DEAR HYUNGSIK/SHIKKIE

I have liked you since March 15th of 2023. I didn’t think that I was gonna become a Shikkoholic, let alone a fan. Like I would say this from time to time, I was avoiding you for seven years and somehow you found me and that show was Our Blooming Youth that came out this year.

All it took was one show and that was Our Blooming Youth and I seriously thought that I would just come right back out once I got a little taste of this Korean drama that takes place in the Joseon Dynasty.

Before I became your fan, I was a fan of somebody else and I had no idea that I would leave him for you but you know what? I don’t regret it at all.

Today is a special day, it was the day that you were born to brighten up our lives. It is really strange because November 15th is our 9th month anniversary, and the 16th is your birthday. I am in the States so we are almost a day behind you so that means I am celebrating your birthday while also celebrating my 9 month anniversary with you.

I am so happy that I became your fangirl, and I also met a good friend by being your fangirl through my blog.

My fangirl sis and I will be celebrating your birthday while celebrating our 9 month anniversary with you. It is really strange because my fangirl friend became your fan around the same time as me and we have been fangirling together since late June of this year. The more we fangirl together our love for you deepens each time.

I feel like both myself and my fangirl friend went through a lot in the last 9 months being Shikkie fangirls. We shared so much about what you are. We just love your talent, your skills, your looks, your shows, your commercials, your gifs/memes, your photos, your interviews and a whole bunch of other things.

I want to thank you Shikkie for making us girls happy with your presence, you are far away from us but just watching all your cool stuff is enough to make us feel the joy and happiness in our lives.

I could’ve been been your fangirl a long time ago, and I really do regret that I ignored you for seven years, and I also regret the fact that I didn’t like ZE:A….Sometimes I wished that I was a ZE:A fangirl instead of an EXO fangirl.

When you debuted as a member of ZE:A back in 2010. I had other interests…I think at the time I was more into American music, Anime stuff, and Japanese idols more. However, around 2013, I started to get into Kpop and the group I was interested in was EXO……..I am starting to regret that I should’ve been a fangirl for ZE:A instead of EXO…..

It’s not like I didn’t hear about ZE:A, I heard that name go by here and there but unfortunately, Gwanghee was the first person that came to mind whenever that group name would go by….I can’t believe it now that I think about it…….

Also as the time went on, I started to like other Kpop boy groups like Vixx … .BTS even…..and when 2016 came, I started seeing your name go by a lot more due to Hwarang. I watched Hwarang for a different reason, I watched it for Taehyung more than anything since I knew someone that was a huge Tae Tae fangirl……I knew you were calling for me but then I ignored you at the time…….So when I was watching Hwarang, I would skip all the scenes that you were in…..I feel like a fool now, thinking about the way I treated you hehehe….

I was fangirling over someone else at the beginning of the year, at least for the first two months but you completely took me by storm, shook me up and I couldn’t go back to anyone else or even search for new endeavors ever since.

Hyungsik, you have become such a big deal to me and also to my fangirl friend that I fangirl with quite regularly.

We fangirl over you and our love for you grows deeper and deeper as the days progress. You help us to accept our creativity and flex our imaginary muscles as well.

I love all of your dramas and I think you really grew as an actor over the years. When you were starting out it seemed a little awkward but even then you had potential.

Thanks to you I’ve been writing a lot and like I mentioned above, I have been flexing my creative muscles. I don’t think I have written this many fanfics when I was fangirling over other people and also ever since I created my K-Drama blog on wordpress, I did not post stuff regularly, it was just off and on whenever I felt like it. However, ever since you came along, I have been posting on my blog once a day at the very least.

I just want to take this time to say I’m so glad that I became your fan so I want to say happy 9 month anniversary and also I want to say Happy Birthday as well! Hope you have the best birthday ever and many more to come!

I Love you Shikkie!
