Celebrating CNBlue!

Well, the concert is over and done with. And survey says...CNBlue is a hit in London!

According to a review in the Korean Times, it is "the best live K-rock gig" they've ever enjoyed. Considering this is the first time that a live K-PopRock band has ever played in Europe, it seems that CNBlue had made quite a first impression! Who's next? They're already asking for FT Island!

To celebrate their successful completion of their first European concert, I've complied a video playlist of sorts on this post which includes some of their most popular songs.

Please enjoy! And keep on rocking!

I'm A Loner




Love Girl



Hey You

CNBlue Stunned By Fans Awaiting at Airport

The members of CNBlue (minus bassist Lee Jung Shin, who is currently wrapping up a drama) were taken by surprise when they arrived at London's Heathrow Airport on Thursday, September 20th.

So were the airport security as they had only anticipated the initial 50 or so fans. But thanks to social networks, more fans flocked to the airport as soon as they knew that the band had arrived. A mass had arrived so fast, more than 400 fans, that security had a hard time escorting the young men safely to their transportation.

For those of you not in the know, South Korean K-PopRock band, CNBlue, is now in London for their concert on Saturday, September 22nd.

Fans and die hard Boices, pronounced as "voices" but beginning with a letter "b", (CNBlue's official fan club) will certainly be in for a treat. If their performance earlier in the United States was any indication, the young men of CNBlue are no ordinary boy band. They actually rock on the stage, actually interact with the audience, and not just "perform". They are the real deal.

I hope they get to perform a lot of Jung Yong Hwa's songs since he's been actively composing since promotions for their album, "Ear Fun", ended earlier this year. But I also hope they'll perform their oldies but goodies such as "Alone" and "Love Girl" for their fans.

I'll be interested to know how many times Leader Jung Yong Hwa screams "make some noise!" to all the attending fans. He seemed to love that expression! I'm sure he's added more expressions since then.

Get ready to rock, London!

Are you ready London?? Make some noiiise!! As I posted earlier, one of my favorite bands, CNBlue, will be holding it's first concert in London, England on September 22nd. That's this weekend already! How exciting!

The group is getting ready to leave South Korea. I'm sure the fab four has a great concert planned and I hope their fans in Europe mop up whatever tickets are left over.

The guys will be nervous being in a new country and all, so please be kind to them. And don't forget to rock out!

Jung Yong Hwa, Lee Jong Hyun, Lee Jung Shin, Kang Min Hyuk, hope you won't be scared. Have fun, do your best! CNBlue, hwaiting!

Park Tae Hwan- Fortunately There's Video

Wow...the London Olympics sure have gotten off to a rocky start. There were a couple of upsets within the first couple of days alone.

Swimming icon Michael Phelps didn't win gold in the Men's 400m Individual, he didn't even get on the podium! His team mate, Ryan Lochte, took home the gold.

Jordyn Wieber, the favorite amongst the U.S. women's gymnasts, had an off start with little mistakes on beam and vault. She was ousted from going to the all-around individuals final. Teammates Gabby Douglas and quiet warrior Aly Raisman will be representing the U.S.

But what I thought was the most embarassing, lucky, and newsworthy event of the first couple of days, was the "DQ" (disqualification) of South Korea's aquatic hero, Park Tae Hwan.

In a qualifying heat for the 400m on Saturday, Park swam his best, clearly out-swimming everyone else in the pool. As he was waiting for the times to post, he was given the bad news that he was disqualified for a "false start". Ok, what?

Immediately, footage of the start rolled and again, the question, "what?" From my point of view, and I'm sure most others, it was a clean start.

The South Korean's immediately contested the ruling, which I am so glad they did, and FINA, the sport's global governing body, overturned the ruling.

How embarrassing for the officials watching the event. But that's the Olympics for you.

Park advanced to the final and went on to win Silver, just behind China's Sun Yang.

Jja, Park Tae Hwan, lucky they have video these days.

Nations Unite

(Olympic Fanfare blaring segueing into Call of the Champions)

For the next 17 days, the frenzy will be over the London Olympics. Did you know it is one of the highest viewed events in broadcast history? The last summer Olympics, in Beijing, was the highest viewed event, ever.

Countries from all over the globe will compete for gold. For the love, honor and respect of their country and the world. But what's most important, is that we will be putting all differences aside in the spirit of sportsmanship. Why is it that it's so easy to do that for this, but not everyday?

To all the nations- may the best man or woman win!

(Fade in Summon the Heroes with voice over) Dreams of gold. The ultimate test of courage, strength and agility. Fierce competition culminating in victory for one...

The London Olympics. The world is watching.

Cheesy, I know. Part of my line of work. Wonder how the opening ceremonies will go?
