favorites x favorites = favorites² (my kind of math)

[meitachi]

HenMi are family/BFF with AmToria ;A; My life is made. Old news, sure, but I always want to flail over my favorites. Feel free to ignore this; I just wanted to vent my joy.




Victoria thanked Zhou Mimi in Chinese in Pinocchio's "Thanks To" (hehe and Nichkhun too ♥) and Zhou Mi talks about her (while Henry talks about Amber) on 110517 iLike Radio Entertainment E Generation:

Ken: Okay~ The time is now 11.42pm, and you’re now listening to iLike Radio’s Entertainment E-Generation. Tonight, Zhou Mi and Henry have shared their experiences about their lives recently, and have came to know about the music that they like. Actually there are times that I want to take the standpoint of a host – because now you’re also considered as the hosts (of this show) – I want to take the standpoint of a host to ask about your lives while in Korea, because previously I rarely had the opportunity to talk to you about this topic. Like how in SM, in f(x), there’s Amber, who is very much like you.

Henry: Yes, her background is very similar to me.

Ken: And there’s another one… Zhang Liyin?

Zhou Mi: No, it’s Songqian (Victoria).

Ken: Ah yes, it’s Victoria!

Zhou Mi: Victoria’s like me.

Ken: That’s right!

Henry: Victoria is similar to Zhou Mi, and Amber is similar to me.

Ken: Yes, that’s right! So can we discuss about this? Did you become even closer friends because of the similarity in your backgrounds?

Zhou Mi: Actually, we’re pretty close to Amber and Victoria.

Ken: Pretty close?

Zhou Mi: Because we’re all trainees from China. Also, because Amber’s background is similar to Henry’s, and Victoria’s background is similar to mine…

Ken: Let’s talk about Amber first. Amber’s family members are staying in Taiwan too, right?

Henry: Yes, she’s… her mother is a Taiwanese

Ken: Your mother is also a Taiwanese.

Henry: My mother is Taiwanese. Her father is… is… uh…

Ken: Of the Teochew lineage.

Henry: Teochew lineage, yes, so it’s exactly the same as me.

Ken: Why did I say it even faster than you did?

Henry: Haha! I couldn’t recall the word ‘Teochew’ all of a sudden.

Ken: So her father is also Teochew?

Henry: Yes, that’s what I’ve heard.

Ken: So don’t you know how to speak Cantonese?

Henry: I know how to speak (Cantonese), but I suck at it. Very badly.

Ken: Oh, so you picked up Cantonese while in Canada?

Henry: Actually when I was young my father would speak to me in Cantonese.

Ken: Why do Teochew people speak in Cantonese? 5

Henry: Because he went to Hong Kong when he was young.

Ken: Hong Kong?

Henry: Yes.

Ken: Ohh, so it’s like that. So Amber is just like you, not knowing how to speak Korean in Korea at the beginning, and learned until she could use the language? Most of her time was spent in America in the past, right?

Henry: Yes, in LA. She was there since she was young.

Ken: So are you especially close with Amber because of this?

Henry: I’m very close with her. I treat her as a little sister. We would go everywhere together in Korea.

Ken: Oh, really?!

Henry: That’s right.

Ken: Then where would you go?

Henry: We would go to a lot of places… have meals…

Ken: Have meals, shopping…

Henry: That’s right, because we can speak to each other very well, and would converse in English.

Ken: Oh, you would converse in English?

Henry: Yes, so it’s very relaxing.

Ken: So if the both of you are together, your Korean wouldn’t improve, and neither would your Mandarin.

[Zhou Mi laughs in background.]

Henry: (laughs) That’s why I’m bad at speaking both Korean and Mandarin.

Ken: It’s alright. Actually after these two months I think that Henry’s Mandarin had improved a lot.

Henry: Really?

Ken: Yes. I remember the first time when I met you, that time you couldn’t really (speak).

Henry: That time I really couldn’t speak in Mandarin.

Ken: Yes, you couldn’t. But Victoria and Zhou Mi, you should be very friendly with each other right?

Zhou Mi: I think that Victoria is the closest person to me.

Ken: Oh, really?

Zhou Mi: Yes, because we were selected to join SM by the same woman, so we’re very familiar with each other. We would also frequently go out for meals together in Korea; we both have a huge appetite.

Ken: Oh, both of you eat a lot.

Zhou Mi: Yes. I also think that there’s a difference between guys and girls. Because I’m a guy, I would probably be stronger when I go to Korea.

Ken: Yes, more resilient.

Zhou Mi: More resilient. But there are times where girls might be a little more… how should I say this?

Ken: Girls would be more delicate, or probably more sensitive at times, so their mood would sometimes be bad.

Zhou Mi: Yes, that’s why I feel that actually it wasn’t easy for Victoria to debut in Korea. We would sometimes talk to each other, and share our feelings. I’m really happy for her for having such results now.

