[Variety] Immortal Song 2 - Episode 25

Line up: Huh Gak, Kang Min Kyung, G.O., Hyorin, Park Jaebeom, Lee Hongki, ALi

Legend:

It's the King of Kings Special. The line up are all previous winners of the program, and they will compete using the song they sang on the time they won. I'm excited for this episode because I'm looking forward to seeing the previous singers of the show. ^^

Kim Gura and Moon Heejun are picking the match they wanted most to see, it's Hyorin and ALi, a battle between two strong performers. Also Huh Gak and Min Kyung, since it's her last stage on the show, everyone wishes that they will hug on stage finally. =P

Huh Gak's winning song is "All Things" by Songgolmae. He sang it rock this time and his vocals are flawless and he even added some b-boy moves in the dance break. I just wish he did some jumping too to make it more fun. =)

ALi chose to sing "Dawn Rain" by Hye Euni among her 3 winning songs. She made it into a dance song with full choreography. Dancing is not really her strength which I think is why she wants to challenge it more.

G.O.'s winning song is Kim Suhui's "I Can't Forget". I love it when he said he missed Jaebeom the most, their friendship is so cute. ^^ I personally love the smooth jazz feel he put into the song. =)

Hongki's winning song is "The Man From Shinsadong" by Ju Hyeonmi. He's performing with his band again and they made the song into a classic band ballad that turned out really nice.

Hyorin chose her first winning song which is Shim Subong's "The Man From Back Then". She did it exactly the way she does best, sexy with strong vocals.

Min Kyung's winning song is Kim Kwangseok's "Knowing I Should Forget". It's her favorite song which I think made it more meaningful for her and it shows in her performance. She really put all her heart into the song as she sing.

Jaebeom's winning song is "Please Don't Change" by Nam Jin. He sang it in his own style which is hip hop and R&B. It sounds really good and he did great adding the dance, but sadly I don't think the older generation will be able to relate to it.

[Variety] Happy Together S3 - Episode 218

Guests: Park Ye Jin, Kim Soo Ro, Ji Hyun Woo, Im Won Hui, Park Jaebeom

It's a mini reunion of "family" members Jaesuk, Sooro and Yejin. =) The guests are the cast of the movie "Mr. Idol". Hyunwoo is also the new guy in the 2nd season of Invincible Youth. I'm just glad to see Jaebeom back in variety shows, I used to really love watching him because he's so funny and not afraid to make fun of himself. ^^

Jaebeom being a real idol was asked if the movie is the same with real life. Born and raised in the US, Hyunwoo thought Jay's attitude was disrespectful the first time he met him, but he found out later that it's just his personality, he's very honest.

Soo Ro asked the netizens to encourage the artists instead of posting negative comments because they may seem like they're living a glamorous life but they're human too and each have their own problems to deal with as well.

Legend: Nam Jin

It's sadly the last episode for 5 of the singers and only Huh Gak will come back next episode.

2nd - Hyorin with "A Kind Heart". She performed the song with strong vocals and very sexy choreography.

3rd - G.O. with "Aching Heart". He sang it full of emotion, like he's really in pain. Seungho even came to cheer on G.O., supportive leader. =)

5th - Kyuhyun with "With My Love". He's doing a dance version of the song. We get to see "Dance-Kyu" doing a Michael Jackson. ^^

[Variety] Immortal Song 2 - Episode 14

Challengers: Hyorin, G.O., Jiyoon, Kyuhyun, Jaebeom, Huh Gak.

Legend: Nam Jin

The Rival Match this episode is pretty interesting, it's "Dance vs. Ballad". =) Hyorin, Jaebeom, and Jiyoon chose dance, while G.O., Kyuhyun, and Huh Gak chose ballad. They're also given the choice to pick their own songs that they think they will do well in.

1st round - Hyorin vs. G.O.

Hyorin chose "My Name" by Boa. She's a really good stage performer, the song has dance from start to finish which she did really well, plus she's also singing live the whole time.

G.O. chose "Back To You Again" which he sang with full emotion. I'm not familiar with the song but I can clearly see that G.O. poured out so much feelings in singing the song. Really great!

2nd round - Jaebeom vs. Huh Gak

Jaebeom chose "Look Back At Me". I think he really put everything he does best in this performance. He sang R&B style to control his vocals, but danced full force in the dance break and even adding b-boy which he does best at the end. ^^

Huh Gak chose "You Are The One For Me" to showcase his vocal range. He has a very pretty voice that fits ballad so well. This round's voting depends on personal preference because I think both did very well.

3rd round - Jiyoon vs. Kyuhyun

Jiyoon chose "Coming Of Age" which is a very popular song back in the day. She's not one with very strong vocals but she gave her best in this performance.

Kyuhyun chose "A Study Of Memory" with her sister in violin. He performed the song with an orchestra accompaniment that blends well with his voice. The ballad singers really belt it out to compete with all the dance the dance team did.

