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!!!

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.

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!

If you were not already completely smitten with G.O after the first 10 episodes KBS Joy’s 5th season of Hello Baby, then most assuredly, number 11 would do the trick.

G.O seems to be a man of many consistencies. And when you are consistent, it does not mean you simply want to maintain a comfort level, or a status quo. No. To me, being consistent shows a sign of deep loyalty, reverence and respect to people, work, an idea…or, for G.O, a song.

I should have been prepared. I knew it was inevitable. But much like the majority of his legion of fans, news of G.O’s military enlistment came as a complete blindside. At 2PM, Korean Standard Time, on Thursday, February 18, 2016, our gentle soulful soldier man officially arrived to the training camp in Nonsan, Chungnam Province to begin his four week basic training.
And so it begins.

We all knew MBLAQ’s main vocal man was up to something. His mysterious Instagram posts were tantalizing yet revealed nothing solid in way of exactly what he was doing. Speculations were high. Since he is pretty much a triple threat when it comes to entertainment (sing, act, dance), anything was possible and he, more than capable. The reveal came today a little past 11:00AM KST and it was every bit as exciting as we thought it would be!
All packages have been sent (recipient, nominator, nominee). I can only hope that all on the receiving end who never confirmed receipt did in fact receive their packages safely (some are still in transit). The packages left my care with a hug, a kiss, and a smile. From there, they were on their own to arrive to their final destinations. I have to say, I enjoyed putting each and every one of the packages together. It was indeed a labor of love. However, I am happy and extraordinarily relieved the event is over.
