Translation of a fan account of Taemin’s performance at the Inkigayo Special Stage recording
They rehearsed once and performed 5 or 6 times for the recording.
I’m thankful to Inkigayo that I was able to watch Taemin so long.
At the start, the coffins were all opened up, so the performers could get in.
When Taemin pulled the handle under the coffin top, it was broken off.
Taemin was so embarrassed and asked staff for help.
Other performers already got in the coffins and had to wait for it to be fixed.
Taemin embarrassed looked so cute.
At rehearsal, Taemin danced so well while other guys were not dancing like on the real stage.
So I thought, Other guys are not dancing real while Taem dances so seriously even at rehearsal.
But I was wrong.
At recording, I realized Taem was not dancing in his full capacity at that time.
I felt sorry for thinking badly of other guys.
Taemin was very playful.
During the six-time recording, he kept opening his coffin a bit,
peeked out like in a baby’s ‘Peekaboo’ game and waved hi to us.
When fans shouted “Lee Taemin Fighting~” at a quiet break time,
Taemin stuck his hand out the coffin and waved to us.
At the ending, you know he stands with his arm raised.
He hurriedly covered his armpit with his other hand (a well-mannered guy!)
and did the greeting gesture like men do in Middle Ages.
What is too bad is…
In the last two performances, Taem changed the way he walked out of his coffin.
It was so charismatic. How come they didn’t show this?
He grabbed the coffin on his right side and walked out with his left hand waving around.
And he was such a professional.
He changed his solo part a lil bit every time…the way and direction to wave his arms and his forward steps.
He was the true champion of free style dance.
When it was over, he kept waving to us. So nice and cute.
though the Thriller (MJ) perf was really short, it was really good, all the dancers were awesome xD
and i found that i had a dilemma. when taemin wore eyeliner last time, i used to exclaim that i prefer his eyes without eyeliner, probably because it made him look like a girl very much. i was somewhat feeling better when he stopped wearing eyeliner for hello promotions. but during this special stage, he wore eyeliner, and it was so sexy >< i just thought, his eyes look so good with that eyeliner oomg. so what, do i like that eyeliner or not. O_O
it sucks to fall in love with someone you cannot have.
