Thank you for your protection Star!!! 🥰🥰🤺🤺 Luckily, I was able to go to bed at ~4:20 AM and woke up at 10 so I still got a good amount of sleep, I just had to lay on my back so it applied pressure. I was still able to take my friend to the zoo today and OML THE FOXES AND FLAMINGOS WERE SO COOL! There were these leopards there and they looked SOO fluffy😭🥺I just wanted to hug them (even though they could and probably would “wabam!” me). We walked from 10:45-4 and got food there because my friend and I both made the wonderful idea to go there without eating🙄. Also, Star, I beg of you, please look up “New Orleans, Louisiana: Rougarou: Legendary Cajun Swamp Monster” and yes, the pictures that look like the person who made them was on 7 different types of crack cocaine, is the right one.😂😭
Revolving around your lovely compliment on my French (thank you very much 😘) I actually speak/am learning 9 languages lol.
I studied Linguistics for 2 years, took 4 years of Latin(yes the dead language😭), French and English since birth, Arabic for ~1 1/2 years (when I was younger), Korean for ~2-3 years, Mandarin for 1 year, Japanese for a few months, Thai for a few months as well, and I’ve just recently started Russian as that was the first language that got me started into learning languages and different cultures!😄 Because of course, 9 year old me hearing Russian for the first time was completely flabbergasted and amazed about how cool it sounded, haha! The only reason I procrastinated on learning is that since I’ve been growing up speaking French, I’m so used to the French r that I now can’t roll my r’s☹️. I actually have a friend who speaks Russian and he constantly makes fun of me for this but he can’t do the French r either so it’s equal teasing.😉
Sorry I rambled, haha 😅. Question, I don’t know if another anon has asked this or you’ve listed this somewhere else, so my apologies if you have, but if you could become immediately fluent in any language-writing, reading, speaking- which language would you choose? And what other languages do you speak other than English, if any? Lol, I think I’ve taken up enough of your time. Bye Star!! Have a lovely day/night *space hugs*!
-🌕🌊
YYYAYYYYYYYYY IM SO GLAD YOU GOT TO GO TO THE ZOO I FUCKING LOVE THE ZOO SO MUCH….. the last time I went to the zoo this baby duck got into the flamingo enclosure and a flamingo just straight up killed it in front of us and they had to evacuate the area IT WAS SOOOOO …..????😭😭
ALSO PLELWKWKDKDKDKKD RHE FICKRKRNN SWAMP MONSTER I LITERALLY LAUGHED OJT LOUD AT MY PHONE I AM CRHINGNTNGNGN ???? WHAT IS THAT 😭😭😭😭😭
Also…… 9 languages???? HOLY SHIT???? That’s INSANE oh my god I wish I could speak 9 languages!! Wait so do you still know Korean enough to be able to understand kpop songs and variety shows and all that? Or is it a limited amount? That is BEYONDDDD cool on my god you’re so smart that is so fucking WILDDDD
I love this question HMMMM I’d probably want to be fluent in either Japanese or in Arabic ! I want to visit Japan one day but I’m so insecure about not knowing any Japanese so I’d feel so much more comfortable traveling there if I could speak the language ☹️ and Arabic just because I see it everywhere and I’d love to understand it and be able to write in it, it’s such a beautiful language too and it’s very similar to other languages so I think it’d be really useful! As for languages I DO speak, I can fully understand Spanish but I don’t speak it only because my accent is fucking atrocious 😀 my mom is from Mexico and I grew up taking trips to Mexico and very close to my Mexican side but unfortunately the elementary school I went to didn’t allow us to speak in any language besides English so I lost a lot of my speaking abilities (but I can still read and write it!) My dad is from Iran but sadly I know zero Farsi and I’ve never visited or met my family from his side or anything and I just grew up in the states so I’m very westernized but I would also love to know Farsi and be able to speak to his family members on the phone or something 🫶 my parents didn’t even speak each other’s languages when they met and there was a huge language barrier but they were so in love they made it work LOL anyways I’m rambling too but those are my answers !!
THANK U FOR ASKING I love when u guys ask cutie little questions hehehe I love u so much pookie !! 💞💝💘💕💗💓💖🫶👼

Going back in time and watching the 2020 Year Party behind the scenes. I'm splitting my post up in to two because of the picture limit in Tumblr so this is just reaction to the first video ^^;;
I've definitely seen a lot of clips from these videos but this is the first time I'm actually watching them.
Omg so the point of the shoot was to introduce and welcome SungTaro as new members...and look at where we are now. The lack of direction and commitment to direction at SM is astounding. No company I've ever worked with before has done something so big as to officially introduce a project and scrap it entirely. It just shows such a lack of planning. Except Kpop has its fans by the neck so the fans forgive and forget. Maybe.
Jungwoo seems to be pretty close with the younger guys, which I guess is because he debuted in NCT later. I know he lived with Kun when they were trainees but I'm not sure if he lived with the Dreamies. I think SungTaro lived with the Dreamies though. Don't quote me on that though.
Ah yes Kunle strikes again. In any language, Chenle will brat it up with Kun, mostly because Kun will over-attention him always.

Ah yes, I know this clip. The one where Haechan interviews Renjun while Mark lose his mind over Winwin in the background and Yangyang just watches.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Haechan getting as many guests on his show as possible in the shortest amount of time.
Jeno initiating conversation with Kun??? Jeno the introvert?? Well, I think Kun is a little close with the Dreamies. Like I know Jeno is in on the Kun-mama agenda lol.
Tumblr media
Jeno said that Kun got more handsome and Kun was like ahhh this rascal knows how to play the game >3
Tumblr media
Jisung was sooo young even for 2020 ToT He would only have been 18 years old.
Yuta and Yangyang? Interesting combo. See, this is the true power of Neo Culture Technology.

The beginning of Renyang bffs. Yangyang just started explaining the concept in Mandarin.

So it does look like when some of the guys are being filmed, the others just have to wait around for their turn. I thought that there would have been an even more efficient way to use their time but I guess it's best to leave things flexible. As in, just block an amount of time for filming and have the members wait their turns as needed.

What got you into 1st gen Kpop? I heard " For 연가" by H.O.T. and "True Love" by Fin.K.L when I was 4, while I was watching K-Dramas with my grandma. I rediscovered both groups during lockdown and have been reliving my childhood ever since lmao.
That's seriously so sweet! 💓💕 I think a lot of people are attached to the nostalgia of 90s pop 🥺 My long story is under the cut!
I always loved English language 90s/2000s pop music- I guess mostly because that's what I listened to as I grew up! I remember rollerblading to S Club 7 and Steps and drinking raspberry slurpees. I had a 2004 chunky ipod mini that I'd stuck a diamonte butterfly decal on filled with Aqua, Paris Hilton, Backstreet Boys, Jessica Simpson, TLC, Nsync, The Sugababes, etc! I listened to the first two Spice albums on my mini green and purple karaoke machine until they wore out. LOL.
I got into kpop just before I become a teen- when Beast, ss501, DBSK, Teen Top, T-ara, Shinee, Suju, Kara, Afterschool, etc were still popular. A lot of artists did covers of H.O.T. around that time. I had H.O.T.'s "We are the Future" and "Candy" downloaded in 240p on my computer. (Next to 3 part downloads of each episode of Super Junior's Mystery 6 bahaha!) I was also super obsessed with DBSK's "Tri-Angle" and the styling for it. People thought I was weird as HELL for loving it jsjfksdjf.
I didn't really start digging deep until after Exo came along, I became a fan before they even officially debuted. I even liked wolf until I realised I had just missed on their year long break HAHA. Basically in 2014 Exo released their 90:2014 project and that's when I realised there were so many 90s artists that released so much good stuff I had no idea about. I became obsessed with DJ DOC's "Dance with DOC" and the cover of Deux's "In Summer"!! And it kind of went on from there.
Then a few years later I saw Jaijin try to shit on a desk in yg fso and I became obsessed with Sechskies and now I own so much old and new Jekki stuff that I have to keep a bunch of it stacked on my desk chair. 😐
Basically, I've just always loved 90s pop and it was inevitable that I'd learn to love it in different languages too. :) English, Korean, Russian, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, Italian- it doesn't matter it's all good to me. 💓

okay this is gonna be such a LONG ASK (i hope u dont mind 🙊)!! so many things to talk about
YEAH young k is everywhere hahahaha it was so cute when he walked into bang chan's vlive (i dont follow skz but i love interaction between groups 🥺), and same day6 songs are all SO GOOD even the even of day ones, idk how they do it asahhdjf and OMG PLS DONT GET ME STARTED ON JAE'S VOICE!!!!!! (jae is my bias yes....) but HIS VOICE?? is the most BEAUTIFUL THING EVER i love his voice and when he sings.....i just die, it's like slightly raspy and emotional and sigh-y if that makes sense idk. and all 5 of them can sing too which is so incredible <3
OMG SIYUAN AHAHAHA OK SO U WANNA HEAR MORE ABOUT MARK/JAEMIN are you sure you do, are you ready??? ok i'll just gush about jaemin because he has taken over my mind anyway (sorry mark) and you brought up how if you had the imaginary chance to be with any idol it would absolutely be jaemin. WELL ME TOO. ME TOO. i lowkey squealed when you said that lmaoo omg but the way im....so excited....to talk about jaemin........okay deep breaths mel
so we're going to ignore how incredibly physically attractive jaemin is, because anyone with eyes can see that and there are many other reasons why i like him (i would insert pics here but i dont want to make this any longer than i already know it's gonna be) :D but while we're on physical elements, i love his deep voice....it's so sexy it hurts but his voice is also really soothing at the same time :( like this video my friend posted a while back ahhhhh <33333 and i love his lazy raps in his deep voice like in my youth (and also the part where he and renjun sang in octaves BLESSING OUR EARS). but other reasons: i also love how he's the "mom" friend who takes care of dreamies, but what i love most is how he doesnt complain and does what needs to be done?? like in 7llin, he cooked the meat and made sure dreamies ate first, and he also had to wash dishes and make breakfast a bunch of times bc he lost rock paper scissors lmao but he did it without complaint <3 and grocery store jaem is also just....so sexy again 😭 he inspires me to be as patient and kind as he is <3 mostly, i love how kind he is. he talks about his mom's influence a lot, and how he wants to cook her dishes for his future family (HOLD ME IM SOFT) and how he still volunteers/donates to charity bc his mom taught him that if he has things he should give to others <3 he is also so uncompetitive (if he doesnt want to win at least, bc when he does he goes hard) and he lets his members win because he knows theyre competitive af and it makes him happy just seeing them be happy 🥺 i suspect that he could win/knows answers to game questions and stuff but he doesnt say it so that his members can win instead. and i also just rly relate to introvert jaemin LOL he can be crazy with people he's close with (his unpredictableness and duality is part of his charm to me), but also he maybe doesnt rly know how to act with people hes not as close with, which i relate to as an introvert (like that xiaojun/nomin vlive HAHAHAH POOR XJ was sitting there like what do i do is this normal, while nomin were holding hands and staring into each others eyes) OK WELL clearly i am 1000% whipped for na jaemin, i shall stop now <3 thank you very very much for letting me gush <3
also your drawing journey is so interesting, i had a similar thing with music haha i did a lot of violin since i was young until college, and i did it on and off in college but now im out of college and dont rly do it anymore lol but i still love music! i drew a bit as a kid too but i stopped so im not very good but it's really therapeutic, i've been thinking of learning to draw again maybe <3 and i love your style but thats so funny that it developed bc you had no time to color your pieces LOL. glad you developed your style AND graduated at the same time though yess you go <3
same i hurtled into kpop at a million miles per hour at this time last year too 😂 i've only done gifs since then but i feel the same way, i dont rly know what the other features do tbh LMAO i kind of just go in photoshop to do what i need to do haahhahah 🤣 also awww u heard about me from bronwyns blog! i think i found you from jackie's blog?? LOL but i've seen your pieces floating around on my dash a bunch too
[also this is so so random and u dont have to answer if ur not comfortable, but are you chinese (from your name)?? because me too!!! well i speak canto though so i dont understand wayv :( except lucas, xj, henderey lmao]
yeeee i'm chinese-american :) omg i wish i spoke canto (but i speak mandarin)!!!! the wayv canto-line is always the funniest when they're speaking cantonese
also yes omg jae's voice.......bro.... his first lines in zombie eng ver. always gets to me. sorry u keep telling me not to get u started but i'm just here adding fuel to the fire 🥵
everything you've written about jaemin i totally AGREEE and have thought about too!!! i was literally watching the nct dream "future" video yesterday before i got your first ask, and that clip of jaemin talking about his future made me uwu so hard 🥺🥺🥺 i could also go on forever with you about how his "mom"ness aka him being mature and dependable and humble and generous mAKES ME SO SOFT (when he talked about his savings / financial planning on weekly idol and also when he talked about his job and how czennies keep him motivated in the ODG episode are just two more moments that pop into mind) like he's relatively young in nct overall but in the future will make a great hyung to more new members 🥺
Also !!! jaemin's voice! omg that radio clip reminds me of when he did the tingle interview with jeno and imitated jeno's deep "wae" (<3 i'm jeno biased so doubly amusing) and also when he tried hitting that really high "janeul deureo" adlib while recording work it 😭😂lives in my mind rent free

