The Kpop Otaku's Dream

Jaesuk begins explaining the rules of the game.

"After picking a partner, one person holds the other and then you place the ice on top. So whoever can hold the most ice, we'll decide the winner that way"

The first two to battle it out will be su-ro x yoona vs dylan x hyori.

Jongshin decides to pester hyori "In this stateshe (hyori) is already like seven ice blocks!"

In response, Hyori decides to defend our chances, "Oppa, since Yoona is tall her weight can be quite heavy too."

She walks over and decides to scout the competition. Putting her ear near Yoona, she waits for her to reveal the magical figure.

Yoona obliges and says something softly, I can barely pick it up but I do hear that its forty something.

Hyori swaggers over with a big defeated smile and just says "Ah she's heavier than I thought, this is nothing! You can't reveal an idol's weight!"

Jaesuk asks, "Then Hyori, can you reveal yours?"

"You know already, it was revealved on the Sukmodo episode" She laughs.

Jaesuk then turns to Daesuk, ""How much was it?"

"Wasn't it 60 something?"

Hyori gets appalled and shouts "What! It was 53 kg 53!"

We then get into our starting positions. Hyori's hair is hanging loose so she sweeps it behind her ears, as I begin to lift her into a princess carry.

Looking at her face up close, I notice how simple her makeup is. It really has that honest warm alluring charm. Her prominent features and delicate lips are really a work of art. While she is not beautiful in a flower like manner, she is still beautiful nonetheless.

Swiftly she is lifted up with one hand on her rib cage and the other supporting her legs.

One by one the team members begin packing ice blocks that are about 20 cm in length and 5 cm in width on to a blanket that is places on hyori and yoona's laps.

After 5 blocks are places, Jaesuk decides to conduct an interview.

"If you were you were to describe your partner's weight right now what would it be"

Su-ro goes first, "It feels like white cotton"

He then asks me the same question and I answer, "Uhmm like three bags of potatoes?"

Hyori hits me and laughs, "Stop comparing me to potatoes!"

They pack a few more till its 8 in total and Su-ro and I are both beginning to waver.

Jaesuk asks once more, "If you were to describe their weight now?"

Su-ro answers immediately, "Like a white goose feather"

Hyori is barely hanging on to me right now with her hands wrapped around my neck when Jaesuk questions me again, so in my panic I respond hurriedly, "I don't know I don't know! I can't hear anything right now!"

Hyori seems to be having the time of her life as she is laughing hysterically at my torment.

After they pack one more on, I begin tittering and begin my slow descent to earth. The limitations finally took it's toll.

'It was an unfair competition to begin with!'

"Yoona, Su-ro team. Wins!"

The results of the next two matches equal a win for the dumb and dumber duo of Jaesuk and Daesung over Jongshin and Jungkook and another win for team Hyori as I and Yejin beat yoona and Chunhee, mostly because chunhee drops all the Ice after 20 seconds.

Thus completing the Hyori team comeback with a score of 2-1!

We then head back to the Home to finally begin making the molases pastries.

Once back, the crew has set up all the necessary equipment including a cannon like object which is apparently called a Poprice Maker.

I turn to Yoona has now changed into a check shirt and white winter padded winter jacket, who appears as lost as I am, "Yoona-ssi, do you know how what this is?"

"I've only seen it.."

"Where?"

Shyly she answers, "On Tv"

"Me too, I've never seen one in real life."

Jungkook then begins explaining how to use it. I won't bore you with the details but basically its like a pressure cooker meets rotasary for rice. And when you release the pressure it happens all at once, it's quite the spectacle to find the entire courtyard filled in smoke like you are on a concert stage.

After the excitement and novelty is worn down, Cooking duties is once more delegated to various parties.

Jong kook, Yejin and Chunhee will go to the market, Yoona and Daesung will be picking vegetables and the rest will do what needs to be done.

Once the various groups leave, Hyori lays down on the mattress with a home owner's posture in their living room. The older guys too have suddenly vanished, leaving me alone to handle everything.

'This is bullying!'

I begin by starting with the simplest task first, lighting the fire. All the while I can hear hyori reading horoscopes from a newspaper she got somewhere.

I make my way over to hear and lean in, "What does my horoscope say?"

A little excited she asks, "What's your star sign?"

"Capricorn"

"She then begins reading, 'the year begins with a real burst of energy, confidence, and power, dear Capricorn.'"

'Well thats not wrong so far'

" ' Money matters are especially strong this year. A year-long trend towards greater flow of personal income is in your forecast, but do be aware that the flow can just as easily come in and go out if you're not careful!' "

'Hmmm interesting'

" 'A spunky period for your love life, however, occurs from June 6-July 5, when your charm is super and romance fairly sizzles. Partnered Capricorns will also be having a good time–it's a fabulous opportunity period for scheduling a romantic getaway' "

'I will have to keep that in mind maybe Irene will be free'

"Seems like my 2009 will be pretty good"

"I'm jealous" She pouts, "Mine was that I have to be wary of scammers and stay in doors!"

"No way ? Seriously?"

"Yeah look" She hands me the paper and I see that it's actually true.

Thinking about it, she does get into a bit of trouble in the near future. But maybe I can help her with that?