[Variety] Immortal Song 2 - Episode 13

Challengers: Hyorin, G.O., Jiyoon, Kyuhyun, Jaebeom, Huh Gak.

Legend: Kim Wan Sun - Korea's Madonna

Jaebeom won in the first competition so he got the chance to choose when he wants to sing. To the surprise of everyone, he chose to sing first! It's the first time that anyone chose to sing first because going first makes you most nervous and give you the least chance of winning. But being the cool guy that he is, Jaebeom chose to go first. =)

1st - Jaebeom singing "Happy Day" in the version he's most comfortable with, R&B. He added some rap in English as he usually does. Pretty nice version. =)

2nd - Jiyoon singing "The Clown Laughs At Us". She did a great stage with full choreography. I notice that her voice has become stronger and steadier. Her vocals still has room for improvement but I'm happy to see that she's doing her best. =)

3rd - Hyorin singing "Too Lonely To Dance Alone" in another sexy and powerful performance.

4th - Huh Gak singing "Dancing To The Rhythm" making it into a ballad version.

5th - G.O. singing "Tonight" in a very nice Jazz version. I'm surprised with his voting results.

6th - Kyuhyun singing "The Masquerade". When I saw Kyu with dark eyeliners, I'm really curious what he prepared. It's a rock performance and it's great! ^^

[Variety] Immortal Song 2 - Episode 12

Challengers: Hyorin, G.O., Jiyoon, Kyuhyun, Jaebeom, Huh Gak.

Legend: Kim Wan Sun - Korea's Madonna

The introduction with the legend is really funny! ^^

Theme for this episode is "Summer Vacation With Friends". The challengers are paired up with another celebrity for their performance. They're going with the rivals method again by internet voting on who will go against whom.

1st round - Jiyoon vs. Huh Gak

Jiyoon with Gong Hyeong Jin are singing "Life Is". They rock the stage with the rock version.

Huh Gak with Lee Si Young chose "One And A Half" and went for the cute concept. =)

2nd round - Kyuhyun vs. G.O.

Kyuhyun with Kim Min Jong singing the song "With You". Super Junior helped Kyuhyun with the choreography to make it more fun and I think it really worked. ^^

G.O. with Cho Yeo Jeong chose a very fun song, "Let's Go On A Trip". The couple look is cute.

3rd round - Hyorin vs. Jaebeom

Hyorin with Hyun Woo chose the song "Don't Leave Me". They both sing quite well but they have trouble with their harmony. =S

Jaebeom with Solbi, Kim Soo Ro and Jang Hyuk singing "Tell Me". It's really nice that Jaebeom's seniors came to help him out. It's a really fun performance. =)

[Variety] Immortal Song 2 - Episode 11

Challengers: Hyorin, G.O., Jiyoon, Kyuhyun, Jaebeom, Huh Gak.

Legend: Kim Soo Hee

With the new challengers came a new rule, the winner from the preliminaries can choose when to sing during the performance, unlike before that they will have to decide beforehand. I wish they just took the rules from the preliminaries, the "rival" method. I think it's more fair to choose a final winner from the 3 who already won.

1st singer is Jaebeom to sing "Yearning". He looks like he's loosing his mind on the way to the stage, LOL! XD It sure is nerve wracking to be the first to sing, and it's his first time in the main competition too. He changed the song and made it into R&B, it's actually pretty nice. I think Jaebeom may be one of the weaker singers of the list but he makes up for it with his passionate performance.

2nd picked is Huh Gak singing "Sorrows". I'm kinda glad the new challengers got picked to sing first. His version is very emotional, like a drama ost. But the choir in the background made it sound like a church song, I'm not sure if they go together. =S I didn't get to watch him in Superstar K, but I guess his strong point is singing ballads? He's really good at it.

3rd is Hyorin with the song "The Seoul Woman". After losing for a number of weeks straight, she went back to what she does best, belting it out with her powerful voice and matching it with energetic sexy dance. =)

4th singer is Kyuhyun with "Too Much". We know his a very good singer but his throat is in a very bad condition on the day of the competition so he's struggling with every note as he sings. I think he still did quite well.

Jiyoon chose to sing 5th with the song "The Southbound Train". She went for retro dance for her version and it's pretty cute. ^^ I think what she improved on in this show is she's opening up her vocals more now.

Last to sing is G.O. with "I Can't Forget". He haven't won yet so like Hyorin, he just go for his strengths. The song sounds jazzy with nice band accompaniment, and he depended mainly on his vocals for this performance.

[Variety] Immortal Song 2 - Episode 10

Challengers: Hyorin, G.O., Jiyoon, Kyuhyun, Jaebeom, Hug Gak.