hi! i've seen you talk about chinese music lately and i wanted to ask you, what are some of your absolute favorite artists ? the kpop you like is always the best of the best so i trust your taste. i've been interested in chinese music for a while but i just find it really hard to find it, specially bc i can't read chinese so i just keep adding songs to a playlist but i don't know what i am actually listening to lol.
this is so nice... thank you for trusting my taste 😭😭😭 I probably listen to cpop more leisurely than any other music. even though I haven’t been listening to anything new recently. I have a few posts listing out my favorite chinese artists (one, two, three) and a spotify playlist with some of my favorite chinese R&B artists/songs (here) but here are some songs:
JC 陳詠桐; 奇妙物語 & 我可以忘記你
JW 王灝兒; 我不想別離 & 逃生門 
黄丽玲单曲串烧 (this a stage compilation of a-lin’s performances on the program singer, I listen to this A LOT...)
馮允謙; 愛斯基摩人之吻 🏅 (a lifetime fave)
F.I.R; 月牙湾 (袁娅维 cover) / (黄丽玲 cover)
孫燕姿; 我懷念的 (cover featuring 韋喆)
韋禮安; 沒有你的世界
沈以誠; 雨
譚松韻; like a breeze 
華晨宇; 好想愛這個世界啊
this is a hodgepodge of genres either in cantonese/mandarin. I haven’t listened to a lot of new songs lately other than JC’s older album. so many of these aren’t recent, but I still listen to them very often. If you have certain artists you like, those would be good branching points to find similar ones :)

hi i saw ur post about sm and the graduation system and i’m kinda new to kpop and kpop companies, i was wondering if u could explain what the graduation system is?
Hi! Uhm Okay, please bare with me 'coz I don't know where to start or how to explain this properly but I'll try lol
Let's start with history, shall we?
So a graduation system is basically a group concept made by SM Entertainment a music label/entertainment company where SJ, SNSD, SHINEE, F(X), NCT, EXO, TVXQ, RED VELVET, BOA & others are housed. So as per my knowledge, the 'Graduation System' was first applied or given to Super Junior when they debuted in 2005 making their debut album titled as 'Super Junior '05'. Meaning, the 12-member original lineup back then will be reorganized (idk if that's the proper term) based on their performance making the members work hard or do their best if they want to be part of the next lineup for Super Junior '06. It's like competing with your own members. So basically, every year or every comeback, there's a different or a new set of members. On the following year (2006), they added another member which was Kyuhyun making SJ a 13-member group, the largest pop group in history so far at that time. There were backlash when Kyuhyun was added. Fans (ELF) were worried and threatened about the instability of the group and the uncertainty of the concept that they have. Fans were worried about the members' future after going through intense training for yearsss so basically they didn't like it. And then in 2007, SM introduced another new member featuring which was Henry in SJ's 'Don't Don' comeback. Backlash continued. SM didn't expect that SJ's first and original lineup would appeal to the public like that, afterall, SJ was known to be 'TVXQ's leftovers'... damn writing this hurts... After all the backlash that SM received, they never tried adding anymore members into SJ and cancelled the 'graduation system'. They made Henry and ZhouMi (both are Chinese) members of Super Junior - M (SJ's sub-unit based and marketed in China) instead. Yes, just a member of the sub-unit, not the main group. If you still don't know since you're new to KPop, SJ was the first group to ever venture into sub-units. Considering they have large number of members, SM saw this opportunity to utilize their artists. It's like value adding. The first sub-unit in KPop was Super Junior - K.R.Y, a ballad sub-unit composed of SJ's main vocalists: Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, & Yesung. So yeah, the graduation/rotational system failed with SJ. They remained as a 13-member group since then (15-members actually including sub-unit members Henry & ZhouMi) Basically, SJ was a lab rat for SM, an experimental group. They gave the graduation system to them and tested the sub-unit thing as trial and error.
Fast forward to 2012, SM debuted EXO with 12 members as a whole divided into 2 sub-units which were EXO - M (Mandarin; based in China) and EXO - K (Korea) with 6 members each. There were no graduation system in EXO although they are an improved version of the sub-unit concept given, tried and tested first by SJ. SM would like to think that they left the errors they encountered with SJ's sub-unit system and then apply the 'improved' version of it to EXO. Did it also fail? You tell me. I'm seriously hoping that history won't repeat itself on WayV. Once you get deeper into Kpop especially into SM groups, you'll see eventually the connection, trend, similarites and differences between SJ, EXO & NCT (SM's largest groups) and also their Chinese sub-units, Super Junior - M, EXO - M, and WayV respectively and realize how SM worked around this concept of graduation/rotational system and infinite members and infinite possibilities that they gave NCT.
Fast forward to 2016, NCT debuted with its first sub-unit NCT U which has this rotational concept. Apparently, in NCT's case, rotational system and graduation was made separate and different. Any member in NCT regardless of what fixed unit they belong to could debut and release a song & MV as a member of NCT U depending on whoever fits the song. It could be a duo, a solo, a trio, or indefinite number of members.
SM would like to think that they left the errors they encountered with SJ's graduation system and then apply the 'improved' version of it to NCT Dream. NCT Dream debuted in 2016 with the original lineup of 7 members composed of Mark, Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, & Jisung. They were literally just 14 - 18 years old (Korean age) back then, teenagers. And the graduation system that SM gave them was that when they reach the age of adulthood which is 20y.o in Korea, they have to 'graduate' or leave the group and re-debut separately into another fixed unit which is based in another country's city ('coz SM was planning to conquer the world through music somehow lol). So after reaching the age of 20, these kids who literally grew up together as childhood friends are bound to be separated. Mark turned 20y.o in 2018 and graduated by the end of the same year. The members threw him a Kamsa (Thank You) Party which is like a send-off party around Christmas time of 2018. He was no longer part of NCT Dream's activity or comebacks after that nor seen together with the other NCT Dream's members unless it's a full group (NCT as whole) activity. So in 2019, 00liners Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, & Jaemin turned 20y.o and were expected to graduate from the sub-unit at the end of the year just like Mark. But SM announced concert tour schedules for NCT Dream on November of 2019. Til 2020 came and Chenle also turned 20y.o and SM never mentioned anything about the graduation. Not until today April 14, 2020 where they finally broke their silence and announced that NCT Dream's graduation system is abolished and will adopt NCT U's rotational system instead making NCT Dream a fixed unit. I know this might cause confusion later on especially for new NCTzens so I'm gonna clear it up here now. NCT U's rotational system includes everyone in NCT and give them opportunity to collaborate and release a song regardless of the sub-unit they belong to. While NCT Dream's rotational system is only exclusive to NCT Dream's 7 members: Mark, Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, & Jisung.
SM isn't really good at taking back whatever they've started, they'll see to it that at some point, they'll still be able to push through their original plan. That's why I said on my previous post that they've 'compromised'. They didn't give in to our demands, they've 'compromised' thinking that this is the 'best' they could give us given the situation.
Other people say it's no big deal, they're still in the same group just not in the same sub-unit. Or they're just separated in sub-units, it doesn't mean they're no longer friends which is all true. But if it's just something that light of a thing to deal with, it wouldn't affect the members so much. SJ have mentioned in some ocassions before that the graduation/rotational system they had during debut was extremely hard on them because even if they didn't want to, the concept made them look at their members, their friends as rivals. It made them compete with each other. The managers kinda pressured them into thinking that way, the company made them feel that way. They were still budding into adulthood back then, around 18- 22y.o. They were struggling because their concept gave them so much uncertainty. Imagine joining the company at a young age aspiring to debut as an artist so you could put food on the table for your family (because most of SJ members came from poor families) so you went through years of intense training and then to debut in a group where your future isn't assured. While for NCT Dream, since they are childhood friends, some of them have said on ocassions before (specifically Jaemin & Jisung) that aside from their members, they don't have friends. Because they've dedicated their childhood in intense training. They didn't have the time to mingle with other kids in school because right after classes, they'd go straight to training so the only friends they know and have are their members. Think that all those years they were building that relationship together, while SM were planning to separate them from each other when they turn 20. SM even made Jeno, Haechan & Jaemin drop out of high school just a few months before their high school graduation to focus on NCT Dream's graduation. Think about how they were robbed of that opportunity. I specially/personally feel bad about knowing how Jeno enjoys school and excels in academics. Think about how hard they cried during their first ever concert The Dream Show thinking that it might be their first and last concert together because even themselves don't know what SM plans to do with them after graduation. That's what the 'graduation system' does to young group of people. Although the concept is not all bad, but it's not nice to play with other people's emotions like that. That's why no one wants it.
So yeah, that concludes my explanation. Sorry if it's kinda information overload. I think, while writing, it became more of a vent/rant more than explaining. 😅
If there's any of ya'll who comes across this post may correct me (politely, of course) if any of the info I've wrote were wrong. Thank you. I hope this helps to you dear and to any Kpop newbies out there 😊

