This is a photo of me and Ryu Seung Beom, 류승범, a famous actor in Korea. I had no idea who he was until another of Eunmi’s friends at the party mentioned him. He was a really nice guy and very polite. Recently, Ryu Seung-Beom was cast for the movie “29 Years” with Korean actress Kim Ah-joong.

This party was a small get-together with some of Eunmi’s friends, and friends of theirs. Lots of models. Some of the girls must’ve been over 6′ tall. Everybody was dressed down a little bit, but trendy (particular emphasis on trendy). It seemed like everyone there had their own unique style.

I don’t know if Belvedere Vodka sponsored the event, but that’s all they served and there wasn’t any sort of cost associated with the event unless you bought the host Fhifan’s book, Slow Recipe.

It was a rare occasion in that there wasn’t a single other foreigner present at this party.

This is Lee Berre,이베르, a designer on the left, me, Eunmi, and Ashley. Lee Berre is a prominent architect in Korea.

This is Jimin, 지민, Eunmi’s best friend from high school. Her nickname is 쥐, which means “mouse” in Korean. She was really nice and seemed to love her humongous camera. I named this picture “mouse,” so, if you Google “mouse,” this photo might come up. Ha ha.

This is me, Fhifan, and Eunmi. He was the host of the party. Fhifan is Korean, but was born in Japan, just finishing his book titled, Slow Recipe. His book is about his personal journeys and development into modeling. He is a fashion model in Korea and Japan, as well as a DJ, and now an author.

This is me and Eunmi with “Mouse’s” boyfriend, Kim Won Sun, 김원선, a famous graphic designer in Korea. Also a really nice guy. Basically, everyone I met at this party was really nice. I’m trying to use bigger and fancier words than “really,” “nice,” and “very,” but it’s a  struggle for me. English, after all, is a second language for me.

This is Eunmi with her friend Varkjiwon,박지원. He is some sort of stylist or designer, and works with “Mouse’s” boyfriend.

Exterior of the venue called onFriday in Gangnam. Everyone migrated outside since it was such a nice night out and the weather continued to cooperate.

DJ at the party. Solid house music.
