i have a variety of boybands decorating my backpack (im in college) and my binders, so i get questioned as to why i have a bunch of asian guys all over my stuff lol. i get asked if i understand them, to which i reply "a little, i've been studying korean for 4 years, so i can pick up alot from songs now." but in the beginning i had NO idea what they were saying yet i still loved them with all my heart ^^

OMG. I'm editing a binder cover right now for school~ Can't wait until it's done. XD

Lol we take pride in the fact that we're so dedicated to them even though we don't understand. 8D

Yeah same with my dad. He was lke "they're all girls in diguise. Trust me - in a few years, they'll all admit they're gay. " ... ughhh =__=;

WOOT! Lucky. XDD; My mom will listen to me rant but that's it... She even looked at a FB fan page for them to look at pictures tonight. loll <3 :D

Yeah! x3

Hehe. ^w^

Haha! Yeah, this girl came up to me in my ELAR class and is like, "who's this picture of?" (I have a sorry sorry pic on my binder) And I said, "It's a Korean band." And she's like, "How do you understand it?" And I just said, "....I don't." x3 I showed my dad a video of them, and he's like, "....they're kind of girly guys." -_- They'll listen to me when I rant on and on about them at dinner sometimes though. xD

@ForeverCellist

OMG. Henry~~ <3 He's so adorable. :DD AND CANADIAN. SO HE CAN SPEAK ENGLISH FLUENTLY. <3 lolll XD

Oooh and Donghae~ He's my 5th. XD lol

I've forced her into liking it. XDD Mwahaha~ The rest of my family hates them though because they're like "you're listening to music you don't even understand" and they think the entire group is too feminine. -.-; I was like "have you seen Siwon"?? lol

@xxSwanSongsxx

Same here....

Hehe. x3

Aw, mine are (#1) Wookie (#2) Henry (#3) Donghae (#4) Kyuhyun. ^^

Ah, you're lucky your mom likes Super Junior! But man, I'm only 13 so I'm still under parent rule, I wouldn't even be able to drive myself to a suju concert. My parents would have to agree to take me. But as long as we could afford cost of tickets and, if we needed, plane tickets, I'm sure they'd agree.

(gosh, long reply, sorry. >.<)

[xxSwanSongsxx]

@ForeverCellist I agree... ;-; I'd even go to neighboring states to see them again. v__v;;

Woot! 8D Success~ lol XD

Oooh~ Wookie :D ... I feel like I should be biased towards him because I really like him... but I dunno... He's still not in my top list. I feel horrible about that. :'( lol

Siwon is awesome~ He's my #4 though :P mwahaha

My biases are: (#1) Leeteukie (omgilovehimsomuchx3<3)~~ *w* (#2) Kyuhyun; (#3) Sungmin; and then Siwon... :)

My mom loves Siwon though. It's creepy... o-o;;
