It's been a while since I have posted in tumblr but here's just a summary of what I've been to this last February 22. 

Teen Top High Kick in Seoul was held last February 22 and 23 in the Olympic Park, Olympic Hall. Before I went to watch the concert, I first stopped by at Dani's to have lunch. It was a really long and tiring trip from my place going to Seoul, then from Seoul to Anyang, and then back again in Seoul. Phew. But it was worth it since I got to visit Dani's again before I go back to my country by next month. I also got to take pictures with my artwork displayed in the cafe and with Niel's mom again. >///< Traveling back to Seoul was really long and I was late for the concert. I should have been the 160th person to enter the stadium and have taken a good spot! T^T Well anyways, I am still near the stage and have seen Teen Top in a close distance. >///<

(Just a few shots... ^^)

I'll be posting a detailed account soon about the cafe and the concert.

Last October 2, I went to visit Cafe Dani for the first time in my long stay here in Korea. I have written a blog post on it. You can read it here.

It was just a few days ago when I saw some pictures again of Cafe Dani in some Korean blogs in Naver. I was really happy when I saw my fanart of Niel displayed in the cafe!

Can you find my fanart???

(Pictures taken from Naver blog. Credited as tagged.)

Here's my work by the way. 

It's been a long time since I painted again so this one's not that good T^T I was really busy that time but still I managed to finish this so I can give something when I visit Dani's. It's one of my goals as a Teen Top fan for my fanarts to be displayed in Niel's cafe. ^____________________________________________^

(Work in progress.)

Tadaaaaaaaaaaa! Here are the finished products! The big Niel fanart is for Niel while the smaller ones for Teen Top. I gave the Niel fanart personally to Niel's mom when I visited Cafe Dani. It was one of the most memorable experiences I had so far as a Teen Top fan... to be able to meet their mom!

Here's a picture of us right after I gave my fanart!

... While I made the smaller ones for Teen Top. I personally gave them their "giyomi" fanarts during the fansigning event in Daegu last October 3.

Oh right! Have you watched Teen Top's first Google+ hangout event? I was there too! Hihihihihi~~~ During the talent show portion, I showed some fanarts I made in relation to the famous "Giyomi" song's lyrics. If you could recognize, I made the same drawings again using Adobe Photoshop.

Also I slipped a small photo of our country's flag at the bottom left corner of the frames. There's also this angel logo of an international Teen Top fanbase I'm managing with some Philippine angel friends. Please join us here at: https://www.facebook.com/1004PHTEENTOP

It's one of those days I've been waiting for... to be able to visit Teen Top's Niel cafe, Dani cafe. The cafe is located in Anyang, which is Niel's hometown too. But I guess it's not really his hometown from what I heard from Teen Top's interviews. 

2nd of October was actually the last day of the career fair. Me and my friends decided to finish early with our interviews in the fair to be able to go to more places in Seoul. We finished around lunchtime but instead of eating first, we looked around the Gangnam area. I think it was around 3 when we decided to split up to be able to go to places we want to go to. Some of my friends are not actually into KPOP so they just went sightseeing around Seoul. My other friend is actually a SONE and an SM Ent fan so she went to SM. Oh! We actually went to SM last night before going to TOP Media but we mistakenly arrived at the old SM building. T^T As for me, well I'm Teen Top's Angel so I should be off then to Teen Top's haha! Well...time to go to Dani's!

From Gangnam, I went to Anyang. I think the trip was about an hour and a half. I just took the subway since it's cheaper and faster but I think I got confused with the transfers in the subway. Oh well, Seoul subway is quite confusing, haha! 

(Finally arrived Anyang station! Now off to Dani's!)

(Here's another picture of Anyang station. Quite a busy area.)

Anyang station is quite big. But you can just follow the signs in the subway to be able to reach your destination. Oh right! See those stairs or escalators in the picture. Once you got off the escalators, just walk straight and you'll be able to see stairs again going to the underground mall. I decided to pass through the underground mall since it'll be more fun while window-shopping. Clothes and accessories there were really cheap! 

Once you're out the underground mall, just a few minutes away from the cafe. From there, I think I just walked until the intersection and crossed the street. Then I went straight when I almost passed Dani cafe, haha! 

(Thanks to that LED sign that says 카페다니, which means Cafe Dani, I found the place!)

I was really happy when I arrived Dani's. To my surprise, the cafe looked really big. I took my time first to take some pictures outside before going in. 

