They really are REAL.

So many things have happened to me the past few days (just been to HK, -- a HANDFUL of days before L'Arc will set their feet there). And since I've been gone for a few days, I guess it was no surprise that the gals there at Soompi just sped up through the thread. Now I have fifty pages to read up to!! (lol, like I ever post there.)

But I love that thread, I swear. I get so much DBSK info from them, as well as pics -- even if I really don't have anyone with me to revel in DBSK fangirl activities, at least I have the thread. ^^'.

And with the HB approaching and done, it was so...i don't know, it was such a different feeling as I read FAN ACCOUNTS of them actually SEEING DBSK LIVE and in PERSON. It's so different. With all their descriptions and accounts, I found myself laughing and feeling so many emotions -- happy, jealous, happy, ecstatic, happy. Reading the fan accounts really gave me quite an intense feeling -- like 'wow, DBSK is ALIVE. They're real people!'

It's so amazing. I feel so happy for the fans who were able to actually see them and talk to them, take pictures of them inches away (even though I found this really er...umm, a bit intruding), even give them gifts and bump into them (Yunho bumped into a fan's shoulder!).

I guess the fact that the accounts were actually from people who are NOT living in Korea or Japan, and who are NOT Korean and Japanese made quite a difference. Being a fan of KPop and JPop while not being of either nationality, their worlds sort of excludes you. Basically you're just an onlooker with nothing to do but to watch. And watch. Observe. and then watch as they live in the same country as they do while you'd be so happy if you were even on the same continent as them. The fact that they met up with fans in America, and that American fans actually saw them...considering that they're not from Asia at all...it gives you some sort of hope. Well, it gave me some sort of hope. Even if I live somewhere actually nearer to them than America, and that I actually live in Asia, maybe someday I'll be able to see TVXQ in real life too.

It's just amazing really, how all these fan accounts really confirm that those Dong Bang Boys -- Junsu, Micky, Yunho, Jaejoong and Changmin -- are real. It's amazing when you know that they're real. That they're not just in pictures, in videos. That real people have seen them. Talked to them. stood in the same tile as them. Just amazing.

Oh! And Yunho is SO NICE TO HIS FANS. AAAAH he's so nice! He always waves at them and says hello and accepted a gift from a fan! AAAAH lucky fan! So many people are saying that they're really gorgeous in person. If they're already wonderful in pictures, imagine up close and personal~!

TVXQ, fighting! You are the best, you can do it!!!!

P.S.: OH! I actually BOUGHT 'T'!!!!! I can't believe it, I was able to buy it for such a low price too! AAAAH XD XD It says on the back that 'This product is licensed to be distributed and sold in the following territories: Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia only.' The Philippines!!! We're actually recognized! hahaha. Shame that 'this product' is never distributed and sold in this country. At least they have us in their plan! : D

Stick to your goal and conquer THIS.

I read from AllKPop that LSM had ideas on having TVXQ and BoA debut in the United States. And like many of the fans who reacted with the news, my say is this:

DO NOT GO THERE.

America will kill TVXQ. Their kind of entertainment, the light-hearted, refreshing and comedic type, won't fit into America's harsh culture at all. And if TVXQ will change their image just for that, just to enter the American market, then it's somehow equal to erasing what we fans have liked about them since the beginning. TVXQ also cannot speak English, even if they can sing it.

LSM, make TVXQ stay here in Asia and continue their goal in conquering it. There are still many countries to break into here, although just by that thought I'm feeling bad for the boys already (are you going to make them live in another country and learn another language for five years)? But still. TVXQ belongs here in Asia, and they're very well loved. Think of all the countries your boys has broken into -- of course, Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia. But right now, they're just into Korea and Japan.

Go to China and you'll have both Taiwan and Hong Kong.

OR, if you really wanna test the talents of TVXQ, make them go here, in the Philippines. We're sadly a mini-America. If you can make it here then YOU HAVE GREATLY ACHIEVED SOMETHING.

BoA has a chance. Sort of.
