Nowadays whenever I see him I feel anger. Other idols are probably going through much the same but seeing him, such a famous popular veteran, just fills me with anger. It's sad because I want to feel happy when I see him.

Nice writeup! Good to get to know you a bit.

I don't remember much since it's been a while, but I know that they were things he did or said that I only understood after he explained his story.

Like the constant references to the military service wasn't just a concept. And things like that. It's more as in giving a different meaning to his actions.

Thank you for sharing. I have now learned that the couple name for Gyu-hyun and Ja-yeon is Gyu-yeon. This is incredibly important information and I am very grateful.

Keep in mind that in the case of Jodie Foster, while she was a student at Yale, she was a victim of stalking by John Hinckley Jr. who became obsessed with her after TAXI DRIVER (1976), and went on to attempt the 1981 assassination of then-President Ronald Reagan (3 others were wounded). So, Jodie Foster knows how out-of-control fame can become deadly. If anyone understands the underbelly of fame, it's is Jodie Foster -- and yet! she perseveres in carving out a private life and still succeeding in her chosen profession.

I don't think so. He lived in USA during 7 years but he's Korean.

What was attitude during Master in the House?

This really has been a tough week for you. I hope that as you use the three day mental health weekend to emphasise your need for self care that you are able to find what need in the coming weeks too.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend. Sending you many hugs.

On women news... this reminds me that a few weeks ago my Korean teacher asked us what we would want to be if we were born again, and most of the women in my class, including my teacher, said they wanted to be born again as men since life would be easier that way. Then our teacher talked about how she feels unsafe to even go buy something at the convenience store. And how many men feel "offended" (as in angry) when a women crosses the street because of them in the middle of the night/evening.
Like, dude, watch the news? Talk to a single real woman? Or do you need a body swap to see what is like?
No wonder girls want to be single. If a man can't even understand that much... Yikes.

I said I would want to be born again rich.

Well it's Friday, so it's time for another Stupid Question:

How does the show Our Song actually work? And, how influential is Our Song? And, in the case of LYN, how significant were his appearances on the show? Was there one or two LYN performances that boosted him to another level of recognition by those in the musical community (idk if that's the right phrase...) like producers, music directors etc?
