I found out about it last year hehe! Through Coco Rocha cause she was invited to do a PINK campaign although she's not an angel. Her best friend Behati is an angel and they're both doing this campaign together! I "bluffed" my way through cause in the subscription/registration you can't register unless you have an American address so yeah, I just googled some random New York? Or was is Californian, postal codes hahaha! :p
P/s: I've been lying to myself for so long.. I can finally admit to myself that I really didn't see Hyori as my rolemodel. To be honest there's nothing about her that I could connect with and look up to in my life cause I really don't know any of her contributions to society, etc? :( And like I wasn't 100% excited ALL the time when there was news of Hyori. It's not like with Candice Swanepoel or like Coco Rocha, I look up to her so much and know so much I even submitted an expository essay about her and how learning from her helped me through my struggles. It was the only essay I ever got an A for.
Now that I've come to terms with this truth, part of the real reason I "idolized" Hyori was because in one of the interviews with SS501, Hyun Joong said his ideal type was Hyori. Back then I was a super fan girl(lol *hides face*) so I Googled and I was like "Hey she's really not bad, big boobs, curvy yet skinny, very sexy, I want to look like that" And I guess that's when I started to to fangirl over her but I really don't know anything cause she pretty much mia at that time and there wasn't much news in English (from allkpop) about her so... :0 Yeah u get the drift now.
Where as for Candice, at least for a start, she's was a ballet dancer and it's already become the reason behind my motivation during ballet! :D And also how she's learnt to be so independent living all on her own despite coming from a very sheltered upbringing in a dairy farm.
Looking back to my last post to end 2009, I wrote in the list:
"The year I decided on the spot who's my rolemodel in life and not feel guilty, and she's Lee Hyori 이효리.(Somehow I always feel guilty about my rolemodel, I guess it's cause I wasn't sure in the past. Ok, and one more thing, when I say rolemodel in life I don't mean like learn from her style or whatever, I mean like she's confident so I should learn from that. I know there are tons of people out there who are also confident, but they just don't inspire me. :S )"
As I was writing this I felt like i was writing it down to convince myself, like come on girl, cause she's confident?? Lame, lame, LAME. That is too vague, not strong enough a connection. What is strong is something like how I look up to Coco and Candice. Like I mentioned earlier I even wrote an expository essay about Coco inspiring me and got and A for it although it's a low A hahaha! But Mdm Pamela praised me for it, YAY! Thanks Coco!
And I'm also starting to regret a little, about buying my SHINee albums and Hyori albums... :0 Never thought that in 3 months I'd be reverting back to an English Pop listener haha! I told Iggy recently that I'm jumping 'ship' back to listening to English songs :p Anyway, the number of kpop bands are increasing so much that it's kinda turn off.
