The scent of earth after the rain, and the fallen flowers.
The vivid and mottled clouds, the sunshine is like the bright and sour citrus aroma, and the steaming invisible fog is like sweet corn kernels.
Be it a stranger or a native of the peninsula.
After this slightly humid, endless and unruly spring rain, just like when I was a child, my loving grandparents, the freshness of yellow tender beards in the countryside, coming from the rotten wood, are elusive, a trace of tenderness and nostalgia in childhood.
Childhood memories.
Mapo-gu, Exit 1 of Subway Line 6.
After walking a short distance, you can see a row of dense trees. Because it is still broad daylight, the colorful street lights and the fixed-point dancing fountain show are still waiting for tourists because they are even more beautiful at night.
The street scene is artistic and the food is cheap.
In addition, there are many schools around it, so it has become a popular strolling place for young people on the peninsula recently.
"Sure enough, the street scene in Seoul is completely different after a long absence."
The Gangneung girl, who was carrying a small bag and dragging her suitcase, couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow".
She had just returned from vacation in her hometown of Gangneung.
The white turtleneck sweater is simple and intellectual. I prefer comfort to sophistication, so I pair the lower body with a pair of hemp-colored core-spun pants, which are super long and can be put into the pants.
The waist is slender and full of body.
A pair of long, sassy legs, paired with a pair of milky white shoes with casual graffiti on her feet, full of fresh style.
She doesn't have a striking appearance, but she is a very attractive and mature woman.
After passing a short section of Shuixiqiao Road.
Her horizons suddenly broadened.
Vaguely, you can see a few towering pillars and a UFO that seems to be floating in the sky. Oh~ people in the Peninsula have a very self-proclaimed description of it - "super giant victory kite".
Everything related to football, that is "victory".
With the meaning of flying a kite towards victory, everyone who comes here to experience and visit can fully feel the traditional simplicity of the local culture and the enthusiasm of the World Cup style.
This is the South Peninsula World Cup Stadium, full of simplicity.
It is also the main venue for tonight’s “Dream Concert”!
You can see many people on the road who got up early and came here.
The unified characteristics are that they are dressed extremely exquisitely, and they have a variety of support items on their hands. The more fanatical ones are the stage looks of the Cos members in their hit songs.
Of course they (she) are not here to watch football, but just like me, they are here to attend idol's dream concert.
She has no interest in girl groups.
Recently, all my best friends have fallen in love with BTS. My elder sisters and old aunts all prefer young puppies. As for her, the only idol boy group she has a crush on is SEVENTEEN from P Club.
Also called "Little Seventeen".
Well, it’s the kind of love that lasts forever.
What's the reason? It's probably because they both have a similar feeling of "even though life is hard, it's hard in the end."
Everyone says that Han Sung-soo treats IZ*ONE like a daughter.
But who knew that he has always treated SEVENTEEN as his eldest son and tormented him!!
Because she returned to Seoul, her life would soon return to normal, and she would have to frequently participate in dramas to improve herself, but even so, she still had to find time to meet the people she wanted to see in her busy schedule.
"Aniaceyo, I made the reservation last time..."
I called the landlord, followed the address navigation, and came to a simple and beautiful unmanned hotel.
Enter the password given by the landlord, take the key and put your luggage in the small room.
You should book a hotel in advance a long time ago. If you want to save money, you can find some hotel services, such as booking a room on Airbnb, otherwise it will be difficult to book a hotel late.
Although fans are not short of money, even those who are short of money will find ways to make money, such as the betrothal gifts raised by their boyfriends and the money they save to buy a house.
But she's not.
Gangneung women who have been self-sufficient since college, working and studying hard to support themselves, do not have the habit of spending money lavishly.
The sound of rain gradually sounded.
"Hey Yigu, it's raining." She raised her head, narrowed her eyes, and murmured softly.
As soon as I went out, I had to hold up my small umbrella.
Evening rush hour, in the evening.
Even if it rains, you can still see many office workers, including many young people waiting to go to Gwanghwamun to watch a football match in the evening, or go to the stadium to watch a concert.
While waiting, she would go to a nearby shop to have a drink, or sit in an exquisite bookstore called "283.km" to read and listen to music.
Peninsula Bookstore.
Unlike bookstores in many places, Peninsula bookstores have a dedicated Kpop section and an album section that is never full.
Because some albums are snatched away as soon as they are released.
It’s easy to see who’s trending lately.
Just like every once in a while, a fashionably dressed shop assistant will come over to stock the shelves with popular products and add IZ*ONE's junior specialties - "COLOR*IZ", not only because they like it, it sounds good.
It’s more about the little butterfly, the representative of the group, the “*” member’s debut card.
It is a rare photo card that can only be drawn as a bonus with the album.
"found it."
She stretched out her finger and slid it on a row of exquisite bookshelves, and then the woman's eyes lit up.
I bought a SEVENTEEN mini album.
As if I had found a treasure, I carefully put the exquisitely packaged album into my bag, and then prepared to go to the scheduled beauty salon.
A Peninsula woman who doesn't dress up nicely before going to meet the person she likes is absolutely unqualified.
Before she came, she heard a relative who was a drama actor say:
"Ah, you must go to Apeojeong, did you know?! There is Nomu Nomu~ a famous beauty salon there. I heard that IU likes to go there. If you happen to meet Wuli Zhien, you must give me an autograph!!
I Rubin~"
The woman couldn't help laughing when she thought about it.
