1st September 2017 (Friday) Friday, Music Bank day~ Sadly that GOOD DAY didn't have pre-record, only live broadcast~ I reached KBS at afternoon, holding a paper bag, inside it were the Pikachu toy that I won from claw machine the day before and a fan letter for Jiwon (CIGNATURE Jeewon)~ Until around lining up time, The fan manager that I saw at Wednesday came together with another female staff from C9(her nickname is Kim daeri.), and we GOOD DAY fans automatically went to them. GOOD DAY had 7 fans came for Show Champion at Wednesday, guess today Music Bank how many fans?? The answer was.......... ............... ............. .......... Three!!! Including me~ The other two fans were a male Younha fan and a female fan from Japan. After confirming our identities and stamping on the attendance card, I passed my gift bag to fan manager. Since now has nothing to do, Kim daeri decided to go back to waiting room and helped me pass the gift to Jiwon. So......... only the fan manager and three fans here..... Alright......... Since I know Korean and Japanese language, I decided to initiate the conversation, and talked to the other two fans. Luckily the Korean male fan is very talkative, and the Japanese fan also knows a bit of Korean language, our conversation went on smoothly and the fan manager also joined the chat. Yeah~ Atleast we won't be boringly waiting again like Wednesday...... After a while, Kim daeri came back with a mysterious black pouch and said there will be a surprise~ Since I was No.1, so I was the first one to put my hand inside the pouch........... A polaroid!!!
The polaroid of GOOD DAY member Cherry (REDSQUARE Chae-a)~~~ Yeah, so the surprise was actually polaroid lucky draw~ Later on, we finally went into the recording hall, and we were arranged to sit at the left side corner, 3rd row from the front if I remember correctly. Okay, good seat but I am headache now.......... Although our seats were quite front, but we were very close to the MC place, and a row of LABOUM fans were sitting in front of me~ LABOUM members Solbin was still one of the MC of Music Bank, and Solbin is quite familiar with me~ This is because I not only went to LABOUM fansign events few times, I even sat at the same table and had meal with Solbin during Makestar fanmeeting~ So now......... I need to make sure that Solbin won't be able to see me cheering and doing fan chant for GOOD DAY~ Anyway, later when GOOD DAY was performing on the stage, I was doing fan chant loudly,(only 3 fans, must do fan chant.......) but my eyes were moving back and forth between the stage and the MC side, I scared Solbin suddenly came out and saw me cheering for GOOD DAY~ At last, I was safe~~~ After Music Bank ended, I went to eat ramen with a Singapore friend, coincidentally GOOD DAY doing Vlive broadcast. Sadly the Vlive video can't be found now............. I opened it, and saw Jiwon was showing off the Pikachu toy that I gave her~
Alright, originally I will be leaving Korea at next week, but now I decided to extend for two weeks, and do my best to support GOOD DAY! 3rd September 2017 (Sunday) Sunday, the day for SBS Inkigayo~ I came to SBS at the morning since GOOD DAY was having pre-recording. There were around 10 GOOD DAY fans came, quite many if comparing with weekdays. GOOD DAY pre-recording were done together with another girl group. Coincidentally my Korean friend J (a famous fancammer) came to see that girl group, so I "encouraged" him to come GOOD DAY~ After GOOD DAY finished performing, friend J liked it a lot and told me that actually he will be attending GOOD DAY debut concert later tonight. After the pre-recording, I decided to skip the live broadcast since there will be debut concert at night, I went back the place I staying to take a rest. Around evening time, I arrived at the venue of GOOD DAY debut concert:
When I was waiting at outside of the building, I saw not only youngsters, seems like GOOD DAY's families members and relatives came too. There were selling some official merchandises, and I bought the lightstick. Also, considering that GOOD DAY still a newbie group, they might not have fansign event, so I bought the signed album too:
I am very regret now since GOOD DAY did a few fansign events............T_T Still remember that while I was lining up to buy official merchandises, I think I saw member Nayoon's (REDSQUARE Ari) parents. They asked a security guard to pass a gift to Nayoon and the mother's height and appearance gave me a Nayoon feel~ Well..... I just guessing~ After buying the merchandises, I entered the building, and talked to friend J while waiting for the concert to start. Finally the concert started! I took out my Jiwon plank card, when Jiwon saw my card, she happily smiled and waved at me~ Okay, this plank card was totally worth it~ Also, after watching the whole concert, friend J officially became GOOD DAY fan~ At the end of GOOD DAY debut activities, friend J was the 3rd highest attendance for music shows recording and received some prizes. After the concert, I went back and rest. Monday we had nothing, but there will be live broadcast of Fact In Star at Tuesday~ Thanks for reading.

