Welcome to the world of political intrigue, strategy and subterfuge, where nothing is as what it seems, and in order to locate our brightest star, we had to weave our way through convoluted theories and pit our minds and endurance against those who are against us …
Target: Jang Keun Suk

The “enemy” : the organizers
The Story
It all started on Sat 4 June around noon when we were waiting for JKS to depart JW Marriott for his rehearsal. We heard that some fans had planned to chase Sukkie and had booked vans. Another eel Apple provided us with a van driver’s contact. He charged a cheaper rate of RM 800 but he had no star-chasing experience nor any contacts, compared to RM 2,400 for another driver who had the contacts, the experience and the news. The inexperienced van driver told me that there were at least 7 exits out of KLCC and he wouldn’t know which exit JKS would use, so we thought there was no point in booking his van.
Then with the chaos that ensued when JKS departed JW Marriott and in the rush of the fan-sign event and Cri Show that day, we didn’t talk about chasing JKS. After the Cri Show ended, we followed the crowd out and down an escalator into a path that I didn’t recognize, so Carol asked a security guard for directions and we had to go up the escalator again to go out through another way. While walking, we were chatting and soon we reached the main entrance and porch where several vehicles were parked. I cannot recall who, but one of us suddenly said, “Aren’t those the fan vans that are chasing JKS?”
We took another look and indeed saw several white vans and some fans getting into the vans parked on the other side of the porch. On the side of the porch near us was another white van, but with security personnel milling around it. Was this JKS’ van? Upon further thinking and discussion, we concluded that it wasn’t JKS’ van but it was his security personnel’s van, so wherever JKS would go later, this van was bound to follow! Also, we saw JKS’ manager getting into this van too!
Our excitement mounted. Carol had parked her car in the open-air carpark beside KLCC (perhaps 100 metres from the porch). We decided to get into her car and had to detour a big round back to KLCC porch to check whether the vans would still be there. Luck was with us, and the vans were still there! We stopped behind the security van with another vehicle between us, but after a while, that vehicle drove off and we had to pull up directly behind the security van. We were anxious whether the KLCC security would chase us away, so all the while, we concocted various excuses for stopping there i.e. we were waiting for a friend to join us (someone pointed out there were already 6 of us squeezed in the car). Then I thought, why not just say we were waiting for a friend to pass us something?
Several more minutes passed slowly as we watched what happened around us – people moving around etc. Suddenly, the van ahead of us moved out and all the fans’ vans followed. So did we! We were all quite flustered actually, and there was a babble of voices in the car as everyone talked about which van to follow and where the vans were and which direction to move in – a wonder that Carol could stand it! The vans, especially JKS’ security van, drove at a breakneck speed and at one point, we lost sight of the leading van and most of the vans, but after a while, we spotted a fans’ van lagging behind and followed. Luckily, we managed to catch up with the long line of vans, and Carol was driving faster too.
Tailing JKS’ van
When we got to a traffic junction right-turn, Carol was so fast that she overtook the security van at the right-turn and after turning right, we were still ahead of the security van, so Carol slowed down and allowed them to overtake us. Soon we reached the seafood restaurant Imbi Palace (we realised that JKS has a penchant for seafood) where all the vans had stopped at. We dropped the others off first, and Carol and I went to park the car at the carpark a distance away, then came back. By then, JKS’ manager and colleagues had gone into the restaurant but JKS had not appeared yet. We soon realised why. There was a wedding dinner going on at the ground floor of the restaurant! There were many, many guests in the restaurant, and some of them were starting to leave. JKS could not possibly appear when there were so many people around, so we guessed he might be waiting in his car somewhere.
Outside the restaurant entrance, we waited, and waited, and waited. We saw JKS’ staff going into the restaurant with a few bottles of wine, but there was no sign of JKS. The wedding dinner guests were still leaving the restaurant in groups. At nearly 11.15 pm and more than half an hour of waiting, we guessed that JKS could be inside the restaurant already as there was a back door to the restaurant. Either that, or JKS could have been in the first car to reach the restaurant and he had gone up already. The other fans had already gone to the eating house across the road to get some refreshments and we did the same too.