Legend: Kim Soo Hee

The summer specials are over and their back with 3 new challengers, Super Junior's Kyuhyun, Jaebeom and Huh Gak. The first challenge is "Old and New Idols Joint Performance". They invited 6 first generation idols, Moon Hee Jun, Son Ho Young, Kan Mi Yeon, Goo Jun Yeop, Hong Jonggu, and DJ DOC to sing together with the current challengers. They're performing by order of "rivals".

First Round - Hyorin vs. Huh Gak
Hyorin and DJ DOC sang "Love is Still", it's fun and Hyorin fits right in with the guys.
Huh Gak and Hong Jonggu chose the song "What I Wanted From You". Huh Gak's voice goes from soft to strong with the high notes, nice!

Second Round - Jiyoon vs. Kyuhyun
Jiyoon and Goo Jun Yeop chose "I", a really popular song back then, with full choreography. They sure worked hard for that number.
Kyuhyun and Son Ho Young is singing "Lies", took out all the rap from the original song and made it into R&B. Kyuhyun sure is one of the most popular Super Junior member, foreign fans from the audience even stood up to cheer for him. ^^

Third Round - G.O. vs. Jaebeom
G.O. and Kan Mi Yeon are doing "Killer", turned it into latino and added ballroom dancing to it.
Jaebeom and Moon Hee Jun sang the very cute H.O.T. song, "Candy". Hee Jun and Jay are both cracking me up with their humor, lol! XD There sure is a reason why you need 5 people to sing that song. ^^ I think what gets Jay misunderstood a lot is his carefree attitude, he doesn't hide his awkwardness under a smile and just acts cool about it. But I hope he'll smile more, he sure looks a lot better showing those pearly whites. =)

Jay Park in Manila Fanmeet

It's a bit late because I've been out of the country for a vacation. It took me quite some time to upload my fancams. Thanks to my good friend, I was able to attend the fanmeet in VIP section so it's pretty good. =)

The fanmeet lasted around 2 hours and every body had a blast. It's an enjoyable event and I'm glad I was able to witness it. ^^ I have to apologize in advance for my fancams are a bit shakey, we're all standing and I have to raise my hand above my head to capture Jay above all the fans in front. My arms got tired along the way and I have to change holding the cam from one hand to another. =S


First song that Jay sang while coming out is "Nothing on You"/ "Count on Me".


Jay sang a duet with his friend and some other friends of his also performed while he went back stage for a quick change.

Jay Park - Demon


Jay Park and AOM - Dance Medley - I specially enjoyed the "Madonna" and Miss A parody, LOL! =P


They had a question and answer with Jay, then a quiz game with AOM and a B-Boy dance battle with a local B-Boy group.

Jay's cover of "You Got It Bad" where he ripped off his shirt and the fangirls scream like there's no tomorrow! LOL! XD

Jay Park Fanmeet

News just got out that Jay Park is going around Asia for a series of fanmeets to thank his fans for the love and support he received all this time. The tour will cover 8 cities starting in Seoul end August until the month of September. The 8 cities will include Seoul, Taipei, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore.

I'm personally surprised that Philippines is included in the tour. I'm sure lots of Jay fans here in our country will be so happy! =)

Top Asian Promoters
to Produce Jay Park Fan Meets

Fan Meets in 8 Cities Confirmed for Late August and September with Kickoff in Seoul

July 6, 2010, International – Jay Park better known to his fans in Asia as Park Jaebeom will be working with Asia’s top music promoters to launch his solo fan meets tour in September. The fan meets kick off in Seoul on August 28th and go on to Taipei, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore throughout the month of September.

“We are very pleased to make this announcement,” said Tinzar Sherman, official management representative for Jay Park. “The fans have been so patient and supportive of Jay. He wants to take the opportunity during the fan meets to thank all the fans for their unwavering support, and is looking forward to making it a lot of fun.”

The idea of the fan meets has been in development since May when several top promoters approached Jay’s management about the possibility of doing fan meets for Jay in their own countries. There are discussions about expanding the tour to additional cities in Asia and North America.

Jay will be bringing his dance crew AOM to the various fan meet locations, where he will perform songs, choreograph special dance sequences and play games with the fans. Jay and AOM will also battle top local bboy crews in a friendly exchange to promote youth culture in each country.

“I am blessed to have such incredible fans. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to go on the road and meet with you in so many great cities. I hope to make you proud,” said Jay Park.

Fan meet schedule will be posted on Jay Park’s official website www.jaypark.com/fanmeet.html and full details of each stop will be announced on the site by around the middle of July.

Jay Park to Go Back to Korea

from www.jaypark.com

Jay is going back to Korea for the shooting of his movie "Hype Nation" on June 18th. And instead of a press conference, he wrote something in his website for his fans and everyone to clear the air before he goes back.

I'm personally anxious as to what will greet Jay when he arrives in Korea. I really hope things will be good and everything will be okay. To lighten things up, here's a new upload from Jay in his youtube channel - Jay's pants on the ground, lol! XD
