"Seriously! I know that they are still not done with their promotions and that they also need time to take some rest. I understand that. But could not he even send me a message? It's Valentine's Day Tomorrow! VALENTINE'S DAY!"
Sandara paced back and forth in their apartment's living room. Bommie went out with Minji. They planned on doing the grocery shopping today. And knowing Minji, she'd probably drag her Unnie to go have window shopping. Of course, she’s bommie, so they’d probably take their time. So it is just the two of us, CL and me, in our new apartment. I had waited, have been waiting and will probably continuously wait for his text message to come. But I am losing hope already.
"Unnie, Calm down. Maybe, he's just too busy to even type a message. You know Jingyo oppa can be lost in his own world in a minute when it comes to work. He’s so hardworking."
"Pudong, Just a simple 'Happy Valentine's day Jagiya' would be enough for me. It won’t even take him five minutes to type it down. No, no. Okay, let me change that. Even just a single hi nor hello from that dragon would really be fine would me. At least he knows that I exist and that I am alive and breathing." She plopped down beside CL and scream in frustration. The sofa made a soft squeak at her weight.
Then she continued with her rants, snorting a little. "Seungri even mentioned him being the romantic one amongst them all. Look, where's the romantic-ness is Kwon Jiyong now? I am actually expecting more from him since I have decided to finally speak my mind in that interview. I was even so excited that he’ll be very happy about it but after the interview came out it’s like nothing had happened. Everyone was teasing me but he? I did not get any reaction at all. What irks me up is the way he responded in that interview as well.” the she continued with her voice imitating the way Jiyong answered in the guerilla date interview about her said ‘confession’. “What was that he said? oh ’I am honored that she views me that way’ good grief!”
CL hugged her unnie. "Don't worry unnie. Everything will be fine. Don't be too upset. You know that interview, he must be just being cautious. YG sunbae was so intent on saying to us before that we should not let anyone know YET of the true situation of you relationship. Fans might have a heart attack like what happened with Dong wook oppa."
"It’s different. And fans are already reacting possibly. I am not actually worried about the fans’ reaction. I know they’ll understand. But what I am dreading is a different one, pudong. What if he realized that he wants to be with someone of the same age as him? What if he had a change of heart? What if he really does not love me and that he only thought that he does because we are best friends. He had mistaken affection for a friend for love. Oh my God! Maybe, that’s it. That’s way he is not contacting me now."
"Darong unnie, you are exaggerating! And it is not Valentine's Day yet. It's tomorrow. So, you should not worry... and besides Jingyo oppa is very much obsessed with you" CL giggled at her choice of words, hoping that it would perk up the mood of her Dara unnie. But to her dismay, Dara did not even acknowledge what she had said but just heaved a heavy sigh.
"I am not sure chaerin... I don't know anymore..."
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
It's finally THE DAY! I woke really early in the morning hoping and wishing that somehow Ji already sent me a message or a voice mail. I hastily grabbed my phone near the lampshade, dimly lighting the room I share with Bommie, But nada nada. My hope was totally crushed.
There was a soft knock on my door and the girls barged inside the room.
"Unnie!" CL and Minji chorused and throw themselves in the comforts of my bed.
"Yah! Y'all so noisy! I am still sleeping!" Bommie tried to get her point her across by scowling but since she's too sleepy it did really turn out as a scowl but as a cute scrunching up of her nose. The two girls giggled.
"Yah, it's Valentine's day! And since we all do not have any plans for the whole day, let's have a valentine's date in a 2-N-E-1 way! RAWR!"
"Let's go clubbing! Yeah!" minji danced her alluring sexy dance. Aigoo these kids.
"No. You both are two young to even set one toe in a club." I declined. Well, actually, it is not only because of that but also I was kind of hoping I'd receive a message from a certain oppa-like-dongsaeng, saying he’d prepare a romantic dinner date for our valentine’s day celebration.
"Unnie! We already asked YG sunbae if he'd allow us to go to one of his clubs and he said yes! Come on don't be a kill joy!" CL pouted and made an attempt to produce a puppy dog eyes.
"Dalong, you know you won't be able to say no to those two. Just go with us, kay?" Bommie decided to finally cut her beauty sleep since she's sure she wasn't going to get any. The girls made sure of it.
"Fine."
"Yes! Now get ready dalong-unnie! Come on don't waste so much time!"
