is that even a good reply or is it weird?
Hi! Does anyone have any recommendations for Phone camera lens attachments? I managed to get a seat to one of NCT 127's, but its pretty far back so i wanted to look for lenses to attach directly to my phone.
Thank you for any help, suggestions, recommendations etc!

so im a big fan of nct and cortis and i almost jumped from excitement when i saw that both 127 and cortis will have concerts whilst im in korea. the only problem is, is that the membership presale and general sale is on the same day at the exact same time, sold on the same website (melon) 🫠 judging by other posts and reels i've seen, melon is really strict with having the website open on multiple devices so i dont really wanna risk too much and end up not getting a chance to buy tickets for either show.
i have also contacted ticketing services but their fees are extremely high, which means i'd pay around triple the price of the actual ticket just for their service.
does anyone have any advice? i really want to go to both shows so bad 🥲
+ i'll be travelling on the day of the general sale so if i fail membership sale i'm genuinely f***ed lol
do you think the lightstick will be sold out quickly?
i will be moving to seoul in august and was thinking about getting one, but im a little worried that it'll be unavailable then. any thoughts?
I got accepted for KLI Fall semester and i'll be staying longer than 90 days. As i was filling out my visa application, i got stuck at point 8.5 (Details of Visit/Contact No. in Korea). I dont have a korean phone number yet, so What should i put there?
I was in a relationship with my guy best friend back in 2019, but i broke it off a couple weeks in, probably due to the commitment issues i had back then. We barely saw eachother after we graduated in 2020 but everytime i see him, the butterflies in my stomach go crazy and i get very shy. A week ago i saw him but i was too shy to say hi but i kept glancing at him, and according to my mom he also kept looking at me. I lost my chance to message him within an acceptable time frame from when we saw eachother so now im completely lost. I dont know what i should say if i text him, or if i even should text him or not. Please help 😭
P.s there's more things that happened between graduating in 2020 up to now, but i wanted to keep it short
Okay so there will be a whole lot of backstory to this, if you dont want to read i get it but if someone would be willing to help a girly out, i'd appreciate it a lot :') (sorry for any grammar or formatting mistakes, i just had to let it all out)
Backstory, starting in 2019/2020: In 9th grade i had a crush on my guy best friend. It was mutual so we started going out. I dont know what kind of issues i had back then, im guessing commitment issues, but i broke it off after a few weeks because i felt that something wasnt right. I remember i told him that i felt we'd be better off as best friends and that we should break up, and he looked really heartbroken (looking back i truly feel really bad for what i did, i think i hurt him a lot). We did stay best friends and there was always still some feelings left, we talked like a couple, always stayed close to eachother, etc etc. We also told each other that if both of us are ready, we'd give eachother another chance, which btw, never happened. After we graduated in summer 2020 we naturally drifted apart but still talked to eachother and went to hockey matches together. After some time i changed my prioritites from hockey to my passion at the time and i had to focus on school more so we fell out of contact. I noticed that he had unfollowed me on probably every social media platform after that but i never thought much of it.
2024: In May 2024 he sent me a follow request on LinkedIn. As we havent talked the past years i decided to hit him up and asked how life's going. We talked throughout the whole day but eventually had an end to the conversation. After that i didnt hear from him again until he requested to follow me on Instagram. I accepted and guess what? DMed him to ask how he's doing as its been around 5 months since the LinkedIn Incident. We talked a bit before i asked if he'd be down to grab some food and just catch up a little more and he agreed! He did mention to me that he had just broken up with his girlfriend of two years and that he wasnt looking for anything like that. At the time i wasnt really looking for anything either so i told him that it was obviously fine and we can just grab food and talk. We met up on halloween and grabbed some food in the city, the conversations we had were okay, we mostly talked about the past, people from school, my boss (who also happened to be his assistant trainer in hockey at some point), and just caught up on whatever happened in our lifes. The restaurant we were in also showed a live hockey match of our favorite team, so we also had that to talk about. After that he brought me home and we quickly said our goodbyes. We did continue texting for a bit but it got a little dry after some time so the conversation naturally ended.
2026: Ever since we met in 2024 he kept popping up in my mind. There was a time i would dream of him constantly and always wake up with that yearning feeling in my chest and stomach. This year our favorite hockey team won the championship for the first time ever so we've both been in the same space a couple of times and i never had the courage to go up to him and say hi. It was like i just froze in place and every emotion and feeling i ever had about him just came crashing down on me again. I did react to one of his Instagram stories about hockey but then again, the convo didnt evolve into a lot. I thought i should just let it be, but i cant suppress these feelings ugh.
A week ago i saw him again at the outdoor roller skate hockey tournament that his team organised. I have seen their promotion banners hung up in the village and whenever i passed by them, i wondered if he'd be there. On the day of, i decided to go there with my parents and eat a pizza that they make right there. And there he was. The butterflies in my stomach went CRAZY and for some reason my hands were shaking a lot. I kept looking at him and i fear he caught me one too many times. My mom also told me that he must have recognised me as he kept looking at me when he walked past our table. FUCK. I, once again, didnt have the balls to say hi to him and now i feel like i've fucked up. I told my friends and asked for their advice and they all said to text him to congratulate him on the won tournament and apologise for not saying hi because i was feeling shy. I thought about it but again, DIDNT HAVE THE COURAGE TO DO IT, and now i feel its too late and out of the blue (the tournament took place on saturday, its friday now...).
I feel so lost and stupid, i shouldve just said hi or messaged him right away. The butterflies in my stomach are still going strong and i keep thinking about him. I feel like a loser. I havent had a crush in so long i dont even know how to act anymore. Please let me know what you'd do in my situation 😭
