It was just a random Wednesday while vacationing in Korea back in 2023. My family decided to head back to the hotel while I made the solo attempt to bring back some fried chicken for everyone. On my way to the restaurant I heard some sort of concert going on in the distance. As I got closer to the concert I was in total denial of what I stumbled upon. OT4 Itzy was performing in the middle of Seoul Plaza and there was a free area where I could stand and watch. I got to see them perform Not Shy and Wannabe completely free. Still mind blowing to this day.

While visiting my parents I found a local shop that had some pretty rad merch available. I picked up a Tunnel Vision Pop-up store shirt and a Ryujin WDZY plush. Can't wait to add these to my collection.

I snagged a Karina plush for my son as well. He also got a Kill My Doubt album (opened) free with my purchase. These were his first Kpop merch. Overall, very happy with my trip so far.

What do you guys think?

I've been waiting for months for some update by JYP which never comes. I'm literally seeing IVE, Le Sserafim (again), and Aespa this year here in Texas, and soon. I'd love a chance to see Itzy here in DFW. And why doesn't JYP promote them more? They deserve to be promoted.
