At the end of the day, in the Yeouido studio apartment
(*Kiwi: pet bird) - Kiwi, mom's home
(halts)
Oh my
what's this
(turning on the lights by Bluetooth) - What is this~
This perfect surprise made her speechless
For reaching 40K subs
Preparing a surprise like this
I told you that you don't have to do this
(already showing four fingers)
Happy 40k to me~
(swish) Happy 40k to me~
(unexpected butterfly dance move)
(ah) My beloved~
40k destinies
(a wink nobody asked for)
Happy 40k to me
(Thump)
(steady ending pose)
[Speech] Unexpectedly, at the end of today, I came home and like this
thank you so much for giving me a surprise
Thank you for being a big fan of me
(thanks to the biggest fan who prepared the surprise *subscriber Park Ki-eun) - Every moment was beyond my imagination
oh, the candle is shaking too much
(first time covering the mouth during a speech) - Thank you so much for the surprise comments and thoughts
(phew, that was close) - It was so unexpected and something I didn't even dream of
Do I really have 30k subscribers?
(@Destiny: Not 30k, but 40k) - Of course, that doesn't mean
I care so much about the numbers... wait a sec
(first time stopping the ceremony by herself) - Let me blow out the candles first, it's so pretty
(concentration lasts about 5 seconds)
Wow, it's so pretty
Before the candle melts completely
As I'm talking too much right now, the candles
(if you know, then stop talking) - look worn out. I'll quickly make a wish
(What, is she going to tell her wish too?) - For me and my subscribers, and those watching this video
who will soon fall for me
(wishful thinking)
and may all my family be healthy and succeed in what they do
[Wish fulfilled]
[Second speech] - At this moment, those who shine with me, who are force to be here
(wide eyes)
(one person who left.. will meet again soon ^.~) - 40,062 viewers.. no
(am I shaking?) - subscribers, I am so so
grateful
Today, I will only use 4 fingers
To show my love of number 4
Actually, I've always liked the number four, you know?
This moment makes me
(gulp)
Like the number even more
(Finish elegantly)
A channel so small and insignificant
But would not stop talking
This noisy Christine channel
Sometimes overacting, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing
Sometimes feeling frustrated and sometimes trying again
And sometimes, trying to get back up again
Sometimes clean, sometimes dirt, sometimes laughing again^^
(Smirk)
(Not finished yet) - Sometimes falling in love, sometimes feeling despaired by love
For not giving up on our Christine channel
(Giving up on subtitles) - And not pressing unsubscribe, but giving love
Wishing, blessing, praying for us
Our Destinies, who supports us with one heart and mind
(@Destiny: Imagine she never got to 40k...) - To every single one of you I'm very, very grateful
[Introducing the dress] - I only wear this pajama when I feel good
And a heart earring to show my love to you
You might have guessed, right?
That's right haha ^^
[Hair removal update] - It seems like I haven't done hair removal, oh my, I didn't
[Preparing for Q&A] - I have received questions
A few days ago
Why am I talking like this? I'm so flattered right now
[Americano vs Latte] - I'm totally on team latte
But a strawberry cake like this calls for an Americano
(What is she trying to say?) - But if i had to pick one, I'll choose latte
(turned on the light)
(The smile won't leave her face) - My lips, get a grip on yourself
I will quickly do the Q&A while eating the cake
(Thank you for the cake, rider^^) - The Twosome place cake is really full of strawberries
Let's try
(Starts eating after answering two questions)
This is crazy?!
(Looks like her eyes are gonna pop out)
The strawberries are definitely a pass
There's something like strawberry jam in the middle here
loooolll
Is this a mukbang or a Q&A
[Returning to Q&A] - I will do the Q&A quickly
[Something to brag about today!]
There's nothing to brag about~
(The fingers are speaking for her) - Is there really anything to brag about?
I prefer to be humble rather than bragging
(Go where...?) - I'll be going
I don't think there's anything to brag about
[Congratulations on 40k. Our Tini unnie's charm is really amazing! You should become more famous!! Cheer up, algorithm!!!]
