[Photos+Trans]Tohoshinki Showcase 001-Omotesando Harajuku Quest Hall

SHOWCASE 001 – OMOTESANDO HARAJUKU QUEST HALL

Friday, July 2nd 10:30 a.m

“HELLO!” the members visited the site of Omotesando showcase. The showcase had been being prepared for several months before the tour and the members were actually ones who came first to the showcase.

JUNSU: “Hello” (powerful) “Please pass this way! (laughs)”

He did reception at the entrance.

Once they saw the site, the impressed members shouted “This is great!”

In fact, they’re actually involved a lot in the production, yet still them looked so excited.

First, members expressed interest in the original photo sticker machine. “Oh that’s great, Let’s Go!” they quickly tried it. “Let’s use this frame!” “Yes, let’s take another one!” The 5 really had some fun at the photo booth.

Seeing the results…

“There are two CHANGMINs ~!!!” (JUNSU)
“I want more shots! If it’s possible, I want to try all types of frames both with members and individually!”(JEJUNG)
“YUCHON, my eyes are not bigger?” (JUNSU)
“Really! Reflected prettier than actually is! (laughs)” (YUCHON)
“I look to have very large clear eyes. We look more fantastic than in real life (laughs)” (YUNHO)
“To get all pretty shoots, I think I want to try all photo booths…・” (YUCHON)
“Well, it’s been a long time since I took picture at photo booth.” (JUNSU)
“It’s been five years for me. And the last time, I took with the members. Really bring back memories. I enjoyed this so much.” (Chang Min)

It’s full of satisfaction and fun. By the way, whom do you take with you?!!
Then, ORIGINAL GATCHA (capsule toy) challenge!

From 28 single CDs, there are 10 CDs available which are chosen by lottery among the members, they’re made to be something in 1/6 of its original size and made as key holder.

“What did you get?” (All)
“Oh! I got Purple Line!” (YUNHO)
“Well… this is great, I got Keyword! I suddenly hit one with me as the main vocal, Lucky! Keyword is a really really good song.” (JEJUNG)

With the floating JEJUNG on the side,
“Oh – how I hope…” (JUNSU)
“JUNSU is not so lucky (laughs)” (Manager)
“…” (JUNSU)
“Can we do this more times?” (All)

With that, the members do further challenge.

“It’s too…. why do I also get Keyword…” (YUNHO)
“IEI! It means I’m the most popular!” (JEJUNG)
JEJUNG turned so happy and playful.
“I want to sign this keyholder!” (YUCHON)
“ORIGINAL GATCHA is fun because I won’t know what’s going to be out!” (Chang Min)

Everytime ORIGINAL GATCHA pulled out their hit song, there must be scene of members in delight.

PREMIUM GOODS SHOP YUCHON and JUNSU,

“I want to get the figures (real life figure). I want to put it at home…” (JUNSU)
“It’s a cool key chain. I want to click it here!” (YUCHON)
“I hope I can bring back all these goods also…” (JUNSU)

While figuring the estimated value of the goods, YUCHON was stuffing his bag, wanted to carry them all,

“Not a chance ~ they’re all for sale” (JUNSU)

These two people goofed a lot.

In addition, YUCHON acted as the salesperson while JUNSU played role as buyer.

“Please give me that Soy Voice Strap.” (JUNSU)
“E~ this is 200 million yen” (YUCHON)
“Oh! That is so expensive!” (JUNSU)

They enjoyed playing innocently just like a child, had a lot of smile on their faces.

Korean-style shaved ice shop was realized by the requests from members,

“Don’t you think it’s really delicious!” (All)
“I recommend original vanilla PAPPINSU” (JUNSU)
“Korean red bean shaved ice cream with syrup and rice cake is very delicious. Ice and rice cake go together well.” (YUCHON)
“I’d like to go to Japanese PAPPINSU. I think it must be sold! In the SHOWCASE, I’d have coffee flavor, one I have not eaten in Korea. The coffee ice itself is delicious.”(JUNSU)
“Rice cake and red bean is inseparable!” (YUNHO)
“The rest of fruits as well!” (Chang Min)

Members were really enjoying each taste. After went around in tour in Harajuku Quest Hall, they moved to SHOWCASE 002 which is located at Omotesando Hills.

—-Before Entering the Actual Showcase—-

I went to Harajuku to see the showcase, knowing that DBSK wouldn’t be coming. But still, premium fangoods were going to be sold and costumes would be available to see up close. Meeting up with two Shinkians, we went when the showcase supposedly opened – at noon.

And holy cow, we should have come an hour or more earlier. By 12:30PM, the tickets were gone. While you actually pay 500 yen at the DOOR, you have to get an entry ticket with a time. The first time started at 12:00, then the next one at 12:30, and then the next one at 13:00 – all the way to 17:00.

