Do you like K-pop? I love K-pop. I’m a huge fan of many groups. The reason why I like K-pop is related to how I want to make my memories.
There are many dramas made based on memories. I want to talk about 응답하라 series, especially 응답하라 1997. In the drama, there’s a character named 시원. She is a high school student who likes a boy group called H.O.T. She goes to concerts, shares pictures in a magazine with her friends and even goes to meet her bias in person. Also, cheers for them with balloons and writes letters to them.
The culture of fandom is different from nowadays but vibe of the formal days is fun and interesting to know so I was very impressed. But the culture of these days is also interesting.
Now K-pop is popular all around the world and by that, many techniques have been developed. People cheer with light sticks instead of balloons, uses SNS or sites only for fans to communicate, apply for signing events to see celebrities in person and talk, or even pay for an application that can talk with a member they want like a one to one chat room.
To think about the stream of fandom culture, it is very odd and amazing that someday the culture I am experiencing right now can be another old time story, and my memories can be remade into another content like drama, spread all over the world.
Being a fangirl for several years, I experienced many things. I once skipped school and went to a concert. I was tired and hungry, but all the hard times of then are kept as good memories with videos I took at that time and the cap of the water bottle he sprinkled. The other time, I went to a musical a day before an exam and screwed it up. But after a while it also became a fun memory I can talk about now, and I am satisfied with it.
Of course I didn’t live my life postponed to my fangirling. It also motivated me to study. One of the members I like was from the U.S.A and he used to speak English on his SNS or radio he hosted. I wanted to understand what he was saying so I started to study English. As a result my grades got better as well as my English skills. Gradually, learning English became my major so, I guess I said everything about this part.
Being a fangirl is a happy experience but there were also some troubles. For example trouble with parents, or spending time and passion. But I think it was because I’m a lazy person. Anyway still I think these hard times are some parts of making memories. Happy memories remain long, but happy memories in hard times remain longer so right now I am living a life making memories for future me to reminisce who I liked and how passionate I was.
I could look back at my fangirl times to write these sentences. It was also a fun time looking back my memories. If you haven’t been a fan of someone, it doesn’t have to be a person but I recommend you to like something passionately since it can be a precious memory when you look back.