Tagging: @prettywordsyouleft​ @jinyoungsir​ @jinseunie​ (omgomg i know we’ve never interacted before but i really enjoy reading your fics and you guys inspired me to write as well!! it’s alright if you don’t do this but yea just wanna say i’m your fan and i appreciate your existence 🥺) also anyone who wants to do this, feel free to do it as well! 💖

My Korean study resources [2020 Q1]
People were asking me what I’m using right now to self-study seeing as I’ve stopped taking lessons. I have to admit - its really really difficult to keep motivated actually but switching up resources keeps things fresh so I can continue being happy like my kid Felix [KEEP READING]
Tumblr media
Book
Some of you know that I moved from London to the Philippines this year and couldn’t take much of my stuff with me so I ditched all my books in my house and I’m only working off one book right now
Intermediate Korean: A Grammar and Workbook by Andrew Sangpil Byon [LINK HERE]
Online learning resources
Talk To Me In Korean (TTMIK) Basic courses - working through from beginning to end to revise my grammar - I just finished Level 1 - even though their level test says I’m Level 6, there was still stuff I didn’t know in Level 1 LMAO
TTMIK videos - whenever I’m looking for an explanation, they usually have it on YouTube. They also just released a channel that’s 100% in Korean [LINK HERE]
TTMIK Friday lessons - they do a free live lesson on a Friday at 12PM KST on Instagram live and YouTube live - I could never watch it in England, but I’m in the right time zone now
Quizlet - I’m studying the study sets for TOPIK I and TOPIK II to increase my vocabulary - I do 5 minutes of learning a day and then try to make sentences from the words I don’t know. [Links here: TOPIK I, TOPIK II - there are actually a lot of sets here so go look - also trust your instinct, some words might be spelled wrong]
[I stopped using Nuri Sejong - King Sejong Institute website and switched to TTMIK, because the Sejong interface is so clunky I can’t navigate it very well so it was stressing me out more]
Chat and study group
HelloTalk - this is the only chat app I use because I’m scared of other apps. It’s pretty good - I like how you can correct people’s posts constructively and they can correct you in return - people are really helpful. There is also a voice and video call function. I’ve also made a lifelong friend on there who I met up with in Korea last month :)
Reading and translation
NAVER webtoons - easy vocabulary - interesting stories
Beelinguapp - I’m reading children’s books on here in Korean - it’s still really difficult.....
Newspaper and magazine articles - whenever I see a Korean newspaper I will pick it up, cut an interesting article out and stick it in my book (lol my book is full of NCT and EXO clippings) then do a translation, listing my new vocab and grammar on the side for revision later
Listening and watching
KDRAMA - enough said. I try to actually use my ears these days and write down words I catch or useful phrases. Sometimes I switch from English subs to Korean subs to get the spelling before switching back
Variety shows - by now you probably know that I’m a KPop stan, so I watch a lot of variety shows - for the past few years I’ve been watching them with a notebook in hand and write down words and phrases - it takes me 4 times as long to get through a clip/episode but I’ve learned so many natural AND useful phrases. This is probably my best resource
TTMIK Listening practice using Real Life Conversations listening files and IYAGI (you can find these on Google Podcasts)
Additional resources I want eventually:
Your First Hanja Guide - TTMIK [LINK HERE] - I know, I know... you don’t need Hanja really... but, whenever I study with my friend who speaks Mandarin and Cantonese, he groups similar words based on the root Chinese character and I’m always like THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE
News in Korean - TTMIK [LINK HERE] - to improve my reading
OKAY I’m not a TTMIK fangirl or anything - what happened was I rejected TTMIK for years because I was using Sogang books and I didn’t want to get confused and I didn’t know if TTMIK was any good back then. Now I realise that Hyunwoo and the gang actually explain stuff REALLY well and their resources are top quality and easy to understand, so in the past year I’ve had a transformation and have moved my learning to TTMIK curriculum. I’m still not a premium member yet, but maybe some day.... anyway I own a load of their books.

1 (for loona maybe), 5, 11 👀
1. For one or more of your favorite groups match each member to one of their songs (excluding solo stuff cuz that’s too easy)
ooo loona
heejin, girl’s talk
hyunjin, frozen
haseul, new
yeojin, rendezvous 18.6y
vivi, one way
kim lip, love & evil
jinsoul, rain 51db
choerry, you and me together
yves, sweet crazy love
chuu, chaotic
go won, loonatic
olivia, twilight
i decided to just shift the subunits so 1/3 > oec > yyxy > 1/3 to make it more ~challenging~ i have no idea how i did i think i’d have to think about it more
5. A song or album from a group you aren’t a fan of that surprised you? A song or album from a group you like that disappointed you? 
surprising:
the boyz - bloom bloom (the choreo is soooooo good. bg’s don’t do cute as much but they really should!!! the boyz proved that cute songs can have complex choreo with this one. i really think the choreographer laced it with crack it’s really sososo good)
1team - vibe (cute chill bop of the century what can i say. if any bg just made this their entire concept i would stan forever)
golden child - wannabe (idk it’s just a bop. i was forced to do a dance cover of their song lady which i hated but grew to hate even more so the fact that wannabe snapped so hard was honestly shockingly delightful)
wayv’s awaken the world album (i mean i stan them but. i didn’t expect their first full album to be That good)
nature - girls (with nature i really just experienced wanting to like their songs but not, so it was really cool that this was my #1 gg song of 2020 for so long (it’s since been unseated for #3 BUT it’s still fantastic)
itzy - not shy & id ( i have nothing against itzy but their sound isn’t quite me? but not shy is my #2 title track of the year and id is one of my favorite gg bsides i was really happy to finally like an itzy album lmfao)
weki meki - picky picky & tiki taka (not current songs but they were onto something there that’s all i’ll say)
yeeun - barbie (not much to say but it’s a cute picky bop that i wasn’t expecting!)
disappointing: 
red velvet - psycho, bad boy, and power up (queens of interesting and unique concepts but these ones just felt very...easy for them? like they weren’t as special as almost all of their other songs to me? this is just me but i prefer when groups experiment and you get a ~controversial~ song rather than them just doing something basic that’s easy for the gp? like i respect it as a strategy but rv has proved time and time again that they’re better than that so i was pretty disappointed in these songs. full disclosure i still listen to bad boy sometime though lmao)
seventeen - fear/ an ode/247 ( i’ve talked about this at length before but seventeen is my favorite bright concept boy group because they manage to do it without it being overly cute and nauseating. their choreo quality also doesn’t change at all and i find that to be really refreshing. fear isn’t my style at all but mostly i just didn’t want fear from svt? like they did super well with it i just don’t know that i would say it plays to their strengths. also, the whole album was kinda disappoint for me but the most disappointing part was that performance team did a ballad. like i understand them wanting to show their other talents and i commend them but. i wanted a dancey thot bop. on the bright side we did get network love which saved this album for me personally.)
ab6ix’s album B:COMPLETE ( i love ab6ix’s title tracks sm but i hate this album with everything in me. like literally the maddest i’ve ever been at an album)
onlyoneof - heartbreak theatre (it’s produced by cha cha malone and you can tell he gave them something from the trash pile. ooo do all these cute videos with their producers where they vlog the process and the pd talks about their thought process in creating the songs and about the boys and it’s really really nice to hear their perspective but cha cha is the only one who didn’t film one and you can literally hear why in the song. it’s so obvious that he didn’t really try to understand their sound and it’s their only song that actively takes away from their discography.)
there are literally soooo many more because i was very bitter about music last year but i’ll stop here lol
11. Favorite alternate language version of a song?
you know i’m sure that i have strong opinions on this but i can’t think of them lmfao
off the top of my head though:
uniq’s eoeo - the chinese version is 1000000x better
i get why they released svt jun & minghao’s my i was released in korean first but the chinese version has more ~sentimental value~ to me idk
exo’s chinese songs in general hit. like i don’t understand chinese so i can’t comment from that perspective but based solely on sound they don’t sound awkward and translated like a lot of other alt language releases? like i feel with many songs you can tell that it wasn’t written in the alt language but i don’t really get that feeling with exo’s stuff (and the rest on this list)
wayv/nct’s song comeback is better in mandarin but i’m hella biased so
omg that was long lmfao! but thank you sm for the ask!!! :D
send me a creative kpop ask! feel free to repeat because i have Opinions ;)

