Had I known that, I'd have dragged you outside to the line (in like.... the most non-creepy way possible???)! Everyone was so chill and eager, and I was just a giggling ball of excitement talking to everyone who looked my way, bwhahaha. But don't worry..... the BBCs will converge again in the future. And then, you will strike. >:3 I kinda hope Block B returns in the colder months, honestly.... my winter clothes are a lot cuter than my summer clothes, heheh. >~>

Lately, I've been trying to figure out why I like Zico so much, and it's because of that colored bit right there. Woo Jiho reminds me of a sexy-ass preppy muppet. Yes. What kinda girl wouldn't go for that? THEY KEEP POSTING SO MUCH. Every time I come back to the internet, they've uploaded more photos. This is such a beautiful time to be a BBC. And you know Zico, honey, if it's hot.... I guess you could always consider not wearing long sleeves in 90+ degree weather? Function over fashion, yo. The second it hits the mid-80s, pants and sleeves aren't even a thing in my wardrobe. ----- Also, I kinda missed the discussion for the comeback, but I've been playing around with potential concepts in my head since it's been announced. MV wise, I think it'd be adorable to see Block B as hotel staff in like, a Beverly Hills area, trying their best to take care of/impress a wealthy and pretty lady guest. They'd be shit at it, of course, because they're Block B. That or they could kinda use the concept of the posters from the Blockbuster concert where they're like, sleazy 70s movie producers. Or maaaaybe, since they're crazy enough, they'll wind up in an insane asylum. Sound-wise, I'm kinda hoping for maybe some reggae influenced songs? Kinda like when Zico sampled Bruno Mars's "Billionaire." All of Block B seems to be stuck on Pharrell Williams lately, so maybe we can expect some heavily influenced R&B or funk songs. I'm sure no matter what it is, I won't be complaining. :3

A'ight guys.... none of you are prepared for this. I've spent every day since the NYC concert writing this. x_x It's TOO LONG (4K words). As it turns out, I am really verbose. I did my best to remember the setlist during the show. I was repeating it over and over in my head, but I still may have some things out of order. :\ The entire drive back home (fourteen hour drive, wooo!), I talked about the show with my friend, so some of her thoughts are thrown in here. This is really not going to be that interesting to read, but OH WELL. This is how I've decided to remember it. :3 So here we go: My long-ass fan account for Block B's first US show at the NYCB Westbury Theater on 6-22-14. Part 1 - The Venue/Fans Part 2 - PASSION. FASHION. ACTION. Part 3 - My Impressions I've thought about writing an alternate, condensed version, and replacing this with it. Then I'll just link to my tumblr post for the full thing.... But I'll do that in the future.

I need to see Block B again. Post concert depression is hitting me so hard right now, I'm not sure anything in NYC matters anymore. I don't think I'll be able to enjoy anything at all today, bwhahah. man but for serious, their hands were really soft, heheheheh

The concert is TOMORROW. I am far too excited right now. Though, I bet the boys are just as excited to meet us. I'm currently sitting in my NYC hotel room looking out at all the people, waiting for my friends to get ready. I wasn't able to go to the airport to greet them, so I hope pics start popping up on twitter soon. :3

Move aside Jaehyo, because Woo Jiho is the one true flower boy. Next thing we know, Zico's going to be starring in K-dramas as the stoic, dreamy love interest.

YEAH IT WAS Jaehyo squealed like a small child multiple times, and he took out his rage and frustrations on a squeaky toy. So awesome, and really, really heartwarming in the end. :') Next week, we get to see Block B as school boys (I.... think that's what was going on there in the previews lol).

We're BBCs, we know how to party hard. ;D I'm in the room now with one other person, but I kinda doubt I'll go that late tonight. xD Gotta go speak to college people tomorroooow. But ayyy, the party's happening guys! So pop on in :D

7:30AM and I'm just now leaving the stream. xD It was a lot of fun once again! Tons of great discussions. We ended up not watching the Special in Japan. We switched it to World Camp. I'm sure we'll watch the Japan Special.... eventually. We had minor playback issues tonight, but everyone was very nice and accommodating. ^^ Hopefully more of you will be able to join us in the future! Some people were talking about meeting up again tonight, around 8 or 9PM EST. I'll... I'll post more details when I wake up. For now, sleep.

Well, day 2 of the show marathon will be starting soon~! Come join us if you've got the time. :D Tonight we'll be finishing up episodes 7 and 8 of Match Up, and then moving on to the Match Up Special in Japan. Last night was a lot of fun. :3 Aww, maybe we'll have special early morning show times for you (and everyone else across the pond)! :D

We're planning on doing it again tonight if you might be able to join us then! And then again next Saturday and Sunday... We're gonna try and make it a "thing". What times work best for you? Such a nice performance :') That bit between Jaehyo and Taeil is cute. Jaehyo's a human slot machine, heheh. It does kinda feel like he's just a prop though, since he doesn't get to do much else during the song. xD You know, Kyung's instagram already amuses me lol. It feels like it's a fan's account. |D The profile picture isn't a personal picture, it's like, one of those stock promo pics that would come up on google images you know? And now he's posting fan taken photos from concerts. I wonder if Kyung just sits at home following all the fansites for him, and he saves all the nice pictures he finds to his computer. Gosh, Kyung makes me giggle. That is a really nice photo though. He looks so sweet and innocent.

