GETTING to know you, getting to know all about YOO…

Companion track

It’s been a a wonderful week(s) for our MOON & STAR .  After his A-list Award for Style, (his  first winning this year?), then came a  successful MCing stints (in which he’s absolutely adorable with his signature shy, awkward smile/laugther and witty, unique mcing style and * pants *!), and now a numerous year end nomination (My fave the best couple nomination) . What a week for a  fangirls heart and pandemonium @the preventoruim!

And so, while waiting for our YOO AH IN’s awards receiving time (I’m absolutely positive, he’ll be receiving a LOT, or else!), how about getting to know YOO time?

I’m not going to ask about your AGE, nope, I once read that asking a woman their age is a crime and rude. So not that…I won’t ask about your NAME, nope, that would be a cyber hazard…SAFETY first.   I won’t ask for your Country either, coz, some wouldn’t want to be trace… (Anyone involve in a conspiracy theory here? Or being stalked by their cyber BF or Husbands? Just kidding here!)

But, seriously if our YOO AH IN someday visit this site, I believe he will be glad to see this kind of sharing, let me quote one of his interview as shared by Jaeshinah.

Yoo Ah In, who is a child of the generation for whom self-expression and living are synonymous, is an unprecedented type of young star who communicates through Twitter and Cyworld with the world that swarms his life. When fans who gather at filming locations press their camera shutters, he takes pictures of them through his car window and uploads them online, and when reporters take out tape recorders, this actor says, “It’s unfair. I want to record and use it, too!” The 21st century actor Yoo Ah In who insists, “I’m a netizen, too”

We’ve been discussing about  him endlessly, how about sharing something in return? (Crossing fingers on him visiting this site)

And so here are some Questions (feel free to add another if you have something that you wanted to ask..live curious guys!)

1. Are you a Proud ICOMYM(Inappropiate.Crush On a Much Younger Man) member or LSAYAFG member (Lucky Same Age/Younger Age Fan Girl)?

2. What is the meaning behind your Cyber/User name? anything special behind the name? Care to share?

3. If YOO AH IN is a native/local dish, what would he be? And Why?

4. If you’re working what work related term that reminds you of YOO AH IN, if you’re a student, what subject remind you of him? Why?

5. If you’re given a chance to meet our YOO AH IN (I’m hyperventilating just thinking about it!) and given a chance to ask just ONE QUESTION, what would it be?

6. What is the crazies’ thing you have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom?

7. What’s your YOO AH IN favorite line/Quote/Interview?

8. Lastly, what is YOO AH IN to you?

(This is for me)

How do you say Merry Chrismas & Happy Yoo Ah In New Year in your native tounge?

The REVOLUTIONARY BOY said “ I feel friendship toward my fans”. Same here!

Nice to meet you all…YAIHaven family!

My Answer: Writter gets to answer first right? Uh, lucky me!

1. I am a proud ICOMYM member 😀

2. A group of friends promised each other to name their first daugther “Summer”. It was supposed to be my “future”daughter s’ name.

3.I’d say He’s the ADOBO, YAI ADOBO! Why, because its a versatile dish, it can be cook using any kind of meat (seafood, pork, chicken, etc). It can be eaten as is or with rice.  It was a combination of different ingriedients such as vinegar, soysouce, a little bit of sugar and little bit of pepper . Combined together VIOLA! A wonderful dish!  Just like our YOO AH IN.

4. Hating work right now, so can’t think of any…but maybe the internet…hahaha, because it’s amazing! Just like him 🙂

5.Do you have an English name? (D..mn! Can’t think of any!?? Hahahah, seriously!)

6. Buying a YAI magazine containing lauguage I do not understand..but still happy for doing it.

7. & “Promised? 12 minutes, 24 seconds? Me, too”& “Ignorance is scarier than narrow-mindedness”

8. Right now, he is my Sanctuary…(the haven…my home)when the real world became unbearable..I just look him up, read his interviews and I’m ok.

P.S

I also wanted to share an absolutely wonderful expirience I had with YAI fandom.  My first expirience, so I’m so glad that my first was unforgettable one…like finding a long lost friends and family (later I’ll post some pix if the girls gave their permission).