I have recently started learning mandarin by myself since my school doesn’t offer any classes, I was wondering if you have any tips for studying or websites that I could use?
Hi there, sorry I took so long to answer this because this answer took me a really long time to compile 😂 First of all, great to know you are learning Chinese! Actually Mandarin is just a spoken form of Chinese, but I assume you are planning to learn how to read and write Chinese as well :D I’ve received quite a few questions about learning Chinese ever since I started this blog, so I thought I should write a detailed answer about this. 
LONG ANSWER AHEAD
Before you start, do note there are actually two sets of (overlapping) Chinese characters out there, 
1. Traditional Chinese characters (used in Taiwan and Hong Kong)  
2. Simplified Chinese characters (used in Mainland China, Singapore and Malaysia). 
I’m from Singapore so I learned simplified Chinese, I can generally read traditional Chinese as well though I have great difficulty writing them because I’m too used to simplified characters 😂😂 You don’t have to learn both, but it’s good to know the difference since you will probably encounter both types of characters at some point when you are studying Chinese/ consuming Chinese entertainment.
I definitely recommend learning Hanyu pinyin to help with the pronunciation of the words, but do note that pinyin is neither the Chinese alphabet nor meant to be a substitute for Chinese characters. There is no alphabet for Chinese… we do have Chinese radicals (further explained here) which is not really an alphabet but more like components of a character 🤔 For the most part, to learn Chinese characters you have to memorise them. Maybe you can set yourself a goal of memorising a few characters a day to kickstart the process, actually if possible I would recommend getting a Chinese copy book/app like this one: 
Tumblr media
Writing the characters over and over is the best way to remember the words imo, also this will help you practise your handwriting! 
A good dictionary is a must, for Chinese-English dictionaries the best one I have tried so far is the app Pleco. I used to have this book of 成语 (Chinese idioms) and 俗语 (Chinese sayings) as well that I had to memorise for school, but I think you can just learn them online (found some here) if you want :D You should probably wait till your Chinese reaches intermediate~advanced level before starting on those though, if not the whole thing might be kind of confusing. 
For websites, I have never tried learning Chinese online before so I don’t have first-hand experience of any of the online Chinese learning sites, but I did find this list of online resources for learning Chinese which is really comprehensive. it covers sites and apps for everything from reading and writing Chinese characters to all types of podcasts. Actually you know what, there are more resources available online than I thought, there are even apps for you to connect to native Chinese speakers (I didn’t even know those existed until I wrote this answer) 👀 That list of sites and apps pretty much covers every aspect of learning Chinese so I don’t have much else to add tbh 😂😂 Just gonna recommend some entertainment options that will hopefully make your learning process more enjoyable! 
(Below are mostly my personal song/ show/ manhua recommendations)
For songs there are really way too many so it’s kind of hard to draw up a list, maybe you can start with the songs of some of the more famous artistes like Jay Chou, A-mei, Eason Chan, Faye Wong, Mayday, Stefani Sun, Jam Hsiao… You can search for Mandopop playlists on Spotify for a start! I’m personally quite fond of 逃跑计划, Lala Hsu and 陈粒’s songs.
Also randomly recommending 夜空中最亮的星 and 平凡之路 because they are my favourite songs (夜空中最亮的星 almost made me cry the first time I heard it, even now after listening to it for so many times it still gives me the same feeling 👵🏻).
For dramas my favourite drama by far is Nirvana in Fire (琅琊榜), which imo is the best drama I’ve ever watched. My sister and I were obsessed with this show and recommended it to all our friends, it was so good!!
Tumblr media
(side note I think Hu Ge’s face is especially suited for historical dramas)
Some other dramas I liked were Ode to Joy, The Fierce wife (Taiwanese) and The Legend of Zhen Huan, Nirvana in Fire Season 2 was also just released this year! My friend recommends Tens Miles of Peach Blossoms which she said made her cry a lot, and I think Yang Mi’s latest drama The Negotiator is quite popular too though I haven’t watched it yet. I actually don’t have a lot of dramas to recommend because I don’t really watch them 😂😂 But coming from someone who don’t particularly like watching dramas, Nirvana in Fire is really so freaking good…
Anyway besides songs and dramas, my other recommendations are 1) Web novels and 2) Manhua.
I highly recommend reading web novels (I mostly read on them on qidian), the Chinese web novel community is seriously gigantic and I’ve honestly only explored a very very very tiny fraction of their offerings because there are so many popular web novels out there. Btw even if you can’t read Chinese there are English sites (webnovel l wuxiaworld) where you can read the Chinese web novels translated into English for free, so you can enjoy them regardless of your Chinese abilities :D One well-known novel on both the English and Chinese site is The King’s Avatar (全职高手), which was made into a gorgeous Chinese anime last year
Tumblr media
First episode here!
Btw if you download the qidian app they have this audio book function that I thought was pretty handy, you can listen to your favourite novels being read to you ->
Tumblr media
(Click 听书 and it will lead to the audio)
Tumblr media
(One of my favourite novels 惊悚乐园/Thriller Paradise!)
For manhua I mostly read my manhua on kuaikanmanhua, 腾讯动漫 and occasionally dongmanmanhua. I made a short list of BL recommendations previously here, some other non-BL manhua I’m currently following are:
DOLO命运胶囊 (the art for this series is really beautiful) 
女王的手术刀
哥哥是大笨蛋
看脸时代 (This one is Korean and really popular, it’s translated into English as well under the title Lookism but personally I prefer the Chinese translation) 
A friend of mine recommended Duoluo Dalu (novel here) and Battle Through The Heavens (novel here) which I haven’t read yet, but if I’m not wrong both series are popular 👀   
That’s all I can think of for now! Kind of off topic but from the perspective of an overseas Chinese I think Mainland Chinese entertainment have improved a lot in recent years. When I was young I could only remember a few shows from China like 还珠格格, Journey to the West, and Return of the Condor Heroes, and my own childhood was dominated by Japanese manga and Taiwanese Mandopop/ idol dramas (that’s how I learned to read traditional Chinese lol). But now there is an increasing number of quality productions from China, which is great for someone like me who is fond of Chinese entertainment (sadly Singapore’s Chinese entertainment scene is pretty lacking and Hong Kong and Taiwan’s entertainment industry have been declining, Singapore is currently pretty much dominated by Kpop and K-dramas). Hopefully Chinese entertainment will continue to get better and better in the near future ^^
In any case this list is non-exhaustive, but my answer is getting way too long so I’ll just stop here. I’ll add any future recommendations under the recs tag, hope this helps!

