theo’s fromm 💌
hey everyone
i just finished everything i had to do and sat down in the massage chair
i finished work early today
around 8, i think
so
all of a sudden, i really wanted to go to a jjimjilbang
🧩 did you go to the sauna?
wow
what the
how did you know
🧩 hyung, we ran into each other at the sauna earlier
there were literally only middle-aged men and women there
🧩 did you go alone??
of course i went alone
who else would i go with
🧩 did you go to the jjimjilbang too after the sauna?
i actually went to the jjimjilbang
i’d had a packed schedule since this morning
and i was hungry
so i just ate there
but today’s big event was
i got a full-body scrub for the first time ever
🧩 how was it?
it felt like all my skin was being peeled off
🧩 did a lot of dead skin come off??
surprisingly, not really
🧩 was it a man who scrubbed you?
who else would it be, a woman?
so
honestly
i was a little disappointed
i thought i’d feel super refreshed afterward
but it just
hurt a little
🧩 how much did you pay?
i wanted to get a massage too
but they said it was too late, so i couldn’t
i just got the scrub
🧩 how much was it?
22,000 won
it is kinda expensive
maybe it’s because i’m in seoul
🧩 did you make small talk with the guy?
nope
he just kept going on and on about how
“aren’t you way too skinny?”
“you should gain some weight”
“your waist is like a woman’s”
he just kept saying stuff like that
🧩 did you say anything back?
what was i supposed to say to that
ha! ha! ha!
that’s what i did
after that
i showered
and ate
🧩 didn’t you tell him you were an idol?
i never tell people i’m an idol when i go places
i just say i’m a college student
and that i’m really good at studying
i tell them i go to seoul national university
🧩 what did you say your major was?
i didn’t tell him that
i just said i go to seoul national university
and that i’m insanely good at studying
🧩 did he believe you??
i honestly have no idea either
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
(he sent a photo)
for dinner today
i had shrimp ramyeon and chicken skewers
🧩 that’s persimmon vinegar, right?
it’s iced tea
i wanted to eat something more like an actual meal
but it was too late
and those were pretty much the only options
so i just had ramyeon
🧩 how much was all that?
12,000 won
it is pretty expensive
maybe it’s because i’m in seoul
after eating
i spent a ton of time in the jjimjilbang
wow, seriously, in my entire life
i don’t think i’ve ever
sweated this much
🧩 how long were you in there ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
there were two rooms
but both of them were hotter than i expected
one was a fire kiln room
you know, the kind where
it feels like you got punched right in the solar plexus
the other one
i was expecting it to be warm like a salt room
but that one was hot too
there was no in-between
so i was like
let's see how long i can last
and stayed for 30 minutes
my whole body was completely soaked
i'd never sweated that much in my life before
i was lying down at the very back
and these elementary school kids kept coming in and out
honestly, i was grateful
it was so refreshing
every time they opened the door for a second
it felt like a gift from god or something
🧩 did you talk to the elementary school kids?? ㅋㅎㅋ
honestly
i genuinely wanted to join in on their conversation
but there were other people around
so i held back
whenever the kids came in, they'd whisper to each other like crazy
you know how you can still hear everything, right?
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
🧩 what were they talking about?
oh, nothing special, really
i was just thinking
if it were only me and the kids there
i'd start talking to them like
“hey, what's up? ^^”
🧩 what would you say to them?
“do you guys play roblox?”
🧩 oh, that's a good opener
right?
“have you guys tried that asmr map on roblox?”
and then i'd ask them things like
“are you studying hard?”
“what do you wanna be when you grow up?”
stuff like that