  1. As promised, here are my answers ^^

    1. I’m a proud to be an ICOMYM member – I wouldn’t say it’s an “inappropriate” one, however. It’s not really crush either, it’s more of admiration for someone so wonderful and precious ♥

    2. Although I use summersky here, I am more known as kitsuneMD in other sites (twitter, livejournal, etc.) Kitsune (きつね/狐) is a Japanese word meaning fox. I actually took it from Megumi Takani (Rurouni Kenshin), who was called “kitsune-onna” or fox woman. Kitsune’s characteristics, especially in folklores, appeal very much to me – fierce, intelligent, cunning, and can be aloof. That’s why I was so happy when YAI was likened to a fox in one of his interviews. The MD part is because I’m a physician ^^

    As for summersky, it’s a name of a Dungeons and Dragons character I used to play. Geek much? 😛 I also think that the name sounds very bright and positive ^^

    3. I can’t think of a local dish to compare him to but for me, Ah In is like cheesecake – because cheesecake can be a little tricky to make. You have to make sure the ingredients are in room temperature before mixing them all together, and when you mix them you have to be careful not to overdo it or else it will create lots of air bubbles in the mixture causing the cake to collapse, then you have to put it in a water bath and time it very well so it doesn’t crack. When it’s done, you can eat it plain or put any topping you like and it will taste as great. Just like Ah In, he thinks hard when choosing which roles to play and though he seem to act quite naturally, you can see that he puts a lot of thought to make his portrayal as precise and accurate as possible. And like cheesecake, you can take him as Ah In, as Hong Sik, or as any of the characters he has portrayed and he’s just as wonderful!

    4. ARRYTHMIA. Yoo Ah In can make my heart go tachycardic (fast beating) then bradycardic (slow beating) then tachycardic again and before I knew it, my heart is on flatline and needs to be defibrillated ***____***

    5. CAN WE BE FRIENDS? (This is as forward as I can get ^^; Plus I definitely would love to have a friend like him~)

    6. Volunteering to have two humongous boxes of YAI Esquire mags delivered to my place (THANKS AGAIN JAESHINAH!), then carry more than half of it (9 mags weighing 1.6 kg each) for distribution 😛 No regrets, ’cause I got to meet fellow lovely YAI fan girls (like the author of this awesome post) ♥

    7. It’s hard to pick just one…

    from Twitter:
    (11/18/2010) Even if I embrace the reality, it’s not that I accept the system. Saying this would connect to that I’m an incompetent person in the end, but even that was gladly ran over by the reality, and I flew home miserably, barely, only, and secretly to sharpen a knife. Wonder how many tails I need to wag (for them) through the back door..Tired.

    Time, life, society, or bullshit. Damn ‘textbook teaching it’s all like that’ of those names. I just wanna beat those teachers to death seriously brightly. Kids are all ‘like that.’ Yes, that’s right lol Isn’t that so? Is that that easy?!!

    from Cine 21 Nov. 2010 interview:
    After , I [remember] thinking that I must not falter and collapse under the situation I was thrust into, and that I had to firmly take a step forward and wait.

    People think of me as very negative, but isn’t even just the strength to keep living even while burdened with that negativity a powerful positivity?

    8. Yoo Ah In to me is an inspiration – he makes me feel, think, and realize things that I have not thought of yet or may have forgotten already. At first I was just here for the pretties, but through his shows and interviews, I found out how amazingly incredible he is. He is not just another pretty face – Yoo Ah In is packed with enormous amount of talent and intelligence to boot. I don’t think I’ll tire of him anytime soon.

    • “ARRYTHMIA”

      LOLLLLL. Such a great pick!!!

      I totally agree with your answer to #8. At first I really was just here for the sexy and then I got sucked in, mind body and soul… ahahhaa. And now here we are. ^^

      • OMG, arrhythmia… LOL… I have this tachycardia symptoms, sumtimes my heart beats faster than normal and must take a rest on ICCU 😀 Yooh Ah In is another heart attack for me everytime I saw his shy smile, but luckily I don’t need to take my pills, just go to this preventorium and I’m OK 😀

      • Just read your comment… our Yoo Ah In is definitely an arrythmia-inducer and all things cardiologic – he should have a warning label on him that says: “Not for the faint of heart” hahaha ^^

        “And now here we are. ^^”
        – And now here we are succumbing to heart attacks because of him *___*

        • almost get another heart attack when I saw my twitter this morning, omg… he tweet again… this is my first time to see him tweet after I follow him and I get so excited, my hands cold and hardly breath… please please please let me get the translation here coz i won’t use google for that ^_^

          • Haha.I also go to twitter just now.
            Actually, want to tweet something.
            But when I saw his tweet, I scream!
            * ok, a little scream. lol *

            What I want to tweet before it went missing from
            mind..