At about 11.30 pm, I cannot remember what caused the commotion, but all of us thought that JKS was getting ready to leave soon, so all of us fans and various van drivers dashed across the road. Us fans stationed ourselves outside the entrance again, and JKS’ van pulled up straight to the entrance. We thought he’d be coming down soon, so we waited, waited and waited…. until we were all so tired. A couple of eels sat on the doorsteps; some of us including me leaned against JKS’ van. Gingercake even joked that could she get into the front seat next to the driver and wait there for JKS, then the van could also take her along directly to where JKS was going. It was a very tiring wait; it had been a long day for us with the overnight coach from Singapore, arriving in KL at 5 am, the move and check-in at JW Marriott, the long noon wait at JW Marriott, the fan-sign and a long time of standing on our feet, another long 2 hours of standing at Cri Show waving our lightstick etc and now more waiting and standing outside the restaurant – the eels outside the restaurant were really a wilting bunch of eels. In the meantime, Carol had driven her car from the carpark and re-parked it at a spot outside the restaurant that would make it easier for us to tail JKS. Still, we waited.
Waiting outside Imbi Palace – I’m the one nearest the van in red
Oh ya, 2 amusing incidents during the waiting. Remember the wedding dinner? The bride was in her car (the groom beside her), waiting to see JKS too! Haha! Also, there was a mother who had climbed up onto a parapet ledge with her camera wanting to get a good view, and her little girl carried by the father was crying for her mother to carry her, but the mother said, “Wait! There’s a Korean star who acted in YAB. I must get a video of him. This is the first time in my life I’m doing such a crazy thing. Wait until I finish video-ing him!”
JKS came out at around 11.45 pm, his eyes looking a bit red (perhaps from the drinking?). He smiled and waved at us, and got into his car. We started running for Carol’s car, got into it and soon we were chasing JKS’ car. We followed him all the way to Zouk. It was nearly 1 am, and Carol had to go home, so she dropped us off at Zouk. We were in time to see JKS’ staff (I don’t recall seeing JKS himself) enter Zouk via the back entrance, an entrance that was off-limits to normal guests. Then we went to the front entrance to take a look and saw that there was a long line of people queueing to enter Zouk. Zouk was very packed. We were thinking whether to go in.
Carol called me at that point to say that she was further up the road; she had stopped there because she saw some fans’ vans that had stopped there too. The fans were not going into Zouk because it was too crowded, so they had decided to wait outside. The rest were ok with either entering Zouk or quitting our chase. I was very tired and I didn’t fancy going into a super crowded place with possibly very little chance of seeing JKS, so I opted to go back to the hotel. Later, on Sunday, we heard from a Thai fan whose friend had gone into Zouk, that the place was very crowded and smoky, but the friend managed to see JKS for a few minutes on the second floor. Glad that I didn’t go in though, I cannot even take cigarette smoke for 30 seconds.
Back at the hotel, I worked on my fan-sign fan account until nearly 2.30 am. Marriott had free internet for our room package, the video upload speed was superbly fast at under a minute for a 1-minute video but its download speed was very slow, so I had to wait ages for a page to load and get the information I needed. I could have finished my work earlier except that my netbook was hanging on me in the last hour. I couldn’t even open my eyes and it was a relief to crawl into bed.
On Sunday 5 June, we had a leisurely lunch, then went for a short walk at Chinatown and then to Berjaya Times Square Mall to look at that star merchandise shop on level 5. Walking into that shop is like walking into a treasure trove. The merchandise there were all non-official, but it did not stop us from going ooh, aah and almost buying up everything we could lay our hands on. I nearly busted my budget on his merchandise, haha!
We walked out of the shop and bumped into Ferlyn, Ning and their group of friends. They were there for the merchandise shop too. They also told us that JKS was having his press conference at the hotel from 3 pm to 5 pm. That immediately changed all our plans – we decided to go back to Marriott and chase JKS again! But before that, we decided to go for tea first (in case we wouldn’t have time later to have dinner).
