BYJ Indonesian Family Gathering First Anniversary
Caza Suki Restaurant, Mahakam, Blok M,
Jakarta August 28, 2005 ; 12.00 - 16.00 WIB

Looking at the atmosphere of the place --- surrounded with lots of oppa's big posters ... place looks formal but still nice and warm -- seem like BYJ presence .... ..... Also at the big screen, playing repetitively the trailer of the April Snow ... the song is trully nice one, it slow sad song. Hope "April Snow" will be a success all over Asia.
Siggh, just looking at oppa at the big screen, makes me feel that I miss him soo. It's certainly been a while watching oppa.

Lots of good food, barbeque meat, delicious kinda kimchi soup, lots of little snacks, and also plenty of yummy sweet desserts -- a little station for "making our own mixed ice" also available there.

This time, there isn't a table full display of BYJ products and stuffs -- soo I can't take a picture of Iyan's order -- Biannata, Iyan .... maybe next time there is a gathering, we should ask Mrs. Donna before hand to bring the DVD hotelier from yesasia, so we can take a look at it ...

We start right after everybody finish eating, start with as usual, introduction of getting to know everybody ... btw, there are around 40 or maybe 50 people coming this Sunday afternoon, there are many newcomers coming to this gathering ... I'm happy -- it means that more and more people are becoming oppa's fans.

Mrs. Donna telling everybody her "Hug By Yong Joon oppa" experience ... And they play just a little bit the DVD of the Image Making , so that everybody who are interested in having "The Image" can order via My Idol Shop.

Quizzess and Games start --
there are 3 parts : ...

First part ; several questions on the April Snow .
Second part ; soundtrack of oppa's dramas and film and the year the drama made. Easy for me, just one soundtrack song that I miss , the one from Barefoot youth , which I completely barely ever heard.
Third part ; lines and sentences from all oppa's drama - and the specific moment when BYJ said those lines ... (hhmm... so ashamed of myself, I remember the lines from what drama but can not point out the moment.)

From the game, I get a handphone 's accessories which I tag along in my handphone right away after I get it ... The flashing one with 2 pictures of sexy BYJ in the Image. Actually the games are made, so that everybody can get something eventhough it's only little BYJ merchandise ...

Door prize ... is the one from Image Shop -- BYJ photo printed in the aclyric material ... looks very nice ... Fortunately, I got this at the last Gathering ...

The other door prize is the Book from Korean Air that in 4-6 pages there is Specials on Bae Yong Joon. ... I want this one, but too bad they don't take my number ... Korean Airlines hands out a regular book and put BYJ as the profile in order to attract more people coming to Korea ... hhmm... smart strategie.

oh, well, but I get other thing ... I get the BYJ on LG Handphone Brochure ? , the cover is pink, BYJ holding saxophone ... inside there is another picture of BYJ .....

THE MAIN EVENT OF Gatthering IS Bae Yong Joon's 33 years Birthday & also Celebration of 1st year BIF Everybody BLOW CANDLES on the Cake that has BYJ picture on it.

Regular Birthday Ceremonial, but becoming long and Very hilarious since this part would be shot to be given to BOF together with the presents and all Bday wishes and April Snow Success Wishes to oppa . Soo many hilarious and funny actions from all jooners are recorded in the handycam ...

Almost finish, they are showing the video that was sent to BOF last year, I never saw this edited video yet (with sounds and written explananation already included) ... Notice that I also showed up several times in the video while saying something about Yong JOon oppa ... Also IYan also showed up 2 or 3 times in the video ...

There are 3 - 4 people going to go to Korea to see the movie April Snow this year ... Inneke, Merly and Mrs. Donna ...

Have a lot of fun That Sunday. Finish around 16.15 -- Time to say Good bye to everybody Soo many good memories of BYJ were brought back to me and others, plus a chance of knowing some more people who also love oppa . Goodiebag as usual, there are some little merchandise of oppa. Too bad, Iyan can't make it to the Gathering.

Sarangheyo, Bae Yong Joon oppa .
Success for U Always .
AJA, AJA Fighting !!
Can't wait to watch April Snow.