LOL, the YAI recipe galore! ME=Hungry! The YAI questions! Wow, you gals rocks! For the questions, please lets compile those & translate to Korean ( any kindhearted korean speaking in the house? ) and send to our YAI, it would be great if he could answer some 🙂 hahahahha….(like the “will you marry me” question! LOL)

  4. 1. I am a Proud ICOMYM though I’m just 1 year younger than YAI :p

    2. No meaning, it’s just my name in Italian :p

    3. Rujak! It’s Indonesian dish like fruit salad with palm sugar and chili sauce. Taste so good, sweet but hot at the same time, just like a party in your mouth! That’s so YAI! :p

    4. Actually I work in a broadcasting company and I’m kinda familiar with software for editors. So every time I use softwares such as Sony Vegas Pro, YAI always pops in my head because I always like watching, faving, subbing and rating his fansvids. Imma make one too!

    5. Whoa I guess I could’t even talk! Hmmm…okay, since I also love writing/blogging, maybe my question is: Can I get to hang out with you and talk about blogging while drinking sometimes? 😀

    6. I think this is the first time I ordered Esquire from Korea, and I flaunt YAI wallpapers on my computer screen at the office. Since my office is an open workplace without cubicle, everyone can see him :p

    7. “I’m someone who can’t have the ordinary amount of positivity” – YAI

    8. I always fall in love with and admire smexy stars/celebs. YAI reminds me of Nicholas Saputra (Indonesian actor) He’s been the one that I look up to. And now I add YAI on my list. He inspires me a lot with his words, he makes me ponder more about life 🙂

    9. Selamat Hari Natal & Selamat Tahun YAI Baru! lol…

  5. This is really random suggestion i got from reading everyone’s fandom experiences,

    the reviews of YAI movies that the Haven members did for the fan book could we publish them on this site????…i would love to read them and im sure others would too

  6. Hi everyone! May I join in?

    1. Are you a Proud ICOMYM(Inappropiate.Crush On a Much Younger Man) member or LSAYAFG member (Lucky Same Age/Younger Age Fan Girl)?

    I am a Proud ICOMYM (Inappropiate.Crush On a Much Younger Man)… I don’t think it is Inappropriate though… *smile*.. no matter at what age I am now, my heart stays at 25 forever haha..

    2. What is the meaning behind your Cyber/User name? anything special behind the name? Care to share?

    When I was a kid, people used to call me this name whenever I told them my real name…. my name was kind of unique (to some people) back then..

    3. If YOO AH IN is a native/local dish, what would he be? And Why?

    Can I choose something other than native/local dish? I am a fan of dark chocolate.. bitter+sweet, it is either you like it or you don’t… but once you fall in love with it, you will love it forever..

    4. If you’re working what work related term that reminds you of YOO AH IN, if you’re a student, what subject remind you of him? Why?

    Haha I am a bit of both at the moment, working + studying. ‘Passion” is the word that reminds me of YOO AH IN.. you need to be passionate in whatever you do, be it work or study..

    5. If you’re given a chance to meet our YOO AH IN (I’m hyperventilating just thinking about it!) and given a chance to ask just ONE QUESTION, what would it be?

    WOW… if this really going to happen *sigh*.. anyway.. this would be my question:

    “Can I be your personal assistance for a day? I’ll even work for free..” haha

    6. What is the crazies’ thing you have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom?

    This is crazy since I spent most of my time now days googling about Yoo Ah In, making this Haven as the start up page of my browser and keep on checking this site every now and then hoping for the updates, keep watching all the Moon Jae Shin scenes over and over again, have put aside some money for the Director cut dvd (if it is USD100 it will be almost RM400 for me!) and now looking for classes or a tutor who could teach me korean so that I can someday twitt him! and all of these while I’m suppose to be preparing proposal defense for my PhD…! ghee.. I am crazy 🙂

    7. What’s your YOO AH IN favorite line/Quote/Interview?

    “I am lonely because I’m different”.. I can relate that to myself..

