So I went to Big Show. I went two days - the first and the last.

I had an amazing time. In between my trips to Korea, far away from kpop and Big Bang's influence, I tend to forget just how much I love them, just how much I am devoted to them. Forgetting is good. It's healthy. I try not to love things too much, because that can only bring pain, especially when the thing you love is unreachable.

blah blah blah more )

I can't find words for the concerts because they were too good. Too impressive. Too amazing. I wish more than anything that they would come to the US. Coming to Korea each year is hard.


SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS FROM MY CONCERT-GOING EXPERIENCE

1. On day 1 I was sitting in the front row of section 10. During the show, security started to line up along the front wall of the section. I knew SOMETHING was going to happen, but I wasn't exactly sure what. Then Big Bang got on the moving platform, and went by my section. Since I was in the front row, I was basically about two feet from them. I was waving like a dork, but GD saw me, and pointed directly at me. I was also filmed by Dae's camera. Soooo.... I MIGHT be on the concert DVD? I did get a weird fancam of the even. Like, you can see them coming, and then when they came close I freaked out, so the camera only shows their feet. I was literally, LITERALLY shaking. Seriously, I could barely hold my phone to get the video.

2. Also on day 1, these two guys kept passing in front of me going back and forth from their seats to some other area. One of them looked really familiar, but I wasn't exactly sure it was him until I heard the Korean fans next to me talking about him. It was Seung Ho, one of 2NE1's stylists, and GD's friend. So yay! Slightly famous person spottage! Down below, on the floor, there was a guy who was also attracting attention. I don't know exactly who it was, but because he was wearing a hoodie I kinda automatically assumed it was Teddy.

3. On day 2, I didn't attend the concert, but I went to the venue in order to buy stuff (and of course I got them right after they stopped selling). I was hanging around when an official looking guy with a huge camera stopped me, and asked me for my picture. Soooo.... I might be in the concert photobook? Either that or some random guy wanted a picture of me. Either way, FLATTERED. I probably also looked like a huge dork in the photo. I don't photograph well...

4. On day 3 I was standing. Which was decidedly unpleasant, but a thing that must sometimes be done. On this day, they had changed the show a bit from the first day. The platform, which didn't pass by section 008 on the first day, passed by it then. Most of the members were looking away, but AGAIN, GD ended up looking directly at me. I was horribly excited. Later on in the show, when Baby was suspended in the air, he also looked directly at me. It was surreal.

5. Also on day 3, I was in a very good position to see TOP walking on the stage. He was wearing these skin-tight red pants, and I watched him slowly walk away. And I can tell you he has an AMAZING ass.

6. Again, on day 3, Young Bae was doing the thank-you's at the end, and he thanked Japan, TAIWAN, and China. Which confused me. They didn't thank the USA though. Which made me sad. But yay for Taiwan! Maybe someday they'll go there. I want Taiwan to be more recognized, even if it is only by kpop.


SOME RANDOM PICTURES!

I WAS able to fancam a little. And I audio-recorded the entire show. However the internet here at the hostel I'm in isn't the greatest for uploading, so sadly I fear the videos will have to wait until I get to Taiwan.

So, in conclusion, I basically need to go to every single Big Bang show ever. EVEN IF IT KILLS ME. And believe me, it will. I'm basically dying right now. You forget just how hard Asian beds are until you have to sleep on one after having slept on a nice soft mattress for a year. I feel like the bed is bruising me. Also, I hate stairs so much. Transferring subway lines means many many stairs. My thighs are on fire.

I'll write more on it later, and will include my fancams / pics, but OMG BIG SHOW 2011 RULED MY LIFE.

They came really close to me, like, REALLY CLOSE, and I got very excited, and it made my life, basically.

I didn't get to buy anything though. For some reason they closed the booths really early. I'm going to go tomorrow/today to buy stuff.

There were some additional goods they had there that weren't originally on the list.

I also bought the new album today. It is pretty, though I do miss the old style of their albums. This album is done in the style of the GTOP album. Which is fine, but I miss the old mini's.

ANYWAY, off to sleep. It's REALLY late, and I feel like dying. SO. TIRED.

The second set of Big Show goods was just posted! I AM EXCITED. There's a lot more in this set that I want, like the photo set, and the stickers (I LIKE STICKERS, OKAY?!). I probably won't get a cup, despite liking the idea of them (I will never use them because I do not actually drink coffee, and don't drink much in general). The photobook IS enticing though...

