I SAW SON GA-IN AND SHINEE IN THE SAME DAY, MY LIFE IS COMPLETE

So today I spent an obscene amount of time waiting in front of the MBC building but in the end it was totally worth it~
Today started at 7am, getting up and ready, waiting for my unnie to pick me up from the dorms.  She ended up a little late and after driving around in many circles, we finally arrived at MBC around 9:30.  The lines were already formed by then (according to fan club) with SHINee's of course, being the longest.



I think this was taken after the show, but it gives you the same sense of...crowdy-ness? that was going on before it started.

My unnie is a huge Son Ga-in fan, so we queued with them, originally planning to watch her prerecording and then leave before the main show started.  I guess I was giving off awkward foreigner vibes cause my unnie dragged me over to another group of foreigners and was like "hey, go play with them."



Which lead to me making some new and awesome friends~  One from Singapore and one from France :3

We waited together until 11 when a staff member came out to tell us there was something wrong with the set that made it impossible for us to see Ga-in even if we went inside WTH, shouldn't they have had the foresight to cancel the fan event if they knew we couldn't see her? <<;; buuut that actually worked out for the better because we were allowed to come back and watch the main show 8D

The next meet time was 2:30 so we all wandered off to have lunch together and damn, Ga-in fangirls are just about the nicest fangirls I've ever met.  They're usually a bit older which might explain why they're nicer and generally less hysterical than the average fangirl.  And! they treated us to lunch ㅠㅠ



And Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf *3*  While we were waiting one of them showed us her sketchbook...look at this awesomeness!!!! askfjashf why am I not also skilled enough to render Jo Kwon's 'o shet' face so accurately?! ;____;

On the way back they dropped off pizza and snacks for Ga-in's entire staff which, as sweet as it sounds, is also kind of ridiculous if you think about doing it three times a week every week :x



They let us in around 3:30, the SHINee fanclub first, I think because Key and Taemin were guest hosts today (more on them later 8D) and holy shit, that line was never-ending!  I swear, at least one third of the auditorium was all blue lights and blue balloons.  Shawol, WHY SO MANY?!  But we were actualy the second group to get in and once I was seated (first row of the second section, smack dab in the middle) I spent about five minutes hyperventilating because I COULD SEE TAEMIN. RIGHT. THERE

(If you don't already know, there's a little stage on the side for the hosts to say cute, random things between songs)  They were in the dark for the performances but when the camera was on them their spotlight would go on and HOT DAMN, blonde is your color Taemin *____*  when the lights are on him it creates this kind of unearthly halo of cuteness and godliness and perfection, I'm talking effing rainbows and sparkles like, Jesus or something, idek 탬느님~ ㅠㅠ

And it was entirely Key's fault that I missed Miss A's rehearsal AND main stage because I was too busy watching him dance along instead of watching them >_<  Kim Kibum, you are too adorable

The other performances were pretty good, FT Island is pretty nice live..I watched the 2PM comeback, the running dance amuses me 8D  I wanted to try to enjoy the Beast perf but ended up getting distracted by all the epic lighting, so epic *__*  BoA did Copy and Paste and her fangirls are a little bit insane, they kept screaming 어디 가? 같이가!! when she was about to leave (but I guess that's better than me wanting to take Taem home with me ;__;)

Then SHINee came on stage I was just about ready to pee my pants, really, because an Americano for breakfast and green tea frap after lunch is never a good idea...so I spent a lot of the time squirming in my seat, CURSE YOU SMALL BLADDER.  But yes, SHINee came on but they did a pre-recording (on a special set, in chairs 8D) so they were basically just on stage for the fans while their recording played "live" on tv.  Onew (predictably) sang along the most, Taemin did a little dance and Minho kind of just stood there and bobbed along to the music which might have been awkward if it wasn't so cute DX.  I FINALLY GOT TO SEE THEIR FACES, I'M PROUD THAT I DIDN'T START CRYING THEN AND THERE :<  Key looked fine in spite of his recent trip to the hospital but Jonghyun had to limp off stage ㅠ_______ㅠ get better soon my favorite derpy dinosaur~



This is what the stage looked like.  I really should've asked my friend to take a picture of SHINee but I was too busy mouthbreathing and trying to wave at taemin and pawing hysterically at my other friend's arm, the poor girl.

After I ran to the bathroom, Ga-in came on and HOLY CRAP, she's the only girl I'd cheat on my wife for (here's to hoping she doesn't read this part 8D)  Though, she didn't have the blue eye shadow..probably for the better cause who knows what kind of embarrassing and/or illegal things I would've done then @__@ her song was also cut short because of the pre-recording but she did do tango part of her choreo */////*

At the end of everything, Taemin and Key said good bye and when the lights went off Taemin threw his hands up in celebration and I died.
HELLO NEW AND FOREVER BIAS



Oh, and I wasn't here for this but apparently the fangirls wait for their idol's cars to drive by and then chase after them, lol
