G i-ship con cut-ah

I can't believe its taken me this long to post anything related to the awesomeness that is K-pop. But here goes...

Single ladies: enjoy!

Attached ladies: Try not to get too depressed when you see these hot moves that your man can't and never will be able to do.

Last Saturday, I planned on going to see a movie with Laurie, followed by dinner and noraebang (karaoke) with Laurie, Brianna, and Keara. But then I got a message from my friend, Julie, saying foreigners could get in free to this G20 concert.


So after I read the list of performers, I quickly walked to my school to print off our coupons while texting L,B,& K to organize the change of plans.

We arrived at 3:30 at the Olympic stadium. I need to take a moment here to show you this picture. You'll know why in a minute.


Even though we got there early, our section was already full, so we had to sit two sections down. But this turned out great, because we were actually closer to the the center of the stage.

We took some picture frame photos...


and waited for the sun to set and the concert to begin.


Remember that picture with the Olympic rings just one scroll away? Well...
as we were waiting for the concert to start, we learned that Laurie is not a brunette. She is, actually, a blonde.

Brianna: "I'm so glad I getting to see the Olympic Stadium."
Laurie: "What? They had the Olympics here?!"
Me: "Yeah, that's why the Olympic rings were out front...and its called the Olympic stadium."

Anyways, the concert started and nobody else made any ditzy comments. I mean NOBODY.
So if you read a slightly different story in my comments section after Laurie reads this or on Seoul Searching's next post, its a lie. It's all hearsay. Don't believe a word of it!


Right, OK, so the concert started and it was amazing! The crowd all had blue glow sticks. There were singers from Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, and China. There were cool light shows during the performances with fireworks galore. And B2ST, 2AM, and Rain were there.

And Rain was there.


Here's B2ST performing SOOM. Yes, I screamed like a 13 year old girl, and no, I'm not ashamed.

(Note to readers: I am not a camerawoman. I don't claim to be. So don't expect high quality videos.)

And Rain was there.

But one of my favorite parts of the night was this song...the entire crowd sang the chorus together. My camera doesn't pick up the sound too well, but it was really neat.

And Laurie's intensity needed to be documented as well.

And Rain was there.

"Who is Rain?" Ohhh, let me tell ya. Picture the hottest arms you've ever seen (not sun burned arms, Dad). Now picture abs of steel. Then picture kick ass dance moves on a gorgeous face with a smile that could destroy the polar bears' land in a second.

Got that in your mind?

That is Rain.

I know he's wearing some interesting pants. But if you can get past that, you'll see what I mean.


And because that video is not enough, here's one of his music video. It takes about a minute and a half for the good part to start, but I promise its worth it!


I can guarantee this is not the last you will hear about k-pop. I haven't even mentioned 2NE1 or Bigbang!
