I am not sure if I can finish my Sydney posts before our Chongqing trip lolxx...
It may seemed I am flying so often, looked so rich but broke in reality. Let's continue with our concert day.
03/07/2025
Gf preparing to camp for Daesung's concert tix, while I going to the concert venue to buy my Day-G bong.
Both of us trying to conserve energy as much as possible. Had simple breakfast at home.
Arrived Qudos Bank Arena at around 12pm, there was absolutely no queue and I had to find the entrance into the merch section.
Completely indoor, the snake queue was moving fast.
They didn't accept cash and YouTrip card didn't work, I threw my sub-card back to old man, no more cards with me. Then suddenly I remembered the stupid sub-card was still in my Apple Pay, so paid, at last.
Everything was triple the price of Korea, so I could only buy the bong and cradle, which was already about S$150.
I took it as a "fast track charge" as I was out for this pic in 15mins. I had read ppl in asian countries queuing in wee mornings for more than 4 or 5hours to get their merch. Thank god for having mercy on me.
The cyclone was gone for good, the sky was blue.
Took a few happy pics, took some time, until the mother hen msg and asked where I was lolxx...
Vape so expensive that I had to suck myself with the addiction.
Walking pass a tobacco shop near the Airbnb.
Day-G bong was prettier than I thought. The clear acrylic was clear like glass with silver specks, the white, yellow and black acrylic was flawless.
Gf successfully gotten her Daesung concert tix too.
Trying my best to clear the box of cut fruits. Gf didn't want any, had to curb my urge of forcing fruits down her throat, she was so fussy lolxx...
As I was munching fruits, I suddenly saw IKEA far far away haahaahaa...
We headed out about 2pm for lunch. Back to Olympic Park Station as gf saw online a Korean cafe here.
Here we were at Plate Cafe.
Starting off with coffee fix.
We had prawn pasta which was like our dried prawn noodles, super duper savory delicious.
It was so impressive that my gf came back for breakfast the next day.
It was a beautiful day.
Entered the concert venue. Our VIP pass with lanyard 😭😭
I couldn't believe this was happening...
Interior of Qudos Bank Arena.
VVIP and VIP seats filling up for sound check and there's so much to see. 80% of the audience were chinese (can be Korean/Japanese/Indonesia, can't tell specifically). My gf started talking to a local sitting next to her. Didn't know she was such a extrovert lolxx...
Pink astronaut must be a introvert.
Borrow someone's Labubu.
Was trying not to get too excited in case I faint!
He walked onto stage for sound check, looked very unreal, like a prince from fairytale. Tears rolled down uncontrollably, finally saw the person I love so much.
It was then a long wait for the actual concert to start, but I never felt bored.
Tears welled in my eyes the entire time, 2hrs felt like 5mins, it was not enough but had to come to an end.
After seeing him in real made me love him even more, I am going crazy.
He was so good so good, the stage was his playground.
Some food kiosks were still opened. The price was scary.
Back home at 11+pm, we had cup noodles with veg and egg, also I continued with my cut fruits.
Super satisfying.
Next day, my beloved gf had to fly back to Singapore, while I continued my adventure in Sydney, solo.