[Ok, here I have some memory loss, so there will be some slight inaccuracies as I’m glossing over the account.] Once at the hotel, we went our separate ways – crazyoverJKS to level 3 to check out JKS’ press conference venue, Carol was making some enquiries with various people, I went up to the hotel room to use the toilet. I think we must have waited for some time at the hotel. CrazyoverJKS came down to tell us that the press conference was over and she could walk freely in and out of the venue. Later, we heard that JKS was going to this restaurant called “Sakura” for dinner, and we decided to go there ahead of him.
Sakura restaurant
We reached Sakura; Carol and I went in. Carol went to the reservation counter and started to make some discreet enquiries about whether anyone made any booking. The waitress asked us what time. Carol said she didn’t know the time, but it would be around in the evening. Waitress asked for name the reservation was under; we couldn’t provide. I was extremely nervous, because well…. Quite awkward, isn’t it? We couldn’t say we were fans; we couldn’t give any concrete information or reason why we were enquiring about other people’s reservation and I could feel the waitress thinking that we are very strange. Another lady (maybe supervisor) came over to assist (since there was hardly anyone in the restaurant at 5.30 pm). I noticed a plump, round-faced Chinese man standing further in. He was wearing a long-sleeved white shirt and looked like the restaurant staff or manager. When he heard us enquiring about the evening’s reservation, he had a rather furious look on his face, picked up a book from the table, turned and left. I was quite worried that he’d inform JKS’ managers and then the dinner would be cancelled.
Finally, we did get the information we wanted. There was a group reservation for 25 persons at 6.30 pm. This matched the information from our source – it had to be JKS and his team. Also, another 2 groups of fans had already arrived at the restaurant, which further confirmed the news.
We made a reservation at 6 pm, and went to much length to pick a table that we thought was close to the entrance of the VIP private room and where we thought JKS must pass by in order to reach the room. At 6 pm, we decided to go in and order our drinks first, and wait for JKS to arrive. Then later, we ordered our food – the rest had the restaurant’s signature nasi lemak (the dish had chicken and was uniquely drenched in curry while I had ee-fu noodles). The menu looked interesting and there were some desserts we wanted to try later. While waiting, we were also observing the table of fans near one of the restaurant’s entrances (the restaurant had 2 main glass entrances). The rest in my team saw JKS’ security personnel sitting with this table of fans. My back was to the entrance and I couldn’t see them unless I turned around, but I didn’t in case it was obvious I was looking at them. It was obvious that this group of fans gained their information from the security. We waited and waited and waited. A very long wait. A few times during the wait, Carol sms or called her contact to ensure that the news was still correct and JKS was indeed coming.
Our drinks
Then, all the JKS security left. We were anxious and wondered if there was a change in plans. However, after that, we saw several people in JKS’ team coming to the restaurant – the photographer, the Korean interpretor and RL organisers. One short-haired, plump lady (not sure who, but could be RL organising team) came over to tell us that JKS was coming to the restaurant and asked us not to create any commotion when he arrived. We agreed, and with this confirmation, we happily finished the rest of our dinner.
Another group of fans had come in and took the table nearest the main entrance and we realised, nearest to the other door to the VIP room, so JKS would come in through the entrance and go to that nearest door instead of bypassing us to reach this door near us. A bit disappointed that we chose the wrong table, but we comforted ourselves that we could at least see him.
Pardon me for repeating this – it was a long, long wait. The waiters had already started serving food to the VIP room but JKS wasn’t there yet. All sorts of thoughts surfaced in our minds. How could they start the feast without JKS? Unless JKS wanted to come at a later time, have his dinner hastily and then leave directly for the airport? Or was he already in the room via some back entrance we didn’t notice, like Sat night? But the back entrance was a narrow and dirty one into the kitchen; JKS couldn’t have used that, and the front entrances were in our clear view. During our long wait, we gave a new meaning to “momosuk”. The Chinese Hokkien dialect meaning of “mo” is to dilly dally and take one’s sweet time, and “momosuk” means that JKS was very good at taking his time and being late; we even joked that he must be taking his time to bathe and slower than a girl in putting on make-up and making himself look pretty!
