Profile Of A K-Pop Fan: 14-Year-Old Dancer Eula Baylon Of The Philippines On How Girls' Generation Changed Her Life

NAME: Christine Eula Sarona Baylon

AGE: 14

HOME: Pagadian City, Philippines

CURRENTLY: a student at Zamboanga del Sur National High School

INTRO TO K-POP: "I got into K-pop when I was 12 years old," Baylon said. "Someone was playing the song 'Gee' in our Plaza Town and I immediately loved it. I researched it on YouTube and I found out so many music Girls Generation videos and other K-pop videos as well."

THE DIFFERENCE: "K-pop music is different from the pop music of other countries," Baylon said. "Two reasons for that are firstly, K-pop has its own style that many people, including myself, feel so compatible with. Secondly, K-pop has lyrics that a lot of people really can relate to...once you hear and relate to it you will also believe the saying 'once a K-popper, always a K-popper.'"

FAVORITE GROUP: Girls' Generation

WHY SNSD: "My favorite K-pop group is Girls' Generation, because they are so pretty, talented, dorky and kind," Baylon said. "I have never seen them in concert, because my place here is so far from town and we also don't have enough money.  I wish that I could go to Seoul Korea someday and meet them, even just once. My favorite member is Kwon Yuri because she is so good at dancing and a kind girl too. When I see her dancing, I wish that I could be her, someday."

FAVORITE SONG: "I Got A Boy"

 "My biggest moment as a K-pop fan was when my friends and I auditioned for the famous folk dance ensemble of the Philippines, Melengas Dance Ensemble," she said. "The dance that we performed was 'I Got A Boy' by Girls' Generation. Unexpectedly, we passed the audition. It was incredible."
