Dramabeans Meetup in Seattle
by javabeans
Maybe you missed our first Dramabeans Meetup in New York, or couldn’t swing by our second in Los Angeles, or didn’t make it out to KCON 2013 to see us there.
We can’t promise we’ll make it everywhere, but we’re trying! If you’re in the Seattle area, we hope you’ll come see us at our next meetup, which we’ve got planned for next weekend. Got Saturday afternoon free? Come chat with me and girlfriday (sadly, gummimochi and HeadsNo2 won’t be there—it’ll be a mini-meetup without them!) and other drama fans.
The details:
Date: Saturday, September 21
Time: 2:30 to 5:30 pm
Location: Ballard Library, Meeting Room
Address: 5614 22nd Ave. N.W.
Seattle, WA 98107 (directions)The meeting room is just inside the main entrance to the left. The library has a parking garage, and there is paid and unpaid street parking.
I do enjoy the fact that our NYC meetup was at a bar, our LA one at a mall, and our Seattle one at a library. Seems fitting, doesn’t it? Almost like it was planned that way. (We totally didn’t plan it that way.)
Hope to see you there!

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE! So happy!
I just asked in my last post why you guys don't have a meetup in Seattle, and here it is! Wish granted! (And on a Friday the 13th of all things too.) Double lucky!
Since I've been unable to enroll anyone else I know in my new Kdrama addiction, I'm really happy to know I'll meet fellow Seattle Kdrama lovers, and you, dear javabeans and girlfriday, my guides and enablers! Can't wait!
(Not so sure about the Ballard library, but I'll keep an open mind. And it is close to a lot of great bars and restaurants...I'm just sayin'.)

Gah- why is this happening?! I moved from NY to LA literally the weekend before the NYC meetup. I was in Seattle the weekend you were in LA for an interview, and I'll be in Seattle the weekend AFTER you guys will be there on the 27th. The dramabeans stars are not aligning for me... So very sad.

Alaska Airlines has a whole bunch of reduced fares to Seattle right now ("Deals" tab on website). Need to purchase within the next three days.

HOLY CRAP! I think I can make it to this one! I just moved to Kirkland. Do I have any drama-loving neighbors around? So excited! I'll have to bring some snacks to this shindig!

This is a huge surprise! This totally made me come out of my lurking mode. I have been a avid reader of dramabeans for a very long time. I see a familiar name here. I remember Paula from a Seattle kdrama meetup couple of eons ago. Hi Paula! Thank you JB and GF! ;)

OMG! I just found out about this and I happen to live in Seattle too!
I've never been an active commenter here, but I've always gone to this site to catch up w/ dramas that I like... Gosh, I'm deliberating whether I should come. I'm afraid I'll be out of place since I barely know anybody, but... It'll be great to meet people behind Dramabeans.

Most of us haven't met each other. I won't know anyone either...until after I meet people there. :-)
Come! It'll be fun to meet you.

Caroline you should come. I have no friends here in Seattle that watch dramas and I am thrilled at the idea of meeting some other Kdrama addicts. You could never be out of place in a room with drama lovers! I have been a very infrequent commenter (though I have been reading this blog since 2008!) I have never met a single other person in the flesh that has even heard of Dramabeans so this is very exciting for me. I need to know that I am not alone. Please do come.

Same here, I know zero DB people and I'm not from the Seattle area either haha. I'm also probably the shyest person on the planet. Just watch for a super tall awkward girl in the corner by the food, that's me. You should definitely come because then we can all connect over our awkwardness.

I am jumping way out of my comfort zone to go to this meet-up because I'm an introvert who doesn't like "joining" things, but I'm jumping with both feet and an excited, goofy grin because it's DBs.
If I can do it, so can you! ;-)

Guys, thank you so much for the kind words
I think... I'll come. As long as there's no sudden urgent event, I'll definitely come. Looking forward to see you all!!!

Hi Sarah,
Thought I'd confirm so you have time to see this. I can meet you at the Redmond Library, shall we say 1:45pm to give us plenty of time to get there as I am not too familiar with the Ballard area. Shall we meet by the snack/vending machines area? I can hold up a small sign that will say "Dramabeans" :)