I just stared at CL. What is she talking about? Isn't clubbing fun at night? Why go there right away at… She glanced at the clock one her bedside table, eight-thirty in the morning... Is there even a club open at this hour?
"It is still so early--,"
"No, unnie, we have to doll up! Come on, We are going to buy a pretty dress and new boots, I really wanted to buy the one we saw in that shop at.." and CL continued to drag her unnie while laying out everything they had for the day. Apparently, the girls had planned everything out. Maybe, they just wanted her not to feel depressed about her boyfriend not greeting her a happy valentine's Day.
"Are you listening to me, Unnie?!"
I smiled weakly and nodded. "Yes, I am."
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
We’ve been looking around boutiques and department stores but they sure are very picky today as to what we should wear. I thought we would already stop walking around, for my feet are already screaming in pain, once I choose an outfit for our night out, A red V neckline mini dress made of polyester fabric with sheer short sleeves, pleating at cuff. I chose so that we could find theirs for I noticed that we are taking too long in finding me a dress that would suit our plans tonight. However, they bluntly discarded what I chose and went to the next boutique on their list. There I saw another pretty outfit that I suggested to Bommie. It would really look good on her! It’s a brown A-line skirt mini dress that hits above the knee. But she shook her head and said, “No we should find yours first. We passed racks and racks of stylish clothes but they still disapproved of it. Even CL! it’s almost lunch time and I am feeling my stomach protesting already.
That was when I saw this dress. I stopped, Bom almost bumped on me but stopped just in time.
“What is it?” she asked, and then followed where my eyes are glued at. “Ooohhhh, you found the perfect one! Come on Let’s try it!”
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
“At long last! We could finally eat! I am starving!” Bommie exclaimed as we enter a restaurant located near the boutique where we shopped.
“You are complaining when you’re the one who rejected everything I suggested. We should have had lunch two hours ago if you’d just say yes for the first dress I pointed out to you. Now it’s already two-thirty!”
“Dara, it would not really suit this occasion!”
“We are just going out, clubbing tonight. No need to bother, you know.” when she pouted, I looked at the two girls who are admiring the dress they bought for themselves.
I imagine them wearing it and I could totally see the look on the faces of the people, they’d definitely admire these two young ladies.
I almost forgot. CL’s birthday is just a few days away. And I still don’t know what to give her. I remember going to her fanblog the other day and I was amazed how her fans thought of those amazing gifts for her. Even Minzy’s! The cake YGLadies had given was really cute and yummy.
“Unnie! You’re spacing out again!” It was CL’s voice that broke my line of thoughts.
“Sorry, I was just thinking…” then I saw him. Wait. Was it really… No, couldn’t be. He’s busy. Do I miss him that much that I am even seeing him everywhere?
“What is it unnie?” Minzy looked at where I was staring but I quickly touched her hand gaining back her attention.
“It’s nothing.” I smiled at her. I don’t want Minzy to confirm what I saw. Somehow I still believe that he did not have much time to greet me today. As his girlfriend, I should understand more than anyone else, right? So I just wish he’d greet me before the end of this day.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Am I going to enjoy our night out?
What a silly question. Of course I will. How could I not, when I am with these girls whom I love so much. After having lunch we went to the salon and had our make up done. After spending two hours or so at the salon, we went to YG sunbae’s club. It took us an hour and a half to go there, but as we are about to enter the club, we saw that there aren’t many people yet since it would not open ‘till seven in the evening.
We still have one hour. The bouncers did not let us enter the club yet.
“Hey!” It was Young Bae.
“Bae!”
“Bae, oppa!”
“What are you doing here?” he sounded like we’re not suppose to be here and we should not be here.
“Cuz we have our girl’s night out!”
“No, you can’t go in yet. the club isn’t…”
“It’s okay Bae, we can wait at the lounge while waiting for it to open….”
“No, really, noona. YG sunbae’s orders.” Then he pushed and CL away from the entrance of the club. “Go walk around a bit…” he suggested.
“Bae! It’s already dark! We are not supposed to…” But he raised his hand to stop Bom from continuing her speech. He grabbed Bommie’s right hand and dragged her towards where we’re standing. “Go…”
“Okay, come on girls!” Eh? That’s it, just one touch from young bae and she already agreed. I thought she likes Seunghyun?? We just have to wait one hour…
“Bom…”
“No, dalong. It’s okay. Let’s go. We’ll probably get bored inside. I’ll be right behind you! Go ahead!” She specifically said this to the two maknaes, who murmured an “oh” and dragged me away from Bom.