It was nearly 8 pm – where was JKS? Carol received a call from her contact to say that JKS was not coming to the restaurant – it was merely a ploy to divert his fans there. We immediately settled the bill and went back to the hotel, leaving the other 2 tables of fans there. On the way back, we discussed the latest news. Maybe JKS wanted to shop at Starhill Gallery that was connected to Marriott on the second level, or maybe he went swimming at the hotel pool since the pool was closed at 7 pm, that’s why he wanted to divert us. We were full of regrets that we couldn’t be at the room keeping an eye on the pool at the same time; someone even suggested that next time, we should set up a surveillance camera in the hotel room to record 24 hours even while we were out so that we wouldn’t miss JKS at the pool!
A pic of the pool from our Marriott hotel room
A zoom-in pic from our hotel room – ….. lucky for JKS that we didn’t manage to get any pic or video of him at the pool!
But I was fuming mad… at the RL lady who came to feed us false information that JKS was coming to the restaurant so that we would stay at the restaurant. But what is the point of doing that when there were scores of fans at Marriott lobby? The only positive thing out of our long wait was, we managed to have a nice dinner instead of like Sat night when we were tired and standing during the wait.
I understand that the RL lady was doing her job and possibly feeling very satisfied that she had completed her mission of misleading us. On hindsight, who are we to the lady and RL organisers? Not even friends, and no relationship at all! Why would she be so kind as to tell us that JKS would be coming here? We only had ourselves to blame for being so gullible. Lesson learnt – don’t ever believe what your enemy tells you. I have to applaud her for her masterful acting performance – JKS is not the only wonderful actor around; the staff around him have picked up excellent acting skills too, and practised them on us.
To that RL lady (I hope you read this), I am not angry with JKS’ change in plans, I am not angry with him or Korean/RL organisers diverting us, I am angry with your deceit and your lie. You could have left us alone at the restaurant, and we would have kept on believing our source that JKS would come to the restaurant. Even if you did not come to tell us this lie, we would still continue to stay at the restaurant. Your lie is unnecessary. To you, we are nothing, and perhaps more like irritating pests you have to get rid of, but I will remember you forever, as a person full of deceit and I will never ever trust a single word you (or the organising staff) say again. This may sound a bit serious, but I cannot accept deceit and lies. I think I am a rather honest, straight-forward person. Even when friends suggest me to tell JKS I drew that portrait I asked him to sign during the autograph, I cannot. It’s not drawn by me, and I cannot say it is. I am someone who finds it very difficult to tell a lie, so I despise people who are full of deceit and not what they appear to be on the surface.
The portrait I got an artist to draw and JKS signed on it
We made it back to the hotel; JKS had not left yet. There were some fans at the hotel lobby but not many. His van was not parked at the hotel entrance, so Carol drove through 5 basement levels of the carpark to try our luck and we got so excited when we saw his van parked in a corner! Carol was so excited that she stopped her car directly in front of JKS’ van, thinking to stop him from driving out and he’ll come over to talk to us. We managed to persuade Carol to park somewhere else and below is her 2nd choice of parking … LOL. Finally, we decided to park in the lot directly opposite JKS’ van. We did not want to bother him but just take a video of him departing from Marriott. So we stayed there until we saw him. We were the only group of fans at B5 carpark at the Marriott, and this is how we got that exclusive video. We didn’t follow JKS to the airport though; the airport was too far away for Carol and us, and we decided to call it a night. This ends our star-chase.
