The 9th Anniversary

It is already been nine years since your debut back in 2006. Nine years. 3,285 days. 4,733,542 minutes. 284,012,568 seconds. That's a lot. I don't even know what what to write to celebrate your 9th anniversary. Year after year, I always thank you for your good music, great performance, and most of all, for being strong. For sticking together through thick and thin. Through good and bad. I hope you, all five of you keep growing into a better group and even better friends and people. I hope you keep sharing the same passion in making music. I hope you keep moving forward, but sometimes looking back to see there a lot of people behind you who support you, adore you, and love you. 

Nine years, you are already a big senior in the entertainment industry where people look up to you, respect you and seeking strength from you. Be it from your music, your performances, your personalities or simply from your existences. Embrace those people and share to them your wisdom, but stay humble. I believe that VIPs can count on your stubbornness for not giving up, but let me say this to you; Please don't give up on your music, your passion, and most of all, your friendship. Your brotherhood. 

Thank you for being present. Thank you for being strong. Thank you for not giving up.
Thank you for being BIGBANG. And, congratulations! May you will always be on cloud 9.

Happy Birthday, My Awesome Kiddo

It is amazing how five years ago I didn't even know of your existence and now, after years of investing so much into the feeling, you have become one of those people whose well-being makes me curious. What are you up to? Are you okay? Are you happy? Are you healthy? Do you socialize well? All sort of questions that seems to be normal to be asked to my friends (or boyfriend), someone whom I know and, most definitely, know me.

If I hadn't watched that video where you screamed at the top of your lung 'MY BALL! MY BALL!' while putting that silly smile of yours, I wouldn't had noticed you distinctly. if I hadn't, then, watched that show where you gained the endearment name dumber, I wouldn't have invested that much of affection towards you. And if, as much as painful it still is, you hadn't had that car accident back in 2011, I wouldn't have invested even more affection towards you. And most of all, connection.

So, here I am, celebrating another birthday of yours. I don't know why I even write this post dedicated to you when I know you won't even read this. Whether you are reading or not, I want you to know that lately I may haven't been invested that much time, energy, and money for you as much I did in the past, but I think I always have that soft spot in my heart for you. I am not going to say 'I will always love you forever' because 'forever' is a very long time, but for now, I still have that soft spot for you (and the rest of the band, of course). And maybe in a year or two or three, I won't even remember your birthday anymore, but for now, I want to do this for you.

Happy birthday, my sweet, funny, silly, happy kiddo. May the year ahead will treat you awesomely. Keep dreaming and chasing your dreams for dreams do come true. You are the living proof of it. So, stay dreaming. Keep smiling (or in your word, smell) and be happy, always. You always say that even when you are not happy, you will always smile and everything will feel better and you will be happy again. You have taught me that. I will carry that thought for the rest of my life. Stay healthy, I know I shouldn't be worry about this one thing but I need to say it, know your own body and do not push it too hard. And do not being too hard to yourself. Stop being too self-conscious and thinking low about yourself, you are an amazing singer with amazing voice with amazing personality. You are in the same level as your other four band-mates, the awesome level.

Go mingle, meet with a lot of people, learn from their life stories, hang out and have fun. Go meet someone special and date, you have a lot of affection in you waiting to be given but you are too shy to show it, maybe you will give it to your significant other (if you are already have one right now, good for you!). I really hope you will meet (or already met) someone who is kind and can be a good partner and companion to you. You deserve it. May you will always be loved and treasured by a lot of people.

Last but not least, don't give up on your Korean solo album yet, your fans deserve it and most of all, you deserve it. And I don't think you can handle SNS (joking). Be great. Be amazing. Be awesome. But stay humble. You will be a much greater person than you already are. Happy birthday, my awesome kiddo. XOXO

Like a phoenix, you have risen from the darkest place. You can deal with anything now.

8 Years : To the infinity and beyond

Eight years, we've been listening to good music from you. We've been watching mind-blowing performances. We've been witnessing amazing teamwork between the five of you. We've been inspired to push ourselves beyond our limit to chase our dreams just watching you guys do it. We've been able to become stronger no matter what hardships we've been through, because you've been done so. Eight years and still counting.

We will still expect more good music, amazing performances and awesome teamwork from you because we know you will always be growing and moving forward to the better direction. No matter how many solo works each member had done and will be done, we know you guys are always the strongest when you are together. It's been eight years and it will be to the infinity and beyond. 

Thank you and we love you.

The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team
