Musing While Cruising the Hallyu Highway
I know the days are speeding by when it is time for a G.O One Shot! I am posting these every six days or so and it always seems that when I post one, it is time for another. That’s ok, because I love these short quick posts which are mini blasts of G.O often capturing his special kind of handsome and always a bit of his charm! Today a gif of him on stage captured in the sweet repose of a song.

While it is every fan’s dream to see their favorite group perform live in some capacity, the fan sign is what takes everything to the next level. Indeed those brief and special moments in a concert venue where you are close enough to grab the attention of your bias for a wave, high-five or even a selca are plausible if you are fortunate enough to have a spot near to the stage. The fan sign, however, guarantees that one-on-one moment with your favorite group and even more importantly, your bias.

It has been some time since I opened up the Sesame Player vault to feature a moment from a randomly chosen episode and since it is the 6th of August I went ahead and chose Episode 6 and from that episode, the Ddabong Challenge. The goofy antics of Seung Ho, G.O, Joon and Cheondung had me giggling throughout the entire segment. Of course, that was when G.O wasn’t assaulting all of my senses with his charm, charisma, pouty lips and dreamy eyes. So distracting! ~.^

For Day 170 of G.O’s military service I am going to focus on the windows of his soul and ask, if your MBLAQ bias held eye contact with you (and/or your camera) for the bulk of 전쟁이야 [This Is War], do you think you would walk away from the experience feeling somewhat changed? Undone perhaps?

There are moments when I watch G.O perform where I am convinced music is a drug. A heady intoxicant that invades the system of not only the audience, but him as well. I have often wrote about the power a song has over him and how he is held captive by it until the final note. I have called music his muse, his mistress, and his constant. But I think this is the first time I am calling it his drug. I guess there was something extra special about his dreamy eyes during the 11 September 2011 special stage performance on Inkigayo where he and Sistar’s Hyorin joined forces to sing Vibe’s 그남자 그여자 [That Man That Woman] that made me feel the intoxication.

Some moments in the past are a little harder to revisit than others. Still, I find that all of the moments that I am revisiting here on the blog that are leading up to G.O’s military discharge are reminders to the how and why he captured my attention, sealed my loyalty and support, and above all, stole my heart. Days before MBLAQ would take the stage one final time as a five member group, the core three of Seung Ho, G.O and Mir made a couple of public appearances, including the opening of the Boy London flag ship store in Seoul on 27 November 2014.

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.
