The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 32

~ Michele ~ Leave a comment

While it is true that the bulk of the story in Seopyeonje was dark and tragic, there was definitely one moment of levity in the musical where G.O’s Dong Ho overflowed with a playfulness that was matched only by the resplendence of his smile. It was a moment of reprieve for both G.O and the audience from the early scenes of anguish and left the impression that the future looked bright for his troubled pansori-turned rock star character.

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 31

I want to touch people with my art. I want them to say ‘he feels deeply, he feels tenderly’.~ Vincent Van Gogh

Sometimes I would like to be able to say….’Remember all of those radio show appearances MBLAQ made in the early days following their debut?’ and then magically scan my brain for a specific date, or show, or song performed and pull it out of thin air to share. But I can’t, because I don’t remember. See, I came to the MBLAQ party late and missed out on so much. Still, I am fortunate because so many of those moments were captured on video, and those videos were subsequently uploaded somewhere in the vast cyber wasteland known as the internet! And, I have wonderful A+ to guide me (thank you for this one, M~)!

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 29

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.^^

February 17, 2018 ~ The Dream of a Distant Celebration

~ Michele ~ Leave a comment

I know….I know. He has only just left. But it is never too soon to plan a party, right? It has been 29 days since MBLAQ’s gorgeous main vocal G.O reported to training camp to begin his mandatory military service. On March 17th he will complete his basic training and officially move to an assigned public service post where he will serve out the remainder of his one year and 11 months in the ROK Army (not that I am counting or anything…^^).

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 28

~ Michele ~ 1 Comment

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.

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 25

~ Michele ~ Leave a comment

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.

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 24

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.
