Hey everyone! \u263a\ufe0f\ud83d\udc4b\ud83c\udffc <\/span><\/p>\n

It’s Yana here with another scoop from the Philippine entertainment scene \u2661. Guess what? I just went to a concert of the K-pop star Cha Eun-woo! I’ll be sharing all about my amazing experience at my favorite Korean idol’s concert. So, let’s dive in!<\/span><\/p>\n

My Favorite Korean Idol, Cha Eun-woo<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I’m so excited to share that I went to the concert of my all-time favorite K-pop star, Cha Eun-woo. He’s one of the members of ASTRO and is also known as “the most handsome man in the world”<\/em>\u2728. Aside from his group activities in South Korea, he’s also a leading star in variety shows and dramas. I became a huge fan after watching him in “My ID is Gangnam Beauty”<\/em> on Netflix.<\/span><\/p>\n

I Got a Ticket, Hooray!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I worked so hard to get a ticket! When I heard Eun-woo was coming to Manila, I applied for the tickets but didn’t win the lottery \ud83d\ude2d. Still, I didn’t give up! I kept saying “I want to go to Eun-woo’s concert,” around my friends, and eventually, one of them made a connection with someone in the fan club, and guess what… I got a ticket!! And it wasn’t just any ticket, it was a ROYALTY VIP ticket \ud83c\udfab\ud83d\udc96. Thank you, best friend!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With the ROYALTY VIP package, I could watch the rehearsal before the main event and even had a meet & greet session. It’s rare for him to come to Manila, so I splurged Php 14,000 on it \ud83e\udd23.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Meet & Greet<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While fans can’t take a photo with Eun-woo during the Meet & Greet, everyone was still so happy and excited. Fans were waving and sending love to Eun-woo. And there I was, my Japanese self coming through, bowing instead. Why did I do that\u2014LOL. And to top it off, I had lipstick on my teeth\u2014so embarrassing \ud83e\udd23\ud83d\ude2d. Check out the videos from that day on my Instagram! You might become a fan of Eun-woo too.<\/span><\/p>\n

This concert was such a great experience. I’m inspired to shine like him and will work hard towards becoming a star \ud83c\udfc3\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f. First stop, hitting the gym \ud83d\ude06.<\/span><\/p>\n

I frequently post updates on my social media, so make sure to check it out! Right now, I\u2019m especially active on Instagram and TikTok!<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking forward to sharing more with you in my next column. Stay tuned!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc95Love, Yana.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
