My SS9 Experience last Aug (that I wasnt able to publish because I was too emotional.

Ive tried writing this entry multiple times since this happened, but every time I start, I cry. 

For a non-fan (of SuJu or Kpop overall) this may seem dramatic and its fine. I dont take offense on it, to each their own. 

So let me start to share my experience. 

Friday night, we (ELFs) found out that Eunhyuk (E-Oppa)'s Appa, passed whilst he was on his way to MNL. Twitterverse was in disarray and most called for a cancellation of their concert. I slept around 5AM, just looking into what Label SJ, SuJu, Inang Happee to announce something. I myself twitted multiple times calling for a cancellation. 

Collectively, the fandom agreed and are willing to let it all go, just so the members can be together with Eunhyuk.

Saturday, I was still preparing for the concert when LabelSJ announced that they will postponed the concert and convert it into a Fan Meet. 

Honestly, they didn't have to do that, but they did. In this trying time, they still think of their fans. 

Elfs from all over still came to support our boys and queued for hours to not just meet them but to also give them strength. 

We didnt care if the weather was crazy, its a small thing that we can do for the members that are still in MNL. 

Finally they opened the doors, Madam Kring (@KringKim) opened the con. She explained to us what will happen, what's going to happen and what the sentiments of our boys are. 

No dry eyes were there that night. 

Then, the boys came on stage. We can see from their faces that they are trying so hard not to break, meanwhile, Elfs were chanting "Gwenchana/Kenchana" meaning its ok in Korean. 

Shindong broke down first, I think he didnt even finish his ment, followed by Ryeowook, then Donghae, Yesung, Kyuhyun and then uri leader Leeteuk, still manage to make us chuckle amidst our cries. 

They sang 3 songs, which is more than we could ask for, given the situation. Some who are not fans or close followers of SuJu wouldnt have noticed, but the Hyung Line (Leeteuk, Yesung & Shindong) stopped a couple of time while singing and the Maknae Line picked it up. Yesung at one point, had to sing the adlib of Siwon but couldnt so Kyu picked it up. 

It was both heartbreaking and amazing. What SuJu did is not something other groups can do.
