いらっしゃい!

Welcome to Rella Complex, the brand new blog for Super Junior and Kim Heechul updates brought to you by me, Julia, author/owner of Wings of My Heart. In this blog, I will write about Super Junior and Heechul's latest news and activities and some of my thoughts on these things. I don't necessarily expect to be particularly timely in my posting of news, but I will try my best to keep up. This blog will focus primarily on Kim Heechul, the second oldest member of Super Junior, and his activities, though Super Junior's group and subgroup activities will also be covered, as well as some of the more important news about other Suju members. This is a style of blogging that I haven't tried before, but I feel like it's what's right for me at the moment. Perhaps if I'm successful at this, I will move this blog to Wordpress, but I'm starting out here for now. I get the feeling I'll be able to keep this going, though, because it can only motivate me to find out more about Heechul's latest goings-on, and I'm all for having more Heechul in my life.

I've been a fan of Suju for nearly a year and a half now, and a particularly big fan of Heechul for nearly a year, so it feels like it's high time that I have a blog dedicated to him. My Vox is practically a worship blog for him already (with guest appearances by every other idol I like), so a separate worship blog would feel redundant, which brought me to this idea. Keeping up with and blogging about his activities as I find out about them should be a lot of fun for me. The idea was also partially inspired by Hey! Say! Heisei!, a blog I have been following since I got into the Hey! Say! JUMP fandom recently. The style of blogging I'm going for here is similar to that blogger's - just regularly updating on Heechul's latest activities, instead of writing long analytical reviews of music videos. I don't have as much motivation for long reviews these days as I have at other times, but I still want to blog, and this feels like a good alternative.

The name comes from this post by Yopotan of Good Morning! Junior, though I probably would have thought of it on my own, anyway. XD It comes from the song "C/C (Cinderella Complex)" by High-King (one of the few recent Hello! Project releases I actually like) and Heechul's nickname, Cinderella, which is almost always shortened to Rella. I considered naming this blog "Rella wa damasarenai" ("Rella won't be deceived") after the AKB48 song "Cinderella wa damasarenai", but somehow Cinderella Complex felt more fitting for Heenim. Not that I think he'll be deceived anytime soon, but I happen to think that he has some complexes...but let's not get me started on my analysis of Kim Heechul's personality. After all, it's not like I know him in real life. But in any case, that's where the name comes from. The Rella Complex idea should result in a fanvid, someday, but I'll have to bug Yopo to do that, because I'm too lazy to figure out how to do it myself. XD

I hope that other Heechul fans will read and enjoy this blog, and general Super Junior fans, as well. PETAL FOR LIFE, YO! TOUCH! MAN! ...So yes. Please come back and check out my future updates! =)
