Hello. I will not be updating this blog anymore. Iām sorry, and there are probably a bunch of other update blogs for Gongchan out there now to follow anyway. I had lots of fun updating this blog for the past 2 and a half years for my bias who, at the time, did not have a blog dedicated to him. Just figured I would formally let you all know that this blog will be inactive now instead of just ditching it. I will leave the blog up for archive purposes.

Lately the days have been quite sultry, your displeasure level must be on the rise and frustrations spreading right?Ā
Expecting this, weāve prepared the following. A surprise event to cleanse your eyes and provide some healing. The greatest summer plan where you can look at both flowers and a flowerboy, and rest your heart!
Flowerboyās florist challenge!
After rigorously looking over many potential candidates, todayās flowerboy is B1A4ā²sĀ āclear-cut handsome manā Gongchan!
Heās just walking up the stairs but is emiting a light.Ā
[Gongchanās appearance⦠dudung!]
Gongchan who accepted a florist challenge to provide healing down to your bones, but looking at todayās challenge he couldnāt hide his slight surprise.
[Really, I will be making this?]
According to Kim Sol Mi florist fromĀ āMy Flower Recipeā, who will be guiding Gongchan, this All Round Arrangement is a craft at the expert level.
[This is the arrangement to be made today]
When asked if he has made flower arrangements before, Gongchan replied,Ā āThis is the first time. Not even an arrangement, but I never even gave flowers for a present. Ah! Carnations for my parentsā¦ā and confessed his life far from the world of flowers.Ā
Even though his face is a flower.
However once he put on his apron and finished getting ready, he started to tackle the challenge, and the reporter as well as Florist Kim were surprised with his talented scissoring and concentration. He unleashed his hidden talents.
Florist Kim: āItās important for a florist to have a sense in making the complete design and arranging the colours, and Gongchan really has that sense.ā
[His scissoring technique is unstoppable]
Perhaps he has a sixth sense relating toĀ āflowersā, as he is a flowerboy.
[Flower and flowerās meeting]
Worried that he would be tired from concentrating for so long, he was offered a break. But Gongchan replied,Ā āIām alright, so please rest firstā, holding back his break to return to focusing on his arrangement.
At this point itās becoming hard to determine whether his occupation is a florist or an idol.
[Even Florist Kim is pleased with his sense]
An official from WM Entertainment even stated proudly,Ā āFor our Gongchan, usually when he focuses on one thing heās the type to continue until its completion. Hohohoā, and they are definitely correct.
[You can just see that he is focusing]
But still, it wouldnāt be good for him to finish his arrangement too quickly, so they forced him to take a break. But even then, Gongchan didnāt let go of the guidebook and was imagining his completed arrangement.Ā
[Even during his break, heās studying]
The reporter couldnāt just play around, so they had an interview with Gongchan during the break.
Reporter:Ā āYou said this was your first time, are you having fun?ā
Gongchan:Ā āAs expected, doing it myself allows me to concentrate, and I like it.ā
Reporter:Ā āWho would you like to present your completed arrangement to?ā
Gongchan:Ā āOf course itās our fans! And after that, I want to give one as a gift to my friends, and our staff.ā
Reporter:Ā āThere are many different flowers. Which one is your favourite?ā
Gongchan: (Picks one up)Ā āThis one.ā
[Please accept this juliet rose]
Florist Kim:Ā āThatās a juliet rose. Generally the rose symbolizesĀ āloveā.ā
Gongchan:Ā āAh⦠thatās probably why I wanted to pick it. Todayās main concept is the rose. Hahaā
He reacts to the word āloveā like a romanticist, and goes back to admiring the flowers.
[Oh itās getting there]
And this is the completed arrangement! Tadah!
[Itās beautiful]
He looks at his own arrangement proudly, and now heās fallen into taking photographs.
[From various angles]
Actually, his hobby is to take photographs.
Gongchan:Ā āRecently, I went on an outing to Seoul Grand Park. I rode my bike by myself, and it was fun.ā
Fans should look around when they visit Seoul Grand Park in the future. Gongchan might be there, taking photos.
[He took quite a lot of photos]
His arrangement is complete, but it would be disappointing without a letter to accompany it. Gongchan wrote two letters: one for his fans as expected, and the other for his future wife.Ā
[This is good handwriting thoughā¦]
But Gongchan who was unstoppable with his flower arrangement is struggling quite a bit with writing this letter.
Gongchan:Ā āI have really poor handwriting. I should have taken a handwriting class when I was youngerā¦ā
Itās not at the level of calligraphy⦠but it doesnāt matter if itās poor handwriting. Especially when heās putting so much thought into the message.Ā
Furthermore, with B1A4ā²s comeback approaching he was asked about the new albumās concept. And unexpectedly, Gongchan answered without hesitation.
Gongchan:Ā āOur new albumās concept is the same as this flower pot.ā
Reporter:Ā āā¦Sorry?ā
Gongchan:Ā āItās the same as this flower pot. Our concept.ā
Anyway thatās what he said. So Banas should look at Gongchanās flower pot and look forward to their new album.
Until the end Gongchan listened to methods of maintaining the arrangement, and stated,Ā āItās for our fans and my future wife, so I have to store it somewhere safe. I want to put it where I can keep an eye on it.ā And with that, his florist challenge ended successfully.
[Respectful Gongchan gives a 90-degree bow]Ā
To be honest, there were thoughts of holding an event for fans and using the arrangement as an award, but as it was a live flower arrangement that plan didnāt go through.Ā
Regardless, the fact that it holds Gongchanās and B1A4ā²s heart for their fans is never-changing, so donāt be too sad and please offer a lot of support for B1A4ā²s comeback!
