How I Discovered Brian Joo...

to tell u d truth, brian joo wasn't my first korean male artist crush... but oh well i fell for him more than tim hwang (my first korean male artist crush).

in d year 2003. it was accidential actually...
when i was browsing on my files of boa's photos, i found a pic of boa with 'flytothesky' (ofcourse, dat tym, i don't even know 'flytothesky').
just... i found this cute and handsome guy (who is actually brian joo oppa) besides boa on d pic i found.
and i said to myself, 'hey this guy is really cute and handsome,' who is actually brian joo... then there's some text on d photo... something like 'fly to the sky 1010club.'
at first i didn't pay much attention, i just keep on mind dat maybe d two guys on dat photo w/ boa was somehow called fly to the sky 1010club '

this photo was d one i'm talking about... d 1st photo of brian i saw, where boa was also on it. (brian was d guy wearing yellow, and d other guy was fany/hwanhee)

then on d same year, 2003, i saw sm town's (collaboration of sm ent. artists) 'hello summer' music video. then i noticed again d same guy (brian joo oppa) i saw on one of my boa's photos i saw before.
at 1st when i was watching dat mv, i thought, hey dat guy w/ spiky & brownish hair is cute... then i think, 'wait, i think i saw dat guy before... a yeah, is he d same guy on d photo of boa i saw before?'.
then i paid more attention to him (brian joo oppa). gosh, he was really cool and he can rap well. he looks cute especially with his shades on... and oh my gosh, he keeps singing & playing happily w/ boa & d other artists.
and then, i just felt i envy boa for getting d chance to be singing and working with dat cute and handsome guy (brian joo)... then yup, i concluded after watching d music video dat he was d same guy on dat photo i saw before.

these were d video caps of brian from sm town's 'hello summer' mv

a couple of days after seeing dat sm town's mv, i was watching on 'arirang' while waiting for boa's 'double' performance, i'm not sure if it's 'show music tank' or 'showking m,' and i saw a performance of d two male kpop artists. because they were good looking, i watched it.
b4 d performance, first, each guy slowly appeared on stage as d song started to play, it's like there's a barrier or wall dat turned around for them to appear and be able to enter d stage.

i'm not sure who was d first to appeared but when they appeared on stage, their name was written on d thing they were standing on. so, i got to know their name, d one was fany & d other one was brian... and i thought, 'dat 'brian' guy is really cute'
then, d title 'missing you' & 'fly to the sky' was flashed on d screen. so think their name was 'fly to the sky' since d song is like a ballad love song. while i was watching them, i keep on eyeing to this, 'brian' guy coz i found him so cute....
again i think, 'he looks familiar for some reasons... and dat 'flytothesky' name was familiar, too'....
and then i thought, oh yeah i remembered... he was d same guy before who actually captured my attention again (and at dat tym now i know his name is 'brian').
remember, i was refering to dat sm town's summer music video & from dat photo of boa i saw before... then ryt after dat performance, i searched on d net about 'fly to the sky' to get more info about 'brian'...

these were some video caps of brian from various flytothesky's performaces during 2003












these were d video caps from flytothesky's 'missing you' mv

later on, i came to know d facts like, 'fly to the sky' was d name of d male rnb duo korean singer composed of fany & brian and that they were really close to boa, especially brian, coz boa & flytothesky had d same manager & recording label b4; and dat brian's real name is 'brian joo'... also on d same year, 2003, dat's d time when their 3rd album was released, so i even downloaded their music videos
including d most memorable mv of them, for me, w/c is 'missing you'.... and dat started my obsession on brian joo oppa... i don't know, but i fell for him more than 'tim hwang' (d singer who sang 'i love you' or 'saranghamnida' in korean), who was my first kpop male artist crush...

these were d 1st batch of brian's photos i searched on d net in 2003.

when i saw these photos, my reaction was like 'yeah i know brian joo is really cute & handsome, but i didn't know he's actually really really cute, very handsome & totally... HOT!!! '
