Musing While Cruising the Hallyu Highway
I am going to keep it very, very simple on this 167th day of G.O’s service and offer a single picture for today’s One Shot. It is very difficult for me to want to stop at just one. But often one dreamy ethereal shot is enough to satisfy one’s eye thirst.

Shortly after debut, the men of MBLAQ continued their endeavors to take over the world…hehehe…well, more like win over more hearts, and they were succeeding. In addition to using their incredible musical talent, they were also appearing on many variety shows and visiting various radio studios introducing audiences to their special brand of wit and charm. From June to August 2010, G.O let his sweet and sexy charisma descend upon DJ Jung Ga Eun’s radio program, Sweet Music Box.

Nothing says summer quite like the sweet sounds of reggae music. And when you mix MBLAQ with ska punk group Lazybone on a warm summer day, let them take the pop out of 알면서 그래 [You Already Knew] and stir it up with some reggae-infused magic, it pushes the song to a whole new level, and I love it!

Every composer needs a place where he can quietly go to create. Somewhere that is both a place of inspiration and a sanctuary. On 20 July 2016 we learned that G.O created such a space, his own recording studio.

I’m begging you, I’m begging you (U U) so I can get over you
I’m telling you, I’m telling you, let go of me now
Why are you so tough until the end?
Why are you making me go crazy?
I’m begging you (U U) so I can get over you
I’m telling you, I’m telling you.
Let go of me now, BYE U
Oh my…I have not listened to Outsider’s Bye U in such a long time and it was exactly what I needed on this 163rd day of G.O’s service to brighten my spirits. Inasmuch as G.O has this wonderful collaborative style when working exclusively with a rapper, I would have never expected a speed rapper would have necessarily been a good fit. As time goes on, however, G.O confirms to me over and over how much of a music chameleon he truly is, and how he can adapt to any genre of music as well as a particular style within that genre.

Because it is summer and there is an overabundance of heat, I am just going to let the thermostat continue to climb. I guess I am on a bit of a Sexy Beat binge. Do you ever go through favorite album rotation syndrome? Some days for me it’s Mirror and Mona Lisa. Some days Mirror and Broken. Seems this week it is Mirror and Sexy Beat. Clearly, always Mirror. ^^ Anyway, I declare Day 162 of G.O’s service a Fan-Camming day, and make way for Smoky Girl and the amazing editing skills of MemenGO87.

When I publish these posts, it is usually around the 6:00 AM hour in Seoul. That’s not too early for a Sexy Beat gif, right?

On July 26, 2015 two more fan signs were scheduled and you would think that since I had my first fan sign experience behind me that I could face the three charmers of MBLAQ with confidence. In theory, sure. In real time, not so much.

One year has passed. And rapidly at that. It has been one year since the fan signs in Myeongdong and Incheon last July. Yes, I said rapidly because indeed it has flown by. This gives me hope that the one year, six months, and twenty-three days remaining in G.O’s military service will march by equally as quick and he will return refreshed, renewed and ready to roll. Until then, I wish to reminisce.

When I look at these three gorgeous and talented men, I am filled with inspiration. I am also filled with an inexplicable desire to share my love for them in ways that perhaps some feel is outrageous and uncommon. And I have to be honest, I have struggled because there are days when I don’t even understand me either!
