STARFISHPH

Donghae shared what he did on his birthday today .. 🐯: Today, I woke up, did a little house cleaning, and then I worked out. 🐯: After my birthday workout, I went to my mother’s house and ate seaweed soup with my older brother, my sister-in-law, and my mother. My mother was planning to make lots of different things for me. But personally, I thought that going to the supermarket and preparing everything might be a little tiring for her, so I told her, “You don’t have to cook. You don’t need to make anything for me. You really don’t have to.” But she told me, “That’s not something you can skip on your birthday. When I gave birth to you, I ate seaweed soup, so since it’s your birthday, I really want to make seaweed soup for you.” She said that she really wanted to make it for me. So, yes, I ate seaweed soup this morning after finishing my workout. 🐯: And then, I went shopping for a jacket, which I talked about the day before yesterday. I went shopping for a jacket, yes, just one. This one. Since the weather is getting colder, I bought a jacket. I’m not really the type of person who shops a lot, but I do enjoy buying something from a brand I like. There’s something fun about picking up a piece from a brand I love, so since the weather was cold today, I bought a jacket. I really like this brand, and when I went there, they had so many more things! So I spent some time thinking about what to get. They had pretty furry hats, pretty bags, and lots of nice jackets. I had to resist the temptation! The bags were so pretty that I really wanted to buy one, too. And they also had these reversible jackets. I kept thinking, “Oh, this one is pretty, too!” But in the end, I bought just the one item I had originally planned to get, and then I left. You have to exercise restraint when you go shopping. Otherwise, you can end up buying too many things. (😆😭) They were recommending so many different items to me, too. Especially since the weather is getting colder, I thought the furry hats would look really nice for winter. I haven’t really bought many bags when shopping, but the bags were so cute and pretty, too! And the colors were so nice. It’s autumn now, right? There was this pretty brown bag, an autumn brown color, made of suede. It was so pretty that I kept looking at it. But then I thought, “Ah, I need to control myself!” So I bought just one jacket and left. 🐯: After that, you know my friend from New Zealand? She’s a friend from my hometown, Mokpo. She came up to Seoul today, and our schedules matched. She’s returning to New Zealand tomorrow, and I really wanted to see her babies. I went to see the kids. I went all the way to Incheon. I really love babies and kids, you know, so I missed them and wanted to see them. I had such a fun time talking and playing with them, and they’ve grown so much already! I thought that the next time they come back, they might not want to hang out with me anymore. You know how kids, once they grow up, start preferring to spend time with their own friends? I was exactly the same at that age. Hanging out with my friends was the most fun thing to do. So, I thought that by the next time I see them, they might not really enjoy spending time with me like this anymore. That’s why I went to see them. 🐯: That was how I spent my birthday today. I was so grateful, especially because so many of you wished me a happy birthday. I was able to spend such a happy time during this special birthday… this special birthday moment. That’s all for today’s birthday story. It’s already a new day here in Korea, but for those of you who are overseas… It’s still my birthday for some of you, right? It’s the 15th! Happy, happy, happy birthday to you! Please be careful not to catch a cold. Everyone, I’ll go home, take a shower, and go to sleep. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much, and I love you. I’ll get going now. I’ll do another live again sometime. Good night!
