Vernon asked someone to take this photo. He asked her to do the heart with him. The attraction began on April 1st. This photo was one of the most memorable moments in the beginning.

Celebrating Buddah's birthday. It was the first time they met outside of the hiking club.

Vernon and Sohyeon's relationship starts here. Celebrating Vernon's 39th birthday at the Dongdaemun Mariott.

Sohyeon made Tuna yoo-boo cho-bap and they enjoyed it together on Dobongsan Mountain. It tasted amazing because it was made with love. The hike was a challenge that they conquered, which symbolized the strength of their relationship. Together, they are able to overcome hard times.

Sohyeon got a leg injury, but she went to meet with Vernon anyway. After eating Bingsu (Korean ice flakes), Vernon piggy-backed her to the Sincheon subway station, running through the crowd and racing against subway closing time.

First time dating in Sohyeon's hometown, Changdong, Seoul. She came to meet Vernon, despite the leg injury, limping together like Dorothy and her scarecrow friend.

Vernon's date Sohyeon was the passenger on his e-bike along the Jukjeon River. This was the first time eating Indian food together, and Vernon introduced her to Dal Makhani with Naan.

They attended the Incheon Rock Festival, camping outside for two nights. Together, they paid a lot of money to suffer, enduring the heat wave together like a bunch of gladiators!

Happy 100th Day Anniversary, with some Tiramisu cake.

September 15th celebrates the 100th day! Vernon's poem for Sohyeon and organic crafts made from the environment during this season. Sohyeon was very touched! <333

Having a lovely date in Seoul Forest. There was a jazz festival, too.

Stand-up paddleboarding on the Hangang River in Seoul during Chuseok, an important Korean national holiday, is similar to American Thanksgiving for family gatherings.

On Chuseok Holiday, this was the first time Vernon wore Korean hanbok and the first time for both to explore the Hanok village as a couple. Another one checked off of both their bucket list!

Sohyeon took care of Vernon for the two weeks in the hospital. It was a hard time, but they made it through, which strengthened the relationship even stronger. Nothing can interrupt their relationship now! Vernon had an open reduction surgery, which involved a plate and screw in his foot due to a major injury. Vernon was recovering quickly from surgery. They broke the rule and snuck out of the hospital a few times to hang out by the river. :PPP

Sohyeon's leg has healed. Vernon's leg is still out of commission, but that didn't stop the couple from valuing the fruitful and meaningful moments together. Hands-free, baby! MMCA (National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art), Seoul

Vernon introduces an American Thanksgiving dinner to Sohyeon. This was her first time. Here is a picture of them enjoying the vanilla ice cream dessert.

Vernon proposes to Sohyeon at a waterfall, Amicalola Falls. It was the happiest moment, and it was an element of complete surprise!

Vernon proposes to Sohyeon on top of a mountain, at Stone Mountain. It was the best scenery!

Vernon proposes to Sohyeon under water at the Georgia Aquarium. This was a special moment because there was an audience cheering and congratulating them afterwards.
