The Concert

My god. I don't think any words I use would do any justice to how awesome the concert is. It is beyond excellent, beyond words to describe it. I got the chance to see all of them close up, distance was at least ~1 metre, at most ~3 metre (for close up only). Hehe~ I will describe my experience in seeing them later.

First things first, pre-concert happenings. My sis and I went to the venue, Stadium Merdeka at around 6.15pm. 1 hr 45 mins before the start of concert. There were already ALOT of people there and at that time doors weren't open for entrance yet but it was only a minute after we reached did they open it. The fans went CRAZY and screamed, just because we are able to enter.

When they screamed I started to tear. LOL. Because too happy already!! Happy to hear the screams of fans right there, happy to be able to see them soon! So embarrassed to tear there. :P

While we were trying to get into the stadium through the huge pushing crowd, I managed to take a free red hand-shaped cupboard from the person who was giving them out. Although on the hand-shaped thingy was just promoting LG goods, it still can be used during the concert. Haha because we don't have any banners or torches.

Speaking about that, I was abit bumped there were no concert goodies. I thought they would at least provide red torch or something but nooo... we have to buy them ourselves. -_-" If I know I would have bought it from Mise la.

So we only had the hand to wave at TVXQ. Haha kind of pathetic but anyhoooo..

When we got into the stadium, we were able to stand about 6m away from the stage. I got nothing to do at that time while waiting, so I sort of did an estimation of how far we were standing. Lol. We stood for 1 hr 30mins on the same spot!! Our legs were tired even before the concert start. (But totally worth it)

ahaha.. I managed to sneak my digicam in because they never check!! It is only when you're inside, before the concert start and you take it out, the security will ask you to go out to place your digicam somewhere. Luckily I didn't take out before the concert.

Okay I guess I should not tell you guys too much about pre-concert stuff because the MAIN THING IS THE CONCERT!!

START OF THE CONCERT~
Lights out. Everyone screaming. Even me, who is also excitedly waving the huge hand. Lol. Some war scenes on the huge screen, and then showing each members walking. Everyone went nuts when they saw them on screen.

Oh goodness... their entrance was fantastic! The screen started to move up showing the 5 of them standing on the very high platform behind the screen. My first reaction seeing them standing there was OH MY GOD!!! THEY ARE REAL. Like totally real! Real in the flesh! Moving, breathing!! And they are standing just a few metres away!

I started waving the hand like crazy and screaming. Haha~ That's the only time when I can really get crazy over them!

After a few seconds of showing up on the high platform, the screen lowered and in the process, the 5 of them were suddenly raising from the main stage!!!!!!~~ LIKE MAGIC, appearing right before us! GOODNESS ME GRACIOUS, I was seriously surprised by that.

And then they started dancing to "Phantom".

At my position to the center of the main stage, I could actually see their gazes and expression. I could see where they are looking at and actually most of the time when they were singing on main stage, they don't really focus on any fans, they just scan through the crowd very briefly.

Only when they started to spread out and walk to the smaller stages did they wave and look at the fans. ^^ Sadly, they only wave to the fans nearest to the stage while singing.

Now abit on seeing them upclose individually.

Young Woong Jae Joong
One of the members who I had alot of upclose with because he had alot of position at the left side stage and we were standing on the left pit zone. In fact, he's the member I got the closest to, about 1 metre away. Haha, are you jealous, LL?

He's VERY VERY fair, probably the fairest guy I ever seen so far. And looking as perfect as in the photos, hm.. maybe abit better than photos. Haha~ All of them look better in person than in the photos.

And I couldn't believe he did his dorky dance while standing at the side stage alone while the other members were singing their parts. The fans around (including me) screamed like nobody's business and he was like LOL.

All I can say is he is really really handsome until~~~~~~~

Xiah Junsu
He stands right at the position of my primary gaze at the main stage. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE HIS SOLO. His solo is way way impressive! He danced sooo well, doing alot of body waves and powerful moves. I love his body wave moves because he made it look so easy to move so flexibly. He also danced under pouring water above him and that was beyond cool!

Wow, I really really like his solo sooooo much. The song was excellent, the dance was awesome. Ah, he danced Yunho's part in "'O'- Jung, Ban, Hub". From the live performance, he can really be on par with Yunho in dancing. My goodness, his vibrato is really good during live as what I expected. This guy is really an all round talented artiste la!!

Oh yah, Jang Ri In was guest appearance in the concert. She sang BoA's part in Tri-Angle and also "Timeless" featuring Junsu. She's their junior, from China and her vocal is very powerful and have improved alot. Sounds abit like BoA and she's an 89er. Same year as me! x_x

Uknow Yunho
I am sooo :( that he cannot dance in Rising Sun, O and the other dance songs.
But he danced for Phantom and his own solo.
Seriously, like really seriously, in my opinion he look WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY (x infinity) better in person than in the photos. When I saw him during his solo (that's when he stands at the center of the stage if not most of the time he stands the furthest from me), I was literally staring at him la. Like O_O silently when everyone was screaming. He is soooooo good looking in person!!!! I swear he really took my breath away.

