations completely. Unfortunantely.
For some reason, I’m next, running to buy lipstick and I know in the back of my head that I need to meet up with both Yonghwa and Keun Suk soon again. Then I’m running up a hill towards where I’m supposed to meet them, and I think for some reason, there’s a stone wall next to me taped full with pictures of me on it. I take a picture of it, cause I’m so astonished, thinking maybe I made the wall myself somehow and didn’t remember it. And somehow I’m aware of being a pretty famous korean socialite person.
I walk past the stone wall and behind me walks a man in his 50’s and starts to throw gasoline onto the wall. I’m turning around wondering why he does this and he says “SM, it’s because if SM Entertainment, but you have to escape” or something of the likes and then he lights the stone wall on fire and I run away through crowds of people up the hill.
When I finally arrive at the top I see two members of 2PM are performing there on a stage. The members are Wooyoung and someone who’s face I can’t see clearly. I try to take a picture with my phone, but someone stops me, saying I have to pay to get a picture of them, so I continue looking for Jang Keun Suk and Jung Yonghwa.
Then I wake up.
The whole theme of the dream was very much alike the one of the k-drama “You’re Beautiful/He’s Handsome” because I was feeling torn between the boys, always filled up with this joy when meeting them and also afraid because for some reason I was also being chased.
Please dreams like this continue. I love having very real-like dreams (just dreams that feel so accurate in the events that happend to me that I actually believe that it’s real life events and not a dream) and dreaming of people that I like (especially k-pop artists, you know, I reaaaally don’t mind that) and actually remembering the dreams. Since my real life memory is so bad, I’m always so happy when having vivid memories of dreams. But it doesn’t happend often enough lately…
Dreams of Yung Jong Hwa
A few night ago I had another of those really real-like dreams that you wake up from and you believe what’s happend in the dream actually happend to you. Oftener it happends when you have nightmares and you wake up all shocked, gasping for freedom from the dream.
But my dream wasn’t a nightmare, it was actually a really good dream.
I dreamt I met Yung Jong Hwa (the boy in the picture above and below) and that we started dating. It was so real, and even Amanda was in my dream and I was trying to text my friend in Sweden to tell him about it aswell. But then I woke up, all ready to call Jong Hwa, when I realized I don’t have his number. I don’t actually know him and we were never dating. The disappointment….
Anyhow, I tried to fall back asleep and of course I failed that too. Shame.
He’s so cute—