Then I called a car with Ka KaoT.
She puts her head against the car window, and is used to playing with her phone like this for a while. She also goes to Naver to read the news, and then browses the Vapp live broadcast.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The news that caught her attention was one:
"Recently on Hongdae Street, stylist Choi Jong-beom was convicted of multiple crimes such as drunkenness, violent injury, threatening others, premeditated and organized attacks on police officers, etc., which caused extremely bad social impact and will be prosecuted..."
Rubin's frown slowly relaxed.
If she remembered correctly, she remembered that this scumbag seemed to be domestic violence against his ex-girlfriend?
Then, the Jiangling girl curled her lips again.
"If there is a final chapter in spring, I hope this kind of scum will be sentenced to prison and put on a sewing machine, and then there will be a happy ending."
Only when she is alone, Rubin acts like a child and her verbal expressions are very radical.
When she was in a bad mood, she wanted to watch the Vapp live broadcast to purify her eyes.
She has no interest in most idol groups and feels they are all the same.
——It’s not about showing off sexiness, it’s about selling personality.
While watching the live broadcast replay, a new girl group called "IZ*ONE" caught her attention.
Other idol live broadcasts are all about dancing, showing off their voice, and showing off their talents.
Only this girl with a round head, a beautiful temperament and a powerful aura, put on a show and suddenly wanted to perform wolf-proofing skills for the people.
"Mo?"
As a result, he was subdued by his teammates, took advantage of him, and wailed. The sense of comedy was so strong that the impactful scene was played over and over again.
One second he was full of confidence, arrogant and domineering.
The contrast between being violently suppressed and bullied by her sisters in the next second is simply a scene that makes you famous.
"Haha! Dafa, Yigui Moya (what is this)?!"
Rubin covered her mouth and laughed, still wanting to watch.
But I was reminded by the driver that I had arrived at the stop.
She had no choice but to put away her phone, then got out of the car and walked along the street. When she passed a black and white bear statue, she looked at it curiously.
I heard from relatives and close friends that there used to be a lot of signatures and messages from popular idols on it, but they have all been cleaned up recently.
The reason is that the impact is not good.
Rubin looked up at the signboard and said softly:
"Is this here? Overmars..."
The phenomenon of cultural export is probably to satisfy the increasing number of fans who are chasing stars and eager to meet by chance. Top-ranked beauty salons have even launched an "Idol style" business.
It allows ordinary people to enjoy a moment of exclusive idol experience, and even the lucky ones can really meet the popular idols by chance.
Style, makeup, style, you name an idol and the room manager can arrange it for you.
Maybe it's because of the weather.
Many customers who had originally made reservations called the room manager to express that they might not be able to make it.
So she was very lucky. After taking the elevator to the third floor, she was immediately informed that she could enjoy the service first!
Ness, Dafa!
Before you come, the room manager will tell you in advance that you don't need to wear makeup or makeup. You can wash your hair but don't use conditioner.
So she took off her hat, revealing her very attractive bare face.
Looking around, Rubin, who had just sat down, asked his first curious question:
"Um, does IU come often?"
"Ah~, where is IU xi? When she has schedules in Seoul, she often comes here. Well, what do you like about IU's neighborly feeling?"
While the room manager was feeling the customer's hair texture, answering questions, and asking about the styling style, she would look at it secretly from time to time and seemed to feel familiar but unsure.
Dafa, looks like a certain actor? Wait a minute?!
Is it really Jeon Rubin? Isn’t it the same name?!
"Hey, I'm so unlucky."
The original intention was to help my best friend to ask her relatives.
The Gangneung girl sighed regretfully, and while she was still thinking about what style she wanted to do today, a naughty whistle like sparkling water suddenly sounded in her ears in the store.
Brisk, happy…
This time, it was Quan Rubin's turn who was familiar but not sure.
"My eyes are looking at you, but you can't see me
I'm calling you, but you can't hear me
My heart longs for you, but you can’t feel it
Even if I use everything I have to find you, you're still not there
I have never learned about love, why do I feel like this..."
A song called "Growing Pains".
Even if the fans recorded it, it was an unclear radio version.
Use the happiest rhythm to sing the most pessimistic lyrics, use a sad tone to sing the ignorance of youth, and use the freshest and most ethereal voice to sing the most astringent song.
The singer's restrained hum at the end gave the feeling of secretly talking to the person on the phone at night - after all, that person sang in front of the glaring eyes of twelve teammates and Miss Wendy who was probably listening to the radio!!
The reason was that while taking a break from recording and eating steamed buns, I casually hummed and was caught by the MC and teammates.
In the beauty room, I accidentally listened to this song while I was waiting for my makeup. The window was covered with raindrops. When the Gangneung girl was still feeling emotional about the weather, this song suddenly appeared, which instantly soothed her unknowing emotions.
Probably, this is an accidental touch.
When the climax comes out, with its lonely and gentle voice, your eardrums start to tingle, and you can't help but feel the shock or resonance!
I have always only had "Little Seventeen" in my heart.
For the first time, the Gangneung girl, who had never had any interest in girl groups, wanted to get to know the new generation of idols.
After hesitating for a long time, Quan Rubin, who was sitting on the chair, pointed to the smiling room director and asked in the background:
"Maybe? Her?"
"Ah, the kids in my store recorded it live on the radio."
"That meatball head?"
"Haha, it's a meatball head that jumped out of a fairy tale."