Alright! Won't be a problem :D

A'ight, if there's still interest, I'll probably begin streaming for the Block B show marathon around 9EST (in 23 minutes). Come join me~ :3 Well, unless no one joins me by nine, then I'll just chill in the room until someone pops in lmao. I have popcorn so I'm pretty content with waiting.

Raws went up while I was sleeping, how nice! :D Here's the boys' reaction and here's the show. I've got a torrent link, but I dunno if we're allowed to post those >~> Lmfao. Block B are such bad boys. Did you see them helping out that farmer in 5MBC today? Despicable! Jaehyo shrieked like a little girl. We definitely don't want today's youth admiring them.

Every time I introduce someone to Block B, they think Zico's a woman! I just... I don't understand why?! But you know. I always get mistaken for a dude, so maybe this just means we're perfect for each other. It's like we'd balance each other out?

GIF OF THE ACTION ALMOST AS GOOD AS SEEING THE REAL DEAL

Oh... Oh no you poor thing. Let me press you to my bosom in comfort as I whisper sweet nothings into your ear about Zico? IT... IT'S OKAY! Someone will have the raws up soon! Mine did too! I missed... THE KISS

It should be on already. If it's not playing, I'd suggest trying a different stream. :>

The more weird outfits we see from Zico, the more I can't wait to see what he's gonna do on that fashion show. Dude's really experimental. BUT LOOK AT HOW CUTE THEY LOOK! I think the hats like that are "in" right now. I've seen them on like, four different guys on the stream in the past ten minutes alone.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS THE OUTFIT ZICO'S GOING WITH! I can't stop grinning. Being this happy in the morning is such an unusual feeling. Taeil's got so many tattoos showing today! I like it. >:3

ZICO, DID YOU BORROW P.O'S HAT? Omg, what if this is Zico's outfit today for the livestream of 5MBC? I KINDA HOPE IT IS. P.O's looking really tall. I always thought Zico was taller, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Maybe it's the angle? Or possibly the shoes? Maybe even the fact that he's standing next to Kyung? XD I just woke up from my nap! 8D Now comes the wait. 1. http://klivestream.blogspot.sg/2014/01/05.html 2. http://kpopstreamonline.blogspot.com/2014/03/mnet-02.html 3. http://mnet.interest.me/tv/onair/mnet 4. http://www.livestream.com/woOjaYs Here's some links for anyone who needs them. I use the first one predominantly.

Yep, very in league with what I was thinking as well. Kyung is noticeably a lot happier nowadays, and it's really nice to see. I do think the over-confidence he displays at times is to offset how he feels on the inside. However, I'm with you in that I don't think his greasiness is at all a front, especially not when he talks about how much he appreciates and cares about BBCs. His words have always seemed very genuine and heartfelt. Though sometimes, it does seem like he tries to cover up when things hurt him with cheesiness. I was actually looking for an interview where he talked about being depressed, but I couldn't find anything. It may have just been his tweets I was thinking of. It's hard to gauge whether becoming an idol helped his self-esteem or hurt it more. He may have had confidence issues pre-debut, but by becoming an idol, his appearance and image became that much more important to the society he's in. Soooo many comments about his face and height. On the other hand though, he ended up gaining a large support base of people who love and cherish him. Actually, thinking about it (and at risk of inferring too much from one photo), in the picture that was shown on 5MBC of Zico and Kyung with those girls, Kyung looked very awkward and uncomfortable in the back? This may just be projection on my part, since it took me forever to become comfortable with how I looked on camera. This was interesting to think about! I forget where, but I remember Kyung saying he used to have like an... "us vs them" mentality, where he was kinda standoffish towards newer members. Outside of Zico, I'm not sure who he would have felt comfortable enough with at debut to rely on for emotional support (though obviously they're all much closer now). It almost makes me wonder if Taewoon helped Kyung out a little along way? I don't have anything to back up that thought outside of blind speculation, but they do seem very close when they interact. Taewoon seems more.... emotionally understanding than Zico? That's not to say Zico isn't empathetic and uncaring, but I've always felt Taewoon has a better idea of what to say and how to deal with people? Zico seems like he has to work at it a bit more, but he's grown a lot over the past few years, especially into the leader role (but this is a post about Kyung!). I could see Kyung turning to Taewoon at times, since they've no doubt known each other for as long as Kyung has known Zico. Again though... that's all speculation and me just talking out my ass. xD But yeah. In short, Kyung's definitely gone through some emotional growth the past few years. He's really such a big sweetheart, but he seems very easily hurt.

Huh, did not know that! That's really interesting to learn. I was thinking along the lines of... something... something else. ehehe

THAT SECOND ONE AING:UOVMAWR JCNARO NF:OMA KYUNG'S. SO. CUTE. I really hope Kyung finds this thread someday. His ego will grow ten sizes that day. He'd love all the appreciation. Found this on tumblr the other day, and thought it was friggin adorable: Holke, you're a huge Kyung stan, so I'm curious what your opinion is on the matter! How do you think Kyung has changed/grown over the years?

I got a twitter like, two months ago so I could keep track of updates easier, and all I talk about on it is food. Food and my dog... And hm! I might consider it then. :3 I do really like Zico... I've got a tumblr practically dedicated to him, so I guess keeping a thread going wouldn't be much harder, lol. Okay, I was looking at this pic again... is that a roll of toilet paper on the bottom right table?