    8. Lastly, what is YOO AH IN to you?

    His words and his perspective on life inspire me..! Thanks Yoo Ah In for making life to be more interesting again..:)

  7. heyya..
    let me try to answer ur questions..

    1. Are you a Proud ICOMYM(Inappropiate.Crush On a Much Younger Man) member or LSAYAFG member (Lucky Same Age/Younger Age Fan Girl)?

    i am a Proud ICOMYM member :))
    im a year older than YAI…

    2. What is the meaning behind your Cyber/User name? anything special behind the name? Care to share?

    that’s my real nickname 😀

    3. If YOO AH IN is a native/local dish, what would he be? And Why?

    That would be ‘grilled meatballs’, it is a spicy –spicy, I mean it- delicious food from Malang, Indonesia. Don’t care how spicy it is that it would hurt my gastritis I wont give a damn, since I like it so much.. and so does with YAI, no matter how hard or how many hours he got me to decode his words I wont care, otherwise, I enjoy it so much..

    4. If you’re working what work related term that reminds you of YOO AH IN, if you’re a student, what subject remind you of him? Why?

    The 1st subject that flash into my mind once I finished read this question is Philosophy…I love this subject, his deep thoughts has drown me into the philosophical world and made me try my best to understand his thoughts.. love it  (while I got nothing in my mind when it comes to work :P)

    5. If you’re given a chance to meet our YOO AH IN (I’m hyperventilating just thinking about it!) and given a chance to ask just ONE QUESTION, what would it be?

    How do you see yourself as a part of the universe?

    6. What is the crazies’ thing you have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom?

    Still live my daily life as usual, buat I just can’t stop myself from browsing, goggling, blogging in my work-hours only to get infos, photos, everything about this man

    7. What’s your YOO AH IN favorite line/Quote/Interview?

    ‘’i would like to be the most rustic person, to the limits of my emotion’’

    8. Lastly, what is YOO AH IN to you?

    He’s totally a stranger that could bring back the-old-version-of-me which I loved most and which I have lost for a while. He was nothing 2 days ago, even when I watched him as Geul Oh, physical attraction only. But when I read his tweets, he captured my attention in only 4 sentences. He even, somehow, could bring me back to the philosophy world where I used to live. Even though maybe he’s not being so philosophically, but it did to me.

    thank you so much for giving these great questions..i have to spend my almost 3 hours to answer them, but i’d love to do this :))

  8. 1. I am LSAYAFG member.
    2. It’s just my real name.
    3. I think he is like a brownie, its hard on surface but when you chew it, its soft inside.
    4. He reminded me of social studies.
    5. The question for him is: ‘What was his actual ambition beside being an actor?’
    6. Trying to act like him. *his facial expressions while modeling…
    7. “I’m a netizen, too.” This makes me feel that he is like one of us…
    8. He is like a twin to me..
    😀

  9. I hope I’m not too late for this… but here’s my answer

    1. ICOMYM

    2. Because I like the mermaid.

    3. Local dish – the sour and spicy asam pedas. Because it’s hot and I like it. But to me, AH IN is more like coffee. Totally addictive and can definitely chase away my sleepiness.

    4. Nothing comes to mind but I wish I can be as creative as AH IN when I’m drafting the Board minutes.

    5. Errr…. can I hug you???? kekeke….

    6. Joined twitter. Followed seeksik. But never bother to tell my friends that I have a twitter account.

    7. Even when I’m alone, I want to be more alone.

    8. To me he is someone who doesn’t know me but someone whom I know from reading his interviews and tweets (thank you translators!) The more I know about him, the more I want to know more about him. But no matter how much I want to know about him, I wouldn’t want to crowd his personal space.

    Merry Christmas everyone 🙂

    • No one’s is too late to join the fun! 😀 #2, love the little mermaid too 😀 &#6 dear, you are not alone, hahhahha, no one among my “real” life friends knew of my Twitter too! Hahhahahha!But, nevertheless, I found new amazing friends in there as well 🙂

  10. Finally, I got it all answered. Nowadays, I am just busy…..

    1. I am a proud ICOMYM. Definitely a LOT older than our dear YAI.

    2. K stands for korean and fan is fan. After watching a lot of Korean dramas, I become interested to anything related to Korea. Be it people, culture, education, entertainment, etc. But sadly, I have never been there.

