Shan Shao’s Journal: Day 1 – EDG’s Journey to Paris

Shan Shao’s Diary: Day 1

Finally arrived in a new land, feeling homesick. Left for our journey in the city of lights under the moonlight.

A Day of Travel

Traveling feels exciting, just like a kid going on summer break.

Shan Shao, an experienced player on the international stage, shares his lack of sleep during the journey. His plan is to sleep on the plane and wake up in France.

AmazingJ, sitting next to him, jokes about Shan Shao’s lack of experience.

As we approach the airport, we are recognized by fans who ask for pictures and autographs.

After a long flight, we arrive in Paris and feel the cold weather. The team is tired and hungry, but unfortunately the shop is closed.

We have no choice but to eat quickly.

Our alpaca player, not prepared for the cold weather, becomes the target of our teasing.

Upon arrival, we find a duty-free store and ponder over its name. Koro asks Shan Shao about its meaning, and Shan Shao jokingly responds with a translation of his own. Later, it is revealed that the captain’s translation means “progress everyday”.

The Hotel Experience

Arriving at the hotel, we are disappointed by the lack of professionalism compared to previous competitions. The check-in time keeps changing, causing us to wait for hours.

The players are tired and jetlagged, and there are problems with the hotel arrangements. We gather in the cafeteria to rest and wait for the check-in time.

We enjoy some food and drinks, and play a prank on Kakao with a spicy drink. The translator warns us about the dangerous area near the hotel.

The atmosphere in Paris is pleasant, with warm sunshine and a calm forest surrounding the venue.

While walking, Shan Shao takes a moment to admire the blue sky and reflects on the journey.