JKS came out from the exit behind the van
Back in the hotel room before our bed-time, crazyoverJKS was already suffering JKS withdrawal symptoms. She asked rhetorically, “Where is our star?” and answered it herself, “Our star is in the sky” referring to JKS being on the plane. And the next morning when she woke up, her first thought was, “JKS is back in Korea! I wonder what he’s doing?” … …
Our star was JKS but the undoubted heroine of the day (and nights) was Carol. Without her being so willing to drive us around, without her unique charm and characteristic to be able to talk to many, many people and gain all sorts of useful information, we would never ever have this memorable star-chasing experience. And she helped us save at least RM 1,600 on booking van to chase JKS. Thank you, Carol!

aphrael, thanks for your super work!!!!!
Reading through your detailed account, I could picture your excitement and difficulty with your papparazi team to chase JKS 🙂 These memories above look like a movie!
I look forward to continuing this papparazi team’s activities as long as JKS’ cri show will continue, and someday I want to join the member of your team ^^
Wahahahaa!!! Aphrael, i can’t stop laughing while reading this Fan Account of yours!
Oh my goodness….. i am really a crazy eel who is extremely crazyoverJKS! hahaha!
Talking to myself, asking questions about JKS to myself with self-replied answers somemore! And made so many stupid ideas! Wahahaha! Oh no! I am going CRAZY! 😀
Yup i was the crazy one who suggested putting a video-camera on our room window ledge so that we can film JKS swimming in the pool if he does! hahaha!
And leave the video-cam on for 2days so that we won’t miss out any chance! hahaha!

Let’s hope that JKS get thru this site and see for himself how crazy crazy his eels were especially from here. And the best part of it, he has got the craziest fans and their love from all over the whole world.
It’s very funny. I laugh, too over the crazy acts especially even trying to get a glimpse of him at the swimming pool ! with a video cam!! I, too, have never been so crazy before until I saw JKS in YAB. I would have done anything crazy to get to him or even to watch him from afar…..if I were there……
Thanks for all your compliments….. is my pleasure & hv fun together. Actually I got lots of 1st time experience within the 2 days (4/6/ & 5/6) in my life….. 1st time bought soooo expensive tix to see JKS, 1st time met Ivy’s + her gang (strangers at that point of time) frm Spore which I only know them thru this blog & drove them throughout 2 days , 1st time out frm home for almost more than 24 hrs (luckily my hubby& daughters are undertsanding & w/o complaint), 1st time being a paparazzi & having many rounds of heart attack chasing after the guy drivers moreover at late nite, 1st time danced so “high” somemore in front of JKS (as I got the 1st row seating) & recorded in M’siaCri show Press Conf part2 (guess which is me, hahaha, clue white Tee) , 1st time got “a tyre puncture” means a hole on my pant- only noticed after Cri Show, 1st time cracked my head to search for my shinning star till searching through carparks, 1st time i got in & out JWM hotel & went dun know how many rounds to the auto paying machine, 1st time i got so excited and hv fun after leaving my school which is dun know how many yrs ago, 1st time being a busybody & thicked skin to get info on tailing JKS etc & etc…..wow! is all i can say. All these 1st time things that I have done & experienced is bcoz of JKS. Aphrael, crazyoverJKS, day dreaming, gingercake & Sophie we should have pat our shoulders and say we r ichiban !
A big thank you to you once again…. without you, our first time being a paparazzi will not be so fun and memorable…. Hope that our paparazzi team can continue the chase next year when he go to Malaysia again…..
so happy for you guys to go through this memorable moment… tell hubby how great he is for being so understanding!!! i wonder if my hubby will be like that? he already looks puzzled looking at me staring at JKS pictures too long LOL
fun experience indeed… while reading through, im thinking the best way to get really close to JKS is to produce one of his events… what do you think???? 😀
Aphrael??
Produce his event? i think I’ll get a heart attack, but of a different kind!
Heard that it’s very hard to work with Koreans … I’d rather drool at my star from afar….
my mind is going wild right now, thinking of the possibilities of maybe producing one of his events lol, i wonder how he will feel knowing that its being put together by his very own eels! im sure he will be very happy and will give his best! sigh, but how??
stvcri – I am interested if you are… although I dont live in Asia and dont speak Korean!
