blackandwhiteMet Sziyi at Raffles City (went to buy Taimei!) and we walked to the floating platform through Esplanade. Had a few mishaps along the way but we reached the place safely, towards the helix bridge area. There were a lot of people, Singaporeans are as smart as us, opting for free concerts instead of paying to get into the floating platform. Met a fangirl who, like us, not willing to pay to get into the concert. Like us, she would pay if it was dirt cheap ($50) but not when the prices of the tickets are so expensive and we are not even that ~crazy~ about kpop anymore so...
And then... it started, the rain. It started with a slight drizzle and gradually led to a really heavy downpour. We were contemplating on whether to continue waiting as RITS might cancel the concert. The rain caused all of us to leave our waiting areas to hide in the shelters while waiting for the rain to stop. Ironically, the rain has helped us to secure a better viewing position, a position much better than the initial spot that we were standing at. The whole episode lasted for about 2 hours, which means, the rain helped us to waste about 2 hours of our waiting time, making it less draining to wait rather than not knowing how to spend our time for that 2 hours.
It is a given that we were still quite far from the stage but the screens were really clear and we were able to witness most of the happenings from the screen. The positions that we are at might be on par, or even better than those who paid for the balcony seats (which costs about $218?). I was thankful, the rain was a blessing in disguise. However, it did lead to my socks and shoes getting wet (of which I removed them as soon as the rain stopped because it felt disgusting), bag getting wet, umbrella being destroyed by the strong wind, almost dying in the process and not being able to enjoy fully.
Another thing I found out about myself, I tend to talk a lot during concerts and when I am tired, I tend to speak gibberish for no apparent reason. I am definitely not the best concert partner if you want to watch concerts in peace. Throughout the whole show, I was commenting and talking about random stuff, screaming fanchants that actually strains my voice, waving the light sticks like a maniac when my favorite groups appeared, leaning forward in hopes of getting a better view.
Pushing and pulling was common in concerts, but this person next to me pushed me towards the other side and I didn't even realize that the bag in front of me was not mine anymore. She kept pushing as if her life depended on it and when I pushed back, she just pushed against me even harder (she is not a Singaporean). Then, there was a guy behind me that kept pushing me and dripping water on me. He was such a jerk. I turned back a few times to glare at him and he took no hint. I almost wanted to kick him in his shins. A kid, about 6 years old, who stood next to that guy just kept stepping on my foot. Can you imagine this whole experience? It was practically the worst out of all concerts I have attended! But then again, I am watching a free concert so I can't complain.
After it ended, we gathered our things, mine with much difficulty, and went to the side at which most people were squealing and screaming and yelling. We could see the artistes board their vans to get back to their hotel or going to another place for food. Squinting and looking out for TVXQ and SHINee, we saw TVXQ but the rest of the people were just make-up artistes, managers, SNSD, Super Junior, etc. Left to get a cab (but I called for help from my mum after I realized that it is difficult to hire a cab and it is expensive too), squeezing through the people to get to the pick-up/taxi point. Everyone smells like rain and perspiration, it was eeky but I smell like that too at that point of time, not complaining!
Setlist:
Removing the interludes cause they are basically the same video that was repeated for about 5 times? And I don't really remember when they play the interlude...
I remembered that one of the interludes, there was the part about trainees and they showed the red ocean. I teared. That interlude was before 'Only One" by BoA.
♫Hot Summer - f(x)
I am not very up to date to f(x) so I don't know this song. I do know the chorus though~ Hot Hot Summer~~
Introduction of f(x)
While everyone introduced themselves and spoke to us, Krystal just kept quiet. Amber actually grew out her hair!
♫Pinocchio - f(x)
My favorite song out of all the songs f(x) have released so far. Knowing the dance and dancing along with hand movements was fun. Everyone should try it!
♫Pine Tree + Polaris - Kangta
Ballad, after 2 upbeat songs. I love ballads so this was actually a plus point for me. Probably the only ballad throughout the whole of the concert!
Introduction of Kangta
He spoke in Mandarin and it sounded weird. At first, I thought he was speaking Korean until I realized that there are no translators at the start. Not enough screams for Kangta but then again, H.O.T. is not our era.