Here are some pictures of Dani's:

(Looks big, right? So proud of our coffee prince! :))

(The cafe is actually in the 2nd and 3rd floor of the building. It's quite narrow but long.)

(Entrance to Dani cafe. There's the menu over there and a small sign that says Niel's not in T^T)

Let's not waste any time...Let's go inside! :)

You'll be able to see this first once you're in. It's the stairway up to Dani's on the left. Let's go up!

Here are some of Niel fanarts by the stairs. There are already many of these even before entering the cafe. Here are more pictures:

This time it's their debut album! Our babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They look so young here!

Next we have their NO.1's poster with Niel's sign and message on it! Let's have a closer look!

"맛있게 드세요~!" This means to eat well! Most Koreans say this when they ask others to eat or to enjoy their food.

Now let's enter Dani's. >//////////////////////////<

You'll be able to see this huge Niel picture once you opened the door. Or maybe even before going in since it's a glass door. Oooops! My bad! Haha! This is actually one of my favorite Niel pictures.

Here we have the 2nd floor of the cafe. It was a dream come true to be able to go here huhuhuhuhuhuhu! Once I got in, I searched first for Niel's mom but she wasn't there when I arrived T^T. Oh well, let's order something first since I haven't eaten anything yet for lunch! ><

There were 3 girls taking care of the cafe that time. They were really kind and even spoke slowly for me since they thought I'm not Korean haha. After ordering food, they gave me this. Well most cafes and restaurants use this anyway haha.

Let's explore the cafe while waiting for the food!

Here's the corner for writing messages to Niel.

The message notebooks are this many already! Will Niel be able to read this all?!

This actually caught my attention. It's a small box with some tape in it. The tape has designs about Teen Top and Angels. Really cute and thoughtful of this Angel! There's her message too in the box.

More pictures of gifts from Angels here:

I think this is a message from a fan who went to Teen Top's concert.

(Happy Birthday, Daniel!)

And here we have some cute cakes and gifts for Niel! Let's take a closer look!

I bet these aren't edible, right! Haha!

Our one and only Ahn Daniel!

Cake for Niel's 20th birthday!

Another birthday cake here!

Shoes for our coffee prince?! Haha! And look at those Niel chibi's! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!

I've always wanted to make one of these. 

These are really cute! Niel from the Clap era up until the Crazy era.

There's another one over there! Can you guess from what era is that?

That's just me! Excuse me~~~ :)

Let's go up the third floor!

You can see this awesome Niel fanart before going up the third floor.

Here's Dani cafe's 3rd floor. More tables and there are these cubicles on the right side. I think these are made for the students so they can study peacefully while staying at Dani's.

There's also this stand for Teen Top's albums and for more fanarts.

Only album in the stand with Teen Top's signature. 나랑 사귈래?

Teen Top's cd from their NO.1 album. I think this was given as a gift for their 1000 days.

Not a cd, but a plate I think. This looks awesome!

More pictures of Niel, together with some gifts from fans.

Just a closer shot.

More gifts.

Really good! A cross-stitch portrait of Niel. Our Supa Luv!

Those eyes and lips...

Angels are really creative and talented! This one is great! A pencil or a charcoal sketch of Niel.

This is the cutest thing I've seen in the cafe!!! WE LOVE NIEL AND NIEL'S MOM!

Dedicated for the Rocking days.

Teen Top's signature. I want to get one of these ><

After taking pictures, I went downstairs to wait for my food. I actually came by myself in the cafe so I don't know where to sit, maybe on a bigger or a smaller table. Hahaha! So much for my worries! I just sat on the farthest end of the cafe. That's when I realized I was sitting on the same spot when Niel and the other members visited the cafe last time! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~~~

Haven't eaten anything yet so here's for lunch!

Here's Dani's famous honey bread and caramel macchiato >///<

Closer shot of Dani's honey bread... with Niel's lips on it haha!

Can't. Eat. Those ><

NYAM. NYAM. NYAM. 

Excuse me! Just hungry hihi!~~~

Just a shot from my seat.

And oh! Around this time when Niel's mom came in the cafe. My heart suddenly beat so fast! It's like Niel came out from those doors. I was so nervous that time when Niel's mom appeared! I was preparing my gift and was about to leave that time when she came in! I was so happy she was there and that I could meet her too! 

My gift was actually a Niel painting I made.

It's not as good as the other fanarts I've seen around the cafe but I did my best to make this! 

