One K-Pop fan’s boyfriend isn’t just a green flag. He’s a whole forest, according to netizens who’d love to be in her shoes right now.

Depending on who you ask, dating a K-Pop enthusiast has its pros and cons. One pro is that you’ll never run out of gift options. From calendars to clothing, plenty of K-Pop merch can be gift-wrapped for special occasions. But there’s one nearly impossible-to-buy present many fans dream of.