When I looked back at Bommie, she put something inside her left front flap pockets. She’s actually wearing this purple long sleeved dress, which only reached her upper thigh. She looks soooo sexy! I am not a lesbo, kay? I just know how to appreciate other’s beauty! Haha. Besides I have a boyfriend. keke
“She then ran to catch up with us. “Hey, let’s go there! They say that there’s a good show we could watch! Come on!”
We made our way towards the other street. There are many people. Although they recognized us, I am so grateful that they did not ask for our autographs and pictures. We walked with them, blending in the crowd just like a normal person and it’s just so fun!
“CL!!” we stopped and whirled around to see Seungri running towards us. “Hey, help me!!!!! please???!”
“Huh? Why?”
“I need your advice! I don’t know what to wear for my date today! Good thing I saw you! I only have one hour to choose an outfit for my date!” he said in one go that no one tried to speak. When we realized that he’s not going to add anything anymore, I cleared my throat.
“Go ahead, pudong. Help this adorable maknae for his date.”
“But Unnie! I want to watch the show with you!”
“What show?” Seungri asked.
“No, you go with him. For sure, you’d still be able to watch it. Just go and help Seungri real fast.”
“Ugh! You Seungri rat! Why do you always have to ruin my night?!” then she turned to me. “Unnie, can I bring Mingkki with me? Please?”
“Okay, go ahead. Be sure to comeback fast enough to watch the show!” I yelled as I waved them goodbye. “I can’t believe Seungri has a date and WE, us girls, don’t. What a great Valentine’s Day we have.” I sighed. “Hey, Park Bom! Where are we going anyways? You did not tell them where they should go look for us!”
“Don’t worry I’ll text them! It’s in front of the Tower Palace 3. We have to cross the street to watch it! Let’s hurry up!” I know what place she’s referring. It’s actually one of the tallest skyscrapers here in Korea. But how could there be a show there? It’s a residential skyscraper. I heard from Jiyong that he had been there because some of his friends live there, “kind of luxurious” he said. I tried to catch up with Bom But the high-heel shoes they forced on me is really giving me a hard time. Not to mention the dress I am wearing. Yes it is really pretty. The laced long sleeves and top of the dress is giving me no protection from the coldness of the weather right now. I don’t know, but when I laid my eyes on this dress, I thought “I have to have that dress.” It’s so beautiful. It actually has this string chain belt of loops that holds the mesh of the black mini dress together. And the pleating just down the front adds up to its sophisticated look. I actually thought, hey I could use this in any occasion! But Bommie’s is actually cool too! Speaking of Bommie…
“Bommie! Are you sure it’s…” But when I looked back from where I last saw Bom, I could not find her anymore. ‘Oh my God! I lost her! How could I find her? I don’t have my phone with me.’ You see, I was so irritated awhile ago about Ji not calling nor texting me that I purposely left it at home.
Now I regretted my actions. Maybe, I should just go where she said we could watch the show. For sure, she’ll go there straight.
“It’s Dara!”
“Look, It’s 2ne1’s Sandara!” People are murmuring my name as I passed by them, I feel kinda stupid, since I know that this place is a residential one. And although I am a famous celebrity, it still looks so odd that I am standing here at the sidewalk in front of one of the tallest buildings in South Korea, all alone. I tired to brush away the feeling.
“I will wait for Bommie here. Maybe, she just got the wrong information.” I looked up at the building and admired its elegance and magnificence.
It’s really so high! I could not even imagine how high it is. As I am continually gazing up at the tower, all the lights of the tower suddenly died. What’s happening? Brown out? or black out? I looked around and saw that the other buildings’ lights are still on. People also stopped on their tracks to see what happened.
So what could be wrong with…
The lights suddenly danced. It’s like they have their own life. Is it what Bom was saying? Oh no! She’d miss it!
It’s amazing! It started at the very first floor of the skyscraper up to the very top. It’s so beautiful, that I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. There were lights that formed different kinds of flowers, there were also butterflies and rabbits. The flowers were like falling down slowly to the ground, while the butterflies fluttered their wings as they go up, avoiding the flowers, falling like rain drops in slow-mo. How did they do this? The two bunnies are just at the foot jumping once… twice… then stopped. Their heads looked upward as if waiting for something.
