Quick concert recap
The concert on Friday was really amazing. One of my best times ever so far in Korea.
It was at a smaller venue, and I still wasn't able to get right up close enough to the stage because I got there about half an hour before opening time and the line went allllll the way up to the roof...., but the crowd was pretty darn close to the performers.
The opening acts were Supreme Team, D.N.G., Beatbox DG and Beanizzimo (spelling?? Don't remember.) and of course, Epik High. And dude, DOK2 is two years younger than me! Dammit, younger kids who are more accomplished than me...
Every time I see these hip hoppers, I get closer each time. And dude, I totally have a big crush on Beatbox DG now. The man is freaking HOT. And actually, there are quite a few attractive hip hop artists in the Korean hip hop/rap scene. Keke. xD One of the guys in Supreme Team is really really cute.
I'm getting more exposed to Asian Hip Hop obviously. The Korean scene is just the beginning. There are Japanese Urban artists that I was just about to get into before my laptop crashed and died.
Is going to these concerts having an adverse effect on me? I don't think so, I just hope this new path might take me somewhere someday.

Having no camera really sucks.
Because since that unfortunate day, there have been many events where I wished I could snap so many awesome shots of art and people and just memories. Ugh.
Well, on the plus side, I am currently eating cereal for the first time in Korea in Madison's room. Ooh, the nostalgia. I love cereal, haven't realized how much of an American necessity it is.
But on the other negative side, I've been trying to mentally prepare myself for when I leave Korea in about two weeks and it makes me start to feel sad about leaving all the friends I've made here, plus just missing the city of Seoul. So recently and probably until the end of my time here, my feelings will go bipolar on me. >.<
From having an awesome time and feeling like the luckiest girl in the world, to feeling anxious and sad about the inevitable. I know deep down that I will definitely be returning to this country soon. Hopefully, soon.
On a totally different note, can someone scream lucky coincidence? Apparently, Epik High will be introducing their new Map the Soul member DOK2 (pronounced doe-kee) next week at a venue ONE BLOCK AWAY FROM MY UNIVERSITY.
HAH. I'm totally going to make the effort to go to this event. Not sure if I'll be able to reserve a space online since the payment method has to be the Korean way. But paying at the door is only two dollars more expensive, and I suppose it's a first come first serve for those who didn't reserve. Hm.
We'll see.