I actually used this picture of Niel as a reference but it didn't look similar as my painting. Well, it has been a long time since I painted haha. Need to practice again! Oh! This is actually my favorite picture of Niel haha!

By the way, I also included a picture of my country's flag and a logo of a Teen Top fanclub in Philippines. Well, I'm also an admin there, just I help with some things haha!

To be honest, I really want Teen Top to know about us, Philippine Angels. KPOP is actually pretty famous in our country but I don't know how many Teen Top fans are there since I've been staying here in Korea for years already.

I also wrote a short message to our coffee prince at the back of the frame.

I finished my food even before Niel's mom came in. I was finding a perfect time to go to the counter to give back the dishes and also my gift. Niel's mom was actually busy managing the counter and making some patbingsoo. I can ever hear her voice from my seat. She is actually the same as when I am watching her in Mamma Mia, a TV show where she guested in with Niel for a couple of episodes.

I was really nervous when I got up and walked to the counter. She actually looked at me first and said "Thank you!" with a smile while receiving the tray of dishes. I answered back in Korean saying 잘 먹었습니다, which means I enjoyed the food. Then I told her that I have a gift for Niel. She said no need for gifts but she then shyly received the gift and asked me if I drew it. I also told her I came from the Philippines and a huge Teen Top fan. Then I just asked her if I can take a picture with her. I was talking with her in Korean but I stuttered a lot since I'm really nervous that time. She just told me to wait for a while to prepare some things in the kitchen. She was really busy and didn't even bother to take off her apron for the picture, haha. She's really kind and humble and I can see how Niel is the same. 

Really grateful to her to raise such a nice and humble Ahn Daniel.

INDEED, WE LOVE NIEL'S MOM!!!

One of the pictures I will treasure! I hope I'll be taking some with Teen Top soon!!! Well that seems impossible haha!

Before leaving the cafe, you should have one of these! Just a souvenir from Dani cafe!

A cute Cafe Dani mug with Niel's lips on it! Oh how I wish!

AND... don't forget to leave a message for Niel in one of the notebooks by the counter.

I hate to leave but I have to go back to Seoul before it gets dark.

Oh well! It was a fun and memorable experience for me to be able to visit Dani cafe. Hope to be back soon. And next time with some Angels with me! Hihihi~~~

I went to Seoul last September 30 to attend an International Students Career Fair on October 1-2. After attending the said event, I went around famous places in Seoul.

But as a hardcore fan of Teen Top’s, I must go to places associated to Teen Top. On my first day in Seoul after the fair, I went to TOP Media. It was really difficult to go there so I decided to ride a taxi to reach the place. I just looked around outside for a few minutes and took some pictures. It was already dark when I went there so the pictures I took don’t look good.

On the second day, we decided to finish early in the fair so we can go to more places. Then I decided to go to Dani cafe. It’s a must to visit Dani cafe especially if you’re a Niel-biased Angel. From Gangnam, I traveled to Annyang. It was a pretty long trip and I was confused with the transfers in the subway. Arriving Annyang terminal, we can walk to Dani’s for a few minutes. There’s this underground mall so it’s better to pass through there while window-shopping. Good thing there’s wifi everywhere so I can check my current location with naver. I’ve seen some pictures of Dani cafe from fansites so it’ll be easier to find it. But I almost passed through the cafe until I saw the cafe sign. I was really happy when I reached the place. I first took a lot of pictures outside before going inside. The cafe is actually in the 2nd and 3rd floor of the building. The cafe is pretty narrow but long. There are a lot of Niel pictures but most of them are fanarts or gifts from Angels.

On my last day in Seoul, I hurried to the Seoul station to take a KTX train going to Daegu for Teen Top's fansign event. Me and my friends had plans already to go around Seoul and explore more of its famous places that day since it was also a holiday but I had to change my plans to be able to go to Teen Top's fansign event. Arrived earlier than expected in the event site, I waited for a few hours. There were already many fans around the area since it was an open fansign event. It was really good to see Teen Top has fans from all ages and fans from other countries as well. 

This account is just a summary of what I've been through last October 1-3. I will be posting a more detailed account soon with more pictures!

Also, I will be making a tutorial on how to go to TOP Media and Dani cafe so it'll be easier for you to go there whenever you're planning to visit these places.

I'm really sorry for the late post especially to those who have been asking me about it. I've been really busy with school and work.
