What Time Is It?




Went at 2pm's "What Time Is It" concert in MOA Arena last March 02, 2013. I only came for Nichkhun apart from the fact that he's the only member I know from 2pm. I knew some of the members but only from WGM Khuntoria Couple because they guested several times. And I only  knew two songs of them - Put your hands up and I can't. Pero pinilit ko paring pumunta to see Khun in real life :)



Just a brief story on how I become a fan of Nichkhun. 

Nichkhun And Victoria

My friends introduced me We Got Married's Khuntoria. It's a reality program where Korean celebrities show what would it be like if they're married. Khuntoria was one of the show's couple. At first, I hesitated to watch it because I might become a kpop fan. But after months of pagmamatigas, I surrendered. Pero wala akong pinagsisisihan! Khuntoria is the best show I've ever seen in my life. Nichkhun and Victoria (f(x)'s leader) are effortlessly an awesome couple. They complement each other, travell together, etc. I'll just make another blog nalang for khuntoria. Pag pinagpatuloy ko pa to baka hindi na tungkol sa concert yung laman nitong blog entry ko..haha! 


At first hindi talaga ako nagagwapuhan kay Nichkhun. I was wondering kung anong nakita ng mga kaibigan ko sakanya, but since I watched him with Victoria. Wow! Nichkhun is one of the perfect men I look up to!haha. He's so genuine and and sweet. And he loves his family and Victoria!hahaha. He even kiss his mom lips-to-lips! Plus he's the only man I knew who let the girl drive his car kahit na hindi masyadong marunong magdrive si Vic. Such a gentleman! So when we found out that 2pm's comming to Manila, we grabbed the chance to see that Thailander who effortlessly captured our hearts.


March 02, 2013. Saturday. Wtih Dawn, Nicole, Berna and Rona (Dawn's batchmate from FEU).
We bought our tickets nalang sa Arena para hindi kami mahassle sa ibang ticketing offices. Then we ate muna to kill our time. At 5:30pm we got to the line. As ussual, me and my friends are the masters of singit-sa-pila. Praktisado kami pagdating jan.haha!



Habang nasa pila may mga fans na namimigay ng mga stuffs na iwawave habang solo performance. Nakakatawa nung may isang member ng fan clubs na lumapit samin ni Berna asking if we already have the "fan chants" copy. Akala namin binebenta kaya sabi namin "hindi po, hindi po". Tapos nagtataka yung gma babae samin. Narealised nalang namin na libre pala yun!haha.. Meron din kaming nakita sa pila na may banner ng Khuntorian. We didn't even bother to ask the fan kung san nila nakuha yun pero inggit na inggit kami sakanila. We thought na sa online nila nabili yun pero kinabukasan nalang namin nalanman na binigay daw ng mga Chines Khuntorian fans yun! At eto sila :(




Sucks that the guard noticed my camera and they confiscated it. They don't allowed professional cameras, lightsticks and banners inside. Pero sa Araneta hindi naman masyadong mahigpit. When we got inside, we we're all excited because it's our first time at the arena. Our tickets are for General Admission only pero nakit namin si Ate Vanessa Nilos, one of the alumni from our highschool. She's one of the ushers at the Arena. Pumunta muna kami sa GenAd but after few minutes bumaba kami ni Nicole para makiusap kay Atte Vanessa na papasukin kami sa Lower box. Dun kasi siya nakapwesto. And she said YES! YES!!! From 1k worth of ticket to 9k!! 

We find our seats na and waited for the show to start. Kalahati lang ng Arena yung crowd . Siguro kasi saglit lang yung promotions nila. Sobrang lapit na namin sa stage!! We were this close to Nichkhun. Almost.



So the show started. The all 6 members came out and that Chansung surprised me how handsome he is!! Before nilalait namin siya because of Nicole. Pero dang! Mas nastarstruck ako sakanya kesa kay Nichkhun!! He has flawless face and body! Ang hot niya lang sobra!haha. 


Ganito siya ka-hot oh!haha..

Chansung's love you down performance

I only focused on Nichkhun and Chansung. Pag hindi sila yung nagpeperform umuupo lang ako. But the other members were all entertaing. Specially Taecyon. They made the fans happy as they perfoem. Sa Una ang lamya ng performance nila. Parang tinatamad. But as the show proceeded, the men of 2pm gone wild!! They even sang a filipino children song "tong tong tong tong pakitong kitong".hahaha! 

During Nichkhun's solo I was in the midst of imagination. He performed "Let it rain". A song that he composed for their fans. It was my first time hearing the song and as I listened to it, the lyrics was perfectly related to Victoria! Or i'm just a real delusional fan.haha! We were a bit disappointed because ang onti ng crowd ni Nichkhun. O mali lang kami ng pwestong napwestuhan? Here's a sample of Nichkhun's "Let it rain". 



We don't have a picture of them during their performances because we're too busy to shout "Khuntoria", stomp our feet and put our hands up!!hahaha.. They perform 26 songs kaya sobrang sulit!!! And sobrang bait pa nila sa fans. Kinukuha nila yung camera tapos sila yung nagpipicture. Tapos sa bandang ending binabato sila ng mga stuffed toys tapos kinukuha nila except for Wooyoung. I find him snob.haha! Pero siya pinakamaraming crowd. Sobrang swerte ng nasa VIP ang babait ng 2pm. Hindi ko maexplain pero basta!!hahaha.

After 3hours of making the fans happy, they had their final talk one by one but Nichkhun's speech was the most touching and made me heart cry. He thanked his fans for not letting him down even though he messed up. I think it's his first concert after he got the  controversy about a particular accident he got involved last year. Aaw! He's so innocent! The other members also had theiir speeches. They promised to comeback soon. I also promise to come back again! They went backstage na and the audience left the place. Pero kami nagpicture picture muna kami.

Nicole, Dawn, Me and Rona

Before leaving the arena we said thank you to Ate Vanessa. Kung hindi dahil sakaniya ang layo namin kay Nichkhun! Thank you ng sobra Ate Vanessa :) Sobra sobra sobra sobra!!!

Ate Vanessa, Kuya from MOA Arena, Nicole and Me


After the show, nakita pa namin yung van ng 2pm paalis. I snapped a video of them pero ilalagay ko nalang yun sa video blog ko as I wait for the copy of Nicole's shot from the concert.

I've never imagine I could ever see Nichkhun's face. Not even once. But there he goes as he serenade the crowd with his "let it rain". I can't explain everything I feel right now. Speechless as I first saw him. Thank you Lord for letting me see one of your beautiful creation. haay!

Thank you 2pm for the night! Ang tanging gusto ko lang ay makita si Nichkhun pero binigyan niyo ako ng total entertainment!

MARCH 02, 2013. INDEED, THE HOTTEST NIGHT EVER!!
