A Fun Experience: Henry Lau

23.07.22



Today is a beautiful Saturday, the weather is good with the sun high up in the sky and me surprisingly in bed not feeling well. My day was going to end like any other, watching Korean shows, listening to music and eating from my room. But the universe couldn't let this go on. 

While I was talking to my sister before she went back to school, I saw a text message from an Instagram account called henrylau5616. For a second I almost thought it was Henry Lau's account but there was no way such an amazing talented musician could send a text to me. But it also happened to be that I had left a comment on Sean Lew's post where he was with Henry Lau, and after I had finally decided to follow Henry Lau as a fan should. This account that I talked to was private. I have screenshots too.

I received the texts around 2:40 pm. I decided to play along. The first thought that came into my mind when I read the first text 'This is ridiculous'. To be honest, if the account was really by the artist, then it is an honour but if not then it was good to have a good laugh. The first text read 'I saw your comments and likes. Thank you for your love and support. I created this account just to...' πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I won't continue but I got to laugh. 

I am a good fan of Henry Lau. For those who are curious, google is there. I have been watching a show called I Live Alone, and he is on it. So, the thought of him texting a fan like me made me feel happy for a moment. Every fan would love to get a text from their favourite artist(s). It will be a good memory though. I could be sad that the account was deleted but I am happy I got to live in the moment. Sometimes we need a little delusion to be happy. 

And if it wasn't Henry Lau which at the moment is the best thought to keep in mind, whoever it was made my day. But it sad though. I will keep the screenshots and laugh from time to time. Keeping a positive mind. And thank you for a story idea. I may write a fanfiction of Henry or just use the idea in another way. There are many fans out there who would relate. 

Being happy doesn't come from achievements only. It can come from anywhere and because of anything. Being a fan of artists and following their work brings happiness to me sometimes. Feeling happy about someone else's achievements and happiness is a trait that I would like to keep learning. I will be able to support my friends and others like that without being jealous of them. 

I am listening to Henry Lau's songs as I write this right now. I haven't listened to many of his songs but I have watched him on shows like Jessi's Showterview and I Live Alone (λ‚˜ 혼자 μ‚°λ‹€, I am currently watching it). 

This will be a good memory.



Why am I a fan?

I don't remember the first place I saw Henry Lau but he has become one of my favourite artists in the world. He is very talented; plays many instruments, he sings and dances well (used to be in Super Junior), he is also a good entertainer. I like him the most when he plays a violin. I once wanted to learn to play a violin. It is my favourite instrument. I will learn it when I do get the chance. 

⚠ I wrote this just to share the experience. It is just for fun.
