So, I’m starting off my blog with this questionnaire.

(Grabbed from Facebook. CTTO.)

1. What was your first Kpop song?

-Sorry, Sorry-Answer by Super Junior, 2009

2. How did you discover Kpop?

-Through my cousin. She was the first to discover Kpop and has been crushing on Super Junior when she told me about it and showed me the Sorry, Sorry-Answer music video in Myx. That’s when I started pouring efforts in familiarizing the names and faces of those 13 boys (+2).

3. Who was your first female bias?

-I may not like SNSD today, but honestly my first female bias was Yuri. She was really pretty, especially in Oh! And then I started falling in love with Jessica after seeing her on Super Girl music video.

4. Who was your first male bias?

-My first male bias is actually Kyuhyun! He looked so young, and fresh, and handsome on Sorry, Sorry-Answer music video.

5. Who was your first favorite male/female group?

-It’s really Super Junior. (First and forever.) As cheesy as it may sound, Super Junior opened a whole new world for me. They brought me to the Kpop world that really gave spice to my plain, boring life.

6. First choreography you learned?

-Gee is really a phenomenon. It was so catchy and bubbly, my friends and I learned it. Also, IU’s Marshmallow. My friends and I used to dance Gee and Marshmallow in class as ice breakers to our Economics class.

7. Favorite Kpop group right now?

-I have three: Super Junior (forever!!!), BigBang, and 2NE1 (IDC if they disbanded already). But in the new generations of Kpop group, I have two new favorites: GOT7, and IKON. GOT7 has this certain charm that I really can’t get enough, and IKON is just exceptionally *almost* as talented as BigBang.

8. First Kpop reality show?

-I wasn’t really fond of watching reality shows. I was just actually so focused with Super Junior back then. So I think the first reality show with Kpop idols that I watched consistently was We Got Married, specifically KhunToria couple, and YongSeo couple (which are my all time OTP faves).

9. Not counting your bias group, which group has a special place in your heart?

-FT Island and CN Blue. I may not be fond of FT Island’s songs but they’re one of the first Kpop groups I’ve learned about. After their PRAY promotions and after watching Coming Out FT Island, I really thought they’re not just any ordinary Kpop group out there. While CN Blue’s music are literally *Ear Fun* to me. I just love listening to Yong’s voice. (PS: My phone ringtone is Love Light.)

10. What was the first Kpop thing you bought?

-I actually asked my mom to buy it for me, Super Show 2 Concert CD. It made me fall harder for the boys.

11. What was life before Kpop?

-Plainly boring. Got no interest at anything at all.

12. How has Kpop changed your life?

-Stuck branches to me. If I hadn’t known about Kpop, I don’t think I’d discover my interest and skills in any multi-media or digital design. I mean, I started learning Photoshop editing pictures of Super Junior, and such. I learned a lot of stuff, although not directly connected to Kpop but something it has to do with. Also, I think all of the Kpop fans have this, a very big heart and love for the idols we’re not even sure if we can meet someday.

I really think Kpop fans have the biggest heart in the world for loving and supporting people, even though we all know that these people might never know about our individual existence. But still, we love them and truly care for them.

Re-posting this very memorable moment as my first entry in this blog (allbycolleene.tumblr.com).

150412 Best of Best PH 2015

The very first time I got to see my first love. Finally after 6 years of being in love with you, Park Jung Soo. I have to admit it’s not the best show (the whole BOB itself) I’ve ever been to but SuJu made their stage look like it’s a mini SuShow. It’s amazing how they made us - PH ELFs - so happy with their dork, playful, and energetic self on stage. They’re just plain amazing. Making fans squeal and scream hard with their spiels and quirkiness. They surely know how to make our hearts flutter.

But the (my favorite) best part of the show is not their Oppa Oppa performance altogether, nor Kyuhyun’s solo performance of At Gwanghwamun, nor the Mr. Simple performance; it’s the last minute where no one else is left on stage but the leader, going through every side of the stage to give respect, show his love, and bow at his fans at all the corners of the arena. Very lovely and heartwarming.

It’s crystal clear to us how leadernim really value ELFs.

‘Til we meet again, gentlemen. We’ll never leave, Super Junior. Forever.
