Se7en
and YG Family Performance on MTV K (Korea) TRL
While
most people are usually sleeping at two-thirty in the morning, there are
girls already lining up on the streets of Times Square to enter MTVs
Total Request Live studio. Despite the chilly weather and (probably) their
mothers disapproval, they stand waiting
and waiting for a
good six hours. So who are these diehard fans here for? Is it Michael
Jackson? Justin Timberlake? David Beckham? No, no and no. It was
drum rolls please Se7en.
The Korean popstar decided to stop by MTV to finally give his American
fans a taste of what he is all about. Approximately 100 lucky audience
members were able to watch him perform hit songs such as Crazy, I Know,
and Come Back to Me. From his amazing dance moves to impressive vocal
skills, his good looks to even just a simple greeting he made all
the girls in the audience squeal and melt with joy. Some even got the
chance to hug them! Jealous? Maybe a little.
In between his performances, MTVs SuChin Pak had the opportunity
to talk to him about his world tour with the rest of the YG Family to
celebrate the record labels 10th anniversary. They also discussed
his upcoming English album that is set to debut next year in the US. When
a female fan asked him how it is different performing in the States and
in Asia, he jokingly replied that there is no difference because the sounds
of girls screaming are all the same. Wow. He even has a sense of humor.
What more can girls ask for in a guy?
Also in the studio to support Se7en
was the Korean hip-hop group, Jinusean. Jinu and Sean may be a bit older
and married (unfortunately), but they still received a lot of love and
respect from the crowd especially the girls. Left and right, the
female audience members screamed out oppa and sarang
hae. Jinusean felt the love and just smiled. While on stage with
Se7en, they performed
together for a hot remix of Passion. For a moment, the TRL studio became
the hottest club at nine in the morning. The whole audience and
the backstage crew were wilding out and shaking what their mama gave them.
It was definitely some good times. It got even better when Jinusean announced
that they invited two surprise guests from the YG Family to the studio.
R&B singer, Gummy, belted out her tunes in a soulful hit. Big Bang,
the newest hit sensation in Korea, performed La-La-La off their second
single, Bigbang is VIP.
While Se7en said
he felt blessed to be performing right in the middle of Times Square for
MTV, Asiafinest felt blessed as well for getting the back stage pass to
cover this exclusive showcase. Catch this documentary in November on MTV
K. But until then, you can look out for his fourth Korean album that is
set to come out at the end of October!
