2018 July 28

reached around 9PM (ETA 945) and there wasn’t a lot of people so i was scared i’m at the wrong place but nope the people came afterwards
about 14-15 body guards came and formed a barricade

was standing on the right of the barricade but more people so moved to the left side of the human barricade where there’s lesser people
didn’t write my name cos i thought its so unnecessary but then saw other people’s letter and saw that they wrote their names so i quickly scribbled my name at the bottom of the back of the envelop lol

the letter!

the envelope

they came out: jeong chaeng nayeon dahyun jihyo
called chaeng and she was like considering whether to take my letter and took it in the end (according to may and pat she was shocked by me lol)

after she took my letter i feel like my life’s mission has been accomplished so i didn’t follow them so i was like EH WHY NEVER FOLLOW
so followed and got a super clear view of her
stopped at the glass doors cos only one side opens (one side is for the other direction)
never follow them out cos i wanted to go back and wait for the second batch
but they took damn long cos foreign passports i think

second batch: tzuyu momo sana mina
tzuyu is god visuals omg
like tall and v got 气质 and just really damn pretty
momo and sana fan service queens
caught momo accepting fan letters and waving
caught sana nodding to a fan who asked her if she ate (SUCH SWEETHEARTS REALLY)
mina is so quiet AND THEY ARE ALL QUITE SHORT
like mina is about my height, chaeng is not that much shorter than them/me and jeong and tzuyu don’t feel that tall also so idk man haha i guess it’s all in comparison

but this is the closest you will ever get to them really
next time want to give letter just give at airport lol
security is tight forming a circle around them but they never force you to stay like 500km away from them
chaeng was legit like 5 steps max in front of me
tq for accepting my letter chaeyoung-ah, sorry if i scared you

saw TWICE twice

13 July 2018
went for music bank to see twice and had to wake up at 515 to catch the first train to see them for 10s ded ded ded
arrived at around 7 and they entered around 710 wow if i was any min later i would have missed them 
they arrived and it was super crowded and they went in super fast so i didn't even get to see them well
was in a good spot for the gopro but not a good spot for my eyes so i moved then in the end the video was shitty but saw them with my eyes so hey good enough 

so:
1. mina is damn fucking pretty i saw her first
2. chaeng and that bright hair makes her easier to spot
3. momo’s extensions are gross but her smile is great
4. jihyo looks great with a tan
5. nayeon turned around at the door to respond to her fans

the real deal came around 1120+ where they left for lunch 
at 1120ish there was this commotion at the entrance and TWO vans rolled up and everyone crowded around the vans and the entrance 
SO I KNEW SOMETHING BIG WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AKA twice is coming out la 
that's why i quickly cross the barricade to go over to the other side

originally on this side

ran to this side

and cos some of the fansite masters went to eat and just left their ladders there so i just used their ladders to have a good view
mina came out alone first and the van drove off with only her and the rest took awhile to come out so i stopped recording
she was in gross slippers and a gross bright blue costumes with a blanket wrapped around her but still managed to look like she descended from heaven or came out from a castle A LITERAL PRINCESS i'm telling you

second batch: jeong tzuyu sana chaeng came out in this order
SHOUTED SANA'S NAME AND SHE TURNED AND LOOKED AND SMILED AND WAVED
SHOUTED CHAENG NAME REPEATEDLY TO GET HER TO TURN OVER TO THIS SIDE AND SHE HAD A SMALL SMILE ON HER FACE AS SHE SHOOK HER HEAD WHILE LOOKING IN THIS DIRECTION
shook her head like "you pathetic fool do you like me that much" (YES TAKE ME MY QUEEN) 
chaeng also accepted a fan letter and i'm like super regretful that i didn't write although i have been wanting to for a while but it's okay next time
their car plate number: 1828 1833
so anyway guys this is the day i made eye contact with sana and chaeng i have nothing else i need in life anymore amen i would like to thank not only jesus but also every god out there in this universe thank you bless y'all

anyway stayed until around 1 and really had to go for NANTA (reluctantly) so i went to the convenience store to buy some food before finally leaving 
saw a mob in front coming closer to me and someone within the mob said it’s nayeon
AND IT'S NAMO
thought they were going to their van to go for lunch too so i stepped on the steps of the restaurant/convenience store for the elevated view 
BUT THEY CAME UP THE STEPS AND WENT INTO THE RESTAURANT (they were like RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME)
someone stepped on momo’s shoes and she had to stop to wear them back
she just laughed her trademark silly laugh while wearing her shoes and catch up with nayeon (her eyes are damn big)
nayeon backtracked to help/pull momo forward and before they entered the restaurant nayeon waved in my direction
after they entered the restaurant everyone crowded outside to peek in and i really feel v sad for them cos they are like some specimens/animals who are being paraded around where their every move is being scrutinized and watched
anyway the fans scolded the person for stepping on momo and causing her to lose her shoes it was damn intense like they were shouting and all lol

