SUPER SHOW!!!!

Plans include meeting a friend and her friend for lunch, then getting ready to head out to Seoul late tonight. I'm meeting friends late so we can be up way early and head to the lines that are gonna be at the ticket booth! We're waiting in line most of tomorrow to get tickets to SUPER SHOW (Super Junior's concert)!! ^____^ I hope there's still someone who wants to do standing...they're going to the concert tonight, as well so they might be too tired to be in the standing section. I think that I'll get tickets anyway! I really want to be as close as possible! But the seating might even be better. We'll see! (posted: Sat 8/14)

*COMMENCE INCOHERENT POST*
SS3 WAS AMAZING!!! I HAVE NOT BEEN TO A BETTER CONCERT...except maybe HANSON, but they cannot be compared! Hanson relies a lot on their instruments and voices, since they are not a dance group. SuJu relies on their singing and dancing...and all the lights! *_*

(WARNING: I will do my best to keep it short and sweet, as well as keep it in order! But, a lot of things will pop into my head as I write.)

OK, so the day started off wayyyyy too early. Arrived at the venue by 5AM (yes you heard me right!). Got in line, while 2 friends started a number system. Some fans will attempt to cut. We also had to wait in line until 12pm, so being able to keep your spot while taking a bathroom break is helpful! Luckily this day wasn't pouring rain like Saturday. Anyway, we waited around, ate some snacks and finally got our tickets. Then, we had to WAIT SOME MORE. The venue didn't open until 3ish and the show didn't start until 4pm. We started being let in around 3, but a friend and I were in the last section of standing. But, because the standing is a large area, we would be able to move around and attempt to get close to the stage. Standing back from the crowd helped to see the stuff that was further away from me, too.

Dealt with some issues cuz last minute some girls complained because we wouldn't let them stand in front of us. We apparently were supposed to be in line in ticket number order, but no one told us that and we were first in line. None of us in the front were going to move so we just let the girls stand in front of us. I felt bad for the girl that worked there tho. She seemed frustrated, but it would have been nice if they told us to get in that order in the first place! They only said to make 4 lines.
Anyway, walked into the venue and WOW. It was so big! I started freaking out a little cuz Super Junior is my second favorite group. It's also my first concert here.

There was plenty of space in our section, so we were able to move around most of the show. That was helpful, especially when a member was in another part of the stage and there was room to get closer. Just had to be a little quick. :-P

The show started off in the center, with lots of lights and music. Out of this center contraption comes a member flying in the air (Donghae for those of you that know/care). His haircut is gorgeous~~ Oh, there was a vid at the beginning too...it got everyone excited for the show. The first song was Sorry Sorry. I think Eunhyuk was on our side of the stage, he came out of the floor before it started.

I realized this could take a long time if I go into any more detail, so I'm just gonna talk about some highlights for me. :)

Shiwon was one of the second members to come to our side. I think him along with Donghae, Sungmin, and Shindong actually...But this could have been at any point. I think most of the members ended up on my side at least once!
-Shiwon is gorgeous! He is a lot smaller than I imagined. He is pretty broad shouldered and built, but his waist is so small! It was surprising. Oh and he's now my new favorite (Sorry Hangeng)...he's actually a Christian (he tells everyone lol) and his solo song was "Looking for the Day." I hadn't heard that song in so long. He did a beautiful job and was just so absorbed in the music and in praising God. I cried, I'll admit it.
-Sungmin is precious!! He is cute and short, and I just find him so adorable. He also knows how to work it...his dance solo (I was bummed he didn't sing!!) was pretty hot. he also played the guitar for Ryeowook's solo. He's a fantastic guitarist. Oh! He got his shoes stuck in the stage trap door thing. It was hilarious, cuz he finally gave up and took off his shoes then wandered over to a rail and stuck his leg on it, trying to be sexy/silly. It was hilarious. Kyuhyun went and retrieved his shoes for him and even helped him put them on. ^^ They also wore giant vegetable suits during their song called "Cooking Cooking" Sungmin was on my side and I noticed he counted the steps before he walked down and counted them as he walked down, so he wouldn't fall. He was a giant pumpkin after all. http://pics.livejournal.com/midorihaven/pic/002d0xtk <--see? :D
-Heechul really is as pretty as he looks. I mean really. I don't think I have ever met or seen a guy more beautiful than him. He knows it, too. Which kinda makes him seem stuck up, but I don't care. He was fun to watch. Especially when they had these cold air guns they were spraying at us. Heechul just wandered around, smacking his gum, nonchalantly spraying fans, and other members. His solo was AMAZING! He's such a diva...he did Lady GaGa's "Pokerface" It was basically amazing. :)
-Ryeowook wasn't on my side too much. But he is almost as pretty as Heechul. His solo song was gorgeous. He has such a beautiful voice. It's flawless~~At the end, he was wearing cat ears! So cute.
-Donghae's hair looks so good on him. It's shorter. He's also a pretty awesome performer. His singing has improved a lot and it shined in their TROT song (brand new song!). The style fit him well~~ One point they all wore costumes and Donghae was in an English guard uniform...someone threw his giant hat at him right after he came out. :P
-Shindong is one of my least favorite members sometimes...but he actually looked good during this show. He's also a great performer, he knows how to hype everyone up. :)
-Eeteuk is the leader, and he's sometimes not a fave, either. But, he's pretty adorable. He's got a cute voice and can be pretty hyper. He was on our side a few times and was pretty interactive with us. At one point he gave a big arm heart and looked in my area...I gave a hands heart at the same time! I'd like to believe it was the only time I got their attention. :D Just leave me in that belief HAHAHA.
-Kyuhyun is the youngest member. He's a little brat! It's funny tho...when they had the air guns, he shot the cold air in one area like four times in a row. Poor girl. I laughed so hard at his face while he was doing it. :P He also attacked most of the members that were around him. Oh and his solo was pretty. His voice is so nice. I was watching the screen cuz he was too far to see. It was close up and you could see his scar from the car accident. It was just nice to see that they really aren't as perfect as we'd like to believe. He was still so handsome~
-Yehsung I think was on my side only once or twice, but I don't remember him doing much. His solo was flawless though. He's got one of the best voices of suju in my opinion. He had us sing with him during parts of the song, too. It was actually one I knew, too! Well, only the chorus^^
-Eunhyuk is another least favorite member. He's got amazing dance skills, though. He also is a great TROT singer. He did the low, gravelly voice so well. I loved their new TROT song, it's called "Tok Tok Tok" (knock knock knock). OH!! I almost forgot...along with SHindong and Donghae, they did Beyonce's "Single Ladies" COMPLETE WITH COSTUME. Yes, they wore dresses and heels. It was a little disturbing to be honest, but funny nonetheless. They are still awesome dancers! I cannot deny it, even when they're prancing around in wigs and tight dresses. Heechul"Gaga" joined them during this, too.

