[article] CNN's Travel site on GD's parents pension -- repost
K-Pop superstar takes logical next step, builds hotel for fans, gives it to his parents
New "G-Dragon hotel" has 11 suites; private room reserved for the boy band leader
By Frances Cha 23 November, 2012
Thousands of fans fly in to South Korea to squeal and go nuts at K-Pop concerts every year. Now, some of them can stay at a K-Pop star's new "pension" hotel, complete with a chance to see their favorite pop star's family and dog while they do it.
Financed by K-Pop boy band Big Bang leader G-Dragon and operated by his family, the new Dolce Vita Pension in Pocheon, Korea has been the rage in media, blogs and online portals since it opened last week. ("Pensions" are small boutique hotels usually located in the Korean countryside.)
Korea's edgiest pop star and fashion darling didn't go too far for inspiration for the name of his family's new enterprise (he has "Vita Dolce" tattooed on his arms). He helped his mother decorate the 11-suite hotel.
The result is an funky mix of street art, pop art and high fashion, with fan-oriented details such as miniature figurines of Big Bang and suites named for Big Bang songs.
The "Crayon" room, named after the title song of G-Dragon's last album, is reserved for the pop star and his friends only, and is not available to guests.
A family affair
“G-Dragon’s family originally bought the land thinking they would build a vacation home for G-Dragon to come rest occasionally,” said hotel manager Eun-mae Huh.
“Two of his mother’s friends run pension hotels in the area, which is where the idea for this pension hotel came from.”
G-Dragon put up approximately ₩1 billion (US$920,000) to finance the hotel as a gift to his parents. His father, Young-hwan Kwon, runs the hotel and currently lives on the premises with G-Dragon’s dog, Gaho.
“G-Dragon came to stay with Taeyang recently, and 2NE1 is also supposed to come soon,” said Huh.
Although it only opened last week, bookings are already pouring in from fans including those from Japan, says the hotel manager.
As one of Korea's biggest boy bands with the most albums sold in the country in the first half of 2012, Big Bang's overseas following has been growing rapidly -- they took home the title of “Best Worldwide Act” at the MTV Europe Music Awards in 2011.
Presumably in order to minimize liability, and to keep things from becoming too crazy, G-Dragon's father said in an interview with Enews that the hotel will not be receiving guests under the age of 19.
"It's not a place for teenage fans to come, and we won't be receiving them even if they come with their parents" said Kwon in the interview. "It's not meant to be a commercial enterprise but just a quiet place for guests to stay."
Rates start at ₩250,000 (double occupancy).

Big Bang G-Dragon purchases a pension (guest house) for his parents
G-Dragon, the leader of Big Bang, has attracted public attention by buying a room-and-board guest house, commonly called by the French name pension in Korea, for his parents.
The pension’s website will be online soon, and the establishment is set to open officially on December 5, G-Dragon’s father, Kwon Young Hwan, is listed as the proprietor of the establishment though both parents, who are currently staying at the pension, will operate the business together.
The value of the property is officially registered as 300 million won, bit according to real estate experts, its selling price is between 500 and 600 million won.
A spokesperson for the business says, “Though the pension has not yet opened officially, many fans of Big Bang have already visited and stayed overnight. We are receiving a lot of calls for reservations. G-Dragon has visited the pension twice. Once in October, he stayed at the pension before he left on an overseas concert tour. Except for Taeyang, none of the other members of Big Bang have visited the place. The other members and the YG Entertainment family will visit after the opening.”
The website gives information about the rooms, which are named after some of Big Bang’s numbers, including “VIP,” “Heaven,” “Day By Day,” “Blue,” and “Crayon.” Potential Japanese visitors will be pleased to find that the information about the pension is given in their own language as well.
G-Dragon shows special affection for the room named “Crayon.” The spokesperson says, “The overall interior design was done by G-Dragon’s mother, but ‘Crayon’ is a room that G-Dragon decorated himself with special props. He stayed in the room for a while, and it is not to be rented out for the time being.”
Fans of G-Dragon will get a charge out of seeing a picture of his pet dog, Gaho, on the top page of the website.

it's been awhile since I've last posted! :)) I'll try to update and make use of this and my planner more! :))
Last night (Sunday, Nov 25) was a twitter party with a newly discovered music! It started with Young Sky's tweet about Cloud 9's new uploaded music on YouTube, Feel Good! And I ended up downloading a copy of the song and followed the Japan-based members on Twitter! Never thought that Eddie Kim @cloud9ekim will reply to my tweets!^^ Then I discovered that they have a Facebook page too (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Teamcloudnine9/458372224197430) and they posted some of their pics while on show or just doing anything that they do on normal days!^^
And the twitter party never stops when Peter of One Way & Team One Sound just replied to a good morning tweet! :)))
It's a manic Monday and the long weekend is totally over, but I know I'll get back to work later tonight with a big smile and happy thoughts in mind! :))
Blessed day to all! :))

random#3 -- camaraderie
3:07 AM 8/7/2012
It was raining very hard all day and floods everywhere! I decided to stay at the office for no reason at all (or... I really do have one ^^), thinking that I've informed my parents that I might not be going home by Tuesday night (since... I MIGHT render RDOT, which I eventually did) and I know that they are safe at home, and they'll probably tell me to stay wherever I am and avoid all routes going home because of the flood!
And in this unfortunate event, my teammates and I with other agents from our account, were lucky enough to experience the so-called relief goods-slash-feeding program of our beloved company :)) Least that I expect, I'd be with this people, considering we are from different teams, of different views and tenures!
It was fun, to get a chance to mingle with them and converse with them! It's like I've open a door to better improve my social abilites, which I know from my early childhood til the adult life, has been a huge struggle for such an introvert, independent, only-child girl like me!
***now, when we pass by each other, there's no awkward or snobbish moments, but at least you could give a smile without hesitations.. though the awkward times, we'll never be absent***

I guess we can't really complain with what see on our Twitter timeline...
since we decided to follow whoever owns the account or whatever group/fan page may it be!
so deal with what you see and read! anyway, the "unfollow" button is always available! =))
random#1
you didn't know who that person was and you don't care even if you bump into each other as often as possible!
not until...
you noticed! =)
you look forward to the times that you get a chance of seeing that person.. to get a glimpse of what he looks like on that day! and it makes you smile and feel stress-free when you see him pass by!^^

I imagined creating a website to express myself, see the patterns of my interests, and in time, find the purpose of my existence. The last time I had a website was for a project in one of my computer-related subject way back in college.
Luckily, I was able to find this site, I could treat it as my haven, a place where I could express my thoughts, pour in my emotions, type in words or anything that I could think of, post links or pictures that would be represent me!^^
trial and error the start of new things; mistakes are inevitable but there's always a chance to redeem yourself; a never-ending battle for self-improvement and development to be a better person; and hopefully define the purpose of my existence in this lifetime! :))