I don't know ANY Korean, so I was baffled by a few of them. Luckily [livejournal.com profile] eukyangkyang at [livejournal.com profile] yg_bigbang helped me out, and now everything is happy again!

Okay, so earlier today I was like "Hmmmm... I wonder if they've posted the Big Show 2011 goods yet". And I just went to check them, and BOOM, they've been posted. Apparently just a bit ago too.

So! Excitement! This is the first batch. The second batch will be released on 02/18/11.


First off, A NEW LIGHTSTICK! It's FANCY. It's being sold for 13,000₩

More of the goods! )

I know I've posted about this before, but I'm kinda scatterbrained (kinda?!... lets say, majorly).

Who is going to Big Show 2011?

Who am I meeting there?


People I KNOW are going - [livejournal.com profile] hallerness, [livejournal.com profile] evennexsoul, [livejournal.com profile] sn0tcat (well, at least in Korea at the same time).

People I'm not sure are going - EVERYBODY ELSE.


PLEASE, if you've contacted me about meeting up there, comment here, so I can get all my ducks in a row.

Ooookay. I've been boring, I know. It's because I AM boring. At least right now. Plus it's cold (SO UNGODLY COLD) and I don't want to do anything that doesn't involve sleeping, or engaging in activities where I don't have to move.

I paid for my Big Show 2011 tickets this morning. I don't have the tickets yet, they're not on sale yet, but I paid the girl who's going to buy them for me. I decided to only go to two shows instead of three. The tickets are expensive, and I started freaking out about spending over $300 on concert tickets. I figure I can go on the first day, and the last day.

I'll use the day inbetween to like, relax. Because I don't know about you, but concerts tire me the fuck out. Especially Big Bang ones. Because you have to wait in line for SO FUCKING LONG (longer if you arrived early to get goods - normal wait time when you do that is 4-5 hours), in the freezing cold. And then you go inside where at least it's not windy, but you still have to stand (if you have a standing ticket), and wait some more. And then the concert is 2+ hours, and you stand the whole time (if you can't tell, I've never actually had a seat before), possibly jumping around, while being crowded in by a million other girls, and then the concert is over, and you stand and wait some more for them to let you out, where upon exiting, you stand in line AGAIN (if you decided to use the coat check place they have, which is likely, since if you're in the standing section, you can't take your bag in). And then you walk to the station, where you stand because all the seats are taken. Same with the subway. So it's whole fucking day of non-stop standing. In the cold.

... If you can't tell, I don't like standing for long periods of time. I also don't like stairs. I like walking, and I like sitting. ANYTHING ELSE IS UNACCEPTABLE. If you ARE in a standing area, I recommend dosing yourself with some aspirin, or tylenol, or something because your body WILL ache (unless you're like, 18... in which case, fuck you and your not very damaged joints and stuff). Possibly a muscle relaxer. Maybe a bit of tranquilizer... (....joking.... maybe... I won't say the thought hasn't crossed my mind)

And THAT is why I decided to not only take a resting day, but to only do standing seats for one of the two days.

I'm not going to buy a lot of merchandise either. I'll probably go for the signed CD's if they have them (you have to get in line REALLY early for those. Like, REALLY early, at least 6-8 hours), and maybe one or two small things. I have way too much BB stuff as it is. But I do want the calendars. Or maybe just one. It's not like I actually used more than one of the SEVEN I bought last year. Yes. Seven.

IDK guys, I'm really tired suddenly. So maybe this isn't making sense?

Someone needs to give me a drama to watch. Something GOOD. Something fun, and romantic, and not angsty, because I'm not in the mood for that right now. Also, preferably Japanese or Taiwanese. REC ME SHIT.

Blaaah. Tired.
(Sorry about all the swearing. I generally try to tone it done on LJ, but I've been spending a lot of time on twitter recently (where I tend to swear... a lot), so things are out of whack in my brain. Also, did I mention the tired?)

I'm a little confused between the two tickets - VIP and R. Is one better seating? Does one include a fanmeet (if so, the price is ridiculously good)? I just don't know...

Guys! So since the Big Show 2011 has been (unofficially) announced, I wanted to see who was going.

AND if you're going, do you want to meet up? (I promise I'm not a serial killer ;P)

AND if you want to meet up, do you want me to order our tickets at the same time, so we'll be in the same general area (hopefully)?

I've already made a preliminary order for my ticket, but I can probably add more orders to it.


Soooo... LET ME KNOW PLEASE!