Ken: That’s right, f(x) has some really good results recently.

Henry: Yes, recently they won first place.

Ken: Their new album kept on winning first place in Korea. Oh in Taiwan, I came to know that Zhou Mi loves to shop a lot, is that right?

Zhou Mi: Yes.

Ken: Would you do that in Korea?

Zhou Mi: Victoria and I both would go shopping together (laughs).

Ken: Where would you go? If I want to get clothes in Korea, do I have to go to Apgujung?

Henry: Are you going to go to Korea in the next few days?

Ken: That’s right.

Zhou Mi: Apgujung is good. It’s actually a street with a relaxing feel where you can just walk around.

Ken: Do you always go to Apgujung? Because it’s near your company.

Zhou Mi: We would go everywhere. Apgujung… Myeongdong… and also Dongdaemoon because it’s open 24-hours. So I would suggest that Ken ge to pay a visit to those places.

Ken: I never (had the opportunity to) go there every time. Actually I don’t really know what to get either, but because every time after I get off work I would feel that I don’t go walking around much…

Zhou Mi: The problem would be with the opening times.

Ken: That’s right. Recently f(x) released an official comeback album. Before this Amber was injured, but now she has recovered and is back.

Henry: Welcome back.

Ken: It’s a very nice album to listen to, and the photos within are also very beautiful. Today, since Henry really loves his own sister a lot, so he wanted to introduce their song today.

Henry: Okay, the song that I would like to introduce today is f(x)’s Pinocchio. Shout-out to Amber. Wassup.

Ken: Yeah, Amber.

Victoria on Korean Impression [3:01] ;A;

alksdfhjd Zhou Mimi hanging out with Victoria. God, they are SO FUCKING CUTE. She hits him. ♥ They make fun of each other in the most lovingly abusive familial way. I hope they shop and eat and giggle and talk - her to him about Nichkhun, him to her about Kyuhyun hot boys whose pants he wants in. Ahhhhhh, my favorite favorites being so close. I am happy. :DDDDD

And LOL Henry and Amber, LOL their English (wassup! violin boy!), their failure at other languages, the fact that Amber is probably way cooler than Henry, who is all o(^0^)o LOOK AT MY ANGRY BIRDS T-SHIRTS TEEHEEHEE. Also, his unironic love for Bieber (whom I'm now sort of indulgently fond of/amused by when he shows up on things like the Billboard Music Awards, THANKS A LOT HENRY) - I wonder if Amber mocks him for that. I would.

God, they make me happy. At the fan signing, Mimi looked like hot stuff :D and Qmi existed, kind of! ?_? Kyuhyun, you have returned to your previous levels of awkward again, god, stop it. Donghae looks good lately, even if I still hate the hair - I think it's growing on me mostly because I miss him, ahaha. The Henwook & Henhae & Henhaewook at the fan signing makes me sooo happy.

Khuntoria does too - EXCEPT UGH HOW DID YOU UTTERLY FUCK-UP KISSING HER, YOU IDIOT, NICHKHUN. WHAT WAS THAT. You clearly want to ravish her a lot, but god you are so awkward. Everyone is so awkward. Stop learning from Kyuhyun, who has a secondhand embarrassment factor of 11.


I don't want to talk about real life, sorry. One piece of news: I did graduate from law school, so...that happened. ┐(´ー`)┌

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Thanks, bb. I am a fan of Squirtle! Though I think Charmander was my favorite.

And, again, 生日快乐！ :3

[forochel.livejournal.com]

I liked Bulbasaur best :D or Pikachu ...

[meiface.livejournal.com]

pikachu is always cute :3

[forochel.livejournal.com]

... I just made THE MOST INCOHERENT NOISE IN THE WORLD. and I want to show it to my friend, but SHE'S AT FIELDWORK. which I will be at tomorrow. BUT WITH NO COMPUTER. NGGGAAAARHHHHHHH KAAAWAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIII *is fifteen again*

ILU, BB. Congratulations! BTW, try not to call or text for a bit, I left behind my phone in Atlanta...and I have to wait till it gets mailed back. I'll let you know when I get it back. <3

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Thanks. ♥ I hope you had a good time in ATL! Aside from leaving your phone there... Bar review starts tomorrow for me, so I'll be pretty busy anyway. Ping me whenever/however. Ugh, I feel so antisocial lately. /o\

[papered.livejournal.com]

ahaha I am flisting for the first time in ... weeks, and this is the second post I come across, hohoho. ZHOU MI AND VICTORIA ARE SO CUTE IN THAT CLIP, omg. SHE KICKS HIM. AND THEN HITS HIM. I have ♥s in my eyes, ;~~~~;.


also HI MEI. I haven't talked to you online in so long, omg ;~~~;. rolls on you.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

aaaah I've been a bit antisocial lately, so you haven't missed much from me at least, LJ-wise.

