If you want to search for previous chapters, feel free to visit My KPOP Memories Timeline ~ 16th September 2018 (Sunday) Sunday is always the day for SBS Inkigayo, so I came to SBS tv station after Inkigayo ended. ??? Why did I come after Inkigayo ended and not before it started? This was because LOONA was having after-recording that day, so they will pre-record the peformance for next week Inkigayo~ After recording, we still need to rush to LOONA fansign event, such a busy day~ During the after-recording, I realized that the song sounded a bit different. Ahhh......... Is remix version~ Since it is remix version, does it meant that LOONA promotion is coming to an end very soon? This question was raised inside me even after the recording, and I went to the fansign venue by taxi together with 3 friends. Once we reached the venue, first was to go to the registration counter to register and draw our seat number. I drew no.40 and surprisingly my Malaysia friend S drew no.39. The whole fansign won't be boring since I have friend sitting beside me~ The fansign started on time and my view was quite good:
After waiting for an hour plus, finally it was my turn and friend S to go up for receiving signatures. We left our seat and lined up beside the stage. Friend S was lining up right in front of me. Since I have friend this time, of course need to "use" him~ Since the staff always asked us to move when the seat next to us was emptied, so if I want to have longer time with Kim Lip, then the seat in front of next member Jinsoul shouldn't be emptied very fast. Friend S was in front of me, so later while I sitting in front of Kim Lip, friend S will be sitting in front of Jinsoul. So if I want to have longer time with Kim Lip, then friend S needs to talk longer with Jinsoul and tries not to empty his seat too fast. By looking at friend S who looked like not really trust-worthy(LOL sorry ), and he also mentioned that he didn't know what to talk to Jinsoul, so I figured out a mathematics cheesy sentence, (since Jinsoul's maths was like no.19 in her school) and taught my friend S who always like to say cheesy things to idols. Even though I wanted to use it at Jinsoul myself badly.................-_-) Hopefully by using the cheesy sentence I taught, friend S will be able to talk longer with Jinsoul. By having a faith at friend S, I went up to the stage to receive signatures. First was always Heejin~ Under my guidance, Heejin combined my real name and nickname to become a funny name, so she laughed. Then Heejin blurred and wrote TO:XXX at Hyunjin's page, luckily she realized it and wrote one more time at her own page. So cuteeeee~ I told Heejin that I finally watched the movie she told me before. (for details please read chapter5.) "Selpo jio?"(very sad movie, right?) Heejin asked. I said yeah, especially after finding out the secret of the heroine. Heejin also told me that the reason why she watched the movie, was because she likes the OST song~ Next was Hyunjin~ "XXX" Hyunjin happily called out my funny name when seeing me. Great~ Seems like my effort of explaining my funny name last week finally paid off~ Then Hyunjin saw that Heejin wrote TO:XXX on her page, she gave Heejin a deadly gaze. Sooooo cuteeeeeee~ Hyunjin's signed page ended up like this:
My name was written 2 times, one by Heejin, another one by Hyunjin~ LOL The following member was Haseul~ Yeojin who sitting next to Haseul just received a mic toy, so Haseul complained that Yeojin became noisier with the mic toy, and she tried to take the mic toy away but didn't success. I laughed and said I was like watching sitcom~ Since LOONA recorded remix version just now, so I asked Haseul that next week is it last week of promotion, but Haseul answered:"Jogeum to yo." (A little bit more.) Ahhh.... I need to go back home..........-_-) Next was the noisy Yeojin~ Yeojin was wearing a very cute character hat that day. (Please look for it at youtube if you are curious.) I looked at the character hat and found it very familiar, then I realized it is the Sadaharu from Japan manga Gintama~ I asked Yeojin whether she knew the character or not, she shook her head, so I told her. Looking at Yeojin's blurred face after telling her, I asked her did she read manga. Yeojin said yes, but lately she was busy so didn't have time to read. Out of a sudden, Yeojin grabbed my left hand, and drew a heart on my left palm:
Young girl always like to play play~~~ The following member was Vivi. "Annyeonghasaeyo." I purposely greeted Vivi with Korean language. "Annyeonghasaeyo." Vivi then replied me in Korean......................... So Vivi forgotten that I could speak Cantonese language?? For the rest of the conversation I kept using Korean language, and Vivi just replied in Korean too......... There was smile on my face but actually my heart was bleeding............./_\ Next was Kim Lip~ Kim Lip was happy when seeing me, so I asked her how were my letters for the past few days, I did my best tried not to be very cheesy. Kim Lip didn't ask, just kept on smiling while signing on my album, then only she lifted her head and said:"Joa yo!"(I like it~) Kim Lip told me that everytime she read my letter she will feel happy, then she asked me, since everytime I need to think of something to write, aren't me tired? No~ Whenever I look at you, a whole bunch of new ideas always come out from my head~ I told Kim Lip, and then the staff asked me to move.............. SO FAST!? Friend S?? Didn't I tell you to speak longer with Jinsoul?? Why did you so fast move to Choerry!? Next was Jinsoul~ I sat down and punched friend S lightly because he didn't complete his mission. Jinsoul saw our interaction and asked whether both of us are friends, we denied it LOL Since friend S moved so fast from Jinsoul, I guessed he didn't use the cheesy maths sentence that I taught him just now. Well~ Don't waste it then~ I will use it~ "1+1 is........?" I did the starting, and Jinsoul said the whole sentence, so seems like friend S told her already............. Then why you still moved so fast?? Friend S, I was so disappointed............ Next was Choerry~ I told Choerry that I like to watch Harry Potter too since she likes it. Then Choerry asked me who is my favorite character, I said Hermione, and Choerry also said that she likes the same character~ The following member was Yves~ I continued to ask Yves about her part-time job and seems like she quit the job right before OEC debut, so that she could focus on practising. Basically I went to the restaurant even before OEC debuted, the Gyudon was very delicious, and I remember I saw a very pretty female staff there. Sadly the 2nd time I went there, the pretty female staff no more working at there. Hmmm..... Seems like the pretty staff might be Yves~ Next was Chuu~ We had nothing to talk so we talked about food, and I told Chuu that I didn't eat rice today, only burger and sandwich. Chuu mentioned that the Inkigayo sandwich was very delicious, and told me to try it out. Well~~~ The following member was Gowon. Since Gowon mentioned in a programme that her pinky fingers are different in length, so of course I took the chance to witness it with my own eyes. Gowon put both her pinky fingers together to show me. Wow~ The length are really different~~~ Last member was Olivia Hye~ Olivia Hye was playing with the gift received from a fan, then she accidentally knocked down a water bottle, and it fell to the floor. So we wasted some times there.............. Ended up I only managed to ask next week is it good bye week, and Olivia Hye said no. "Idonghasaeyo!"(Please move!) The staff told me to move..................... Since I have something else going on that day, so I didn't stay at the hall but left earlier. The following week, I attended two pre-recordings, then the long public holidays at Korea started..... After the long holidays, LOONA didn't announce any fansign, so I guessed that's all for their fansign~ Until early October, LOONA suddenly announced fansign again! After wiping out the blood tears from my eyes, I emptied my wallet again...................... Thanks for reading.