I just think eel events are what they do when they organise FM
Aphrael, agreed with you. Not only be prepared to hv heart attack but get ready to receive the scoldings & cursing from eels
stvcri,
are u by any chance an event organiser?
i dont live in asia and dont speak korean either, except for sarangheyo, ottoke and omo lol
i have friends who produces events here in US and in philippines.. i have been thinking of contacting them to bring Sukkie to the philippines since i think that’s cheaper and less complicated than here in the US. plus of course, id want to have a more intimate chance of meeting him lol
ill start exploring and definitely let you guys know, i want to meet you all..
stvcri,
in case u are seriously exploring the idea, just a friendly note of caution: the Koreans are infamous for being very very very difficult to work with….
ur friends or contacts may not appreciate if ur idea (good as it is) brings them more trouble than it is worth….
that’s all i can say… just so that you’re aware…. ^^
The wifey_07: where do you live? i hope sukkie will perform for free, since its for his eels anyway right?
erm, can I just say that all his fan-meetings in Asia are for the purpose of meeting his fans and yet they are not free?
instead FMs come with a pretty high price tag?
…. the only thing one can expect a celebrity to do for free is charity performances …
just exploring options… im thinking most organizers that are doing it are for profit, while if its eels who will put it together just wants to spend time with him, maybe he’ll consider a lower fee because of this..
we never know … maybe one day, when a lot will come together, this will happen!
yikes really? i wonder why koreans have that reputation.. even sukkie? 🙁
stvcri – its a great idea to bring JKS in the phils… 🙂
Love “The WTA XXXX papparazi team” you guys are the BEST!!! Wish I was there with you all 🙂
crazyoverJKS your too cute lol 😛
Aphrael, thanks for writing such a wonderful and insightful fan account! I don’t know how to thank you enough for this and ur determination during the trip! Thanks for all your hard work to keep this blog, really really appreciate it esp it brought many of us eels together. I really really hope JKS can read your blog and know that he has such dedicated fans like yourself 🙂
Reading this account really brought back a lot a lot of happy memories: of having a great nite with JKS in his cri show (really very high!) and of chasing the STAR (crazyoverJKS, your self talk is really farnie but oh so true and reflective of our mood and I do recall ALL of us were very *ahem* excited when we realised that our hotel room had POOL VIEW!!! woo hoo!!!) A lot of my ‘first time’ can almost echo Carol’s list hehehe. Special thanks to Carol, your daughters and hubby must be proud to have such a wonderful mum/wife as you 🙂
WTA XXXX papparazi team, thks for just being you, miss you all le….shall we aim…..Korea? *LOL*
start to save more $$$$$ now to korea
Just dun know why, the KL CRi Show ended on Sun. Today aledi Thursday, a lot of flashback still in my mind. Looking forward to see him again & again, mayb I got to see him 1 to 1 session & seeing him going off silently on SUn nite. Caused miss him a lot… I just wanna to repeat & share my feeling during the 1- 1 session with JKS on stage (also another the 1st time unforgettable experience in my life) as follows:
When I’m up the stage, JKS greeted me 1st and sd “Hi” with a smiling face! I melted with his voice and beautiful + sexylook. I could just replied “Welcome to Msia”. He looked down and started to sign on the poster, but I stopped him, instead asked him to sign on my h/p. He saw my hp is Samsung brand & asked “U bought a Samsung!”…I replied “Yes, I bght this cos of U”. He laughed quite loud & “in a cunning way” I’m totally melt along that moment!*blank* He focused signing on my hp coz the space is limited as compared to poster.
