As you know, last weekend was very busy for our dear Jang Keun Suk and eels visiting Koera for attending Lotte FM, charity bazaar at L’inoui shop and ‘Produce 101’ live filming. My eel friends luckily attended ‘Produce 101’ live filming in Seoul on February 21st, and our Hazy wrote her lively FA here. Thanks Hazy! I wish I could have been there with you. Maybe next time?? kk

Truly blessed to be able to attend live filming on 21/2, watching last night(February 26th)’s episode brought back many wonderful and “not-so-great” memories :p
It was my first time in a live recording, first time watching our prince as a MC live, each time he appeared on the stage, we had a full view of his every single moves and actions. He too had a good view of all the audience, and with his usual deep voice and glances…. Those moments can kill!
After the recording, I admired him even more. This boy, who just held a FM the night before, stayed till past midnight to get his bazaar sale ready at Linuoi, appeared in the bazaar that very same day and transformed into a great salespeople for a full 5 hours without rest!!! He then rushed to the studio for recording which ended again past midnight (when the voting sessions ended and audience could leave, it was already 1130pm, they probably continued recording the part where all the girls stood below the stage where we were and JKS announced the top in each group).
I wasn’t at the FM, I didn’t queue over the night for Linuoi, and for a fair bit of time at Linuoi I was hiding in coffee bean from the cold…. Yet this trip made it to the TOP of my “most torturing” moments of Sukgrimage! Stood and queued in the cold from 4-730pm when the sun is setting and with strong wind blowing then (Singapore is a place where the average temperature is 30 degrees Celsius, throughout the year with no 4 seasons!) so sub zero temperature is FREEZING COLD to me….. In this 3.5 hours, the only moment I forgot about the cold was when his car drove past us eels, who lined along the road to cheered and welcomed him at the recording venue!!
That’s not all the standing.. When we got into the studio, it’s more standing!!!! But at some point, we actually sat on the floor as our legs are breaking and sore. During the recording, no food is allowed, we were not even allowed to freely exit for toilet breaks!! (Siew Hin will proudly brag how she managed not to go to the toilet from 5pm-12mn – 7hours in all!!) The production is truly professional, there must have been at least 7 huge cameras and many more mobile ones in the studios. We signed an agreement prior to entering the studio, not to take pictures or recordings during the show. During the show, they paused the recording, and cameras zoomed in on 2 guys, whom we saw subsequently got escorted out by security as they took pics with professional cameras. There were moments where security will squeeze through the crowd and go to someone checking their phones when they got suspicious.
Our prince – we could all tell – was very tired too (recap the events he had prior to this)!! At times he would rotate his head, stretched himself a little on stage, yet throughout the filming, he exhibited total professionalism, and still shine so brightly on the stage, which made my tiredness looks so small in comparison! He would, from time to time, screen through the audience, and we know he is spotting his eels!! We, as eels, kept low profile, given this is not his individual show, and didn’t want to distract him as he was actually working then.
side notes: the recording studio was filled with youths probably in their teens, both boys and girls, so, we probably looked a little out of place keke. When those boys cheered, and boy they really do CHEER their lungs out, I started to ponder if that’s how we eels looked when we cheered for our Prince! LOL

This tireless boy!!
Thanks for sharing sissies, and thanks to all of the eels who are all around for this kind of events, so fare away for some of us eels to be able to show up, but you all are always there for him, many thanks…
Master of eels and eels alike are really hardworking and have great stamina!!!!
DAEBAK!!!
Thanks for sharing these valuable moments of/with AP with us who could not be there with you/him
We get to see nothing comes for free for our man…but he is such passionate man he will manage gracefully
Many thanks for sharing^^
It was the first time we got to stare at him for 4 hours straight!
And he would stand still at the same spot – not running, jumping around – so we could just focus on him.
