Thanks Tiff for the clip:Singer Kim Dong wan displayed his witty speaking skills to a fan who was shedding tears over his enlistment.
On the 19th, SBS’s “TV Entertainment in the Middle of the Night” broadcasted Kim Dongwan’s handshake meeting at Samsung-dong that was held on the 10th, one week before his enlistment. Kim Dong Wan said, “There isn’t a lot of face-time with fans during fan signings, but during a handshake meeting, there can be physical contact (‘skinship’) and eye-contact,” stating the reason for holding this event. (Note: I used eye contact, which is what it means, but the literal translation is something like ‘stamp with an eye seal.' In Korea, when you sign a contract or make an agreement, instead of signing with your signature, you sign with a stamp that is unique to you and your personal information. So I guess "stamping with an eye seal" can mean that with their eye contact, they're making an agreement - in this case, between DW and his fans to not forget each other. I might be reading too much into it, but I thought that was kind of cool)
While sharing greetings and hand shakes with fans, to a young female fan who started shedding tears upon seeing him, Kim Dong wan said, “Don’t cry! If someone sees, they’re going to think I’m going for active duty,” displaying his overflowing wit while trying to offer consolation.
Kim Dong Wan said to his fans, “After four weeks, you can see me on the streets, so I hope you will not be too sad” and with a bright expression, gave his final greeting.