Whatever I wanted to say, nothing came out (luckily never faint). Then I handed over my gift to him & he cont’ w the conversation & asked is it a scrapbook. Wow! Now I hv more time w him. I explained is a stamp (2 rows of M’sia stamp + a row of JKS pic stamp in b/w & framed) I up the frame for him to see & tell him the message – “hope he can be liked the stamps, able to travel (being free) and well known to the whole world too!” – of course the words came out not really as fluent coz my heartbeat was extremely fast
He smiled (that HTK’s smile, oh no!), sd TQ & told me to enjoy his show… ended with a hand shake. I’m sooooo happy, felt like dreaming *^o^* (u know the feeling is exactly like GoMiNam after HTK kissed her. Her head full of fireworks, doubt, unstable) though didn’t get a hug frm him (my ori plan)
I went down to show my hp to crazyoverJKS & day dreaming. I told them my hands seems shaking during they took the photo of my h/p……. 🙂 🙂
**I din’t get very nice pic during the 1-1 session as most of them being covered by the security and/or a lady (believed is RL staff) butts!
wow carol~ then u must bring this hp tgt with you all the time! hehe and u gt to chit chat with him a lil, i believe that if im having 1 to 1 session with him, my mind sure went blank, can only stare at his beautiful face.
hope next time can join you all with the star-chase and see him up close someday~ *dreaming* ^^
Carol, what a great idea to be signed on your Sumsung hp!!
Besides, you did a good job not to fall in a faint!!
Like you I want not to faint in front of him…. Can I behave like that???
Honestly I’m not confident… Till the particular day I have to be tougher.
So I’m practicing to simulate the coming day to talk with him!!!!
Carol70, I think I would have blanked out and my head spinning just by looking at him so up close! 🙂 but good for you! And now you’ve got ur autographed samsung phone to constantly remind you of him! Kudos to the WTA XXXX papparazi team! cheerz!
Thanks Aphrael for the detailed FA!! you all are the best paparazzi!!! really enjoyed reading your FA, makes us feel that we are at the scene too!
Thumbs up for all of you! Someday i would like to join u all in the star-chase mission!
Hi aphrael77 do you know when JKS’ Let me cry album was released in Singapore?
I heard from my sis it is already available in S’pore, either at HMV or Tower Records…
just check with my sis again she said her friend ordered via the store for USD$30.. it is not on the shelves yet.. For me, I ordered by Japan website & VPOST.
I know its already in Singapore and it is already on the shelves but just wanted to know when it came to singapore. Btw thanks.
fun, fun, fun! oh well, now i know i’m not that crazy over jks, i really thought i had too much jks syndrome, but after reading your FA, not even 1/4 of your dedication to him. kudos the the understanding hubbies of carol70 and crazyoverJKS for supporting this addiction. 😛
Thanks for the info….good news so now eels in Spore can purchase his Let Me Cry
album.
Cannot delay any further must get it fast……just missed his wonderful voice.
hi! your fan account is really fun to read.. i’m laughing like crazy infront of my computer, hahaha.. 😀 but i really want to experience the way you had guys.. i salute you for your dedication in this blog and give us your first hand experience being an eel.. keep on going and thank you very much.. and thank you too to other eels here who shared their feelings… love all your comments here it fills my day!! 🙂
The WTA XXXX papparazi team, i really love reading this fan account again and again,..and actually, even if im at work, im reading the account and cnt stop myself imagining your chase with JKS,..lol,..i hope we cn join ur team someday,.. :p
Thanks, glad that u enjoyed reading it 🙂
and yes, the WTA XXXX papparazi team is always recruiting. very simple requirements (or maybe not…..)
– can stand for long hours
– wait for long hours
– with indefatigable spirit, never say die
– follow the scent of JKS even when u are half-asleep * winks *
– being able to run fast is a plus
– good eyesight to spot JKS and/or his car in a mess of people and traffic
– being tall is naturally another plus (to take better pics/videos of course!), or wear heels or platform shoes
– please come equipped with own “spyware” (equipment not provided) i.e. camera, videocam, iphone etc
Aphrael, u mk me laugh to recruit more??? Then mayb another two (2) more important requirements; extra extra $$$ kept in pocket and/or provide own transport hahahaha
Ya lor, have to pay for own transport, but no fear, now we know which driver to contact if we need a van!
lol,..nice requirements,..