We, including the strangers passing by, waited for the next act only to be greeted by a song. It was a very roman…wait. I know this song… I know this…
Say goodbye
When I can barely say goodnight
If I can hardly take my eyes from yours
How far can I go?Walk away
The thought would never cross my mind
I couldn’t turn my back on Spring or Fall
Your smile least of all
It’s an *OPM song… How did a Korean know this song? Amazing! Even in Korea, it’s being used as… Oh my God! Someone’s doing a proposal! What a lucky girl! She is receiving her marriage proposal on Valentine’s Day! Who could it be?
When I say always
I mean forever
I trust tomorrow as much as today
The music continued to play as the words “Marry Me” flashed, falling down gloriously. It’s an awesome proposal. The guy seriously thought and planned things out. What amazes me the most is that the building he used is not an ordinary building at all. It’s in fact the tallest building from the year 2004 to 2009. And in addition to that, as I have said earlier it’s also a luxurious residential building. How did he manage to convince the people living there to cooperate with him. He must be a very influential person.
My eyes followed the words Marry Me as it halted near the fifth floor. I am still waiting for the name of the lucky girl to appear when the girl beside me screamed, “OH MY GOD!!!! IT’S G-Dragon!”
G-Dragon? It couldn’t be… But as my mind, tried to deny it, my eyes confirmed the girl’s words. There, right across the street was no other than GDragon… not in his usual hiphop fashion but in a black tux, He’s holding bouquet of pink roses.
I could not even take my eyes off of him. I could not feel everyone’s eyes looking at the both of us.
I am not afraid to say I love you
And I promise you
I’ll never say goodbye
This time it’s not Martin Nievera’s voice but Kwon Jiyong’s. I laughed and cried at the same time. How could he be this romantic? He started to cross the street towards where I am standing.
I am not afraid to say I love you
And I promise you
I’ll never say goodbye
He stopped a few steps away from me and gave me a shy smile. “I am not afraid to say I love you,” he took one step towards me, then stopped. “I’ll never say goodbye, just let me stay with you forever…” everything happened like it’s in slow motion, like in movies, Jiyong’s down on bended knees, gazing up at me with his hazel eyes, holding out a red velvet box containing simple gold wedding ring band. “Marry me, my butterfly,” he said as the name of the lucky girl appeared below the words “Marry Me”.
My heart was beating so loudly, my tears were continuously flowing, but it’s not because my boyfriend does not care that it’s Valentine’s Day. No. It’s not because of that anymore.
I bit my lower lip and run towards him. What else can I say? What else could I say? I hugged him tight. Encircling my arms around the back of his neck as I whispered, “Oh Ji… why? how? all these…” I know I am not making any sense at all. How could I? With this kind of proposal?
He chuckled lightly. “Jagiya, don’t ask questions anymore… Just say yes, please?” he murmured back. But of course, everyone heard our conversation since he’s wearing a lapel, making everyone laugh.
I feel myself blushing. “Oh…” I broke away from our embrace and looked at him.
“So?” he asked, wiggling his eyebrows at me. “What’s your answer baby girl?”
“How can I say no?”
“How, really?” he answered back, smiling sheepishly at me.
I giggled at his boyish antics. It felt like we were playing, but we aren’t. I know he’s serious about it, and I could never ask for anything else. I tiptoed to give him a quick peck on the lips and whispered, “Yes, I will, baby boy.”
Everyone was cheering for us! Clapping and screaming their congratulations at us. As we looked around, we actually are surprised that there are media people now covering the proposal of the mighty dragon to his Goddess.
He saw the frown forming on my face and so he lightly squeezed my hand and whispered, “Don’t worry, Jagiya. I know that they’ll accept us.”
He thought that I am thinking of what people might say after seeing his proposal on national TV. But my mind is actually far from those thoughts. “Jiyong, it’s Valentine’s Day!”
“Uhm… Yes, it is. I guess,” was his response. I can see how confuse he was because of what I said.
“And the girls! We’re going to have a night out! We have to find bommie! I lost her while we’re on her way here!” I cried out. We totally forgot that we are actually in the middle of gawking fans and cameras of the media and that he is still wearing his lapel.
“Ah… well you see baby girl,” he said while waving to the fans calling out his name, “I actually conspired with them in carrying out everything that you had just seen.”
“Are you saying that they are running up and down that high building just to…”
“No, no, no. Dara, it’s not humanly possible to that!” laughing out loud at my notion. “You see, Seungri, CL, Minzy and Dae are in the control room of this building. They are in charge of that.”