I covered most of the highlights talking about each of the members. I know none of you know who they are, but I have a few friends that do. So, someone will appreciate this! ^_^
OHHHH! I almost forgot! The Trax came to perform with them! They're a kpop/rock group that were big during DBSK's time (They were in DBSK's video "Triangle" too). Heechul played drums with them the first time they performed! It was awesome. I was stoked they were there, but not as excited as I could have cuz my friends mentioned them being there, so I wasn't surprised.
They did a tribute for Kangin (he's a member that's in the army right now). I was a little annoyed they didn't do a tribute for the missing Kibum and Hangeng...but those two members did choose to leave the group. Kanging had no choice really. He's also a big part of SuJu, I guess. He's pretty loud when present. Anyway, the tribute was pretty! They pretended to play instruments and projected a giant Kangin behind each of the members, in turn. He saluted and blew a heart kiss in the video. I kinda teared up...Eeteuk was close to breaking down, you could see his eyes were wet.
Oh, they did two of their older songs (U and Dancing Out) as a rock version. It was awesome and so fun. I was in standing with one friend out of the group of us going...and all we did at the end was sing along and dance like crazy. It was fantastic~
The talking part (at some point) was awesome cuz Shiwon spoke in English and Chinese!!! They spoke to the fans in Korea, Chinese, Thai, and Japanese. I was stoked to hear Shiwon. It made me miss Hangeng (he was the Chinese member). I think the talking in English made me love Shiwon a little more. haha~
The end was fun. They still had the air guns and were goofing off with those, making it look like they were breathing fire or something...Shindong made it look like he farted (yup, he's a dork) and Ryeowook pretended to hold his nose. That was cute. :) Shiwon tried to blast Heechul but something didn't work and Heechul ran around in a victory pose. They also pulled out water bottles, and of course proceeded to attempt to wet each other when they each were talking to the fans. Eeteuk got water poured and spit on him. It was funny cuz he giggled and squealed. It was adorable.
That was the end, basically. The were exiting on our side area to walk around and go out the front/center area. But none of them seemed to look in our direction. I was sad. Oh, Kyuhyun had someone's cell phone too. He was talking to them too! It was cute...he handed the phone back and ran off to catch up with everyone.

Went home that night after eating with everyone. Crashed as soon as I got home, fell asleep as soon as my head hit that pillow. Was sore for the next two days after, but it was so worth it. I am going to SMTOWN Concert this Saturday too!!!! This one has SuJu, SNSD(Girl's Generation), SHINee, Changmin and Yunho from DBSK, BoA, The Trax, Kangta, and f(x). I am soooo stoked to see Yunho!! He's my fave from DBSK. BoA just had a comeback, too so it'll be epic with her there. I am also just getting more into SHINee, so that'll be awesome too. Girl's Generation are my favorite girl group, too! This is basically gonna be one awesome concert. I'll prob post about that one too. I hope I can take pics! I couldn't at SuJu, otherwise they'd kick you out. :(

Alright I'm gonna go make a separate post about my day yesterday. Went to the musical Thrill Me again...

-XOXOXOXO-