(Thank you so much for the pretty comments, Destinies) - I was surprised how people can write such beautiful words
By reading these kind of words
(I feel the power of words thanks to Destinies) - Even on a day that seems completely ruined, it makes me feel good again
I still remember
there are really a lot of words that come to mind
there was a time when I was really hard on myself
and my self-esteem was really low
I was burying my tears in my pillow then suddenly a YouTube notification popped up
In the video about items that greatly improve the quality of life
In the YouTube comments
(a comment I received when I was blaming the quality of my life) - He/She said that I'm the one who greatly enhances the quality of his/her life
I really cried my eyes out at those words
Realizing that there are people who see me in such a light
(tears starting to come up) - There were people who watched me since I was an exchange student in Spain
(caught up in the number 40k) - That was about 40... I mean 4 years ago
which means they've been watching me for a really long time
I'm thankful for them for watching me continuously
(There were times when the videos weren't so fun to watch over the past four years, but they kept watching) - And for believing in me
(being a drama queen again)
(to those who have always supported me during job searching, break-ups, and failed challenges) - When the quality of life isn't good
for instance, when rejected or hurt by others
I'm so, so grateful for the encouraging words
I haven't been good at directly celebrating your birthdays
or when you have joyful occasions
(there's so much to be thankful for) - There are even comments like 'Let's go 1 million subs'
(Tini being serious but somehow funny as always) - I'm so grateful for these words
The next Q&A question is
[It's not a question, but you are my favorite YouTuber♥ All your videos are really fun Thank you for uploading the videos]
There are people younger than me
(The one who wrote it never would've thought she would cry) - who writes stuff like this to me, and it's not easy
(she usually never cries from being moved) - I think this is the first time I've cried from being touched in my life
like 'Wow, someone is actually saying this to me, there's someone who says such things'
I always feel really thankful when I think about it
I know it's never easy to express such feelings
and even those who watch me without leaving comments
(please tell me you're there, Destinies..) - I'm sure there are a lot of them
these people like me just for being myself
But as you all know
(I'm so grateful to those who see me just as I am) - It's not easy to be seen and accepted just as you are
so that's why for all of you, both before and now
(to those who liked me just as I am, no matter the number of subscribers) - I feel so grateful
Although this started as 40k celebration
rather than being so aware of the numbers
(only a bit aware)
(after saying that, eating it all by herself) - This cake is yours
why do I look so ugly, I should be pretty today
(her flow that instantly breaks the mood) - Usually it's a bit... I think yesterday was a bit better
[Unnie, hehe, how old are you? I'm curious if you're older than me I watch everything you upload on YouTube]
(There are a lot of questions about age, huh?!) - Such a pretty girl saying this~ while being prettier yourself~
born in '96
(irrelevant sassiness)
I'm an early '96, so I'm currently 27 years old
[What have you learned about yourself recently?] - And with a hand heart emoji
I realized I liked reading books
Life is about making choices at every moment
It was my choice to be in this position
And it's also a choice that you all decided to watch this video
But the best way to have no regrets about those choices is wisdom
Being able to wisely consider the opportunity and its cost
The fastest and most cost-effective way to gain that wisdom is
I think by reading lots of books
Reading books makes me more certain about my choices
So, rather than spending time worrying about choices
I end up spending more time making and acting on decisions
That's why reading books is fun
I guess this was why I liked books
[A deposit of 100 million won is too expensive I'm curious about how you save or invest money]
(*Spoiler: Not a success story) - I used all the money I earned during my internship or put it into stocks
But that was during the COVID period
I had quite a lot of money in stocks by my standards
It went all the way to minus 70%
So I didn't look at it at all for almost two years
Then, while on a call, my Toss app opened
So I just bought a small amount of the number one trending stock
But after the call
(Just a story from a month ago^^) - In about 10 minutes, I made 470,000 won
I was so surprised and thought, 'Wow, now this is what stock's supposed to be'
Thinking 'this is how you do stocks', I bought a lot of them
(*Don't know anything about stocks) - But as soon as I bought them, literally right after that
I lost 2 million won, and that was it
LOL
After losing 2 million won, I couldn't sleep at all that day
I think I lost more than 2 million won
And then I sold all of my stocks... I almost went insane
Starting this year, I plan to do it properly^^
[When is your birthday?]
