[fan account] USA Cloud on the street: A whole “Lotte” Rain at Lotte Star Avenue. (7/7/2013)

CloudUSAer Michele DeMarco is in Seoul at present to soak up the culture and support Sergeant Jung JiHoon, whose discharge from the RoK Army is upon us (July 10). She went on the hunt for Rain at Star Avenue today, and let’s just say it was a good thing she “took an umbrella.” 😛 ^@@^

And then I found what I came for…. I found Rain.
When you lightly pressed your hand into his hand print, there was a monitor directly above the display that played a message from Rain. I was unable to hear the message, but I watched it a few times, just to see him and try to grab a couple of pictures.
Perhaps the sweetest thing about Star Avenue is the wall of stars. Thousands of them hanging on the wall, each with a wish written upon them. You choose the star you would like to wish upon and I probably missed the point of the whole thing because I did not make a wish for something for myself which is probably what you should do. No, my message was to simply wish Rain happiness, success and love. I signed it, and hung it on the wall. So fangirly, right? Well, let me tell you that two ahjummas waiting behind me both wished upon Rain too! I think Rain has the natural ability to ignite the fangirl in anyone who is in touch with their inner fangirl, no matter how young or old! Here is my star wish hanging upon the Star Avenue wall for forever more…..♥
Part of the fun of this were the young guys working the area who helped procure the star wishes. Along with the star came this coupon that you had to fill out (if you wanted) and drop into a box for a drawing. I don’t know what you win if your coupon is chosen but I did put in a request to the young man there that should my coupon be drawn, I am requesting dinner with Rain. He said he that would be a good prize! I think our language barrier prevented him from truly explaining what a winning coupon would beget! If I win, I will let you know!