We came at 12:15PM, and we ended up with 17:00… For each half-hour group, there were 330 tickets. Today, when we went in the morning, over three thousand fans were gathered in front of the Harajuku Quest Hall. Most of them were older Japanese women, and I was really amazed at the sheer number of people. On the other hand, I was also really happy that DBSK had so many fans in Japan. It’s different seeing it in real life… Like, more powerful?

The three of us decided to wait until 17:00 for our turn. We tried to kill time at a cafe, walked around Harajuku, etc. When we came back at 16:00 to catch our time frame, we discovered that the showcase was nearly two hours behind. We couldn’t believe it. The showcase ended at 20:00, and there was a second part in Omotesando Hills that ended at 21:00.

We decided to wait it out. While we were standing around, I caught the eye of a lady who was staring at me. She was with two other women. I smiled and I asked, “Tohoshinki?”

I can’t speak a lot of Japanese – barely any, in fact. However, there are just some universal things that you can do to communicate, haha. The lady grinned at me and nodded.

I told her, “Tohoshinki ga suki desu / I like DBSK.” She grinned even bigger. Then I said, “Junsu,” pointed to myself, and made a heart, trying to tell her my favorite member was Su.

She SHOUTED and laughed out loud, pointing to herself and saying, “Junsu ga suki desu! Junsu ga daisuke desu!/ I like Junsu! I like Junsu a lot!”

Her two companions turned to us and started noticing us. The Junsu fan said some stuff in rapid-fire Japanese. My two friends were Jaejoong fans, and immediately pointed to themselves and said, “Jaejoong!”

One of the women laughed and excitedly clapped. She also said, “Jaejoong!” and pointed to herself.

I looked at the third women and smiled, trying to ask (with just facial expression, XD) which member she liked. She said, “Aiiiii, Yoochun!”

Her two friends laughed with her as the Chun fan hid her face behind a fan. It looked like they were making fun of her in a friendly way, as if they did it a lot? We all laughed, and then we showed each other our time tickets. When the Su fan saw how late ours was, she asked something.

“KJRELIJ OKSDJF:SDKLFJ Omotesando eki?”

I was like, Huh? Then the Jaejoong fan pulled out her camera and started showing us pictures of DBSK’s pictures plastered on pillars! In a subway! The three of us got all excited and the ladies pointed down the street. One of my friends knew more Japanese than I did, and understood the directions somewhat. We thanked the ladies and walked down the street forever, looking for Omotesando station.

At the station, the Su fan had told us to just tell the station staff, “Tohoshinki”, and they would point us in the right way. The first officer we encountered, we asked, “Tohoshinki?” His expression didn’t change as he flourished his hand down a long hall way.

We hurried down the hallway after we thanked the officer. And holy cow. When we got to the pillars… There were at least fifty other people there, cameras and cell phones out. Everyone was taking pictures of the pillars! It was really cool, and we could really feel the DongBang love.

—-The ShowCase—-

We went back to the Harajuku Quest Hall and nearly died. It was 18:00, and they were on the time group 15:00. We went to a cafe to kill time, went back around 19:00. It closed in an hour, and we were really worried that all the waiting would be for nothing. But then, the THSK staff directing the groups began to send in large groups. We quickly jumped in the flow and were directed up an elaborate stairway. Then we were ushered into a small, dark stadium with lots of lights and such installed in the ceiling. When we paid our 500 yen, we were given a pamphlet with a stamp on the back (the stamp was proof we paid at the Harajuku Quest Hall, so that we could get in for free for the second showcase at Omotesando Hills). In the front wall, there was a large white overhead sheet where DBSK music videos were being played (Purple Line, Doush!te, Survivor, Share the World…).

Immediately, we were ushered into a line for premium fangoods – and by the time we got there, the Soy Sauce keychain was long-since sold out. The mini-CD collection and premium seal stamp were gone, too. There were hankerchiefs, figures, crackers, and keychain circle stuffs left.

There were photobooths were you could take a picture, and it would look like you were in a picture with DBSK (it was their T album cover, and their Secret Code cover).

Then we rushed over to Omotesando Hills, afraid we would run out of time. We had an hour before the second showcase closed (it closed at 21:00). We got a second stamp on the pamphlet when we got in, and there were costumes set up around the perimeter of the place. It started with the HMS Concert costumes, then the FITB ones, then the T ones, then the Mirotic Con ones, I think? (Not sure about the last one – it’s the one with the red gloves). The last one (gloves) were real-life-size mannequins of DBSK in costumes.

After these costumes, there was a folded wall kind of thing where you could write messages to DBSK on little square stickers. I lost my pamphlet there ^^;;

Then there was a small video screen where it was showing a message from DBSK to the fans at the showcase. I couldn’t understand it, lol. A little ways from that was a big white square that had their signatures. And omg, Junsu’s had a funny smiley face on it, XD

Then there was a final, large stamp and that was it. It was an interesting, and VERY long day, XD
