Singapore FM Update 1

by

The local organiser Colored Rhythms is releasing bits and pieces of tantalizing news via its Facebook page (as below). They announced today that there will be online ticketing, which makes it so much easier for overseas fans to purchase tickets. Anyone tempted by this to come to Singapore? In addition, the seating will be numbered, which means no more queueing for long hours before the event starts in order to get the best possible seat.

Of course, concerns were raised to Colored Rhythms about the capacity of the website to support the expected high online traffic. Heard that the ticketing website “Gatecrash” used for CN Blue’s sale of showcase tickets crashed the moment online sale opened and created numerous ticketing problems without any telephone support or service from the ticketing service provider (it must be related to their unlucky-sounding name). Colored Rhythms assured fans that they are not using Gatecrash and have taken note of the concern. In fact, Colored Rhythms is being so responsive to queries that I wonder how they have time to work.

JKS’ fan-meeting tickets have historically (almost?) always sold out on the first day of sales,

“News” Summary

by

Today is a day where making sense of all the news and thinking of what to write is giving me a headache ….. there are so many things happening, some good and some bad ….. so here are the “news”:

1. Backlash from Lounge H performance
2. Female lead for “You’re My Pet”
3. JKS 2011 Asia Tour Announcement by 18 Feb

(1) Backlash from Lounge H performance

All is not at peace today in Sukkie-land (that’s a word I coined to refer to the world of JKS and eels). We know that JKS took off his shirt during the last two Lounge H (LH) events for the encore, and you may already have heard from other sources that during the 14 Feb Lounge H event, JKS even revealed a bit of his butt line (I don’t know how to translate this!).

Some of Sukbar eels who had been following an online live broadcast of LH could not accept this ‘wild’ behaviour from JKS and posted negative comments about JKS:

The rehearsal on the 2nd day is over, and it’s about to start.

I don’t know whether tonight I can last until news of the 2nd Lounge H performance in Osaka come trickling in slowly via fans’ Twitter and Baidusukbar, because the strong cough medicine I’ve been taking for the past 2 days are making me very sleepy, despite the doctor’s assurance that the day-time medication is non-drowsy. I mean, I haven’t even taken the night-time medication yet, and I want to sleep at 9 pm, something which I haven’t done for the past 20 years or so, haha!

So here are the first few pics circulated today,

[11 Feb 2011] Lounge H in Osaka

by

A beautiful poster of Lounge H, with a beautiful message on it from Jang Keun Suk:

“It has always been my hope, in a space where I can feel everyone’s proximity, to enjoy our time together. In the cherry blossoms season in Japan, I hope my wish can be fulfilled. Jang Keun Suk’s legend is just starting. Please look forward to the future me.”

Fans at Lounge H today can take home this beautiful A4-sized poster – so envious!

Lounge H has already ended, and from Sukbar’s online broadcast gathered from fans’ Twitter, it seemed to be a wild, wet event… … wet on account of the alcohol being sprayed around, and with JKS and Kurt dancing their hot dance, drenched in alcohol. JKS also pulled his manager Kim and another fellow worker on stage to join their dance and during the encore, took off his shirt and splashed himself with water/wine(?). Frankly speaking, if everything goes well and I’m able to get my hands on a LH ticket for the Singapore event, I’m not sure whether my heart can take it! Too ‘hot’ for me!

JKS shared that he had finished his new album’s song recording last week, and he sang a small part of it at Lounge H. One new song in his album is
