00:03 I like to shoot his activity from far.
00:16 Yesterday, I just want to see what
00:18 happened when An Sayong meet him.
00:21 So I saw that he's far away from An Sayong
00:24 because there's many fans in front and he's at the back.
00:27 So I said, well, yeah, it will not happen
00:30 because it's quite far.
00:32 Suddenly, she just grabbed her headband and just, you know,
00:38 go there and give to him, you know.
00:41 So I was quite shocked.
00:42 It's very-- you can see the chemistry between him and her.
00:46 Him, her, like that.

01:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:03 Actually, we have one memory.
01:05 Straight one month, we have the--
01:07 I'm not sure we want to share or not.
01:09 Actually, we cry together.
01:10 Because we're in the same hotel, right?
01:12 So I just want to give her flower.
01:14 And then, it's like, I just look at her.
01:16 She look at me.
01:17 I can't-- I just like cannot.
01:20 I just say to her, are you OK?
01:23 She's OK.
01:23 Me, I'm not OK.
01:25 So I was like, you know, like mother, mother instinct,
01:28 you know?
01:29 I just like cry.
01:30 And she cry.
01:32 Yeah, and then, the next day, she came to me from the bus.
01:35 She just walk in front of me.
01:37 And she's, are you OK?
01:39 She OK.
01:40 Our Indonesian master, [INAUDIBLE]
01:42 so we stay at the same hotel.
01:44 And then, we saw her.
01:45 She's like training at the--
01:47 near to the pool.
01:48 So we just go there, just have a gap.
01:51 And then, suddenly, her coach just went away.
01:54 And she look at us.
01:56 And then, I just ask her, do you need any help?
02:00 Then she said, yeah, yeah, I need somebody to roll there,
02:04 to put in the feet.
02:05 And then, she can do something like strength.
02:08 So she's like doing that.
02:09 And then, she look at me.
02:10 And she said, oh, my parents say thank you,
02:13 because you always support me.
02:16 But we are really grateful.
02:18 And then, when in Korea, we didn't--
02:20 we never really think that the mother really
02:22 into want to be us as a friend.
02:26 Because we just see-- hear the rumor saying that the mother
02:29 want to see us.
02:30 And suddenly, when in our lobby, they are staying in other hotel.
02:37 And then, Mr. Hong said, you come down now with the WhatsApp.
02:42 Why?
02:42 The mother, her parents waiting for you.
02:45 I said--
02:46 OK, we'll go.
02:47 Then, where are you?
02:49 And then, the president said, I'm not there.
02:52 Just the parents.
02:54 First time seeing them, like every day with them--
02:57 lunchtime, dinnertime.
02:58 We just follow, because we just want to have the experience.
03:02 But after a while, we have this thinking like, oh, no,
03:06 this is too much, overwhelmed.
03:10 I don't want Se-yong think that we are like take
03:13 advantage of the family.
03:14 So we get after the second visit.
03:18 The first glimpse is, I think, like she's 17, Taipei.
03:23 So that time, I saw her from the back.
03:26 I said, the figure is like my son.
03:30 So if he play badminton from the beginning,
03:33 maybe he can go further.
03:35 The next game, I keep on looking.
03:37 And it's nothing to do with my son anymore.
03:40 When she's have her own--
03:42 she's got his own image, very strong image.
03:45 And just like a butterfly grows with the strong structure
03:51 of wing.
03:52 [APPLAUSE]
03:56 So this is the journey of super fan of Han Se-yong.
04:00 [LAUGHTER]