THE RETURN OF SUPERMAN | Jeon Wonwoo
Tumblr media
Author’s Note: This AU was requested ages ago but, finally, here it is! Initially, Hyeri was the one who was supposed to write this but she handed it over to me. I hope you enjoy this one! Watch out for the next members that I will be writing about in this AU, and if you haven’t read the first two, then now is the time to do so!!! I really enjoyed writing this episode 🤣 (I can hear Hyeri’s laughter once she reads this one LOL)! 
Word Count: 5,561
Genre: FLUFF!  I’m so sorry for being so angsty with Jeonghan-ssi’s story here. If you want to laugh and feel warm all over, this is for you. 🙆‍♀️
Tumblr media
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO, 30:
WONWOO: Hello, I’m Jeon Wonwoo of the Kpop group Seventeen and I’m the father of little Eunha. Eunha, would you like to in—(Realizes Eunha was busy looking at a picture book.) Eunha? We can read later?
EUNHA: (Shakes head but continues reading and then sees something fascinating.) What’s a…bam…bampi-yer, appa?
WONWOO: (Smiles endearingly.) I’ll tell you if you say hello to everyone…just like we did last night?
EUNHA: (Closes the book and looks at the camera curiously and then to her dad; and back to the camera again.) Hello. My name is Jeon Eunha (Bows.) and I’m three and a half years old. I like to read and draw. (Looks at her dad again.) Appa, tell me what’s a bampiyer!
WONWOO: (Dying with laughter.) I’m so sorry…!
EUNHA: Appa! Tell me! (Climbs to his lap.)
WONWOO: (Hugs her and kisses her head.) Eunha is adorable. (Whispers but the mic on his shirt made everyone hear.) Bampi-yer is pronounced “vampire”, little one.
EUNHA: (Turns around to her dad and smiles smugly.) Yes, I am.
WONWOO: (Smiles and pats her head.) It’s getting harder to keep up with your brain, Jeon Eunha! (Grins at the camera consciously.) She loves reading. A lot. Little did I know she was so much like me.
Q: What does it feel like to have a kid of your own?
WONWOO: (Gives Eunha the picture book to keep her busy.) Hm…before, I kind of wondered what’s it like to take care of children. So when Eunha was born, I was excited, then a bit worried. I didn’t know much about being a father, so I read a lot of parenting books. (Laughs embarrassingly.) Fortunately, she’s not as troublesome as Coups-hyung’s twins or Woozi’s but she asks a lot of questions that are often difficult to answer (Laughs again).
EUNHA: (Looks up from the book.) Soyoung is pwetty! But Seungjae cries a lot so I give him candy.
WONWOO: (Pats her head.) You did? Wow. You must be really nice then.
EUNHA: (Beams proudly.) Eomma says I have to be nice. So I am! I love you, Eomma!
WONWOO: (Copies his daughter’s message.) We love you, honey! I’ll do great with our baby girl! I miss you already. (Ears redden as he hides behind his daughter after pouring his effing heart out.)
Q: Despite your tight schedule, are you able to bond with her as much as you want?
WONWOO: Even before Eunha was born, I knew that I can’t spend a lot of time with her because of work. That’s why I treasure every opportunity I would get to take care of her. Oftentimes, if it’s okay, I would bring her during practice and she gets to play with the other members’ kids. But when we are in the middle of promotions or a world tour, I couldn’t come home at all, so I would just call them during breaks.
Tumblr media
NARRATOR: *The day is about to end, and the Jeon Residence is quiet. What could Wonwoo-appa and little Eunha be doing?*
The cameras in the little nursery room captured a very heartwarming scene. The nursery was set in a very cozy corner of the Jeon residence’s penthouse, and tall windows touching the ceiling and the floor panned one wall. The ceiling was decorated with glow-in-the-dark stars, and cute little drawings and scribbles that looked suspiciously like English, French, Mandarin, and Hangul characters and letters. A dollhouse, a chest of drawers, and a bedroll was neatly placed on one corner. Nightlights and glow-in-the-dark stickers were by that wall as well, and the room was painted with a soft shade of baby blue.
But aside from all that kiddie paraphernalia and the scent of fresh fruit that permeated the air, one should also take a close look at the wall next to the bedroom door. And if one would see it first, you would be thrown off, like, is this really a kid’s room?
Books, children’s books, fairytales, history books, in different languages, were there. Also CDs and record tapes. And in the middle of the room, sitting on the plush deep blue carpet, was father and daughter, reading their nighttime story.
“…and they lived happily ever after!” Eunha proclaimed in perfect English. Then, looking up at her enchanted appa, she beamed, her nose scrunching up the way his did whenever he was smiling. “Am I getting better at reading, appa? Am I? Am I?” She tugged at his shirt, her eyes shining with pride. “I finished reading Rapunzel on my own! You just watched me,” she accused endearingly, pouting.
Wonwoo laughed, his deep voice turning up a hitch at his uncontainable delight. “I’m sorry. Was I supposed to join you reading? I thought you wanted to show me that you could finish reading it on your own, so I didn’t join you. But you were amazing!” Wonwoo held up a big thumbs-up.
“I was!” Eunha happily agreed, ang bear-hugged her dad. “Tell me one more story! One more story! Your turn! Your turn!”
Wonwoo laughed again and pulled her into his lap. “Enough stories! You’re going to bed.” Wonwoo began rocking her to sleep. “I won’t give you a story, but do you want to hear a song?”
Eunha pouted. “I can’t sing a song, you know.”
Wonwoo chuckled. “I know, I know. But I can sing to make you sleepy.”
Eunha giggled, putting her hands to her mouth. “Yes. Appa has a good voice.”
Wonwoo nodded and kissed the top of Eunha’s head. Softly, he began singing a lullaby, his deep, husky voice making even the cameramen panning by the makeshift playhouses on corners sleepy as well.
NARRATOR: *Omo, Jeon-Appa has a very good singing voice! I’m sure little Eunha is going to sleep very sweetly.*
And sleep sweetly, she did, enveloped in her father’s arms.
When Wonwoo was sure that Eunha was fast asleep, he gently got up and carried her to a bed that he made, so that she could sleep soundly for the night. He sat beside her for a while, his eyes darting from her sleeping face to the clock perched high above the bedroom door.
Y/N will be home soon, he thought, a smile spreading on his face. Then he mentally slapped himself. For a while back there he’d forgotten that you would be away for 48 hours while this show was happening. Sighing, thinking of spending two nights without you, he slept beside Eunha and tried to shut out the claustrophobic feeling he always had, knowing that cameras were filming him and his daughter.
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO, 30:
WONWOO: (Laughing himself to death during this interview.) I was stupid for a while back last night because I kept looking at the clock, thinking that my wife would come in any minute. She usually comes home by 9 p.m. and would say three words the minute she walks in the front door. (Straightens up his back and begins to speak in a high-pitched voice.) “I’M SO TIRED.” (Laughs again, covering his face, embarrassed at his bad mimicking of his wife’s voice.) But before she walks in, I’d know, I’d just, somehow, know, and I would walk behind the door and wait there patiently like the dork I am. And then when the door swings open and she walks in, and says those words, I’d say “BOO!” from behind and tackle her in a bear hug. She hates it, but I love surprising her like that. She says it makes her paranoid, but Eunha and I laugh about it really hard, and she has no choice but to expect this little play I love doing to get her attention the minute she walks in. (Becomes silent for a moment.) And, last night, I was thinking, “Oh, it’s 8:55 p.m. now, I should probably go to my spot.” But then I remembered that she wouldn’t be coming home tonight, because of the show. I miss her immediately then, knowing we’d spend two nights apart. But I’m happy that I get to be with our little Eunha and care for her in my own way. That way, I can learn more about being a dad.
Tumblr media
6:47 A.M.
The alarm clock rings and Wonwoo wakes up, startled. He sat up from the bed and ruffled sleeping Eunha’s hair. Yawning, he turned off the alarm clock that kept on blaring and padded out of the bedroom to the kitchen, where he proceeded to make breakfast for Eunha. Then he went to the bathroom to prepare hot water for Eunha’s bathtime. He walked back to the Eunha’s room, looked at her chest of clothes, and picked out her little daycare uniform. He checked to see if it needed pressing before settling it down carefully on a chair. He looked around the room for her black shoes.
“Eunha,” he called. “Jeon Eunha, you have to wake up now.”
No response.
This was going to be a slow morning. Eunha was usually up at the first morning call.
“Jeon Eunha. Get up. It’s morning, and your teacher would love to see you early.”
Eunha groaned and Wonwoo looked around to see if she was up. She was, sitting up, rubbing her eyes awake.
“G’morning, Appa,” she murmured, her eyes searching for her dad. “I’m still sleepy.”
“But you have to go to school! So…take your bath now and then eat breakfast with me. Okay?” Wonwoo looked at his watch. “Go on. We can still make it on time for your class at eight.”
Eunha nodded sleepily, her yawn the perfect replica of her dad’s. “I’ll go. I have to be a good student.”
“Yes, yes, yes,” Wonwoo agreed, letting Eunha help him make the bed. Then he put on her slippers for her and let her go and take her bath. “I’ll be waiting with your breakfast!”
Wonwoo could deal with breakfast and all the other chores. He knew how to clean house and cook meals. He’d learned that much after five years of marriage and taking care of his kid. But, now, staring at a brush and the pink ribbon on his hands, he felt doomed.
This was one chore he still hadn’t tried doing.
Y/N was always here to fix her braids up, he thought with a little bit of despair.
“Appa!” Eunha came out of the room, carrying her little shoes and her socks. Looking up through her long lashes, she smiled, her nose scrunching up again. The power of genetics, Wonwoo’s nerdy mind began proclaiming again. “Please help me with my shoes.”
Wonwoo complied and tied the laces of her little black shoes carefully. Then, choosing his words a little bit shyly (because he couldn’t openly admit to his Eunha the truth), he began, “Eunha, do you want to wear your hair down today?”
Eunha shook her head. “Braid my hair!”
Wonwoo laughed self-consciously, his eyes meeting a cameraman who was smiling, too. “Ahjussi, do you also have this problem?” he asked the cameraman, ignoring Eunha’s command. The cameraman, to Wonwoo’s relief, bobbed his head up and down in acknowledgment of his amusing plight.
I’m not the only one with this problem, he thought consolingly. Then he turned to his daughter, who was waiting for him to pick up the pink ribbon he’d discarded. “My little Eunha, forgive me, but could you wear a headband today? Appa doesn’t know how to braid hair yet.”
At that, Eunha’s face looked crestfallen. Wonwoo despaired for a moment, thinking that he’d disappointed his daughter.
But Eunha wasn’t thinking like that. She felt sad for her poor Appa, who knew everything about the world but didn’t know how to tie her hair right. “Oh, poor Appa,” she cooed, as if trying to comfort him. Her hand reached down to pat his head. “It’s okay!” she smiled at him and kissed his cheek. “I’ll teach you how after school!”
“So you know how? Then tie your hair!”
“No. we can learn together. You practice on me, and then I’ll practice on your hair.” She giggled at the thought.
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO, 30:
WONWOO: (Scratching his head shyly.) To be perfectly honest, I may not have looked like it, but I was really touched when she reached out to me about the braids thing like that. I thought she would throw tantrums at me. But she didn’t and I’m glad. (Smiles sheepishly.) Yeah. I might have looked kind of like the poor appa who doesn’t know how to fix braids up.
Q: Despite your tight schedule, are you able to bond with her as much as you want?
WONWOO: (Thinks for a while.) Even before Eunha was born, I knew that I can’t spend a lot of time with her because of work. That’s why I treasure every opportunity I would get to take care of her. Oftentimes, if it’s okay, I would bring her during practice and she gets to play with the other members’ kids. But when we are in the middle of promotions or a world tour, I couldn’t come home at all, so I would just call them during breaks. (Shrugs.) I guess this is what it’s really like for us K-Pop artists. We have to deal with time issues, until our career paths take us elsewhere. (Eyes brighten up.) It’s a really good thing that my wife understands me. I owe so much to her.
“Are you ready to go to school now?” Wonwoo asked kindly as he watched Eunha select her chosen hairpin (Wonwoo found out she hates headbands).
Eunha nodded and reached for her small backpack. “I’m excited to show my teacher my work!” her round eyes were sparkling with excitement. “Appa, did I write the characters well?”
Wonwoo nodded. “Yes, you did! I’m sure your teacher will be very glad.”
“Do you know where to wait for me when the class ends?” she said with a hint of worry in her voice. “Will you wait for me?”
Wonwoo lifted her up into his arms and walked across the hallway and out of their penthouse, towards the waiting elevator a few hallways down. “Yes, I will. Don’t worry!”
“But what if the PD-nim calls you? It’s okay, eomma can come for me. You don’t have to.” She fiddled with his hair. “You have work, right, appa?” Wonwoo stopped short at the despair in her voice. He looked at her intently, his heart pounding. Her mouth was drawn tight, a look she had inherited from you. It was a tell-tale sign that she was about to cry but didn’t want to. “It’s okay,” she said bravely, “I don’t want them to kick you out!”
Wonwoo stifled a laugh. Geez. His little girl was worried that she might get in the way of his usually busy schedule. But I mustn’t laugh, he scolded himself. Little Eunha was clearly perturbed that she was getting in the way of his work.
Even though she would not often say it, Wonwoo knew that his daughter was proud of him being an idol. Once, he even overheard her singing his rap part in an old SVT song. She was stumbling along the rapid outburst of lines, her voice cute and high, hilariously out of tune.
“Jeon Eunha, I will be with you today and all the time you want me to be,” he promised solemnly.
He waited for a few seconds.
Finally, the corners of her mouth drew up into a delighted smile. “You promise?”
“Yes, I promise.”
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO, 30:
Q: Was SEVENTEEN with you when Jeon Eunha was born?
WONWOO: (Nods his head yes.) When most of us older SVT members got settled down with our own families, we promised ourselves that we would always be present whenever something important was about to happen. We promised that we would be there for our partners. Thankfully, we had been true to our word. We supported each other well.
I was the first person to hold my baby girl when she was born, because her eomma was sleeping. She had to undergo the Caesarian surgery to give birth to Eunha, which looked even more painful than the normal birth to me. (Shakes his head, his eyes cast down.) I was really aching to ease my wife’s pain then, but I could only wait and stare until a nurse came up to me with my baby in her arms. Only Hoshi was with me at that time, the boys came a few minutes later with our managers. But what I would like to share was…(Wonwoo becomes lost in the memory for a moment)…how my little Eunha looked like. She had beautiful eyes that were open. Some say that it was a sign of intelligence, and I have to admit that I kind of believe it. She’s barely four but she’s multilingual and mature in ways that other little girls her age aren’t. I didn’t know that then, but it is what it is now. (Pauses for a while.) When I held her in my arms that Wednesday night, close to my chest like this (shows how he held her close to his heart). Hoshi kept joking that my face looked as blank as paper then, but I was really studying my daughter closely, and I was so amazed that for a moment I could only see her. I was amazed that she looked like she was staring at me, that she got her mom’s eyes, my eyebrows, and that she looked so beautiful then. Hoshi kept cooing at her and she just stayed quiet, not crying like I’d expected her every second. I was so afraid of dropping her that I kept saying, “Here you are, here you are,” trying to convince myself that I could pull this off. (He grinned.) It was at that moment that I became a dad, and I was so excited to get onto acting like one. I kept scolding Hoshi for being too noisy, Eunha might get irritated. He was letting her hold his finger with her small hands. (Nods thoughtfully again.) It was one of the most memorable moments of my life.
Tumblr media
7:15 A.M.
NARRATOR: *We have now arrived at the daycare where SVT’s little kids are studying! What could be happening to little Eunha? Let’s see! And what surprise do we have for Jeon-appa?*
“Wow, is this some kind of SVT gathering?”
Guess who it is?
“SVT hyungs only, Jeon Wonwoo.” Lee Jihoon/Woozi, a vocalist and producer of SEVENTEEN, clapped him on the back. He was carrying a little boy who was the same age as little Eunha.
Wonwoo was still carrying Eunha as well, and he was amused to see that the boy was peeking shyly at her, before whispering something to his appa.
Jihoon laughed aloud and put him down. “Omo.” He grinned up at Wonwoo, who got the message quickly because Woozi’s boy was staring at his little girl like a lovestruck puppy. “Yeseung, of course, you know Eunha.”
Wonwoo set down Eunha and the two children looked at each other curiously.
“They never got the chance to play together, just the two of them, did they?” Woozi said, observing as the two kids started chatting and then went off to the playpen of the daycare we had already visited earlier with Choi Seungcheol and his twins. Class was to start by eight, so they still have time to have fun.
“Yep. Seungjae always hangs around Yeseung, and only the girls are close. I guess it’s time they become best friends, too,” Wonwoo agreed.
Woozi leaned close to Wonwoo and said conspiratorially, with a glint in his eyes. “My Yeseung likes your Eunha!”
Wonwoo laughed. “Omo. Will we end up as in-laws in the future?”
“Stop.”
“You started this conversation.”
“Stop.”
Woozi was doubling with laughter.
“They always fight, though.”
Wonwoo watched their children play with other kids. He prayed that the two wouldn’t clash again. They were always bound to argue about the littlest things, nitpicking about stuff the adults can’t even understand.
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO AND LEE JIHOON, 30:
WONWOO: Our kids look cute together. (Stifles his laughter.)
WOOZI: (Groans in mock dismay.) I wish Yeseung was half as mature as your Eunha. He takes after no one from both sides of his parents! (Catches himself and bows.) Before I forget! Hello, everyone, I am Woozi of SEVENTEEN and I am also here in this show with my three-year-old son, Lee Yeseung. Let’s all have a great time! (Covers his face.) Omo, Yeseung-ah.
WONWOO: I said, the kids look cute together.
WOOZI: (Smirks.) I agree. (Looks at the camera embarrassingly and scratches his head.) My son, Lee Yeseung, likes Eunha a lot. (Laughs again.) I can’t believe it. He wants to be friends with her and often says, “Eunha did this. Eunha did that. Eunha is pretty. Eunha is smart!” And whenever he’d say that, I would go and answer, “Learn from her! He just says, “I like her.” (Sighs comically and hangs his head.) He’s three years old and he already has a crush.
“I’ll teach you how to sing, Eunha!” Both adults turned to Yeseung’s kind voice.
“I don’t know how,” Eunha said grumpily, her face grimacing. Then she studies Yeseung closely. “Can you…” she skips close to him, her hair flying around her shoulders. “…can you really sing?” she asked, her tone with a hint of awe and doubt.
To everyone’s delight, Yeseung puffed up his chest and nodded stoutly. “Yes! I can!” Then he swiftly picks up Lego blocks. “I can also build a big castle!”
“This big?” Eunha stretched out her hands. “Can you?”
Yeseung nodded and knelt down on the padded floor. “Yes!”
“Wow!” Eunha perks up and looks to her dad who was talking with her Woozi-samchon. “Appa! Yeseung can sing!!! He says he will teach me!!!”
At that moment, bright voices filled the room, making the other kids and their parents look up.
“YEEEEESEEEUUUUUNG-AHHHHHHH!!!”
Yeseung’s eyes lit up and he through his hands full of Legos up in the air. “SEEEEEEEUUUNNGGJAAAEEEEE-AAAAHHH!!!”
Choi Seungjae, yes, Choi Seungcheol’s rambunctious little boy, smiled his gap-toothed smile at his good friend Yeseung and ran, dancing while he did so. “We are both here!” He held up his hands like Yeseung. “Mansae!”
“Mansae!!!” Yeseung shouted back.
“Shhhhhh!!!” Eunha scolded, frowning at her friends.
Woozi exhaled loudly. “Oh…no. There they go.”
Seungcheol came up to them, toting little Soyoung. He was sweating and panting. “Soyoung-ah,” he said, gasping for breath, “go on and play.” He put little Soyoung down and she obediently went to the playpen. The teacher then entered and bowed in greeting to the fathers, who greeted back.
Seungcheol turned to Wonwoo and Woozi. “That boy,” he said, pointing to his son, his eyes wide and his hair unruly, “literally made me run for my life. I was so nervous when he jumped off the van and straight into the neighborhood block! I was carrying Soyoung from her seat and he just ran!”
Woozi laughed, and Wonwoo grinned at the little boy who was now playing with the other kids and Yeseung. His eyes drifted off to Eunha, who was playing in the slide with Soyoung.
“Seungjae is a handful, indeed.”
“And he’s best friends with Yeseung.”
“This is a disaster.”
“Tell me about it.”
“Have you heard from Jeonghan?”
Cameras panned the faces of the three members. Seungcheol, sensing the curiosity of everyone, laughed off the question from Wonwoo and turned to the kids. “Not yet,” he said carefully. “His situation is pretty sensitive.”
They left it at that. Best not to speak about it.
The birthday surprise Jeonghan had prepared for the mother of his cute daughter Jae Eun had not ended well, and Wonwoo felt sorry for Jeonghan. He hoped that things would get better.
The teacher announced the start of the class, and the three fathers watched with amusement as their kids trooped off obediently to their respective places.
NARRATOR: *Learn well, little children!*
And learn well they did.
Eunha got lots of praise for memorizing and writing Hangul characters so well. The teacher kept saying that she might have to enter an acceleration exam because she was advanced, but Wonwoo declined, saying that he will discuss it later on with you once the show was over.
He felt super proud of his little girl, who was now teaching a smitten Yeseung how to write his name.
Tumblr media
11:46 A.M.
“Where did you say you were?”
Wonwoo and Eunha had finally finished their time at the daycare, and were now eating their lunch rather happily. Woozi and Yeseung, and Seungcheol and the twins had went their own ways because of other scheduled activities for the following episodes of ROS.
NARRATOR: *What could be the matter? Jeon-appa seem to look worried.*
Wonwoo, still listening intently to his phone, left the bill on the table and scooped up little Eunha into his arms. “Yes, yes, we are coming. Stay there, and don’t go anywhere, okay? No, no, she’s fine. Yes, we just ate lunch. I’ll be there in ten minutes. Bye. Love you.”
Cameras followed father and daughter as they left the restaurant.
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO, 30:
WONWOO: My wife isn’t the type of person who usually gets sick. She rarely has any complications. She called me earlier on today, and I knew her voice so well. I knew she wasn’t feeling good. She was trying to act bubbly but I knew she wasn’t okay. So I just up and went to where she was. (Face grows even more serious.) Driving to the clinic where she was, I kept thinking, I should have taken better care of her. She might have been sick all this time and I didn’t know. (Smiles wanly.) Yes, indeed, those thoughts were on my mind.
The moment Wonwoo reached the clinic, he ran in, carrying Eunha in his arms. He asked the receptionist where you were, and he was given the room number. Sighing, he let the cameras follow him into a private hospital room, where you were lying down, as if in a nap. You heard them enter the room and you opened your eyes, smiling weakly. You sat up.
The cameras, for the sake of your anonymity, had respectfully blurred your face.
Wonwoo, though, was looking at you intently. My wife is still beautiful, but so pale. He was trying to assess what was wrong, and he wasn’t feeling that good. He wanted to sit on the bed and look after you all day.
“Eomma!!!” Eunha jumped off her appa’s arms and ran straight into yours. Enveloping her in a warm hug, you smiled again.
“Hello, darling,” you said softly. “How was school?”
“I earned so many stars today!” Eunha held up her arm, which was marked with stars. “See, see? And appa helped me with my homework last night! But we missed you, eomma.” She burrowed herself into your side and stayed there, lying still.
You kissed the top of your daughter’s forehead, and then turned your attention to your husband, who was still staring at you, unsure of what to do.
“Eunha seems to be doing fine with you, Wonwoo-appa,” you teased, your voice a little bit hoarse. “When will this episode be shown?”
“I haven’t checked yet with the producers,” Wonwoo replied absent-mindedly. His mind, of course, wasn’t on the show he was in. He was so worried about you. It was all he could think about. Then he went to your side and pressed a hand on your forehead. “Since when weren’t you feeling well?”
“I don’t know,” you said, your voice unsure.
“What happened to you?” Wonwoo was caressing your forehead, running his fingers through your hair, pressing a hand on your forehead to make sure you weren’t down with a fever.
“I fainted at work.”
Wonwoo’s face went white. His hand stopped caressing you for a moment. “You what?”
You smiled weakly again. “Hey, I’m okay now. Our doctor said I can go back to work after a day’s rest.”
“Why did you faint? I told you to stop working overtime on weekends.” Wonwoo was panicking, but he couldn’t bring himself to show it to you. He knew you would just shrug it off and laugh at him.
Eunha had fallen asleep. She sleeps so easily.
“Don’t go to work this week.”
You nodded. “Okay, then. Too bad, though. I’m staying here until tomorrow, because I still have to see how you will take care of Eunha.” You grinned up at him, teasing but endearing him. At his blank face, you sighed and reached up to touch his face. “Hey, don’t worry about me anymore, okay? I’m really fine.”
“You are?” he asked doubtfully, not trusting your words. He wanted to see for himself. “I’ll check with the doctor.”
“I’m more than fine, Jeon Wonwoo.” You looked up at him with delight in your eyes. “Trust me.”
Wonwoo sighed. “Okay.” He ran a hand through his face. “Have you eaten already?”
“Nope, not yet. But before you go and get me some food, say hi first.”
At your last words, Wonwoo’s face looked puzzled. “Hi? To whom?”
This is it!
Unable to contain your excitement any longer, you took his hand and led it somewhere Wonwoo did not expect, just below your stomach.
“Say hi to the next addition to our family, baby.”
You said it in such a low voice that Wonwoo couldn’t comprehend what you were saying at first. But when realization dawned on him, the only thing he could say was, “WHAT?!”
He was speechless.
With joy.
And in a few moments, you were both laughing, and Wonwoo was unable to contain his delight. He laid his head on the spot where you led his hand to a few moments ago.
“How far along is he? Did you get an ultrasound already? Oh, baby!” He got up and kissed you sweetly on the lips, first with the fluttery kisses he liked peppering you with, and then with a lingering one that left you feeling like you were about to melt inside. Then he settled back onto your stomach and patiently waited for your new baby to move.
“He’s just four months along, so I don’t honestly know if you will hear him right now,” you said gently, ruffling his hair playfully. “The pregnancy symptoms came late to me, and I really only got to know it today.”
“You are not going to work yet. Do you hear me? I want to take care of you and Eunha for now.” Wonwoo closed his eyes and for the first time since yesterday, he didn’t care if cameras were trained on him. He was in his happy place.
There was silence for a few moments, and then a small voice whispered, “Will I get to choose my baby brother’s name?”
Wonwoo’s eyes opened and darted towards yours. You both laughed as little Eunha sleepily sat up, rubbing her eyes. She probably heard everything, Wonwoo thought, studying his daughter.
“Eunha, are you happy that we’re going to have a new baby in the house?” Wonwoo asked gently. “We’re still not sure if the baby will be a boy or a girl, though. Do you really want to help with naming the baby once it comes out to greet us all?”
Eunha clapped her hands together in delight and nodded. “Yes, yes, yes!”
Wonwoo got up and walked around to gather Eunha into his arms. “Okay, then!” He grinned and sat beside you once more, his eyes tenderly looking at you. “I’m so proud of you, baby. I’ll take care of you. I promise.”
“Take care of me, too!” Eunha pouted.
Wonwoo laughed, his deep voice filling the room. He hugged little Eunha close to him and kissed you again.
“Yes, yes,” he promised. “I will take care of my family.”
INTERVIEW WITH JEON WONWOO, 30:
WONWOO: (Stays speechless for a few seconds. Then laughs and puts hands over face.) I’m so speechless. (Puts down hands and takes a deep breath. Exhales. Smiles widely.) I’m so happy. I’m so excited. I’m so happy right now I can’t say anything right. I’m just…so…happy. (Takes deep breaths and lets out a delightful laughter.) What will the baby look like? This is such a surprise. (Bites lip.) Words can’t explain how I feel now. More than happy. (Looks at camera.) Y/N, oh, I just said your name! Sorry. (Laughs sheepishly and smiles sweetly.) But, baby! I love you! I love you. I will take care of you and Eunha!!! I promise!
Cameras watched as the Jeon family laid down together, the happy news of a new life just growing sending off a warm feeling into the hearts of those watching all around the world.
Tumblr media
2 P.M. VOICE MESSAGE:
“Hey, Jeon-appa! It’s me, Cheol-appa. I just heard the news. Congratulations!” [voice breaks.] “To us both. My wife just broke the news. She’s expecting, too!” [cheers at the background; suspiciously sounding like the other SVT members. And children screaming.] “What on earth is happening? I’m so happy right now I’m crying.” [sobs and shouts “I love you” to someone most possibly his wife.] Talk to you soon! See us after the show. Bye!”