♫爱频率 - Kangta
Mandarin song, with mumbled lyrics. I can't understand his Mandarin conversational skills, what's more when he is singing? I gave up and just listened the the tune of the song. Makes me come to a realization that tune is everything in music, it is not the words.
♫今天你要嫁给我 - Zhou Mi (Super Junior-M) + Victoria (f(x))
It was a great surprise when the music played! I never expected this song (I never saw the set list beforehand) and well, if someone were to sing this song, definitely Zhou Mi and Victoria.
♫California Girls - Jessica Jung (SNSD) + Krystal Jung (f(x))
It wasn't a wow, and I wasn't paying much attention.
♫Just the way you are - Shim Changmin (TVXQ) + Cho Kyuhyun (Super Junior)
A song by Bruno Mars and I have to say, they pulled it off well. Screams for both of them were deafening, the words are not enunciated properly but hey, I have heard enough of Kor-glish to understand the words!
♫Oppa Oppa - Lee Donghae (Super Junior) + Eunhyuk (Super Junior)
Yay! It is just that Singapore fans are not enthusiastic enough to go "Oppa" at the right moment. Well, we are in Singapore. Can't expect much from us. Sigh.
♫History - EXO-K
First time ever listening to their songs. Not a deep impression but it wasn't like I had a bad impression either.
Introduction of EXO
And wow, so many people in the group. I was shocked. The greetings seemed never ending and screams were deafening for the guy who looks like Taemin. What is his name again?
♫MAMA - EXO-M
Uh huh, Chinese counterpart of the said group. I didn't really pay attention to this song. Was more of a hit and miss type of thing.
♫Devil's Cry - Kim Taeyeon (SNSD)
I have to say that her vocals are really good but... I still don't have a good impression of her.
♫Run Devil Run - SNSD
Probably one of their worst song to date. How this song got popular was something that I have never managed to found the answer to. Probably because they released this song at the peak of their career.
Introduction of SNSD
I didn't know who was who. Mixed up Seohyun and Yuri, Don't know which person is Tiffany and how Jessica looked alike to her. Probably the angle but it is still pretty shocking. Gasp!
♫Genie - SNSD
One of the nicest SNSD songs but I still can't unsee the dance so I fought back my giggle every time the chorus played.
♫Lucifer (Remix) - SHINee
Amazing, fantastic, and it rendered me speechless. Probably the turning point to the climax because everyone went into a frenzy at almost every performance after this.
♫Superman - Super Junior
It kind of sounded like some sort of sutra that was being chanted. It is not helping that I don't understand Korean so this whole song was a miss for me.
♫Don't Don - Super Junior
The first ever song from Super Junior that I knew. It wasn't Sorry Sorry (hey, they released Sorry Sorry after I like them okay. And I liked them till the kpop boom). It has been long since I last heard this song so I was quite excited.
♫Purple Line - TVXQ
I still prefer the Japanese version and the Japanese version kept playing in my head throughout the whole song! I can only sing to the Japanese version so I was all quiet in fear of singing the wrong words (in Japanese).
♫Ring Ding Dong (Remix) - SHINee
Much much better than the original version. Maybe I am too appalled by the original due to the many people who attempts to irritate me by playing it everywhere. No offence but hey, this song would have been a hit for me if it was not for the repeated plays everywhere.
♫Bonamana - Super Junior
Not a fan of this song, but I know this song. Cannot unsee the dance due to my sister but they didn't dance to this song.
♫Rising Sun - TVXQ
I am so used to listening to this song without the other 3 members. So used to it that it doesn't sound weird to me anymore.
♫Juliette (Remix) - SHINee
Cannot listen to this song normally again because of Pamela and Angshuang. This is bad. Very very bad.
Introduction of SHINee
In which Jonghyun talked about the blue screen and told us that they would be seeing us again on 8th December. Onew correcting the translator on the date of their concert almost immediately. It sounded too cute.
♫Love Like Oxygen (Remix) - SHINee
How long has it been since I listened to this song? Chair dance, flipping of jackets (except that they are not wearing jackets), being just amazing as they would. This is the last of the remixes that they would be performing. SHINee's stage presence was great throughout all their performances. Kudos!
♫Jet - f(x)
I started becoming tired and listless so I didn't pay much attention to this song. I was physically drained. I never knew attending concerts can be so tiring.
