Meeting BOYFRIEND at the Time Limit Fansign Event in Japan

I bumped into BOYFRIEND unexpectedly when I attended Kevin Woo’s Kosmic concert in Japan last year. Turns out that they were also holding their own concert at the same venue. It was definitely a very pleasant surprise. Back then, they were promoting under the name BF and I learned from fellow fans that YoungMin did not participate as he was still serving in the military. … Continue reading Meeting BOYFRIEND at the Time Limit Fansign Event in Japan

D-ONE: My Unforgettable Experience at Hyunwoong’s Birthday Performance!

If you stan a kpop group, you know how heart-wrenching it would be when your favourite group disbands. I was crushed when I found out that 14U disabanded in 2019. I never thought that I would see my bias, Hyunwoong, do his magic on stage again. Call it fate or destiny but I found out that Hyunwoong and Sejin (both ex-14U members) joined a new … Continue reading D-ONE: My Unforgettable Experience at Hyunwoong’s Birthday Performance!

However, this time, the announcement came much earlier, giving me ample time to make plans so I was … Continue reading Kevin Woo ‘KOSMIC’ Tour Japan 2024

There was another 14U fansign on 21 December 2019 at Mullae Youth Centre (문래청소년수련관), a day before I was due to fly back to Singapore.

14U Fansign in Seoul 2018 Post Mortem

14U had a fansign event in Seoul on 9 December 2018 in support of their 3rd single “Compass”. I was in Seoul then so I decided to try my luck at scoring a spot for the fansign.

It works on the basis of a lottery system and you have to buy … Continue reading 14U Fansign in Seoul 2018 Post Mortem
