I met my first Korean celebrity this weekend. I actually don’t even know his name, but I am always fascinated by him on MTV Korea and even though all his interviews are in Korean, he is really entertaining and funny so I watch his show “Most Wanted” anyways. Basically it is a music video countdown show and he interviews random people around Seoul in-between videos. After the race we went over to Sincheon and I spotted him and went into total dork mode. I always make fun of people for their weird behavior regarding celebrities, but once I saw him I just snapped. It suddenly hit me that the Korean show I watch takes please in Korea and I LIVE IN KOREA. So I ran up to him and our conversation went something like this:
me: HI I WATCH YOUR SHOW ALL THE TIME, I LOVE IT!
him: Really? Wow, thanks. (he speaks perfect English. awesome.)
me: YEAH I THINK YOU’RE SO AWESOME!
him: Thanks, you’re awesome too! *HUG* (ok maybe i made up the “you’re awesome too” in my memory, but the hug was real.)
me: Can I get a picture with you? Totally lame, I know, but I think you’re great.
him: Yeah, of course.
me: WHO HAS A CAMERA? TAKE A PICTURE TAKE A PICTURE!!!!
I wouldn’t be surprised if he tracks me down sometime soon to interview me for his show. I mean, obviously he saw my killer sense of fashion and I played it totally cool when we met…After the interview we’ll probably fall in love and I’ll become co-host of Most Wanted. Guess I’ll be in Korea longer than I planned.
this is like my most favorite post ever! please fall in love and get married just so i can meet him cause he seems rad! (i’m also really glad that you were looking so awesome when you met him)
you met your idol. so lucky
