Shinee and FT love. But mostly complains

Monday, February 01, 2010 @ 10:49 AM

Shinee is in our sunny shores but the chance of me seeing them is zero so they might as well be in Korea, for all the good it did for me.

I really wanted to see Minho's smile in person, i wanted to melt looking at his unbelievably gorgeous face. But somehow luck is not on my side.

I gave up going to see them at the airport because i wanted to see FT at imm. Plus, i already made plans with my friend way beforehand and to cancel it for this is just selfish.

But i was glad i went to IMM because i fell heads over heels in love with FT Island. All five treasures. And especially Jaejin's smile. It was to die for. I think i actually melted over there.

But seeing FT alone didn't seem to satisfy me. After all, how often do kpop stars, popular internationally, stop over in our little dot of a country.

Once every 3 years? Except for lovely FT of course.

So i didn't want to give up the chance. But the no overnight queuing rule was disregarded so it was such a pity that the 5000 over people who went there didn't even get a glimpse of them. The organizers, totally went back on their words.

How? Let me count the ways..

Supposedly Overnight Queuing is not allowed. But still people who i presumed are illiterate still queued overnight. S0 by 4am in the morning, there have already been 1000 people. Congratulations to the people who obeyed the rules and came early in the morning. You get front row seats to dissapointment.
Secondly, number queue will be given out once the album starts selling at 9.30am. But those conspirators that queued overnight came up with the idea of numbering themselves and recording down their names and number so that they will be able to secure that desired 1000 album. This numbering was planned and conducted by the fans themselves, as soon as they arrive. So by 4am, the numbering was complete. So much for once album starts selling at 9.30am. But they called up the organizer to inform of this and was granted permission. So the organizer, despite coming up with the no overnight queuing rule, decided to punish the rule breakers by giving all 1000 sought after passes to them.
Fans are still allowed to see Shinee at the fan sign even without the album. It just means that they won't get an autograph. But then, they made us go from 1st floor to fifth floor and back to first floor again. Quoting that you have to queue downstairs first. And those downstairs said you can go up. And in the end, only those lucky 1000 with the album are even allowed to the roof garden to see Shinee.

I actually have a lot more complains like

the first 1000 fans being gracious enough to scream at the rest to go home. Way to rub it in our faces you silly illiterate unfair pushy bastards.
and the security shouting for us to get out and go home. WHO ARE YOU to tell us what to do?!
And the security using VULGARITIES. Way to show how gracious polite and just plain nice Singaporeans are.
There are a lot more i would like to say but i'm going to stop here.

So at the end of the day, when 4000 over fans when home after being dissapointed and at some point maybe even harasses orally, my simple question is

WHAT THE FUCK? And yes, my WTF is aimed at the messy messy organizers.

You pushed us from both sides. You gave us many different instructions which when followed just led us to being shouted at. You gave us false hope just to eat back your own words and SPIT it at us.

You made us confused by not getting yourselves clear in the first place.

So you know what i say, F you and your hypocrisy.

FT Island had better management who are warm and friendly and who gave the fans that went to see them 100% satisfaction. Okay, you may argue that FT have a smaller fanbase here in Singapore but if having a bigger fanbase means CHAOS like the fans of Shinee (you know, that lucky few 1000), then I'm going to be real selfish and wish that FT's fanbase remain little. Because despite being little, Us primadonnas know our limits and respect other people. And in the end, it led to all of us having a good time.

I don't really hate the organizer or anything, I'm just pissed as most of those that went yesterday would have been. I really wanted to see Minho and the rest of them too but especially Minho with his to-die-for smile. I thought them being in Singapore means i might be able too but i guessed wrong. So you can't blame my irritation for it is not baseless.

But Still, Shinee SARANGHAE.

Oh, and FT too, SARANGHAE. (wished i knew they were departing so i could have sent them off.)

Please come back soon, both groups, with a good management system.

Maybe i should just stick to what i have now

FT ISLAND, SARANGHAE (tumblr post link)

Yesterday, i went to the airport to welcome FT Island to our sunny shores. I didn;t get to see them because of some miscommunication between organizer and the airport. I cried because i so wanted to see hongki.

Today morning, i kept replaying the video of their arrival wondering how come nobody saw them when they are just next to us.. I felt so down but calmer, i knew it was a necessary thing since there was no barricade.
