Good morning to readers, #Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Oleksandra Petukhova first tried listening to #K-pop in 2013. It wasn't popular then. At first she didn't like it – she thought it was some kind of children's song.
-
And then she saw a photo of a very handsome guy on a website, who Oleksandra thought was a model.
When she started looking for more information about him, she found out that he was Kai, a member of the Korean band Exo.

-
When the band has sales of albums or other merchandise, they put cards with everything.
There are limited numbers, and they can only be pre-ordered for one day, and then they aren’t available anywhere else.
Rita bought them all.
This is how Rita met Oleksandra.

Today’s Cat of Conflict is a cat from one of Kyiv's neighborhoods that Anastasia saw.
He and a bunch of other cats come out almost every day and sit on the fence like this.
