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! ~.^
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!
By October 2013, G.O had made appearances in two dramas that aired that same year. Come November he was set to have his last Immortal Song 2 performance AND see the release of his second digital single, Play That Song. He had a lot going on so it was nice that K Culture decided to feature the charming men of MBLAQ in the pages of their magazine in mid-autumn 2013.
If there is one thing I am certain of after watching MBLAQ’s Hello Baby, it is that when the time comes for G.O to be a parent to his own children, he is going to ace daddy-hood. And yes, I am well aware of the fact that Hello Baby is a reality/variety show and that the men of MBLAQ were ‘appas’ for the purpose of entertainment. Nevertheless, there were still some genuine parenting moments the men faced and G.O proved he was up to the task.
Part of idol culture is to periodically make appearances at award shows, movie or television drama premiers, press conferences and the occasional product or service launch party. So in addition to being able to see your bias on the stage or listen to him (or her) via the magic of digital recording, seeing them out and about at various events gives a added boost of excitement, and usually some pictures and potentially some video footage.
As much as I am missing G.O these days, I am at least grateful that Hello Baby is filled with so many adorably sweet and entertaining moments of him to look back on and enjoy. I am relatively confident I will be able to eke out quite a few more of those moments over the course of these next 622 days. Remember the Bibimbap Song?
I guess you can call me sentimental. Two years ago today I experienced my very first MWave online meet and greet with MBLAQ. I was working long hours in New Orleans that week for my job, and did not think I would be able to stay awake long enough to watch the show. Scheduled at a decent 2:00 PM KST hour, that translated to midnight my time. But the moment I saw G.O with his hair freshly sheared, goatee-d in a fedora wearing a t-shirt with the goddess Venus de Milo on the front of it (a definite shout out to his goddesses), I was wide awake and ready to watch the fun begin.
For Day 93, I said to myself: Ok, I challenge you, Michele. Pick a random episode from Sesame Player, watch it, and find one thing in that episode to write about for Day 93 of G.O’s service. I wanted something short, sweet and silly. I found such a moment in Episode 11.^^
Just thought I would share some of the love and excitement I did receive in response to the Merry MBLAQ Christmas Packages event not included in my previous post ~ so much happy! The excitement was all the solace I needed to know the event was a success!~♥
Greetings! The nominating period for the Merry MBLAQ Christmas Package event has now closed! A million thank yous to all who have sent in nominations. It exceeded my expectations. I was very touched by all of the beautiful thoughts and words shared, and especially the love. I am so proud to be a part of this fandom and of the camaraderie between us all. More importantly, however, is the love and support we all share for our beloved MBLAQ, Lee Joon and Cheondung.
As a reminder, my merry elves and I will take the next week to deliberate over who will receive the packages. I can assure you it will not be an easy task as there were many nominations, all of them special and deserving! On November 23rd, I will post the names of the recipients and will be in touch with either them, or their nominators. Finally, during the week of December 1st, the packages will be sent out.
Thank you again to all who participated!
To get into the holiday spirit, let’s revisit the delightful White Forever ~~~ ahhh, these five beautiful angels!
Happy Holidays, my lovelies!♥
