I decided to do early voting today and went to the polling station very comfortably. I was surprised to see reporters there, but I gave an interview with a grateful heart.

However, there was another unexpected frustrating part. There were quite a lot of people who appeared to be fans around the polling station.

Some of them followed me all the way to my house, asking why I was running away... They even filmed me, so although the polling station and my house are close, I came home after taking several detours.

A little manners are needed~

I sincerely thank the officials who are thoroughly disinfecting and managing the polling station due to COVID-19.