    3. Apple pie. Not a local dish but I just love apple pie. It’s something that I can’t resist. The moment I have one piece, I will go for the second, third, etc although I am on strict diet. Everyone should be forbidden to know YAI especially me because once you get to know him, there is no stopping it. He is such person – apple pie:)

    4. None of my works relate me to YAI. But my situation at my workplace reminded me of YAI situation in Korean entertainment world where you don’t really want to be in the circle but you just have to and you try not to get so wet although you jump into the stream.

    5. Can you tell me how you get over those period when you are consumed with the thought ‘I want to die;’ it was just—-It’s okay if I fall asleep like this and don’t wake up tomorrow.

    6. Maybe this is nothing for everyone else but writing so many responses to this site are really the craziest thing I have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom. I am normally a silent reader but due to YAI and SKKS (YAI is in SKKS), I break this hard shell and start to express my feeling and opinion for everyone to read. Sometimes I feel very embarrassed when I read back my published respone (especially with my terrible english) but I am following YAI. He is a person who express.

    7. There are so many, but these are the one I always remember:

    It’s okay if all my dreams don’t come true by the time I’m twenty-five; thirty-five is fine, and forty-five is, too. And I thought it was much better to protect myself and proceed slowly than to lose myself in the effort to shorten that time.

    An original mindset is the absolute bottom foundation of what you have when you’re working for something or searching for something or trying to figure out what happiness means to you. That always has to come first, but the moment it comes second or third, you begin to not be yourself. So no matter how unbelievably hard it may get, let’s always keep it number one! Even if everything else realistically ends up a bit mixed up.

    I don’t want live life just to live it; I want to be awake as a person

    8. Frankly, he is the person I envy. I wish I am that wise when I am at his age. His words are so true that I sometimes hate him for pointing it out. I feel like saying “shut up your mouth, don’t be too honest”. I envy him for being able to be honest and expressive at the same time.

  11. i want joint too ………i hope not too late
    1.I am Proud ICOMYM(Inappropiate.Crush On a Much Younger Man) just 1 year older than YAI
    2. may sound naive … but I do not have a cyber name, I used my real name … I do not know but I’m proud to use it
    3. If YOO AH IN is a native/local dish, what would he be? And Why?
    Rujak buah .. in a plate there are a variety of fruit with a combination color and taste of sweet, sour, spicy, salty … but it all fits in my tongue, I could feel it all with a single bite. … so not only spoil the taste also spoil the eye …
    4. language lessons, might sound boring but for me, every word that has many meanings … even now I still wonder about how language can be found … why each area has different languages … and how they can find a deal using a specific word for a specific purpose …
    and for me YAI like language lessons … increasingly viewed increasingly interested
    5. Do you often feel lonely?
    6. What is the crazies’ thing you have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom?
    2 days no sleep, download movies YAI, delete the files work for YAI images can fit on my laptop and make a MV for him but for beginner like me ( learning editing because of him) desperate because I could not convert the video finally my first MV just a slideshow T,T
    7. What’s your YOO AH IN favorite line/Quote/Interview?
    …. I’m lonely because I’m different. (just like me… )
    8. Lastly, what is YOO AH IN to you?
    I initially thought the explosion just a moment when I was so interested in character Jaeshin Moon, (the perfect man for me) but then I reviewed, I also like his character on antique bakery, strongles Chil-woo, a Man Who Can not get married …
    I’m surprised he made me do many things that I did not like before, such as contact with technology, learning editing … I feel like a different people … feel more alive. more have the passion ..
    (This is for me)
    How do you say Merry Chrismas & Happy Yoo Ah In New Year in your native tounge?

  14. 1. YAFG member

    2. Cyber/User name?
    The first 3 letters of my last name, first 3 letters of my first name and year I was born.

    3. Native/local dish, what would he be? And Why?
    This is really unique question. When I read it I was thinking of a native Korean dish, so… I think Yoo Ah In would be Kimchee Chigae, b/c it’s a classic soup, it’s well balanced and it’s you always want more.

