tl;dr fanaccount @ pearson international, may 18, 2011
the following is me stanning yunho with the burning passion of a thousand suns. it is mostly incoherent drivel.
got to pearson's terminal 3 (arrivals) at around 9:40 in the morning. i met up with thea and alison and maha and waited with a bunch of other fans as every minute passed by EXCRUCIATINGLY slow. we were wondering if yunho would have an express pass; would he come out first, would he come out last, would he ninja his way out of a VIP exit none of us have ever heard of and leave us feeling like failed creepers?
lol it was nerve wracking at the time, but his flight got delayed a while, that's all.
it had to have been past 11:15 when he finally came out. the doors opened and i could hear people screaming so it HAD to be him, and then when he walked out, i was left with my chin on the floor and every single part of me inwardly shrieking that i was seeing the jung yunho, live and in the flesh, right before my eyes.
everyone started to crowd towards the barrier so i followed, and even though i wanted to say something, all the words got stuck in my throat. T_T i had this cheesy thing planned out in japanese (thank you for always smiling for us! we will always support you! take me with you in your luggage! etc!) but when it came time to perform, much like erectile dysfunction, i was left with frustration and nothing to show for the experience. sigh.
he's just as charismatic and alluring as all the fanaccounts say and he's absolutely gorgeous, i could not tear my eyes away for a single second, but he's also different in some ways too.
for one, he is so much smaller than i thought he'd be. i absolutely believe he's as tall as he claims but he has a small frame and he's very, very thin. to me, anyway, i don't know how everyone else feels, but i thought he was far too skinny. cameras don't do him justice!! he has such a sharp jaw and yes, his face is small, but it's perfectly in proportion with the rest of his body. :C
in some photos, it seems like he has uneven or even bad skin sometimes, but that day, he was glowing. he has such nice, smooth skin, just like a baby's bottom. magic bb cream, perhaps. his sunglasses dominated half his face so i guess that could've been a factor but his cheek was seriously smooth. /hides own face in shame
he has long limbs, he walks with a bit of swagger, but surprisingly not as masculine as i would've imagined. i know this sounds absolutely insane but he had a really soft aura around him. i guess if he doesn't smile, he might come off as cold...but i wouldn't know, he seemed so gorgeously squishable my face was like *_* *_* *_* :Q_______ x_x x_X X________X and eventually...OTL.
i don't think he was expecting so many of us to be there because when he walked out, he looked around and seemed kind of confused. but then he smiled at us and it was like the damn sun came out again and all any of us could do was gravitate towards him.
he met up with a guide (?) and shook hands, spoke in the cutest english everrrrr and started walking. i have a shitty fancam of up to this part.
cr: me
everyone was saying "oppa saranghae!" and "canada loves you!" and i wanted so badly to ask him for a concert in toronto one day but all i managed was "......!!" and then somehow i got jostled RIGHT UP FRONT AND NEXT TO HIM so THEN i managed a very articulate "..............!!!!!!!!!!!!" and stared at him like o_o and then went "....!!!!" some more. T_______T ...;~;
just in case he stopped to sign stuff, i had my kyhd photobook with me, but since he wasn't stopping, i kind of wanted to ditch it so i could keep my hands steady lol. T_T this is what happened when i was next to him:
cr: me
i know, it's literally only 2 seconds long LOLOL. you can hear someone say "so handsome" in the fancam and i couldn't agree more. *_____* the thing's unsteady because i was shaking so hard and my finger spazzed and then this picture:
cr: me. I WAS SO CLOSE TO HIM O M F G nearly shat myself in terror/ecstasy
i ended up taking wholly by accident, but after that, i just couldn't do it. i was so scared of offending him or making him feel super uncomfortable, because honestly, i wouldn't want a camera shoved up in my face either, especially after a 14 hour flight, so i just kept to myself and walked beside him instead. it was such a surreal experience, every one step he took i had to scurry with 1.5 steps of my own since his legs go on forever. i was close enough that i could smell his cologne? perfume?? because all i could think about was how GOOD he smelled.
just like candy. I'M SERIOUS! if you've ever gone by a candy factory before, you know that sweetness that just lingers in the air? he smelled like that. i think his coordi might've spritzed him with perfume? or maybe he just rolls around in vats of candy in his free time?!!? so many questions, so much for my imagination to work with...
after a stretch of hallway we turned a corner to go to the parking lot. when we were walking out the door, someone handed him a letter or a present, i didn't see, but i know he accepted it. wakjfasdfwg cue more melting!!!!
