Musing While Cruising the Hallyu Highway
G.O on a variety program with the word golden in the title? Yes, that seems to make complete sense to me. To be honest, I am not 100% sure what this program is about, but what I do know is that there were some lovely golden G.O moments to enjoy in any event on the KBS network show, Golden Camera.

Remember when you attached yourself officially to a bias and then began to scour the internet for anything about him (or her)? I have not even scratched the surface of all that is out there on this charming guy, but I am certainly grateful that I have not broken my internet yet with all of the research I have been doing these past 121 days. That said, I remember coming across this particular fan cam (oh, I am adding another subtitle segment called “Fan-Camming” and this is my first post for that sub) and was immediately held captive by G.O’s endearing fan service.

Ok, so even though I say that I am happy that I came to the MBLAQ party late in the game because I am not sure I would have been able to handle all of the OMG G.O moments real-time, I will confess that I really, really, REALLY wish I could have watched each and every episode of his Immortal Song 2 performances as they were being broadcast. Not only to take the journey to the depths of his heart via song, but also to enjoy his many moments interacting with the other vocalists, the audience, commentators and MCs.

Give the tender G.O four and a half minutes of your time and I guarantee he will melt and rearrange the DNA of your heart. His final performances on Immortal Song 2 were perhaps his most poignant and moving. Maybe I am overly emotional lately. Or, maybe I am just missing him because when I watch his performance of 사랑스런 그대 [Lovable You], it brings me to my emotional knees, so to speak.

The night of September 15, 2012 was so very, very special. It was legend Yoon Shi Nae night on Immortal Song 2 and all of the planets aligned in G.O’s favor when he took the stage to sing the very haunting, 사랑의시 [Love’s Poetry].

On August 7, 2011, G.O appeared on the SBS music competition show, 1000 Song Challenge and gave us a preview of 너에게로도 디시 [To You Again], the song he would compete with on Immortal Song 2 just one month later. The difference between the two shows however is that for IMS2 he was able to prepare. For 1000 Song Challenge, a karaoke machine randomly chose the song for him which he then had to sing from memory with no preparation or rehearsal. It did not matter.

Do you ever watch G.O and get lost in his forever playfulness? *Sigh* The early days following debut were the best. I still go back and forth emotionally wishing I was there from the beginning but understanding that when I discovered this gem of a man, it was exactly when I was supposed to arrive to the fandom. Still, being able to have experienced the early variety days real-time had to be pretty much priceless. Day 86 has me traveling back to the Y era and GOMTV’s Making The Artist.

If you recall from Episode 5 of MBLAQ’s reality/variety program Sesame Player, there was a segment where Seung Ho, G.O, Joon and Cheondung were going to enjoy a meal at home that was going to include the oft deemed precious main course of beef. This was serious business. Everyone wanted to eat, but no one wanted to cook. The only way to settle the decision was through challenge. And when the men of MBLAQ set out to challenge each other, hilarity ensued.

I admit that with G.O’s recent departure to the Army, I have been ruminating much over his early work and, as is evidenced here, writing about it. Because I enjoy the chemistry he shared with Jung Juri, I am going to drop little moments of the two of them here throughout these next 680 days, sort of like the one shots. For the first G.O~Juri moment, I am choosing one of my faves. ~^^

Wow…….it has now been 40 days since G.O began his military service. I know some of his loving fans are probably thinking time is crawling, but I assure you, it is moving fast! For this lovely 40th day, I am returning to the Immortal Song 2 stage and will allow him, along with his partner in ballad crime, Lim Jeong Hee, to shatter your hearts with the beautiful 사랑보다 깊은 상처 [A Wound Deeper Than Love].