ZHOU MI AND VICTORIA ARE ALWAYS CUTE. ♥v♥ I love that they are friends \o/ I love when my biases have the good taste to like each other, hoho.

[darkunicorna.livejournal.com]

UGH I AM SO OUT OF KPOP FANDOM WHAT IS THIS. Okay, so the only thing I know about f(x) is that their name is kind of math-y and I used to listen to their song La Cha Ta (IS THIS THE RIGHT TITLE?) a lot, but YAY THIS IS INTERESTING NOW I'M INTRIGUED ABOUT THEM.

AND WHAT IS THIS KHUNTORIA BUSINESS, I THOUGHT IN GENERAL KPOP STARS WEREN'T ALLOWED TO DATE

Also Qmi forever

[darkunicorna.livejournal.com]

ALSO ALSO whoops but CONGRATS ON GRADUATING FROM LAW SCHOOL ~~~~

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Thank you! ♥

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Yes, La cha ta, but thankfully they have had more songs since that. /o\ Chu~♡ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cnz2n5VcV4Q), NU ABO (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8ZrPFMr_nY), and now Pinocchio (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKS12iGFyEA) - all catchy and nonsensical ahaha. The way kpop is, I guess. You should learn more about them! Or at least Amber (young, Chinese-American from LA) and Victoria (my age, therefore, old, leader, Chinese from Qingdao, amazing dancer) because they are the beeeest.

Khuntoria is Nichkhun from 2PM (he is Thai!) and Victoria from f(x) on the weird but super popular Korean reality show "We Got Married (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_Got_Married)", where two idols have to...pretend to be married. You can check out subbed Khuntoria episodes here (http://kwavecraze.blogspot.com/2010/12/we-got-married-khuntoria.html). /enables. I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS ABOUT WGM AND KHUNTORIA. Like, it's a strange premise and really awkward and uncomfortable at times (also, wow, blindingly stereotypical Asian gender roles, hello), but it is made up for the buckets and buckets of adorable (and UST) between Khuntoria, keke. It's basically the only kpop I care about, because otherwise I'm just all over SJM. orz

[ky-rin.livejournal.com]

/ROLLS ALL OVER THIS POST

[meiface.livejournal.com]

/ROLLS BACK

[ky-rin.livejournal.com]

/ROLLS ALL OVER YOU

I really, really want khuntoria to date :( now I also want all my suju fic to come with f(x) ;;;;;;

[meiface.livejournal.com]

I want them to date too alskdfdjf and make out. WHY WON'T YOU MAKE OUT. /overinvested in a creepy way haha

;_; what is fic again...

[konnistique.livejournal.com]

LOL @ Henry saying he fails at Cantonese. It's all good, because he pronounces everything fine! But I love all their friendship, another SM sub-unit, it totally works!

And Hi!

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Being able to understand a word of Cantonese, I am no judge, but I :3 at his ability. He and Zhou Mi and their language abilities, ahhh. Screw the rest of SJ who can only speak Korean and the requisite basic intros of other languages. HenMi \o/ and the rest of SJM too, kind of...

[pregnantcigar.livejournal.com]

I love this entry! /bookmarks

[meiface.livejournal.com]

It is full of fabulous people :D

[(Anonymous)]

(found this post by creeping through someone's delicious bookmarks otl) this post ♥ you know that victoria and kyuhyun are also best friends right? victoria mentioned it on a radio show in april :) i didn't know zhou mi and victoria were also rly close tho! i want to see victoria/kyuhyun/zhou mi shenanigans, i hope they hang out the same way we know victoria/kyu/changmin do irl. this post was rly cute.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Tinhat on: it's because Qmi come as a set, so of course if she's close with one she can't help but be around and close to the second! :3

Tinhat off: haha I'm not surprised, actually, because they're the only two SJ(M) members she thanked by name in her Thanks To. ♥ SO CUTE THEY SHOULD HANG OUT AND MITORIA WOULD MOCK KYU TOGETHER IN CHINESE AND QTORIA WOULD GANG UP ON MI FOR...EVERYTHING ELSE.

Yesss I also love how Changmin is close to all of them too. :D

[acornmama.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on graduating! A little anti-climatic yeah? It will pass. It always does.

I have to be careful around you. I really just found Qmi and I find them adorable but you will make me a stalker if I am not careful. I love that you love them so much it shows and rubs off.

This was so nice to read and to watch the video. Thanks.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

haha why anyone would want to resist the temptation of Qmi is beyond me. ;) There's so much to enjoy - for instance, the videos in my latest post. They are just so much fun.

[acornmama.livejournal.com]

Yes, I know I set myself to track you so I wouldn't miss anything. LOL So this way I am second hand stalking. if that makes sense.
I am fairly sure I have let that ship pass and am in love with them too much to care. Love the videos and the pictures.
