[Pix] Kyu Jong @ MokDong Fan Signing 10.09.11

I was kind of lucky to be at the fan singing event of Kyu Jong at HotTracks that happened in Kyobo Mokdong last Sunday. There were only 150 lucky fans who were able to be part of this and almost all the overseas fans I know were part of this. From the lottery and queue I was number 130.

The signing started at 7PM. The signing was set up inside the reading room of Kyobo. It was really difficult to take photos as only 10 fans are allowed inside. As I went inside the room, I saw Kyu Jong standing with a box set up on top of the table so as he would not bend while signing. Actually, in the first few signing he was sitting but complained of back pain. His manager managed to get another seat but he decided to stand up (which I am super happy about). He look so tall and really really handsome. Again, I got mesmerized by his handsomeness. Up close I can say that he is tall, dark (not dark but fair) and very handsome. I saw that he talks to each fans while signing, giving each the sweetest smile and once finished signing he would stare to the fans eyes, talk a little, either give a high5 or handshake and say 'Kamsahamnida'.

There were only few staffs inside the reading room. Two of his managers in which one of them is HyeongJin who seems to be enjoying looking at Kyu Jong's gift. I remember him picking up one toy and playing with it. When the toy made a sound, Kyu Jong look at him and smiled. So cute!

As my turn came, I tried to be calm and keep on remembering what to say to him. Once I'm in front of him. I smiled, say 'Hi' and he said 'Hi' too and gave my gift. He set it on the side before signing and his manager took it. Before he signed, he read aloud my name to probably make sure that he's going to spell it right, then he read the few notes scribbled on the note. While he was signing, I congratulated him for the wonderful performance in Goong and for his album. After which, he gave me the signed CD. I remembered vividly that he was looking into my eyes when he returned the CD and I told him where I am from. He repeated the name of my country and thanked me again. Then he extended his left hand to shake my hand to my surprise. Honestly, I was really going to ask for a hand shake but when he extended his hand, I was really surprised. He just made me feel soooo happy. Just imagine me giving a short talk to him, he giving me the sweetest and sincerest smile while looking straight in my eyes and shaking his hand. Sigh... it was such a lovely experience. A moment in which one can never forget.

I am pretty sure that all the ladies who were there (not sure of the fanboy I saw ^^) had experienced the same thing. In just a few minutes Kyu Jong in some ways made every single female inside the reading room so lucky, giddy and special.

After last Sunday's fan signing, I am wishing for more fan signing event while while I am in still Seoul. I am hoping that lady luck will be around again. I want more of Kyu Jong. One encounter is not enough as he's just the sweetest and so adorable. How not to love this guy. Sigh...

After the fan signing, we waited for him to go out, some fans were lucky enough to get a photo and video of him leaving the venue. Here's a set taken beautifully by Rosemary which I lifted from Baidu.







Let me know share with you my signed CD in which I really really like how he mentioned my name before writing. I just love how he said my name (despite the 'L') and put the heart and the way he wrote it. (i believe everyone has gotten Kyu Jong's heart that night in different shapes and sizes)


And this is the note that I attached in the CD to know how he will spell my name correctly and few scribbled words that I know I cannot say properly to him in hangul which I believe better read than heard coming from my lips. Yeah, thanks to Lois for writing it for me. ^^ The scribbled notes just means, 'Annyeong', 'Eat more' and 'Congratulations'.

What a week in Seoul!!! ThanKYU for the account and pics. My day was not starting out well as I was grumping about a mess that had occurred in office. Then as I was rushing back to the office, opened this up and it lifted my mood!!! Your account just reaffirms all of our thoughts about sweet Kyu Jong...

So now staring at the calendar on my desk, which is happily turned to the month of October... *sighs*