Aphrael, now only I noticed that JKS extra put in the “heart shape” on the drawing, just right above his signature & beside yr name ! Heart shape !!!
Yes, I saw the heart shape too ^^
Hi Aphrael! Like everyone else, I also enjoyed reading your exciting fan account very much. It makes me feel as if I was in KL too with you and the papparazi team members. Hope you’re feeling much better today!
U got the photobook!!! By the time we reached the store, all the photobooks had been sold out…. =( Even then, I spent every last cent I had in that shop… Lol… Oops…. =p
Sad to hear abt the restaurant incident. I can’t understand why the RL lady had to do that to you gals too!! I mean, what’s her point??? Geez………..
Zouk was…. Hmmm…. How should I put it…. JKS was totally in the mood to entertain us eels that night and even though he was on the 2nd floor, we could see him super clearly and he didn’t go out of sight at all! Lol… But the crowd… OMG the crowd…… It’s NOTHING like I’d ever ever experienced…. I left abt an hr before him… Was starting to feel really unwell (probably from all the shoving, squeezing, pushing, groping (!) and lack of air)… They definitely don’t have any concept of “maximum capacity”… >.<
Aniwaiz, thanks for the FAs! We didn't chase all the way so you really helped fill in the blanks for us…. ^_^
hi Ning!
the photobook was nothing fantastic – quite poor quality though.
so no loss not having it.
wow… at least u got to see JKS at Zouk!
did u see any of his cute dance? ^^
You’re quite the night cat too huh? =p
Oh babe, did he dance….! But not cute though… SUPER SEXY!!! *droolz*
Aphrael, heard that he was really “high” due to the crowd response last Sat. Did u noticed, the LH section is longer (mayb u can compare w yr other attended Cri Shows). He even teached us how to dance “Shake It Up – pardon me if the name is wrong, coz I’m also in “high” mood, dun really remember whether is the song name is correct” which he never did b4 in Spore & BKK right!
If our WTA XXXX team able to tolerate the “smokes, crowd, shoving, squeezing, pushing, groping, lack of oxygen” as mentioned by Ning + further…. “the standing” again!!! Then can consider to go clubbing with JKS if he is coming next year 🙂
So start practicing now to be a carnivorous
Carol, i am a carnivorous!!!! I am all ready for it now! Hahaha! ^o^
Oh geeee….. i really miss JKS so much!!! Miss his smile, miss his voice, miss his vanilla smell, miss his super High Lounge H singing & dancing! Oh man!!! I miss everything that relates to him!!!!
And no matter how much dose of JKS mecidine i take since Monday, i still can’t seem to recover from it!!! Faint….. hahaha! 😀
Now i really wonder how was he like during his parting at Zouk! Awwww…….
crazyoverJKS, the more vanilla spray u take, the more u will misss him. Why not ask yr hubby to use it instead? He can temporary be JKS “Spore version”…… hahaha
While on his sexy dancing as mentioned by Ning….*imagining* should be something like Black Engine??
Wahahaa!! Carol, you make me laugh so much! 😀
Hmmmm…. but my hubby doesn’t look like JKS at all, how huh?
Totally different look, different height, different style and different smell! Hahaha!
I think i will still prefer to spray it on myself, coz this way it’s like JKS is always around me or rather right beside me! Coz i can smell myself every minute & every second.
But i can’t smell my husband every second mah. hahaa! 😀
Oooooh boy!! Like Black Engine! He look so cute in the beginning of that MV & super cool when he is driving!!!
Aiyooo! I am missing our party-boy so much now! hahaha! (^__^)
You were at Zouk? Me too!! Had a f**kin awesome time there!! I can’t believe I went for clubbing at this age (am a mother of two..LOL). This is all becoz of Suk!! But I will rmbr the nite 4ever!! Love everything abt him, the genuine innocent and wild side of him!!
Aphrael, are u going to shanghai? I would like to go also, but I don’t have anyone to go with me. Can I join u?