22 July 2018
the fansign is at starfield hanam which is like super far from civilization ded 
took about 1.5h to reach the mall and reached around 1150 even tho fansign starts at 3 lol
immediately headed for second floor for the elevated view and it was quite okay cos not many people were there yet 
and once again i realized that in korea, as long as you are willing to spend time, you will be able to see them (but then fangirling is really damn tiring like never eat proper meals need to stand long hours even worst than KOI lol) 
anyway realized why they do public fansigns cos it helps to promote them to the general public 
like all those older gen who are out shopping will see the stage and be like "oh twice is having a fansign here today" so even if they dk about the group they will know after that 

anyway sat down to chope this side view spot until about 1 then i cannot take it alr so i went to walk around and buy a selfie stick for my phone so i can record later when twice came 
went back around 230ish to look for another better spot and managed to find a spot closer to the center 
just nice the person in front left so i was first row!! 
so technically i stood from around 1 to 5 for twice help sia

the fansign was supposed to start at 3 but they came late like around 315? 320? 
first time seeing a fan sign happen in my life and it's quite interesting (hopefully more to come)
seating arrangement: sana nayeon jihyo momo dahyun jeong chaeng mina tzu
sana has the most toys and wow that look that she gives the fans as they talk how do y’all not melt (she looks at fans with honey dripping out of her eyes)
her box is the most filled with toys and a lot of them got her shiba inus cos she looks like one and it's super cute la: https://twitter.com/candyfrappe_/status/1020964692506787840
looked towards my direction and waved
nayeon is one of the fan service queens always waving and posing for cameras when she’s free
jihyo really looks good with the tan and pretty with the bouquet of flowers
voice is really the loudest among them haha
because i'm on the second floor, the sound doesn't really travel up well so cannot really hear the rest properly but when jihyo speaks it's like BOOM suddenly can hear lolol 
momo also one of the fan service queens making sure to wave to every floor
dahyun also fan service queen obviously
damn extra at the end she asks if the fans are hot and waved her fan at them and also did a extra dance lolol
jeong is pretty but doesn’t really interact w the upper floors 
chaeng’s ARMS AND SHOULDERS EXCUSE ME LIKE I CAN SEE THAT DEFINED ARMS FROM THE SECOND FLOOR HOW EVEN PLS TEACH ME YOUR WAYS SENPAI
she really loves strawberries like someone gave her a strawberry stress ball and she held it and posed with it kekeke (update: the fan said that she dotted the strawberry with her marker to give it its dots SO CUTE LEH)
and there's also this toy a fan gave her it was on her lap the whole fan sign and when she just got it she played peekaboo with it 
before the start of the fansign she waved at her fansite for a good 5s
mina’s off shoulder red dress = collarbones gala = elegance 101 (thank god for styling that accentuates my 2 baes' best features that day sia) 
tzu walked in first and from the back really v pretty and elegant
when she walked in first i was like "wah got dark long hair" so i thought it's chaeng but then too tall to be chaeng (rip sorz) and when she turned around i was just O_O wow okay she's growing on me 
saw jihyo’s parents! they were obviously excited to see each other but then i'm once again sad because they have to go to their schedules/events to see each other... (reminded me of the time when jihyo and jeong were on vapp and she was like "yeah my sisters live a better life than us" and i'm just so sad for them boohoo like i love them so much and i want the best for them you know???) 
anyway they performed DTNA and i wasn't really paying attention cos too busy filming but the fan chants super loud sg really cannot compare lol (finally experienced konces and hope to have a real konce concert experience next time!!!) 
before they left mochaeng was being cute keke THEY JUST DESERVE THE BEST, ALL OF THEM. 

anyway there was this chaeng sg stan beside me and she was like zooming in on chaeng and took a 30min video focused on chaeng like wow dedication
also saw her posting on insta zooming on chaeng and be like “hi baby” and had michaeng as her wallpaper ITSSA MY FRIEND
and she came with the bf i think and she was like "eh help me move my fringe to the back pls" and the bf held those portal fan for her the whole time while she was recording i'm just FIND ME SOMEONE LIKE THAT TOO PLS.
sadness unnie looks skinnier dk is it cos skinnier irl or lost weight because of the job lol rip tough job

my last chance to see them will be on aug 1st where they are going for korean music wave but i can't cos i have a goddamn test on aug 2nd -_- so near yet so far has never felt more apt. but ofc really very happy to be able to see them twice at no cost but I WANT MOAR. let's really go on for a long long time!!!!!!1111!!!!1