(It's embarrassing~)
My birthday is February 5th
(@Destiny: I shouldn't have asked) - You can always recall it when you eat cucumber
[I'm curious about the principles you stick to when dating! At the start of the relationship, during, and after a breakup! Love you]
I love you more~
(I'll just have a bite) - Mmm, it's so delicious
I have so much to say about this
Do you know what I hear every day from my friends recently?
They say I've become a total fox
lol
You all know I've been hurt and frustrated by love, and had been through a lot
I'm really good at relationships now
Now I understand
(After 27 years) - Now I understand the flow of a relationship
Please don't call me a pushover anymore
(Foxlighting) - I've become a complete fox now
The reason why I'm talking about these principles is that
my principles are completely different from when I wasn't so experienced to now
this is something my friend's professor said
and it actually is one of my dating principles too
Do you know the '333 rule'?
It's 3 days, 3 months, 3 years,
It's decided whether to date him or not after meeting 3 times
and after dating for 3 months
(battery discharge after 3 seconds) - It's decided whether it will be a short-term or a long-term relationship
and after dating for 3 years, it's decided whether to marry this person or not
but to some extent, this is really true
in fact, that decision is not wrong
(At the start of a relationship: no playing hard to get) - And when starting a relationship, I don't play games
that's my principle
in fact, if you really don't like someone, playing hard to get is inevitable
because it's not about consciously playing games
it's because you really don't want your heart to be pulled in that far yet
[Drama Queen's Evening Sky Story] - During a relationship, you know, this is a bit sad
together, the size of love is 100
so it feels like I shouldn't give the full 100
since I've been hurt in love and have ended things with someone I trusted
there's a song called 'Evening Sky' by Ailee
there's a lyric that says there's a habit of keeping half back when starting to love
I really love this line
It's such a great line
I didn't want to fall in love again
thinking that love wouldn't work out
I met someone during that time
I really loved that person
I thought that this was 100% love
but I was worried that the person might go away
so I deliberately expressed about half of what I felt
only showed half because I feared he might run away
in case he would leave if I loved him completely
this habit came about
In the end, he told me that
'I loved you, but you never loved me'
That was so blunt, those words were so very
shocking to me
if this isn't love, then what is it?
But in fact, I did try to not show it
and even until the end, I never said that I loved him
because I was really afraid he might leave
I'd only show 80% even if I could show 100%
or maybe just 60%, it appears that way
It's not a good habit, but it turned out that way
After a breakup, the truth is that my weakness is also my strength
I'm really like a goldfish with my memory
I don't remember so well about that person after breaking up
and I don't really remember the memories much either
I do ruminate over it if I miss him
but now I've realized
going to one's house after breaking up
(She's great at making a scene) or making a scene, please don't do it
because the more you try to catch a man, the more he drifts away
I learned this through my own experience
[What kind of person do you think makes a terrible partner?]
Definitely the avoidant type
excluding issues like trust or having double standards
a really terrible partner
the extreme avoidant type
If you ever break up with an avoidant type
It drives you crazy. It's really hard
That's why I know so much about the avoidant type
so I'm wondering if I should make a video about it
I'm really, really scared of the avoidant type
because you have to resolve conflicts when they arise
[Why did you move to Yeouido, Ki-eun? I'm curious.]