    4. If you’re working what work related term that reminds you of YOO AH IN, if you’re a student, what subject remind you of him? Why?

    5. ONE QUESTION: What are your thoughts on the Israel/Palestine conflict?

    6. What is the crazies’ thing you have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom?
    Stayed up watching SKKS drama.

    7. Favorite line/Quote/Interview?
    I really enjoyed his interview with Asia10. Specifically when he reflected on Jae-shin: “What I felt was so child-like about Jae-shin was how poor he was at expressing himself and how he didn’t know what to do about how he felt. He was so much of an idealist that he was trapped inside his own thoughts and felt, ‘Nobody hurts more than I do. Nobody is having a tougher time than I am. My pain is the worst.’ Because surprisingly, people with such pain or sadness feel that they’re more superior. There was a time that I felt like that as well. ”

    8. What is YOO AH IN to you?
    To me, Yoo Ah In is an intellectual and talented actor who chooses not to be confined by the pressures and the attempts of silence from the Korean entertainment industry, as well as netizens. I absolutely adore that he has a brilliant mind and social awareness. I also love his active voice, his need for self expression and his love for freedom. His voice and opinions are really needed in the Korean entertainment industry and I value his courage to use his voice.

  15. 1. Proud YAFG YAY YAY YAY! 😀 😀 😀 HAHA.

    2. Okay, I usually go by amyliaz which is just my name and the initial of my last name. The other moniker I go by is holdingontolove which is well self-explanatory I think? I’m quite idealistic about love and still believe in soulmates and all that jazz and yeah, I just still believe that true love exists in this world. Naive maybe. XD

    3. Chicken rice! At first look, he doesn’t seem very special but the moment you’ve tasted him… you can’t stop. You’ve fallen head over heels in love with him! XDDD Seriously, chicken rice is that delicious. XD

    4. Subject? Philosophy. HAHA. It’s just, he’s such a thoughtful person… I mean, look at his tweets! He just really thinks a lot and posts intelligent things. I’d love for him to teach me about life. XD

    5. Wow that’s tough! I think I’ll ask him what are his views on love? Or religion? I don’t know exactly what I’d ask till I’m in that moment but yeah, probably something which will allow me to know more about him as a person rather than things like – WHY ARE YOU SO GORGEOUS?! LOL.

    6. Nothing too crazy yet for Yoo Ah In. In the midst of setting up something but yeah. For fandom, I once stayed up till 2am every night and woke up at 7am for a week, making placards for Shinhwa when they came to town. It was the week before my major prelims too! It was all worth it though. xD

    7. “A heart endlessly seeking knowledge. A heart that can break me out of myself. I am not the answer; I must not stop before the answer but must keep asking and discovering, and find a way to not close any doors to myself. How could there be an answer when neither the wind nor I ever stop?”
    He’s such an inspiration~ *_*

    8. He’s my inspiration, motivation, hope. Someone who is popular yet humble, intelligent yet doesn’t show it off… Seriously, do I need to say more?! Amazing awesome person.

    (This is for me)

    Okay I’m Singaporean so my native tongue is actually English? But I have a second language… We call it “mother tongue” and well, mine’s Malay.

    Selamat Hari Krismas & Selamat Yoo Ah In Tahun Baru!

    Okay, my mum’s Chinese so I also know the Chinese one…

    圣诞节快乐 & 新 Yoo Ah In 年快乐~ LOL not too sure if I can interject the Yoo Ah In there like that. Sounds a bit weird. OH WELL. I TRIED. XD

    HELLO EVERYONE NICE TO MEET YOU ALL! 😀 😀 😀
    How do you say Merry Chrismas & Happy Yoo Ah In New Year in your native tounge?

  16. First time posting here ^^ *waves*

    1. Are you a Proud ICOMYM(Inappropiate.Crush On a Much Younger Man) member or LSAYAFG member (Lucky Same Age/Younger Age Fan Girl)?

    I am a proud LSAYAFG. Ah In was actually born in the same year and month as me ^_^

    2. What is the meaning behind your Cyber/User name? anything special behind the name? Care to share?

    I loved an anime called “Fushigi Yuuugi” so I ‘stole’ the name from the main character and it became my pen name. The “20” is how old I was when I started using it.