Wow. This fan account is amazing. Sometimes i feel my crazyness is nothing before u all. Although i miss him I can only pray for him, feel more greedy for him, feel proud for him, or get inspiration from him. But u all even share his tiredness. That is the power of love. GREAT EELS OF A GREAT STAR. This love is the greatest *JACKPOT* for such a hard working, passionate and a superbeautiful man. *DAEBAK*
Thanks for sharing,you are an amazing eel to our master
Thank you so much
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful fan acount. Since this is so great, I translated it to share with Japanese eels. Here’s the link to my translation. https://twishort.com/Xbckc
I will post it to my Ameblo later.
Anyway thank you so much for giving me and Japanese eels an opportunity to experience your wonderful (but hard for your legs) day!!
Hi! I’m wondering if you attended Jks’ Lotte FM on February 20th. It was meant for only Japanese Eels, wasn’t it?
It would be awesome if you could share your fan account [or any Blue Eel’s experience] on this blog. I’m interested to know whether Suk mentioned anything about his role in his upcoming drama.
Hi! Thank you so much for giving me a message!
Too bad! I didn’t attend JKS’ Lotte FM. However on my twitter I translated into English what I heard about it (Japanese eels’ experiences) and What JKS said.
Yes, the FM was meant for only Japanese eels, however, I heard some Chinese eels attended, too.
Here I’ll just copy all of my tweets:
In the 1st ep of Daebak JKS appears in only 1 scene. No appearence in the 2nd, either (describing his childhood). He’ll be in the 3rd!!
After completing Daebak JKS’ll release his single CDs in Japan, one CD every 2 months.
In Daebak JKS wears no wig, maybe uses hair extensions. Appears in only 1 scene in the 1st ep. Starts appearing at the end of the 3rd ep.
JKS’ll start going to action school next week (it means the week starting on Feb 22). A lot of violent actions included in the drama. He’ll ride a horse, too.
JKS hasn’t practiced singing (for the FM or whatever) since Live in Japan concerts last Nov. A few days ago he went to karaoke ＆ practiced. Said he did a pretty good job.
Yesterday (Feb 19) JKS watched Produce 101 at home, drank some (or a lot of ?) beer ＆ slept for over 9 hours! He’ll be so busy soon!!
JKS said: “Hard to describe Dae-gil. My former roles in historic dramas were a student, a son of a rich family and a king. Dae-gil is a humble commoner, a person in the lowest rank, but will turn to be the one who tries to protect his country and its future at the risk of his life. He’s a great gambler.” JKS’s never gambled, so now he’s learning how to play porker and any other gamblings from watching DVDs. (*｀艸´)ヽ(；▽；)ノ
This is what JKS said in his FM closing speech. “Since I haven’t sung for some time I got really nervous. Today this Lotte event much more eels took part in than any of the other Lotte events in the past and I really felt a very warm, rather hot atomosphere. Thank you so much for coming and seeing me here in Soeul all the way from your countries. As soon as finishing the shooting of Daebak I’ll come to Japan to see you guys (to give my shows)!”
JKS gave a lot of throwing kisses when he walked away.
That’s all what I heard. How do you like it? (#^.^#)
On my twitter I try to translate info on JKS into English as much as I can. So if you’re interested, please follow me. Marchneko-chan @yachan19870804
(≧∇≦)b Have a nice day!! o(^▽^)o
Dear Yayoi,
Thank you so much for sharing!!
MY great pleasure!! (≧∇≦)b
I just want to share any of happy info on JKS with eels all over the world!!
Thanks so much for your reply! I had such a great time reading all the interesting info and details of what JKS said during the FM.
Wow! He even has to go to action school! Apparently, ‘Daebak’ is going to be an action-packed drama. I read on a drama blog that a senior actor has just been added to the cast, and his role is to teach Dae-gil martial arts!
Thanks for sharing, it make us more about our prince work hard.
I think our prince must appreciate his eels to support him under maturely.
Thanks for sharing this amazing FA..
So exciting to read the Produce 101 and the Twitter translation. Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing youre wonderful experience with our prince! Even your legs and feet get tired its woth it!
Hi! I would like to ask how did you get into the recording as I am trying to get into the current Produce X 101 recording.
