Girls’ Generation: Part of the Kpop galore at SMTOWN Live World Tour III
I finally succumbed to the Korean wave fever this year, and have been happily occupied with K-drama (Caution: they’re absolutely addictive – don’t start, you’ll find it hard to stop!) and Kpop such as Big Bang and 2NE1. I was hence naturally happy when SM Town announced Singapore as one of the stops for its 2012 World Tour – it means I can see all the popular Kpop acts at one go, yay.
24,999 others joined me at the concert at The Float @ Marina Bay, with some die-hard fans queuing one week in advance to secure the best places at the mosh pit. The four-hour long concert saw S.M. Entertainment’s artistes f(x), Kangta, TVXQ, Super Junior, Girl’s Generation, SHINee, BoA and EXO belting out a record 50 songs. Even the rain and cranky, humid weather couldn’t fizz out the excitement of the fans, and the massive production included a huge multi-tiered stage, water effects, pyrotechnics and fireworks. I must say this was the most value-for-money concert ever, given the number of artistes, stage production, duration and the effort the artistes put into performing(I felt tired just watching them). It was also the first ever concert that I persevered to sit through the rain, which was so heavy at a point it felt like sitting under a waterfall. Definitely a concert I will remember!

Spotted a huge crowd lining The Helix bridge trying to catch a (free) glimpse of the concert. Actually, if you don’t need to see the stars’ face, it’s a pretty good spot to listen to the concert :p

Girls’ Generation – too cute with the winks, megawatt smile and porcelain-white skin. Yes I’m jealous, haha
Oh, oh…here comes the group I have been waiting for – Super Junior! *scream*
Oh so cool…
SHINee – when Jonghyun appeared later topless, many female fans were swooning over his Adonis-like body, including a dumbfounded me. My gawd…do I feel drool coming down, or is it just the rain?
TVXQ duo – I give them a anward for being the most hardworking dancers. Their dance moves were so intense, I felt tired just watching them. How on earth do they remember all those complicated moves?!

Sweat or rain, I know not. I only know it’s bloody hot.