Not only that, everyone knows he is the best dancer in TVXQ. And yes, he is. His looks is enough to kill, but with his dance, it's enough to slaughter the soul (or something like that). His dancing, even with an injury is PERFECT to the max. That's why I was abit bumped not being able to see him dance in O. His dance moves in O is really awesome. Oh yeah, there were several parts in his solo that require the audience to sing along but the lyrics were in korean!! So it was rather quiet when he sort of motion us to sing along. Lol. But there were a few fans who sang along which was not too bad. ^^" Love him much!!

Micky Yoo Chun
MICKY!! He stole Changmin's red hat for his solo!! Haha~~ No la, I was just kidding. He wore a red hat during his solo which was what Changmin always wear for his solos in Seoul and Taiwan's concert. Why did he change? Because his original hat, the purplish one, was blown away during Taiwan's concert. Lol. Due to the bad weather~ remember the typhoon?

Yeah, so anyway his solo on Sat's concert was better than in Taiwan's. I watched abit of fancam of his solo in Taiwan's concert and there was abit of 'po yin' or unstability on the high notes but Sat's one was perfecto!! He hit the high notes rather smoothly which made me really surprised. I took his video but it was of his back, because he was standing on the center stage.

Oh yeah, during their talk with us, he spoke some english to us! He did alot of english talking actually. And Junsu also said "VERY HIGH!" in the middle of the concert! So cute! Lol. Sometimes they would ask, are you ready?! are you enjoying yourself?! in english while they were switching songs. It's so cool how they want to connect with the audience. <3>

Choi Kang Chang Min
With all the luck in the world, he is another member who I had many upclose with!!
He looks sooooo cute and breathtaking at the same time. He really look like an 88er in person. Actually all of them look like their age in person. When I first saw Chang Min danced, I had the same reaction when I saw Yunho, I was stunned of his handsome face. I was like my goodness... he looks so much better in person than in photos/videos!!

Chang Min was quite suay during the concert. During Balloons, they all had an aeroplane each to ride in. It seems, something went wrong with Chang Min's one and he sort of got stuck/couldn't control the plane (I'm not clear about this because he was the furthest when they rode the plane) and then his mic went wrong too. We couldn't hear him during his first part in Balloons, SAD!!

Another incident happened right before me, the nearest to me. About 1 to 2m away? They were all supposed to get on this platform which the boys have to operate themselves. Just push the lever and the platform will rise about 3m high~ (that's what I saw from the rest) but Changmin's one got stuck!! He was like, pushing a lot of times without success. And his expression was abit panicky, I sort of saw him mouth "an-dweh" (no way in korean) and shaking his head while pushing the lever. Lol... he's so cute la!! Luckily a staff came to help him just in time but he was only able to raise 1m high. And we all cheered for him~~

Then a lucky fan got a waterbottle from him in my area. -_-" SO GOOD!!!!!! He was holding a water bottle walking towards the left side stage, and around there, he looked down at a fan and his actions were "you want this? (points to water bottle)" then he pass it to the fan. Wah lao.. so envious!!! At my area leh! Like 1 to 2 m away from me only!

But nevermind, able to see him upclose can already. best night of my life so far! Really enjoyed myself so much!

I actually saw them!! I saw TVXQ!!

Now I can die without regrets. HAHAHA... :P
But somehow, seeing them made me want to see them more. It isn't the other way round which I thought it will be. That sucks!! T-T

Here's a fancam by me of their Rising Sun. Not very clear and that is the maximum zoom it can go. But it is one of the best vids I have of them.


During the concert, not only can we see TVXQ in person, we can see them as cartoon characters and also a short clip of them breaking a car to make an old type of western car--> That part is for their song "Drive" which Yoo Chun and Yun Ho rode the car out.


There are so many things I want to say about the concert but I am too lazy to type more.


KL Trip

I had ALOT of exercise during this short trip to KL. My whole body ached when I came home and it's still aching abit now.


Exercising Moments:
When we reached KL at 4am+ we walked from Swiss Garden hotel to Federal Hotel. Though it was actually quite a short distance but we didn't know how to get there so we walked in circles and asked around, and found out that it was quite near. -_-"

Before breakfast on Sat morning, we had to walk a long way from our hotel to some other place and after walking so long, we decided to eat in another hotel. After breakfast, we were too tired to walk anymore so we took a cab to Sungei Wang Plaza.

Oh yeah, I bought a red shirt from Sungei Wang Plaza just for the concert. Hahahaha!

Then during the concert, my sis and I stood for 4 hours+ throughout. Freaking tired!

Then on Sunday, alot of shopping in Times Square. Alot of walking. My legs were already aching at that time, plus more walking in Times Square, wah... cannot take it. My cousin and I even had to run to the bus because we were late.

The whole KL trip was practically for me to lose weight.

More TVXQ fancams:

The Way You Are


Phantom


You can see I'm quite close right? From where I stand I can see their gazes, where they're looking at. I have some more vids but they are taken with my sis's phone so they are very blur.

I always watch fancams and feel very 'pek chek' when the video keeps shaking but now I know the fans' feeling. It's hard to keep very still when taking video especially when you have to raise your arm to the fullest for minutes. Haha so don't blame me for the shakiness!

Once again, I ACTUALLY SAW TVXQ~!!!