♫Open Arms - Ryeowook (Super Junior) + Onew (SHINee) + Chen (EXO-M) + Byun Baekhyun (EXO-K)
The only high part about this was Onew but I can't even get high. I forgot how the song actually sounds like. Remained tired throughout the rest of the performances.
♫Twinkle - TaeTiSeo
This song was a miss. Not much of an impression was made and I am not saying this just cause I don't like them.
♫DJ got us fallin' in love - TaeTiSeo + D.O. (EXO-K) + Lu Han (EXO-M) + Oh Sehun (EXO-K) + Park Chanyeol (EXO-K)
I love this song. And when I say love, I mean that I really love it. However, I love the original song and not the one that is sung by them. Sorry.
♫Like a G6 - Key (SHINee) + Kris (EXO-M) + Amber (f(x))
Key being a crazy key and he just rubbed his head and his hair went "BOOM". Hopefully someone managed to capture an image so you would see what I mean. He was so adorable.
♫Dance Battle - Jung Yunho (TVXQ) + Lee Taemin (SHINee) + Tao (EXO-M) + Kai (EXO-K) + Im Yoona (SNSD) + Kim Hyoyeon (SNSD) + Kwon Yuri (SNSD) + Victoria (f(x))
When Yunho came out, they actually played "O"! I was shocked and then the rest came behind him and I was all, "oh, I forgot it was supposed to be a dance battle". Wasn't able to witness much so I didn't really went goo goo over the performance.
♫Hurricane Venus - BoA
Well, Hurricane Venus. What more is there to say?
♫My name - BoA
I heard this song somewhere but I wasn't able to put my fingers into it. Kind of diappointing but well, BoA was not my era. Even though I do listen her songs, it wasn't like TVXQ's whose songs I could name by heard the music.
Introduction of BoA
She needs more yellow light sticks to support her. There was only 2 that I spotted. If I were to be going to these type of concerts again, I would bring a yellow light stick just for her. The crowd was unenthusiastic. Everyone must be tired by this time or just uninterested in BoA.
♫No. 1 - BoA
You're still my number one~ This song was one of the first songs I have listened from her. I forgot the first and definitely will not remember every song that I have listened to. This song made a deep impression so I remembered. Simple as that.
♫Sorry Sorry - Super Junior
I used to love this song so much before the kwave was in Singapore, then I started disliking this song. I still had fun singing along, though I wasn't that crazy as before.
Introduction of Super Junior
Eunhyuk with his Singlish, "I miss you la. I love you la." reduced us into piles of laughter. He was so hilarious and everything that he said, he just added a "la" at the back to make it sound Singlish. It is impossible to not crack up at his antics. This might be the reason why Super Junior is so popular. Siwon was missing. I didn't see him at all. But this might just be me.
♫太完美 - Super Junior-M
Oh god, their Mandarin is horrendous. I couldn't make out the words at all and the person next to me was singing out of sync to the song so the whole thing sounded pretty weird.
♫A-Cha - Super Junior
Not a fan of this song, one of their worst songs to date.
♫Mr. Taxi - SNSD
Probably the only listen-able song after Genie. I prefer the Japanese version though~
♫Internet War - Kim Jonghyun (SHINee) + Lee Taemin (SHINee)
This was literally mindf. Jonghyun learnt the art of fan service and all he does in this song is fan service and more fan service. Taemin has been learning and improve his skils of fan servicing. They have been mixing too much with Super Junior and probably Heechul was the one who instilled such ideas into them. Not complaining but at the same time, I CAN'T GET THAT IMAGE OUT OF MY HEAD.
This song stole the show. The screams were deafening, even more so than any other songs that were performed.
♫"O"-正.反.合. - TVXQ
I felt like the other 3 was still here. This is one of the only 2 songs that I could still feel their presence in. No more flower petals or powder at the start and I was quite disappointed. I miss them as five.
♫Mirotic - TVXQ
I could hear the backing tracks. I could hear Junsu. They never eliminated the voices of one part and oh god, I was spazzing like some maniac. Tears threatened to fall.
