Musing While Cruising the Hallyu Highway
The more I revisit the dramas where G.O was cast in minor (but memorable) roles, the more I ache to see him take on a leading role – as in the lead who shows-up-in-every-episode role. And drama gods, if you are listening, please make the drama 20+ episodes in length. Jaebaaaaaal!!!

I would imagine that if you are a business owner you would welcome the idea of having a celebrity endorse your product. It stands to reason that (1) the celebrity will expose your product to a wider audience, may (2) enhance the credibility of your product which will then result in (3) potentially higher sales. If G.O is your chosen celebrity endorser, you will get the added bonus of simply having your product look good.^^

On June 25, 2011, G.O stepped on the Immortal Song 2 stage for the first time as a competitor in the KBS singing competition show. And much like he would do when he first stepped onto a musical theater stage, he initiated and invited a whole new audience to come drink in the potent elixir of his song, his voice and his soul.

I recall after G.O sang Gwanghwamun Sonata on King of Masked Singer this past December, one of the judges commented that she never thought a man could sing a song more tenderly than a woman. She clearly has not given our G.O a close enough listen. Still, what an exemplary compliment to receive.

I challenge you to deny that at some point over the course of all of the songs MBLAQ has given to us, there have been those select few where you tilted your head back and said to yourself, “Hmmmmmm…..what if they had an MV for that song?” This is exactly how I feel about Dress Up.

The first five months of 2014 were pretty spectacular for our gentle main vocal, G.O. As the year opened, he was in rehearsals for Seopyeonje which subsequently opened in March. By April, he was knee-deep in promotions for MBLAQ’s 6th mini album, Broken. At the same time, he was cast in a second musical, 바람의나라 [Kingdom of the Winds], scheduled to open in May, a mere 3 days after his final performance in Seopyeonje. He was perhaps at his busiest, yet I don’t think I have seen him happier.

A good song will always stand the test of time. This is something that G.O understands explicitly. His penchant for tender ballads written and recorded well before he was even a glint in his parents’ eyes is proof that the soul that resides in him has most probably been here before, and has felt love and loss, often.

Home alone in your bedroom, your parents conveniently away enjoying the evening (or perhaps weekend) at a jjimjilbang, and your adorable boyfriend shows up with some beer and a smile. Conditions are indeed ripe for romance!

Over the past year, we have seen G.O often in deep, rich colors, usually black (which he wears quite well). But how about we travel back in time a bit to a March 2011 Maeryo House photoshoot, where he wore the muted hues of blue, taupe and white. Even the softest and most gentlest of angels created in heaven would find it difficult to match his ethereal presence in these photos.~😍

There is nothing sweeter than hearing a smile in G.O’s voice when he sings. Remember 살 빼지마 [No Diet]? With every lyric released from his beautiful lips, G.O’s collaboration with rapper Damiano can very well be the tonic you need right now to help ease the blues of his 21st day away from us.
