THIS, Par Avion is a series of letters with no definite ending. It does not strictly follow one story line; it can be about anyone, any particular moment. The point of this project is to be able to express a fleeting feeling that cannot be written down formally, something written in haste and confusion, to be expressed to a certain person in a form of a letter. Letters will be numbered just so I could keep track of the count.
summary Among the many realizations about you is a realization about us - we'll never be fit for a local love affair.

Among the many realizations about you is a realization about us - we'll never be fit for a local love affair.
Korea isn't for us. We are not destined for fast-paced living, for keeping a relationship secret under the scrutiny of too many people who understand us perfectly, for pats on the back and light touches and kisses snuck after practices and performances (because our hearts can only hold back so much). We've never liked lying, but we've always fancied flying so, when we fly to another place, we break free and let go of restraints. We look, touch, feel each other all the more, move in sync with each other more. It's like we're dancing, waltzing around and it's only now that we get the steps correctly. It's like magic.
But this is real and this happens for a reason because you're losing your balance and I'm right behind you, breaking your fall. It's just a light brushing of skin against skin, but it sends fancy tingles through my nerves, down my spine and to my toes. You talk about loving the water and boats and Let's do this again, this time without the members and the fans. It's surprising and new but raw and true, and I could only nod because this isn't Korea - this is Thailand and we're flying free.
There's no place but home. But home is never where the heart is.
... only because
it's always been with you.