ellooo tumblr??!! i literally have your notifs on yet i only saw this now🤦‍♀️
omg you're right his mustache is so funny 🤣🤣 reminds me of pringles🤣🤣🤣 (such a bad timing when im about to write about my workout routine next 🤣🤣)
i have been following this lady (Feifei 菲菲)'s exercises that she developed on her own (mandarin language). it's not too intense but it can still make you sweat (i think it's a combination of stretching, aerobic & light dancing? she calls it "posture workout"). she is live on facebook from mon~sat, she doesn't save her lives on her fb page due to copyright issues, so the videos uploaded on YouTube are all by her viewers (you can find videos of her if you search "菲菲形體操"). i used to check in every evening on her fb lives but nowadays i just watch the videos on YouTube 🤣 (that way i can also skip the parts where she's chatting with the viewers haha🤣🤣).
i don't like going to the gym so i find her videos very helpful :) her exercises really helped corrected my poor posture and several people i hadn't seen a long time have asked me how i slimmed down and i was like 😳 - i owe it to her ><""
as for workout music it's all nct's songs 😭😭🤣 the noisier, the better 😆😆 i also like the music that Feifei chooses hehe they get me in workout mood very quickly 😆
hi love, im responding now cuz i was able to start working and i was preparing for today. worked with the kindergarten class today (as a sub for the teacher's assistant who was absent) and i came home with the biggest headache. LOL kids are cute but i think that i'd be better subbing in hs. at least i could talk to hs students, children is just another level and honestly props to all those teachers out there cuz that's a wild job.
ANYHOO,,,lOL the pringles guy i should make a meme of that. but yeah im pretty sure i've seen her before, i'll def check her out tmrw im curious now. i love stretching and dancing omg the whole reason i wanna lose the belly is so i could get into dancing again. im not great, im self taught but hip hop and kpop dances are 0_0 amAZING. and ooo posture is so important and i feel like people don't realize or see that cuz once you see it and even feel it, its so different. my friend taught me to hold your hands behind your back and bring your chest back and that's the posture you're supposed to hold, so now i do that when i notice im hunched over something or don't sit properly (LOL i get the "i'm here for the workout" vibe, you just get into the zone of it)
i used to go the gym but honestly i don't like being alone and it's filled with so many dudes and i personally just wish to have more female companions. and aayyyyeee we love a good healthy change that's it WORK IT! *starts dancing terribly to work it nct*
ooiii nct songs are bangers what can i say, i could get down with working out to mad dog and sit down, ooo i'll def check her out, since im off tmrw imma have free time to look her up and get in the zone woo woo~ ^~^

