My previous entry was about how i was excited for 2PM's comeback and im still not over it since they're actively promoting their new single and performing at music shows.
I went backtrack and watched the varieties from their own Youtube channel,also bumped into some old videos.
But when i watched this video that it really hitted me:
Click to viewJunho and Teacyeon dressed up like they're in their 60's and the make-up all look so realistic.
Just imagine in that age, watching back their golden era, must've been so nostalgic.
Actually the hyung line from 2PM and me are at the same age. Not sure why i feel like they're much older. XD
They started being together as 2PM in their 16-17 years old.
They've spent almost 12 years together.
If i were to put it in a real life situation, just imagine working at the same place for 10 years and being so loyal to the company and having the same colleague for 10 years. O__O
That's why most group has departed to their own way, probably they've got tired of each other, and wanted to do different things.
So when a group that actually able to comeback as a full set and sticking together even after 10 years, it's very envious. *cat eyes*
I watched in one interview Nichkhun explained how he was scouted when attending a Korean festival.
He had never dreamed of being an artist, he doesnt know how to sing or dance. So being a celebrity never crossed his mind.
However his dad told him to just give it a try since nothing is working out for him as his academic was out of the line as well.
So Nichkhun travelled to Korea and basically learned everything there. I guess he was lucky he got debuted.
Just imagine for those trainees that trained for 5-6 years but having no chance to debut. That's really just a waste of time.
KPOP is a very competative industry. I mean every music industry in anywhere in the world is competative, but KPOP is just another level.
The idols have dedicated their life to the fans, hence they're willing to do so much of fan-services. I guess its a culture thingy. I've never seen any celebrity serving their fans like KPOP do; aegyo, cute posses, hi-5 event, fanmeets etc.
Probably that explained why Taecyeon willing to give up his US PR and serving the Korean army duty. He must've been very thankful to the fans which allows him to have the life he has right now.
TBH, as im in my 30's, i'm able to somehow relate to them as normal humanbeing.
Doing the best at their job (singing & dancing), just so they could put something on the table.
With that being said, they have to move forward and endure all the hardship. If they're lucky, they get to be an artist for a long run, alas they may have gone with the trend.
Ahh..its been awhile but, life's hard. Ganbatte ne~ n___n