TWICELAND 2 FANTASY ZONE

lol reading my last year's post before coming to write this and i realized i was way more excited for last year's con than this year's i think i have aged and am too old to be doing all this anymore (or maybe i'm just too jaded/tired with life to be that excited haha) 

alright so this year they start off with a fantasy world concept where they come out like goddesses sitting on dangling swings 

super lucky that chaeng and mina are on my side of the stage hehe 

super unflattering photo of chaeng tho ded hahaha
saw it on twitter during their korea con so was not surprised 
tbh don't really remember the setlist cos too busy running around chasing them around the stage + trying to record while keeping an eye out for the guards 
but really v worth it cos really get to see them up close, closer than the seating at star last year 
next time i will go for seating probably, not because it's tiring (well it is but it's not the reason why), but because i think it would be good to sit on top and get a bird's eye view of everything that's happening too (and also really enjoy the concert and watch them perform and dance rather than run around in the mosh ded) 
also mina and chaeng were always on the other side so didn't really get to see them a lot sigh
saw momo and jihyo the most, then sana, dahyun, nayeon and jeongyeon, then tzuyu, mina and chaeng 
also compared to last year, i must say the girls are more relaxed and professional? like the stages feel more coherent now, as expected they improve with experience 
and i think i enjoy watching them more now because 1. since they themselves are more comfortable and natural 2. i think i know them and their dynamics better to better appreciate them now
personal stage faves were: knock knock (the remix is good) and what is love acoustic (love the adlibs and harmonization)
oh and also the vcrs are so cute it's like a small cut of a reality/variety keke

alright moving on to the members:
nayeon: her smile is really the best altho her rbf also v strong lol
1. when chaeng pointed out a fan board or smth to nayeon and they both laughed and nayeon posed for the fan 
2. their talk after their subunit she was like flirting with jeong and all being like "i'm happy to be doing the subunit stage with jeongyeon. you know my heart right?" and linking arms with jeong and leaning on her and shit 
but jeong is just like "no idk show me your heart. (in english) show me, nayeon." 
aiyo get married la lol 
during the my ear candy stage nayeon pulled jeong's shirt to pull her to her and it was just intense AND GAY (thank u for promoting the gay agenda im nayeon) 
jeongyeon: okay first things first she's quite pretty jyp let her leave her hair out if she wants to goddamnit you don't need to have short hair to be a girl crush
also she has ton loads of fan boys lor what girl crush lol 
but erm need to improve on singing ded like the rest all sound pretty similar to CD but she's the only one that sounded different... 
momo: MOST EYE-CATCHING MEMBER OF THE NIGHT LA
like when they dance tgt you just can't help but look at her cos she's so powerful!! like during beyonce's end of time stage her intense dancing + the costume that accentuate her dance moves are just >:O TAKE MY HEART HIRAI MOMO 
then she is one of the members who really does a lot of fan service like she made sure she looked and waved in all directions, doing the extra but small stuff that as a fan i really appreciated it 
and during their individual intro her "hello i'm momo" is so cute but i didn't record it down GODDAMNIT 
10/10 can date if you can accept the fact that you will always be 3rd in her heart after food and dance haha 
sana: cutie-sexy is really the most accurate description of sana like she's so cute when she smiles but also can be sexy if she wants to 
like her smile is so endearing and her eyes are just 꿀 떨어진다 like she stares at the fans with so much love in her eyes WHAT DO U WANT FROM ME I CAN GIVE YOU ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING 
jihyo: brightest smile in the whole wide world no kidding 
at the start she was focusing on singing and she kept frowning so i was like "oh no is it bad mood today" but as the con progressed she smiled more and her smile is just so precious 니가 웃으면 나도 좋아
mina: hair up in a ponytail today but looking like royalty and elegance as always 
like how can someone be so elegant, gentle and graceful?!?!??!?!?! is it humanely possible? 
is mina even human? she's really pretty and just perfect that i'm like legit jealous of her future husband he must have saved like 10000 countries in his past life to get her okay!!!1!!!11111
but can understand why people think of her as the dead fish since she's quiet and pretty expressionless at times so people may think of her as rude, aloof or just dgaf BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE
dahyun: ahh the mood maker as always 
also another fan service queen, making sure to like shoot hearts, winks, everything everywhere 
does a good job at raving the crowd like making us scream continuously 
and also copied the translator this time lol 
momo and her stayed behind at the end doing some weird poses together before momo carried her off stage and she was like kicking and struggling jokingly haha cuties 
chaeng: the orange hair kinda faded into a blondish color so it's slightly better but the choppy bangs hmmm... 
her fan service is quite minimal like she doesn't wave and shoot hearts like the other members but i spotted her pointing at fans to acknowledge them or like shooting finger hearts some times 
but her arms are really super toned wtf like during one of the talks the camera/screen was on her and WTF I COMBUSTED (when will i have those toned arms gg) 
말투는 은근히 귀여워 during the talks there are some parts where her voice will be damn cute and i'm like jumping on my spot (legit send help pls thanks) 
but she's so underrated and have so little fans sigh i hope she doesn't feel discouraged!! continue to work hard! 
tzuyu: she's so much more confident now, speaking in chinese more but still preferring to leave the talking to the others 
pretty ofc and that adlib during what is love acoustic was really v good (really improved a lot from sixteen)
