I found out that my U-Kiss boys, Kiseop and Hoon were having a mini live and hi-touch at Aeon Mall Zama on 24 June 2018 to promo their 1st single “Train / Milk Tea”. Aeon Mall Zama is in the Kanagawa Prefecture and about 2 hours away from Metropolitan Tokyo. The mini live and hi-touch starts at 5.30 pm and my flight back to Singapore … Continue reading U-Kiss Kiseop and Hoon Train / Milk Tea Promo in Japan 2018 Post Mortem
Kevin announced in March 2017 that he would depart from U-Kiss after his contract ended. And despite the fact that he was no longer contracted with NH Media and no longer a part of U-Kiss, he participated in a series of concert in Japan to mark his departure from U-Kiss and to say a final goodbye to KissMes on 24 & 25 April 2017 at … Continue reading U-Kiss Premium Live – Kevin’s Graduation in Yokohama, Japan 2017 Post Mortem
This is probably something that is unique to concerts in Japan; there is usually a hi-touch or handshake event after the evening concerts. I didn’t managed to get a ticket to the handshake event on the 25th November. I was mentally prepared to not be able to see them U-Kiss boys up-close during this trip but it must be fate because I managed to score a ticket for … Continue reading U-Kiss Hand-Shake Event in Hachioji Tokyo 2016 Post Mortem
U-Kiss did a special “U-Kiss Japan Best Live Tour 2016” concert tour on 25 & 26 November 2016 at Hachioji Olympus Hall, Tokyo to celebrate their 5th anniversary since their debut in Japan. Being a massive fan, I had to attend this; I would not miss this for the world! Since I flew all the way to Tokyo for this, I had to attend all 4 … Continue reading U-Kiss Japan Best Live Tour 2016 5th Anniversary Special Post Mortem
I went to both shows of the U-Kiss One Shot Tour in Tokyo held at Nakano Sunplaza on 22 July 2016. There was a hi-touch session after the evening concert but unlike that during the “Action” Tour last year, access to the hi-touch session was via a lottery. Each fan is only allowed to buy a maximum of 6,000 yen (~S$ 80) worth of albums and … Continue reading U-Kiss One Shot Tour Hi-Touch in Tokyo 2016
The Suwon Kpop Super Concert on 17 & 18 June 2016 was the real reason why I went to Seoul recently, not MAP6; even though I kept seeing them over the 5 days I was there (which I am totally not complaining about). My friend wanted to go see U-Kiss at the Suwon Kpop Super Concert and she talked me into going with her to … Continue reading Suwon Kpop Super Concert 2016 Post Mortem
A trip to Seoul is never complete without trying to watch one of them music countdown chart shows live as an audience in the studio. 🙂 Since I bumped into my MAP6 boys, I decided to try to watch them perform live in closer proximity ahead of the Suwon Kpop Super Concert where they were also performing. Compared to the last time I watched MTV … Continue reading Watching M! Countdown Live As A Studio Audience
I recently went on a 10-day trip to Seoul for the U-Kiss “Stalker” comeback alone and it was to-date, the most memorable U-Kiss centric trip by far. The moment I landed in Seoul, I found out about their first fansign event in support of their 11th mini album “Stalker”! Needless to say, I had to try my luck and thankfully, I managed to get into … Continue reading U-Kiss “Stalker” Fansign Event in Seoul 2016
If bumping into MAP6 in Seoul wasn’t fate, I don’t know what it is. When I booked my trip to Seoul, I had no idea that my MAP6 boys would still be promoting their latest single “Swagger Time/매력발산타임” during the duration of my trip. In fact, I didn’t even know if I could make it for this Seoul trip because I was supposed to undergo … Continue reading SPOTTED: MAP6 in Seoul 2016 & “Stalked” by U-Kiss Kiseop