Introduction of TVXQ
I couldn't really hear them nor the translator but I know that there was something that Changmin said about fans being professional. Maybe it was due to the fact that we waited in the rain for them? Yunho was being ridiculously adorable about something but I forgot what he said. Hey, I was tired. Not enough red light sticks around though. The blue ocean took it al
♫Humanoids - TVXQ
OH.MY.GOD. This song blew me away. It is a much better track as compared to Catch Me and probably the nicest track out of all the new songs they have released in Korea so far. I could do without the auto tune but honestly speaking, they can't. Their voices are not strong enough for the removal of auto tune but I take what I can get!~
♫Why? (Keep Your Head Down) - TVXQ
Fan chants from the 2 of us. Screaming at the top of our voices, I was positive that the people next to us and behind us are freaked out by us. But hey, it is TVXQ we are talking about.
♫Gee - SNSD
I know the dance to this! And I still remember the dance to this. Even though I never liked this song, the irony.
♫Kissing You - SNSD
Probably not my favorite song but I would take this song rather than the cheerleaders' song.
♫Dancing Out - Super Junior
Nope, I don't know this song. No impression either.
♫Only One - BoA + Oh Sehun (EXO-K)
The rain started and we were all fumbling for ponchos, umbrellas, and missed the whole performance.
♫Electric Shock - f(x)
Oh, I like this song too! Maybe it is because of the repeated listen once every week for about a month? That would be 4 times though.
♫Sherlock - SHINee
This was amazing. My first time watching the live performance of Sherlock and I am amazed at their perseverance to continue dancing in the rain. It looks amazing. And definitely the best song after Replay that they have ever released. Now, if they would remove the "SHINee's back" part with something else, this song would be perfect.
♫The Boys - SNSD
Covered the poncho over our head because we don't really want to watch this performance. The rain was really heavy and we didn't want to make ourselves suffer to watch a performance by a group we don't even like.
♫Sexy, Free & Single - Super Junior
I don't know this song and thus, this song is thrown to the back of my head. Not much of a hit either.
♫Catch Me - TVXQ
We stayed, just because of this performance. It looks amazing live but I can't enjoy it fully because of the rain. My glasses got droplets of rainwater that obstructs my vision. The wind was so strong I almost died if it were not for the ponchos.
♫Hope - SMTOWN
Super Junior, being Super Junior, was the first to run out into the rain but the rain stopped in the middle of the song and the rest of the people walked out. There were some of them who acknowledged us and waved to us. It looked like SHINee and Super Junior but I am not so sure on that. Well, at least it was heartening to know that they know that we are there.
Concert started: 7.15PM, Friday, 23rd November 2012
Concert ended: roughly 11.15PM, Friday, 23rd November 2012
And then... it started, the rain. It started with a slight drizzle and gradually led to a really heavy downpour. We were contemplating on whether to continue waiting as RITS might cancel the concert.

Probably not my favorite song but I would take this song rather than the cheerleaders' song.
♫Dancing Out - Super Junior
Nope, I don't know this song. No impression either.
♫Only One - BoA + Oh Sehun (EXO-K)
The rain started and we were all fumbling for ponchos, umbrellas, and missed the whole performance.
♫Electric Shock - f(x)
Oh, I like this song too! Maybe it is because of the repeated listen once every week for about a month? That would be 4 times though.
♫Sherlock - SHINee
This was amazing. My first time watching the live performance of Sherlock and I am amazed at their perseverance to continue dancing in the rain. It looks amazing. And definitely the best song after Replay that they have ever released. Now, if they would remove the "SHINee's back" part with something else, this song would be perfect.
♫The Boys - SNSD
Covered the poncho over our head because we don't really want to watch this performance. The rain was really heavy and we didn't want to make ourselves suffer to watch a performance by a group we don't even like.
♫Sexy, Free & Single - Super Junior
I don't know this song and thus, this song is thrown to the back of my head. Not much of a hit either.
♫Catch Me - TVXQ
We stayed, just because of this performance. It looks amazing live but I can't enjoy it fully because of the rain. My glasses got droplets of rainwater that obstructs my vision. The wind was so strong I almost died if it were not for the ponchos.
♫Hope - SMTOWN
Super Junior, being Super Junior, was the first to run out into the rain but the rain stopped in the middle of the song and the rest of the people walked out. There were some of them who acknowledged us and waved to us. It looked like SHINee and Super Junior but I am not so sure on that. Well, at least it was heartening to know that they know that we are there.
