To all the Carats in the Philippines,
I’ve received so many messages asking about hosting Seungcheol’s birthday event, and I truly wish I could celebrate with all of you in person. Unfortunately, I’m not able to send our team to the Philippines this time, but your enthusiasm inspired me to find another way to make it happen.
I’ve teamed up with some local Carats who have generously volunteered to host a special one-day café event on 8 August. We want you to enjoy the same experience as Carats in other countries, so the café will be giving out the exact same birthday freebies as our other events.
As this event is being made possible by our local volunteers, it will be a freebies distribution event only. It won’t be able to hold additional activities such as lucky draws this time, simply because we’re working with a small team. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope you’ll still enjoy celebrating together with fellow Carats.
I’m incredibly grateful to our local team for helping make this possible. For all the event details, please follow @scoups_phil
Thank you for your endless love and support. I hope this event brings you lots of happiness and that you have a truly wonderful time celebrating together. I’m so happy we could make this celebration happen for Carats in the Philippines.
so far JEONGHAN HAD ALREADY FILMED 7 CHALLENGES/TREND in a single day on his discharge day😭 they really made him catch up on EVERYTHINGGG kkkkk
- feeling good
- yaho gyaru (+ jeonghan’s ‘civilian’)
- parapara
- one pump peach
- wax cracking squishy ball (왁뿌볼) ASMR
- making a cake, then blowing out the candles (magic trick)
- earphone magic trick
JEONGHAN’s squadmates during basic military training shared some stories about jeonghan during training, and you can really feel that jeonghan is just such a genuinely kind and wonderful person😭💓 this warmed my heart so much, i’m in tearsㅠㅠ (everything below is just a summary, but it somehow turned out way longer than i expected😭)
- op was in hongdae (june 25) and happened to see an ad congratulating jeonghan on his discharge, which reminded him of jeonghan and made him to share these stories about jeonghan during basic military training. there were so many things he was grateful to jeonghan for, and that there was so much he could learn from jeonghan as a person
- op said people might say that celebrities only show their good side, but op genuinely believes that the jeonghan he saw was his true self. since op spent 24/7 with jeonghan in the same barracks and squad, so he was able to witness many different sides of jeonghan
- their squad had 14 people, so all 14 of them slept in the same room throughout basic training. the funny thing is that, at first, most of them, including op, had no idea who jeonghan was. maybe one or two people recognized him, but they pretended not to
- during introductions, jeonghan introduced himself as a hair designer😭 he was so convincing that op completely believed him and even thought “a hair designer this handsome really exists? his appointments must always be fully booked”😭 looking back now, though, it makes no senseㅋㅋ because jeonghan is WAY too handsome, and his skin was even better than the youngest guy in the room. when op found out how old jeonghan was, he almost fainted😭
- for quite some time, no one in the squad realized that jeonghan was a famous idol, until something happened that revealed it
- there was time jeonghan once said that those days were really fun for him. back then, they simply thought “that handsome hyung has such a great personality and always keeps the atmosphere in the barracks lively. he must just be a genuinely good person” because they didn’t know jeonghan was an idol, they got to know him without any preconceived idea or expectations
- op thought about jeonghan “he is truly, truly an amazing person” op considers himself pretty good at judging people’s character, but he never met anyone as thoughtful and considerate as jeonghan! someone who never tries to show off or seek recognition for the kindness he shows to others
++
someone who was in the same training camp as jeonghan posted about him and its filled with so many good words 🥺
- jh first introduced himself as a hairdresser 😭
- jh got along with almost everyone
- jh would always be so positive
- OP said that jh seemed like someone who loves his members more than his family and himself
- they met after the training camp and jh treated them all to a meal
- so so many more stories 🥺
but my favorite is OP saying everyone liked Jeonghan alot, not because he’s a celebrity, but because he’s a human Yoon Jeonghan 🥺🤍
thank you so much OP for sharing this story about our hannie!
