"So Ra ya !!", shouted Sun Mi. "Finally I got BTS fansign tickets !! kyaaaa ... I'm so happy!"
"Aigooo, sun mi. Why are you screaming like that?", I whispered while looking around. Luckily at this time my cafe wasn't too many visitors.
"Look ... look! I didn't got only one ticket but two! Two !!", she continued, still shouting and jumping with excitement while showing the screen of her cellphone.
Anyway, my name is Kim So Ra, 25 years old. Me and Sun Mi currently live in Seoul. I graduated from college 3 years ago and have a small Book Cafe in the Yongsan district.
Cha SunMi is my best friend since middle school in Gwangju. We have been friends for almost 12 years. Even though we went to a different university, our friendship has remained tight until now.
"Wow, you finally got the tickets ... how many albums did you buy to get 2 tickets?", I asked when Sun Mi was sitting next to me.
"I bought 20 albums!", She answered happily
"Omooo .. 20 ???", I asked, not believing what I heard
"Yes, I will give the albums to my friends later. Take it easy So Ra, I will give you one too. Ah, no, I will give you 4!", She answered enthusiastically.
"Waaahh ... how much money did you spend then?", I said while shaking my head
"Hehe ...", Sun Mi just smiled
Well, Cha Sun Mi is a young designer who graduated from SKKU, and come from rich family, so she has no trouble with money. Sun Mi currently manages her own fashion brand.
"So Ra ... let's go to fansign together ?!", she said with a sweet smile
"Should I go? I'm not a true ARMY like you Sun Mi. I just enjoy their songs, I don't even remember the names of this Bangtan Sonyeondan members," I replied
"Gwaenchana! (It's ok!), You're just accompanying me to go ... huh? Come on So Ra ... I don't want to go alone", she whined
"Wouldn't your ARMY friends be happy to go with you?" I said again
"I'd be happier if you accompanied me. Come on, So Ra ... you said you really enjoyed watching the BTS concert last year," she replied while giving a pleading look
"Aigoooo ... alright! When will the fansign be held?", I replied surrendering
"April 25," she answered with a smile
"Alright I'll come", I said while rolling my eyes
"Yeeesss !!" Sun Mi started jumping up and down again. "So Ra, do you want coffee? I want to drink coffee," she continued
"No ... I already have tea," I replied, pointing to the glass in front of me
"Ok, I'll be right back," said Sun Mi, she also ran while jumping up and down to the Coffee corner.
I just laughed while shaking my head to see her behavior. Well, actually I also feel happy to join the fansign event. Because according to the news, it's very difficult to get the ticket. Sun Mi even had to stand in line for hours to be able to buy their album. And this is a miracle that she can get 2 tickets at a time, because the tickets are obtained by lottery.
Last year I went to the BTS concert because Sun Mi invited me. I always play their songs in my cafe so that eventually I become like them. And because it would be weird if only me who didn't know their songs during the concert:D
Actually I don't know the definition of ARMY, whether just by listening to their songs can already be said to be ARMY or not. To be sure, I really liked their previous album "Love Yourself : Answer", the songs are really good and have good messages. Their songs made me realize that loving myself is very important.