At that time I was planning to come to Korea at end of August for one week, the problem was that my favorite groups were either not having activity, or their new song promotion were ending soon. Alright then......... Let's see is there any new group going to debut at end of August? Coincidentally I saw at Twitter that a company called C9 was planning to debut a new girl group at 30th August. GOOD DAY? I have a good feeling at the group name, so I decided to search at youtube for their related videos. The first video I found, was the interview video did by Sonyunara. I was planning to put the link of the video here, sadly the video was gone from Sonyunara Youtube channel................-_- The members are very active and cute in the video, exactly my style~ Also Jiwon's beautiful smile also left a deep impression at me. Alright, GOOD DAY debuting at 30th August? Then I will reach Korea at 29th August~ For the rest of the days, I searched for some GOOD DAY related videos at Youtube, but most of the videos I found were about Jiwon only, since she already a model for Sonyunara~ Consequently, I temporarily setting my bias member as Jiwon, I even made a plank card same like this:
The same one made by me:
All black, learnt from her, hehehe~ When I was expecting that GOOD DAY 1st stage recording will be at Show Champion 30th August, suddenly they went to recording of Simply Kpop at 28th August, so actually I missed out their 1st recording......... 30th August 2017 (Wednesday) GOOD DAY was having pre-record at afternoon. I reached MBC Dream Center and looked around, surprisingly I found no one that I am familiar with. Until almost time for lining up, I saw a cute staff walking towards the gathering place. I had a feeling that she is the fan manager of GOOD DAY, and yeah I was right. The cute staff shouted "GOOD DAY!", three boys one girl all gathered from different direction, including me, totally 5 fans only......... Plus two more female fans who came late, total 7 fans only....... Since we were not familiar with each other, so we stayed in the line silently. The fan manager checked our identity, album and mp3 song download, gave me an attendance card and stamped on it. I was No.5:
Then, we waited boringly in the line, the fan chant paper was useless by that time since...........
We knew nothing about the song........... After waited for very long time, until I started to question my life, the security guard finally let us go up the 2nd floor. While waiting outside of the recording hall, GOOD DAY was having rehearsal inside the hall, so I roughly heard the song "ROLLY" and learnt about the fan chant. After rehearsal, we finally entered the recording hall~ The sad thing was.............. since the amount of fans were not enough, so we were not allowed to stand at the standing zone in front, we could only watched the recording from the corner front of the stage, so sad................. GOOD DAY recorded for two times which was aired later:
Among all the 7 fans including me, only 4 of us really did our best to do the fan chant.......... GOOD DAY members also still like a total newbie, don't know how to greet the fans, after recording, they bowed down and said thank you to the MBC staffs, then just left the stage. Hello? How about us the fans? So actually that day I left Show Champion with my feelings a bit hurt............. Oh yeah I only went for pre-record and skipped the live broadcast~ On that night, GOOD DAY members did their debut Vlive broadcast. They mentioned that they were very nervous on the stage, forgotten to greet the fans, so were very sorry about that. Okay, I forgive you all~ The next day Thursday, GOOD DAY didn't attend music show. After having dinner with two friends, they suggested to go to play the claw machines and catch some toys. Claw machine? Last time I had zero interest at it. After knowing GOOD DAY members Jiwon was addicted to claw machine, so I was like....... maybe I should give it a try~ I followed my friends to a few claw machine shops and watched them tried to get the toys, and finally I saw a toy that I feel like want to have it. It is a medium size Pikachu toy, one of the eyes is closed, one is opened, it is like the Pikachu is doing wink. Alright! Let me give it a try! I used the knowledge about claw machine that I learnt from Ryuuu TV, and realized that there are so many Pikachu toys inside the glass box, which I just need to make the Pikachu toy at the highest to roll down to the exit. After my 8th try, the Pikachu finally rolled down to the exit hole~ I won my first toy from the claw machine:
Cute right? Then here comes the problem.................... My 1st ever toy that I won from claw machine, I should bring it back to my homeland right? However, the size of it is not very big, but not very small too, I might not be able to bring it back next week. After considering for a while, since I gained interest at claw machine was because of Jiwon, why don't I just give it to Jiwon at tomorrow KBS Music Bank? I can write a fan letter to her also~ Thanks for reading.