“Oh!” Finally realizing that their friends are actually a part this proposal. “And Bommie?”
“Well, Bom noona went back to the club to help Bae and Seunghyun hyung.” He must have read my thoughts because of my expression, so he added, “and that’s our next destination.”
“Eh?”
“Aren’t you excited for our Valentine’s Date?”
“We are going on a date in a club????”
“Yes, we are…”
“But it’s not the usual way couples celebrate their Valentine’s Day!” I whined, although I am actually in heaven already for what he had done today. My boyfriend just proposed to me on Valentine’s Day! After making me feel so sad, he suddenly drops this kind of bomb to me, making me forget about everything.
“We are not a usual couple so why should we do the usual things they do too? Come on, Bom noona will get angry if we don’t go there and enjoy what they had prepared for us…” then he turned to the crowd and the cameras and yelled “Annyeong!!!!”

Headline: The Dragon Whisks Away His Goddess
by : CRITICALMIND
Kwon Jiyong, popularly known as G-Dragon of Big Bang by many people, pulled out a very spectacular performance yesterday at the Samsung Tower Palace 3, in the middle of the bustling city of Seoul. But it’s not his usual performance with his members, but a performance he needs to carry out perfectly to make the Goddess of the girl group 2ne1 say yes. And spectacular it is!
With the help of his band mates, Seungri and Daesung as well as 2ne1’s CL and Minzy, they made one of the highest buildings in Seoul show a magnificent light show of Bunnies, Flowers and Butterflies. A romantic song was also played while the words “Marry Me” drops slowly from the very top of the building to the base of it.
Everyone was so amazed at how dedicated GDragon is to this particular girl. He even admitted to one of the reporters that it is Sandara Park all along. Apparently, they had been dating for several years already but decided to see if the fans will accept their relationship.
“We are actually afraid of what the fans might do if we reveal to them that we are already dating. You see what happened with Dong Wook Hyung and Byul Noona. Although they are very much accepted now, there are still many fans who decided to leave se7en hyung because of it.” he explained. When he’s asked how the fans reacted about his proposal without revealing yet that they are dating he answered, “Well, some vips and blackjacks somehow had a hunch about the real score between us. They had always been so open-minded and supportive.”
“I thought she’s not going to say yes, since it’s taking her too long to answer. But I guess, who am I to rush her?” he laughed. “I am just happy that I can finally tell the whole world that she’s mine. These past months had been so hard for the both of us. But now, I can finally tell Tae Hwan to back off.” he jokingly said.
So, finally, the Dragon had succeeded in whisking away his Goddess from the long list of fanboys. There are lots of brokenhearted people because of this proposal yet, they had fully accepted them and expressed their approval of the couple.
In fan cafes and blogs, fans showed how they support the couple. “I knew it! I knew it!”, “Oh GD oppa! You just killed my heart! But I will still support you and 2ne1! Jjang!”, “Ah… cute couple! They look alike though…”.
But the people who GDragon and Sandara Park had specifically thanked during the interview are their undying supporters: APPLERS. “Yes, it has been tough hiding our relationship to them. But they still supported and stood their ground about what they believe in their hearts to be true.” Dara Park added. “You might not know it but we have so many supporters, and they call themselves as APPLERS. They actually have this site called Daragon Hideout. I was completely elated when I heard about it from my friend in the Philippines. So everyday, I’d go there and read their posts in Spazz thread or sometimes read the stories the creative writers come up with with us, Jiyong and I, as main characters. They are amazing! Despite how much they are being viewed as delusional and despite how much people mock them for relating everything they see to DaraGon (That’s us, GDragon interjected), they still did not stop believing that there is something between the two of us. Their faith is so strong, their posts are like vitamins that we, Jiyong and I, just have to take everyday, so we can go on and face whatever it is that comes our way.”
“Yes, in this Spazz Thread that they call, they have this different sort of posts they call “INVESTIGATIONS”. And if you’ll read everyone’s post there you’ll be surprised in how much almost all of it is actually true. Yes, they may be delusional but I can say that their being delusional have basis and I can see that in their posts.”
“So, we thank them from the bottom of our hearts.” Jiyong bowed his ninety degrees bow as he said this. While Dara did after her last remark. “Now, we can finally rejoice with all of you, APPLERS. Kamshamanida!”