If you want to search for previous chapters, feel free to visit My KPOP Memories Timeline ~ 13rd December 2015 (Sunday) Allow me to explain a bit first..... If you read my memories with LABOUM chapter2, you should know that this time I came Korea to see LABOUM, was to return Yujeong a favour, because she gave me a polaroid photo during 1st anniversary debut fanmeeting. So yeah............. That's why I came for this comeback, and if LABOUM comeback again next time, I will not fly to Korea again since I already returned the favour. Everyone please don't misunderstand~ I like LABOUM and I like all their songs. HOWEVER, please have a look at the list of my memories timeline, if I am going to fly to Korea for every comeback of every group that I like, my wallet is not thick enough.............. As a result, in my mind, today's LABOUM fansign will be my final fansign............ I still remember that the fansign venue was located inside COEX MALL, and thanks to friend D who gotten a good seat at the 2nd row for me:
Sitting at the front, which meant that my number is front too, so I didn't need to wait long for my turn to receive signatures. This time, I mainly will tell the members that I will be leaving at Tuesday, and....................... let's meet again if there is chance at the future. (Even though in my mind I was thinking that we mostly might not meet again~) First was Solbin. I said good bye to Solbin, and she left a message on my album with English words:
Next was Haein. Once Haein heard that I said "Majimak...." (Last...), she reached out her left hand to hold my right hand, while signing and talking to me, she will move her left thumb to rub my right palm, it made me feel itchy~ Since I told Haein that I wasn't sure that will I be able to come to Korea to see LABOUM again, so Haein left a message on my album which I only saw it after getting back to my seat:
Haein's message is "It will be good if we are able to meet again T_T" The following members was Soyeon. Since I told Soyeon that after going back, I will still continue to watch their live broadcast of Afreeca TV, so Soyeon left a message:
Asking me to watch their broadcast interestingly~ Next was Yujeong. This time I braced myself and asked Yujeong to sign on the polaroid that she gave me. Luckily the staff who always ask fans to move didn't attend, so Yujeong happily agreed. That's how the signatures appeared on my Yujeong polaroid:
The following was Yulhee~ After knowing that I will be leaving Korea soon, Yulhee left a message to tell me to be careful while going back~
Last was ZN. A simple thank you message for me~
Then, I went back to my seat. That was it? Of course no~~~ Just like the day before, I again needed to help my friend to get signatures, so I went to receive signatures again after waiting until number 60~ This time I mainly talked about my friend with the LABOUM members, so I will not write it down here. JUST THAT.......... While I was in front of Haein, something wrong with my mind, and I asked:"Haein ah.... do you hope to see me again?" "Dangyeon hajio. Nae!"(Of course. Yes!) Haein said, then she turned into aegyo mode:"Ddo manna go sippo yo~" (I hope to meet you again~) "Nae..... yolsimhi hago tasi wa yo."(Alright... I will work harder so that I can come Korea again.) My heart was stolen by Haein~ "Yaksok!"(Promise!) Haein and me made a pinky promise. Then we talked a bit, and reached our pinky fingers again, only I moved. I guess............ Something was not right with my mind that time~~~ But wow.......... Haein is definitely a dangerous member, she clearly knew what I hoped to listen to, and stole my heart away~ ANYWAY..... The LABOUM fansign on that day was totally a blessing, since the staff who always asked the fans to move on is absent, and the two managers just sat at the side playing their phone, so the fansign lasted around 3 hours. That's why after signing for all 100 slots, all the members except Haein went to washroom. Only Haein one member left on the spot:
It was almost the end of operating time of COEX MALL at the end of fansign:
After that, I left Korea and ended my short winter trip. While I was struggling whether to go to Korea again for LABOUM future comeback, suddenly this thing appeared: https://www.makestar.co/projects/singer-laboum?locale=en Yeah right, LABOUM's first crowdfunding Makestar project~ Hmmmmm.............. Alright~ I will join and see how later~ Thanks for reading. Teaser 1 - LOONA chapter7 Maybe I saw Yves even before she debuted~ Teaser 2 - AOA chapter19 Sending AOA off at the airport~ Teaser 3 - LOONA chapter8 The gathering of the witches~