    3. If YOO AH IN is a native/local dish, what would he be? And Why?

    Not a native dish but I’d say a strawberry shortcake. It makes you’r mouth water just by looking at it and then when you taste it, you feel like it’s just like you’ve imagined to be inside and out: too good for words.

    4. If you’re working what work related term that reminds you of YOO AH IN, if you’re a student, what subject remind you of him? Why?

    Positive energy. Because he can brighten a people’s day just by giving them his smile. There’s something natural about his positively unconventional self that keeps people smiling too and thanking him the fact that he IS different from everyone else.

    5. If you’re given a chance to meet our YOO AH IN (I’m hyperventilating just thinking about it!) and given a chance to ask just ONE QUESTION, what would it be?

    – Would you consider to conceed me enough of your time? Because I’d love to figure you out.

    *that would definitely take a lifetime ^^*

    6. What is the crazies’ thing you have done for our YOO AH IN/Fandom?

    – Making a marathon watching all his past projects while getting less and less sleep despite havng to work on the next day. Oh, and endure more than 5 episodes of “Strongest Chil Woo” while waiting for him to finally appear ^_^

    7. What’s your YOO AH IN favorite line/Quote/Interview?

    – “I’m lonely because I’m different. Still, I think I’m a more positive person than anybody else.”

    – “People become cowards because they have someone they want to protect”
    (from SKK)

    8. Lastly, what is YOO AH IN to you?

    – A chalenge. Besides drooling, he makes me think; think about how people keep looking at the world in such a plain boring way when there’s obviously more to it than just what we see and that maybe istead of “why?” we should start thinking “why not?”.

  19. 1. I’m a proud LSAYAFG member (only 17)

    2. Well, I was reading a book written by Lian Hearn, and I loved it. So I used her name as a base to create my name. Moreover, it’s close to learn (and I think this world is full of things to learn) plus “i” a letter that I really like because we’re smiling anytime we’re saying this letter. Finally, it’s really rare in my language that a word has 3 vowel, so it was a temptative to be creative ^^

    3. Oh, this question is so hard, cause I don’t know many local dishes… I’d say “mygas” (but I don’t know how to write this.) It’s made with fried semolina and we can add whatever we want to eat with. I really love it like YAI (^^), and like him it may seem easy at first sight but it really isn’t, and with all the different kind of meat we can add, it’s always different, but still the same dish. Like his roles, he plays different character, but it’s always a way to see a new part of him.

    4.Philosophy. I hate this subject at school, but his way of thinking influences me to think about myself, and his writings are full of deep meanings. That’s why there are so interesting whether his interviews or tweets.

    5. What do you think about religion ? if my brains is working
    Otherwise “Can I hug you ?”

    6. Going to this site every day. Reading every interview of him. Watching videos about him. I mean, I never did that before, because all other stars seemed not really interesting to me, well not intersting enough…

    7.“I think the true way to be mature is to continuously seek answers, ask questions, and go forward as well as fail at times.” So true, it became my motto !

    8. My inspiration to live a better life. (and the actor who moved me the most)

    Joyeux Noël et Bonne année. (French yeah ^^)

  20. 1. LSAYAFG member!

    2. I’ve always loved watching the children’s series Little Bear and the simplicity of the show reminds me so much of being a child laying in the sun on a beautiful summer day, simple and sweet I think.

    3.Not really sure, I think something like buns with meat because biting into those Asian buns that are so fluffy/chewy …mmm, he is just mmm.

    4. Photography, we all know he is just adorable but in a photo you can make people feel something, and he makes us feel something, so I think they are comparable. I think poetry but the contemporary type, just a sentence full with feeling, that’s what he is.

    5. I would really love a hug from him, but the question I would ask is (if i do not get starstruck) his favorite book and if he enjoys to read.

    6. I haven’t really had much opportunity to showcase how crazy my fandom can get, mostly just saved all his pictures I find online into a folder and watch every movie/drama he’s ever been in (I need to get to Korea first)!

    7. Funniest part of SKKS when he first meets Park Min Young’s character and tells her not to make her bowing a habit she cannot break later, he just kicks everybody’s ass and walks away super cool, makes me laugh every time.

    8. Just a guy who’s gorgeous, an awesome actor and very unattainable.