i heard one girl ask him for his autograph and he declined in the softest voice. he said something in korean but he was so sweet about it that i couldn't help but think how he's got to be the nicest idol. T_T
this picture is from her facebook from when he turned to her to say hi and apologize for not being able to sign anything:
cr: alyiana chu. the dude walking in front of him is the guide!
he seemed really happy. maybe that's just the persona he puts forth and if it is, i really appreciate how hard he works to make us smile because you could feel so much happiness in the air. we were ecstatic to see him since toronto has never existed on the sm world map and he was so kind to all of us, constantly saying hi and thank you and bowing a little and waving. i'm sure it must've been uncomfortable to have a gaggle of fangirls following him but he was such a good sport about it.
after we got into the parking lot area where they buy tickets, yunho got cornered next to the ticket machine that the guide was using. he turned in an awkward circle because he was trapped but rather than turning away, he actually turned to us and posed for the camera a little, smiling and waving and saying thank you again.
and then his manager came and told us not to take pictures, and then yunho sort of covered his mouth and said "don't take pictures please~!" cutest accent, cutest voice. i think we all melted. i certainly did.
i think he was trying to hide his 5 o'clock shadow (or whatever o'clock for him by then) but who knows why? facial hair might not be a korean idol staple but he can work just about anything. /BIAS ~_~
there was a lag in conversation and i wanted to say something then...but i was about as coherent and lively as a withered potato come to life.
cr: IF THIS IS YOURS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO I CAN CREDIT YOU!!
cr: me
cr: me. that's his manager, significantly shorter than yunho and waving at us to shoo us off lolol
since we were really crowding around him, his manager came to disperse us a bit. i think the crowd was always pretty good about giving him the space he needed.
the guide finally got the parking ticket and then headed somewhere, but the elevators were in a different direction so yunho had to pass by all of us again. he eventually went into the elevator and i was right at the front AGAIN (i thought more people would struggle to be in the front row but no one ever tried to get past me...ever ._. i wasn't even trying to get close ._.). and then his baggage lady came and ran me over with his luggage. -_- only a little, she owned me in the back of the knee with a suitcase so i almost sat on her and i would've lol'd if my ass had ended up breaking another ipad of his or something but it was all good, i just squeezed aside so she could get in.
this was the last chance i would get to talk to him but everything was still stuck in my throat. T____T i would've settled for even saying "HI" in the end but i couldn't. even monosyllabic words were too much. T_T that's probably my only regret.
before the doors closed, he waved bye to us and smiled again so we all cheered BYEEE~ at him (i waved like an idiot), and when the doors closed, we all screamed because it was just so...surreal.
and then the doors opened again so that was pretty funny and awkward turtle. he stared at us and his guide was like "..." and we were like "..." so after another round of BYEEE~ and them leaving for real, we screamed again and wibbled to our hearts' content.
cr: mahalkitax. this is a good fancam of how things went down.
cr: mahalkitax. this is of the end, you can see his luggage lady run into me at ~0:52. his coordi+manager+luggage people all hung back when he first walked out, probably to avoid the onslaught of fangirls and cameras. they're probably used to this LOLOLOL
thea came over and gave me a hug when it was over because i was about to vomit love and affection down the front of my shirt and fall over face first in my own mess. (thea, thank you for holding me up orz) OMG IT WAS INTENSE. i didn't think i'd react this way to anyone, much less a celebrity, but i guess it's different when you're finally in the presence of someone you've been following and adoring for years and years. :') i hope i didn't freak him out any.
and omg...after pictures started coming out on the web, i just died. it's embarrassing because i HAD been planning on doing my makeup that day and got lazy, and i was so *___* after i saw him that i was herping my derp like i never herp derped before, so just algpowASIDFJ2308*S^Fg ignore my face please. T_T i didn't think they wouldn't blur me out like all the korean fans do DDDD:
cr: yj_sw. so. close. could've touched, wouldn't dare.
i'm not even going to pretend that this isn't my cellphone wallpaper right now...OTL OTL OTL
and i know, i sound like a right lunatic but i wouldn't even know how to tone down this excitement lolol T_T i guess this is the result of not being able to make a peep around yunho the whole time D:
anyway. this was one of the most exciting days in the 20 years that i've been alive. *____* hopefully, i'll be able to see him again, and next time, i hope it's in concert so i can properly scream for him and cheer him (and changmin) on. maybe then, i'll be able to tell him what i wanted to say. :)