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ Matchup ♥
★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★
Hi!~ you can just call me Alex, please!~ I would like to be anon if that is ok lol the fandoms I want are A3!, Haikyuu!!, and Naruto! 🥰 SFW and NSFW is alright with me! 😉 whatever is comfortable lol
Alright so, intro info! I’m a Capricorn sun, Sagittarius moon and Virgo Ascendant. My modality is Cardinal 53%, Fixed 37%, Mutable 11%. My elements are Earth 51%, Water 36%, Fire 10% and Air 3%. My MBTI is INFJ. I’m also a HuffleClaw with a bit of Slytherin. I have was born with Turner Syndrome. I have ADHD, Autism, Anxiety and Depression. I am agender and I use they/them pronouns though she/her are alright since I’m used to those pronouns lol I am still exploring my sexuality, I am very open dating anyone of any gender so I would say I’m bi/panromantic, however I do strongly connect with the asexual spectrum since trust is a big deal for me lol
I had a coarctation or narrowing of the arota at 6 days old and was pronounced dead on the way to Children’s Hospital. I had open heart surgery soon afterwards. My grandmother was told that with all the mental health issues I could have due to TS, I could be super smart or I wouldn’t even be able to remember my own name. The doctor’s said I would be bad at math. My parents divorced when I was 10 and my little brother was 6. Both of them remarried, my dad once and our mol several times. Though, I won’t go more into that lol just to save you the details, our grandparents raised us and life was -is- really messy ahah
I’m currently going to college. I was supposed to graduate last semester, but I changed my major several times in the last 2 years lol 😂😂 I was a biology major and wanted to work in marine bio/ wildlife conservation and start my own rehab places for marine/terrestrial mammals. I am now a Middle School Education major with areas of concentration in science and language arts with a minor in TESL ( Teaching English as a Second Language). I want to teach English in Japan! 😊 As far as grade school, I always made As/Bs witout even trying and I loved to read, so much so that I got an award for it in 5th grade! I was quiet yet loud and super awkward as a kid 🤣🤣 I actually loved science a lot and even took AP courses until highschool because the teacher I would have taken in highschool was a really bad teacher who if he had family members and didn’t like them, he wouldn’t like you. He taught my father and his sister and didn’t like them, so least to say young and impressionable me noped out of that fast 😂😂
For a while, I wanted to be a Forensic Antropologist like Temeperance from Bones! 😊 however, we didn’t have a anthro major at my college, only chem lol so, when I started taking upper level courses, I quickly found I much prefer bio to chem 🤣🤣 I still dislike math as I have my whole life, but since I got to college, I’ve only made below a B in one math related course! 🥰
Ok sorry for a lot of random info 🤣🤣 onto other things! So, I’m very shy and quiet at first, but when I get comfortable around someone, that’s when the wierd comes out 🤣 I’m very passionate about education and science! I am a Christian and am very passionate about equality. I also firmly believe in redistributing millionare/billionares’ wealth.
I grew up watching anime and still love it to this day. I have strong connection with Japanese culture because anime was the gateway into learning about it and anime will always have a special place in my heart because of it! Japanese culture and really most if not all Asian cultures resonate with me because of the morals anime had taught me. I firmly believe in balance and hamrony with nature! I was introduced to kpop in middle school and have been a fan ever since lol 🤣 I also like pop/alternative music lol I like P!NK, Linkin Park, Adele and a few others lol
As I mention with wanting to be a marine biologist, I really love animals!~ 💕💜 my favs are otters, foxes, cats of all kinds, dogs, wolves, dolphins, and honey badgers! I currently have a Korat named Lila (li-lah like lilac) she is a very unique cat 🤣 she’s super curious and sorta a crackhead lol I did have a yorkie terrier named Sarah and a miniature schnauzer named Star, but since last June, we had to put both of them down 🥺 Sarah got cancer suddenly late last year and a few months ago Star had congestive heart failure. They were 13 and 14 respectively. They were amazing dogs! Sarah loved to swim and hunt little creatures and was the energetic one while Star was the grouchy old lady 🤣🤣
I also love anything fantasy/superhero! I love HP, LOTR, and Marvel! My fav genre of anime is shounen obvi lol 🤣Lol I also love learning other languages! I took French in highschool and two semester of Mandarin in college lol ( I need to brush up on both 🤣🤣) I am currently trying to learn Japanese! I wanna also learn Korean, Welsh, and Irish! I hope to go teach English in Japan via the JET program at my college! 🥰 I will more than likely stay in Japan after I stay the 5 max years through the JET program!
I also really love video games! I wanna play Persona 5 soo bad 🤣🤣 Horzon: Zero Dawn, the Legend of Zelda series, the Pokemon series and Animal Crossing: New Horizons are some of my favorites lol
Hmmm… what else to say? 🤣 I am typically the mom friend of the group ahaha oh! I am 4’9” and weigh 140 so I’m kinda chubby 😅 I am very self concious about my body. I have green eyes and I wear small, black rectangular glasses. I have moles and freckles all over my body. I have a dyed blonde bob with a brunnette undercut. I don’t have any piercings yet but I do have one tattoo on my inner left ankle!
I am stubborn, passionate, caring, empathetic, understanding, loving, loud, quiet, awkward, hyper, enthusiastic, curious, and I can procrastinate at times due to my ADHD lol I also love to have plans lol I like things to be organized and clean, but I don’t mind ‘organized chaos’ sometimes lol I am also very loyal to my friends. I prefer having a few super close friends than having tons of aquaintances.
Ok so dating lol um I’ve never actually dates anyone before 🙈 I’m also a virgin lol trust is a big issue for me, like aforementioned my parents divorce affected me a lot and I have a strained relationship with each of them due to the divorce and the events over the years afterwards. Plus, as a Capricorn, school/career is my main focus. I’m so busy with college and trying to figure myself out, I haven’t got time for dating ahaha so my irl soulmate will need to be a hell of a person and have the patience of a saint to deal with me 🤣
Even though I have never been in a relationship, out of curiousity and wanting to be knowledgeable, I have researched BDSM lol 😂 I am definitely not into slave/master, whipping, or anything super hardcore at all lol though, mild stuff like toys, handcuffs, spanking, biting, dirty talk, brat/tamer or daddy (mommy)/ little girl and blindfolds would be stuff I’m willing to try out lol basically, some light pain, toys and anything where I can be submissive and cast my cares away while still being able to be sassy/defiant suits me 🤣
Oh! For the purposes of this matchup, just male characters is fine lol like I said, I’m still trying to figure myself out so, for simplicities sake, assuming heteronorms is alright lol
Hmm as far as a type of guy I like, I can give you some anime examples 😂 Portgas D. Ace from One Piece, Itachi/Kakashi/Shikamaru from Naruto, Roy Mustang (also shoutout to Solf J. Kimblee as a guilty mention 🤣) from FMA!B, Kisuke Urahara from Bleach, Zuko/Sokka fron ATLA, Gintoki/Kamui/Takasugi/Shinpachi/Hijikata/Katsura from Gintama, Daisuke Kanbe from The Millionare Detective- Balance:Unlimited, Shinso Hitoshi/Shindo Yo from BNHA/MHA, Levi/Beel from Obey Me!, Itaru/Omi/Sakyo/Misuki/Tsuzuru/Kazunari/Banri from A3! And many more 🤣🤣 sorry for the long list lol basically to sum it up my type is kinda laid back, a lil perverted, confident, dominant, funny, teasing/flirty, caring, intellgent, mysterious, passionate and stubborn lol
Well, I hope that was enough info to get a good in depth matchup 🤣🤣 I feel like I gave too much but I wanna try to make it as detailed for y’all as possible so you can have an easier time with the matchup ahah thanks a lot, I love your blog and keep doing the good work you are doing! 🥰❤️💜💕 be sure to take care of yourselves and I hope y’all have a great weekend!! 🥰
( I apologize for sending it a second time, but there was some stuff I wanted to add that I forgot to mention until I after I sent in the first one 😭 again, I sincerely apologize!)

