The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 681

~ Michele ~ Leave a comment

I admit to having bouts of sentimentality, and there have been plenty throughout this countdown. I find myself today reminiscing over G.O’s last stage before he entered the army. It seems as if the culmination of his days of service and the momentum towards completion are filling me with a mixture of both nostalgia and eager anticipation. His last stage was a solo stage and his first stage following discharge may also turn out be a solo stage. See how this renders me simultaneously sentimental and excited?! I will let my nostalgia then carry us back on this Fan-Camming Friday to that last stage in February 2016 [I.Callist Idol Vocal Concert] with G.O’s moving performance of 사랑은 차가운 유혹 [Love Is A Cold Temptation].

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 680

As I sat down to contemplate the next installment of The ABC’s of G.O, I discovered the letter U to be surprisingly adjective-friendly but am settling on one that is most pertinent given the fact that G.O has been away from the music and entertainment scene for nearly two years now. I have done my very best here over these past 680 days to join in the plight of making and keeping G.O . . . unforgettable.

Friends, I am not sure there could be a better Christmas gift this year than the second one G.O gave us on Christmas Day. Looking beyond handsome in the coziness of a warm wool turtleneck sweater, he updated his Instagram account letting us know:

나도샀다아이폰X
#응카메라화질너무좋고사실적으로나와버려서어플없이는셀카엄두도못내는것

[I too bought an iPhone X. #yesthisphonecameraspicturequalityissoniceIcouldnottakeaselfiewithoutcameraapp.]

#Adorable

This precious man continues on his mission to spoil his fans in the best way possible. He spoils us by giving us more of him.

Happy Christmas everyone! This is the second Christmas we are celebrating with G.O as an enlisted man. This year, he gave us a wonderful holiday surprise on Christmas Eve to help us really enjoy our holiday celebrations: An ever-so-sweet Christmas selca. Too much adorable and the cutest reindeer yet to be seen! I want to send out to him and to all of you my warmest wishes for this holiday season. Wishes filled with healing and love. Please let the spirit of the holidays fill you with a warmth that is patient, kind and loving. Be good to yourselves and to each other. And . . . remember to never stop cherishing those you love.

Merry Merry Christmas!

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 675

It is Day 675 and a Saturday. Saturdays are made for dancing so I thought I might sneak in a short G.O Dance Break moment on the eve of Christmas Eve. It’s bit of a playful moment that also confirms that G.O has some very agile hips. Let’s travel back to 2010 where on 26 September MBLAQ guested on MBC’s Flower Bouquet where G.O gave us his interpretation of Hyun_A’s provocative dance move from her song, Change.

My love affair with 2012 continues. And since I am not adverse to short clips, snippets and soundbites where G.O is concerned, I am fully satisfied with my choice for today’s Fan-Camming Friday even though it clocks in at under a minute. You know my creed: Any time spent watching and/or listening to G.O is time well-spent, no matter how long or short. So back to May 2012 then when MBLAQ performed at the Kyunghee Cyber University Festival and a little focused cam during the closing moments of Oh Yeah.

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 673

Most of the time I have no trouble describing the special kind of handsome that G.O possesses. I call it special because it is layers deep and not wrapped up in only what is visible to the eye. I have talked about how his beauty is the complete manifestation of the kind, gentle, gracious, playful, intelligent and talented man he has showcased to us all countless times. And the camera, on any given day, at any given time, captures this beauty. In fact, every single post I have written about G.O is perhaps a testament of how beautiful he is, at least how beautiful he is to me. He is gorgeous, this is true. But during the Blaq% Tour press conference in Taipei back in August 2012, G.O was a tantalizing tour de force of style, sophistication and yes, handsome.

I am sorry but lately Tykeys have commandeered my playlists and when that happens, I invariably want to share the greatness of G.O’s work. Even though I recently shared an I’m Sorry clip, I am traveling down that road once more here today as there can never be too much vocal virtuosity in an eight day span. I think G.O’s recent (and nostalgic) update where he posted a picture of himself from his Tykeys’ days has triggered my desire to revisit the memories and the music. Today a short clip of I’m Sorry (yes, again) from Tykey’s visit to the SBS Power FM Cultwo Show back on 2 August 2007.

Happy Monday! It is Day 670 which means there are officially under two months remaining in G.O’s service. So unbelievable, but true. In two months he will return and with that return, a hope for an avalanche of new music. Just the thought of that fills me with so much eager anticipation. Fortunately, we have a wealth of recordings that have been keeping us . . . well, at least have been keeping me, satisfied during the wait. Past moments captured of G.O singing a beautiful love ballad always reach, soothe and caress the inner most corners of our hearts. They also create a desire and longing to hear more of the songs and sounds that have most assuredly been resonating within the corners of his recording studio. While we wait here on Day 670, I will share a moment that came shortly after debut. Yes, a moment From The Studio with G.O and Eric Benét’s sublime The Last Time.
