Yes. I said I was there. And yes! I saw Sung in person. I was lucky enough to join a VIP family who could get into the theater first and got the best seats. After Q&A session, there were not crazy amount of people rushing into him. I was slowly walking toward to the direction to which Sung was walking. And got him!!! Or he got me. lol.
OK. I am just a fan. Not a staff member, not a sponsor, neither. Basically, I'm nobody. But Sung treated me like his long-lost sister. Well, I'm as old as Sung is and with that, I cannot be his sister. Indeed, if our age combined, we are 100 years old.
Anyway, that's not what I wanted to say. I was insanely happy though I had to hide it very well trying not to invoke Security staff's duty.
I know I'm such a loser, flying to Tampa, just to spend one night for this chance to see Sung in person. But it worked!! Well, he didn't show this to me, but he might have been a bit scared that this old Japanese female stalking him for almost 18 years already without any sign of giving up. I'd be very terrified if there is anyone like that. lol. But glad he didn't mind me showing up in front of him like this.
I think we'll meet again in the future. I don't know when, but we shall meet. I started feeling time is not against of me when it comes to staying attached to someone. There is no expiration date for this. And as long as Sung keeps on shining like this, I can find my chance to see him again like this! Maybe next time in Tokyo?
In case anyone cares, my husband is supportive about my passion. He doesn't seem to have any problem about me keeping trying to root Sung in every form available though he doesn't continue listening to me talking about how cool Sung is. My husband has met Sung in person as well a while ago. He knows how chill Sung is and he likes Sung's works as well.