I went to a friend's house for a late night drink about 2, 3 years ago,
They lived near Yeomchang Station
but at that time, I was living near the center of Seoul
and the rent or deposit was cheaper than my house
But the house is so much better
the condition of the house, not just that house but also
all the houses around the area were really nice
( close to The Hyundai Seoul, Hangang Park, Yeouido Park, IFC Mall, etc.) - There are a lot of studio apts, and the conditions of the studio apts are
much newer than those around Jamsil or Wangsimni
but the price is much better if it's the same, the house condition here is much better
[Sis, aren't you getting prettier this year? Stay healthy and don't get sick♥]
I can't stop giving a heart for this
I know the people who asked me all the questions
I know you all, and I'm so grateful, for real
I don't know how to thank you enough
I don't know, I'm just so thankful
(Destiny who do well in exercise/love/career/self-care are so cool) - There were cute couples
I sneaked a peek, I saw it on Instagram
(embarrassed laughter)
[Curious about your monthly spending on clothes cosmetics] (took another bite of cake)
I really don't know, I've never kept track of consumption in my life
if there's something I want, I buy it right away
but it's not like I buy luxury brands
or very expensive cosmetics every time
[Tell us a TMI please]
There's definitely a TMI
You know, I have a thing about bottled water
I never put my mouth on those
I'm very sensitive to saliva, almost to the point of having a phobia
So when someone talks and doesn't swallow their saliva
or if someone spits too much while talking
I can't stand it
So I say "I'm really sorry, but could you swallow your saliva"
"Sorry, but you're spraying spit on me." Like that
Or even when drinking together, if you put your mouth on it
I won't drink from a bottle after someone else's mouth has been on it
I'm a bit sensitive about saliva
[What did you have for dinner tonight?]
I didn't have dinner
I had a snack and now I'm eating this
[Unnie, please make a work vlog♥ What time do you wake up?]
These days I wake up at 8 o'clock
[I know it's pointless, but I keep getting bothered and comparing myself because I know the TMI about my boyfriend's first love, his ex-girlfriend...]
I'm really curious about what that TMI is
(Self close-up) - If I saw something about my boyfriend's ex-girlfriend
Or if I saw her face
But if that woman is objectively pretty as 50
But in my eyes, she looks as pretty as 80? I guess there's nothing I can do
And if knowing the TMI bothers me
Right, if he's dating someone like me, all his ex-girlfriends must have been pretty too
I think they must have all been great
(I'll just take one more bite and then talk)
My current boyfriend, based on his experiences with women
tries to treat me better, as he has accumulated data
As you all know, a man with such experiences has learned something
So, I am actually grateful
for training my boyfriend
and sending him to me, so just be thankful
The one with composure is the winner!
What's most needed is not impatience, but leisure
[Unnie! Do you have your own ways to relieve stress or manage it? And, by the way, I love you..♥]
She is Destiny, and her eyes are so cute when she smiles
Is this a stress that can be resolved?
If it can be resolved, how can it be done?
Or it's something that cannot be resolved
But since most of it cannot be resolved, I will be more stressed
I no longer try so hare
worrying about things I can't control
But it actually works when I intentionally think like that
In fact, in Dale Carnegie's self-management theory as well
there are ways to handle worries or stress
But I really, really empathize with that
I try to fill that memory with something else
But it's so hard
In fact, all my thoughts are on the stress
Then I go to a coin karaoke for two hours
(Lead up to- karaoke shouting) I go and belt it out alone because I'm really stressed
(LOL) - I come back after screaming my lungs out
Thank you so much for coming to Tiny's 40k celebration party
I'm starting again now
I really get choked up just thinking about it
So I'm really grateful, but I don't know how to repay this
What I've thought about how I can repay you
is that the best moment is when you all are smiling
And I think that's something I can do
*Vocation: Comedian
Please keep watching me in the future as well
(Warning: big face in 3 seconds) - Have a good night, I love you so much
You have been warned
It's so pretty, how do I open it?
Ah it's so hot, oh my god
Oh no, I touched it
The fire touched my hand
Stay calm, stay calm, let's try again, I can do it
I can relight an extinguished candle, calmly and quickly
I can do it a little faster
