140726-28 Berlin for Bangtan "RWeL8?" Fanmeet

as usual, this is a personal travel account, not an ordinary whatever that means fanaccount, so if you just wanna read about RWeL8?, there's gonna be irrelevant stuff, but feel free to scroll down to around the pictures of the gift boxes.


because this was Berlin we wanted to have as much time there as possible, so after a few hours of sleep we got up at an ungodly 3:30am.
we didn't really expect many people at the airport at 5:45, but much to our surprise this was the most crowded we've ever seen it?! thankfully the security check was really efficient cos there were literally hundreds of people in front of us, but it only took about 10 mins to get through.

a piece of my heart

a few weeks before going to Berlin for 방탄소년단's fanmeet "RWeL8?", Miranda, who we were meeting up with down there, found out there was gonna be gift boxes for the boys, so in the last few weeks I scrambled to get everything I wanted ready.
my life pretty much revolved around choosing and buying stuff, writing letters, getting them translated to Korean (bless Sophia forever), handwriting everything, and wrapping all the gifts and letter boxes.

it's finally here

FINALLY. August 2014.

Korea.

I've been trying to remember back to the other times, how I felt in the weeks before we left cos I don't think I've ever felt like this before.

it's probably because we've done things so differently this year.
nothing is organized and everything is Bangtan and it's had me wondering. am I this excited cos of kpop or Korea? cos everyone I talk to about going to Korea only has a kpop angle and I could feel myself getting caught up in the excitement of the possibilities of being over there in person.

but at the same time there's no doubt in my mind that I would never prioritize my precious scarce time in Korea chasing idols or waiting in airports or queues for hours on end.

I wanna go to concerts if possible, and now that Taemin's having his solo debut and Bangtan's coming back while we're over there we'll definitely see if they'll be having fansigns in places we'd go to anyway, but I won't be in line for music shows and I won't be camping out at Bighit.

so this is definitely Korea feels, but in a way, cos we're not really in Korea-mode at all, it feels so surreal that August is finally here. I'm not ready??

and at the same time I couldn't be more ready. I crave that place. I dream about it at night. my impatience and feels bubbles over in seconds if I start to think about it.

I already know it's gonna be too hot and too perfect and over way too fast ㅠㅠ

can it never be August 9th already???