Tumblr media
I choose Kiba to be your Naruto boyfriend! when he first sees you, and how quiet and shy you are, Kiba will definitely want to bring your inner playfulness out! And when he sees that you do have some playfulness in you, he will see that you became comfortable enough around him that your inner weird came out! And that would really pull at Kiba’s heartstrings! Kiba will also find it fascinating that you like different types of culture, and how the world works via science and education! He isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, but he will definitely appreciate how you think, since he wants harmony in the world too! He will love the fact that you love animals and he will love the fact that you want to be a marine biologist! Being an animal lover himself, he will marry you right on the spot, just for that!
Since you are the mom friend of the group, you can totally take care of Kiba! It might not be the best, but Kiba would really love and appreciate you taking the time out of your day to do stuff for him, even if he didn’t ask for it! He will love your buddy, it being curvy and easy to hold onto, if you know what I mean wink wink. He will find your little beauty marks to be charming and I see him poking your moles and freckles every so often when he is bored! And when you tell him that you want to get tattoos, hell yeah! He will want to be there for when you get your first one!
Kiba will love the fact that you are passionate about your studies, and you main focus is school and your career! He will love the fact that you are don’t want anyone to mess up your future, and where you want to go in life! He may be a bit on the impatient side, but when he is with you, he will understand the need for patience and why it is important! He will also love the fact that you are so loyal to your friends! He doesn’t want to date anybody who isn’t loyal or isn’t compassionate to the people around them, so that will definitely be a plus in your book!
For the spicy stuff, Kiba at first would not know what he is doing but once he figures it out, ho boy, you are in a for a treat! Biting, lots of biting, and him being just very dominant, wanting to please you and make you feel like you are on cloud nine! He will let you do what you want, if it means that you are going to like what you guys do in the bedroom! From the biting to the dirty talk, he is up for anything!
Tumblr media
I choose Sakyo to be your A3! boyfriend! Sakyo will see your shy and quiet persona and think nothing much of it, but once you get comfortable around him, enough so that your inner weirdness comes out to play, he will be surprised that you were hiding such a fun and cheerful person away from him! He will also like the fact that you are passionate about science and education, since Sakyo himself is definitely one to go to science for something that can’t be explained, and he is one to like education too, since it gives you wisdom on subjects you didn’t know about before! He will love the fact that you love his culture so much, from the anime to the actual history of Japan. He will feel that you super educated on the subject, and will be appreciative of how much you love where he is from! 
Sakyo will find it adorable that you love animals, and he find it admirable that you want to become a marine biologist! It is a hard job, learning about all kinds of animals, and then discovering new ones! Yeah he will find it very impressive! And if you were to ever tell him that you want a dog or some kind of really cute animal, he will never able to say no to you! So you should use that to your advantage! As for video games, he isn’t one for the, but if you ever try to get him to play with you, he will have a hard time saying no! It will frustrate him though, that you’d keep beating him at all of them!
As for appearances, I feel Sakyo wouldn’t care about what you like, it’’s all about what is on the inside, and when he sees that you are a passionate, loving, caring, a mother figure to your friends, loyal to them, and empathetic to the people around you, he will just know that you are the person for him! Seriously, yeah he might like your curvy body, but what will really give make him like you is the fact that you are just a really nice person for people to be around! He will definitely understand the sentiment of having just a few close friends, than having like twenty acquaintances.
Sakyo will love the fact that you’d rather focus on your studies than have a boyfriend that could distract you from your future career! He would be glad to wait for you to accept him, until you are stable in your career and would be able to start dating you like he wants! And for a little spicy time, he would be a dominant as all hell. Like he would be so into dirty talk and taking you to heaven with his mouth. You might tell him you want to some like spanking and biting, and he might be into the biting, but the spanking makes him feel a little weird, so he might do it as often. But! If you ask, him he will have no reason to say no! So you better have fun with him!
Tumblr media
I choose Iwaizumi as your Haikyuu boyfriend! Much like Sakyo, Iwaizumi will see you shy and timid demeanor and think nothing of it, and if anything, he will think it is kind of cute, but would have an inkling that you are more than you put out. And once Iwaizumi sees that, yes, you are more than shy, that you have your weird quirks and can be quite loud, he will find you even more cute, what with the way you act around him and not the others! He will find it so cute that you only act like that with him and nobody else! And much like Sakyo, he will find it awesome that you like his culture so much! From the anime to the language, and everything else! He would even offer to help you learn the language and such, to help you better understand his culture! Iwaizumi love the fact that you like superheroes and practically anything fantasy! I suspect that Iwaizumi also love Marvel and such! I also feel like Iwaizumi is extremely good at video games, so when he plays with you, make sure you try your best to win against him!
Iwaizumi will feel a bond with you being like the mom friend, since he has to constantly watch over Oikawa like he is his child! And for appearances, much like Kiba, I feel as though Iwaizumi will see your blemishes and your curvy body and think it is just uniquely you! Something that he associates with you alone! And the uniqueness will definitely get him to really like you! But I feel like he will really like girls in glasses so that is a definite plus for you!
Iwaizumi will love the fact, like the others, that you are a loving and caring person. Someone that is passionate and driven! And the fact that you have all your plans thought out and organized in your own way? Oh yeah, he would definitely like that! And the fact that you are so passionate about your future that you’d much rather focus on that instead of being in a relationship! He’d understand, would he hate that fact that he has to wait for you to be stable in your career? Yes, he wouldn’t like it one bit, but he wouldn’t leave you because of it! Will he wait for you? Most definitely!
For the spicy stuff, ahahahaha Iwaizumi. He is like. A dominant bottom, he’s okay with essentially whatever you want to do, as long you both are having a good time, and you guys are feeling good! As for the biting and the spanking and all the kinky things you want to try out, he’d be into it, he’d just wouldn’t know how to go about it, so it would be a learning experience for the both of you! In the end, Iwaizumi would be into a lot of things you guys tried! So beware what he has in store for you in the future!

hi hi dear aera! (づ ◕‿◕ )づ
how have you been? sflr!! (i’ve been kinda busy with uni and work) it’s been a while since the last time I wrote you an ask (╥_╥) // are you getting assigned too much homework? how are your classes going? wishing you the best luck and success for uni!!
oh, after our conversations I could guess you’re from singapur or the philippines? (because of your english and mandarin?? + the dialect, don’t worry you don’t have to tell me yet but am I close?? haha) oh, i’m from north america but not from chicago, actually i’m not from the us! but i’m really close, you can still try to guess? (^_<) // yes, i just have one semester left! (for internship) and i’ll be free of college!! // no way, but you know some mandarin?? may I ask if your mom talks to you in mandarin? you’re so cool! you can speak three languages!! are you interested in learning a new one anytime soon?? (´。• ᵕ •。`)
oh, work limitations? should i take this as another hint? :o, one year is nothing compared to a lifetime dear! it’s okay to take your time, i’m glad you got the chance to choose something that you wanted too!! (choosing a major can be pretty difficult, that also happened to me after completing high school) I bet you’ll do great during all your uni journey, i really really hope you achieve honours. ♡( ◡‿◡ )
you seem too excited about the playlist thing!! i’m glad you want me to create you another one ^^, sure! I’ll send it to you as soon as I have it ready ♡. for me, I would like any playlist you can create, a little suggestion could be a playlist with song recommendations (can be any songs, not only kpop) or based on a season!!
yes we are!! sometimes I feel like we just started talking yesterday, I still get really excited when I go into your blog to see any response because you’re always so nice and I love to read your responses ^^ // mmm, talking about my daily life?? lately I started to work out (just indoor cycling) but I’m pretty excited to see results even when I just started last week lol (also I find funny that the day I started to do cycling, gyu uploaded his cycling night photo on ig ^^) and another thing I have been doing lately is wakening up at 7:00 am because of work and not at 9/10am anymore.... // do you like to do exercise? are you a morning person? I would love to also know about any recent exciting thing in your daily life!! how is uni life for someone from south asia? I see you have to make a long trip to uni from your place (you prev mentioned a 2h trip?) is your uni campus huge? I thought all countries still had only online classes? feel free to answer with a lot or not too much text, I’m always looking forward to getting to know about you and your daily life. (◕‿◕)♡
wishing you a great sunny day!! remember to eat and sleep well!
–f🐯❤️.
hello f🐯❤️ it's okay, im swarmed with assignments as well! It's picking up its pace ㅠ ㅠ classes are okay, it's just the expectations ashdjdfkfl. Hbu how are things at uni for you? Your vacation is over so soon? Close! Around that area!! mhmm lemme guess a lil more, Mexico city?
no, my mom speaks to me in eng while my dad speaks to me in chi! But as I grew older, we switched to dialect as I picked up from hearing them converse with my aunts, uncles & cousins! 3 languages yet all of them are subpar (´ . .̫ . `) no, my brain capacity of language is at its limits •́ ‿ ,•̀ what about, what language(s) do you speak, spanish?
yeah that's a hint too hehe. I'm hoping I get through uni okay with at least a decent GPA </3 you're graduating pretty soon!!! Do you have any plans after uni? Yeah!! I wanna expand my playlist a bit more! I'll try to make a playlist on another post! Dw I'll tag caratanonevent3 so you can find it!
Waking up early feels really good....... Especially when you're well rested or you exercise straight after waking up. I can't say if I like it or not ahskdmflfl bc I get lazy at the thought of doing the exercises but when I do it that's a different story, however, when it comes to swimming I love it a lot!!! I'd do anything for it unless im swarmed with stuff or im tired! I'd like to think I'm a morning person bc i enjoy waking up early except my body clock is screwed so badly that my sleeping timing is really late ( ・ั﹏・ั)
Half the week I'm usually in campus for f2f lectures & tutorials, by the time I'm home, I'm ready to jump into bed (≧▽≦) but I'd have dinner, play a bit of game, reorganize my notes and unwind before bed! Recently though, I've opted to stay out a little later than usual instead of going straight home after lectures. Solo adventures are really comforting even when there's no destination in mind! I used to dislike going to places alone but now I like it so much I'm afraid it would further encourage me stop socializing and hanging out with my friends lmao (๑•���•) OHH AND, the libraries here are open again!!! So i might drop by one soon to borrow a book!! ( ꈍᴗꈍ) Yeah my uni is on the opp end of where I stay!! So now that it's covid, the travelling time is shorter, 1h30mins! The uni I'm enrolled in requires us to be in campus for classes and I very much prefer that than to zoom classes hehe. Feels like an invisible veil when we're not having physical classes and it feels very disconnecting to me. :-(
Sorry for the delay in the replies! Mentally feels like I'm drifting in and out ahsjsmflfl, sounds like it's really bad but dw it's not, it's just things that are fluctuating! I hope to chat with you very soon again :-( miss talking about anything and everything with you f🐯❤️ please stay safe and enjoy the lil vacation adventure you mentioned in the following ask!! Hear from you soon <3
Ps. I saw that the event has come to an end!!! But you can choose to reveal yourself or remain anonymous if you like bc idm. Either way, i don't think anything will change even if you reveal yourself bc it's comforting talking to you like this too hehe. THE Mysterious penpal carat anon F (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)
