[Fan Account] Sungkyu’s Vampire Musical

On August 24th I saw Sungkyu’s Vampire Musical in Tokyo, Japan.

Pre-Show Fan Account:

I paid $300 to have the ‘Fan Package’ which included: prime seats, ‘backstage’ tour, free original good and a free drink pass. My seat ended up being level 1, row 5, seat 24 (aka on the aisle!)

The fan package people were in our own line and I was #4 in line. They let us in first through our own door and I was given my ‘original gift’ which ended up being a very beautiful black scarf. Also we were the first ones to get to buy our goods. I was a little confused at first but they ushered me to the goods (and apparently dropped my ticket in the process). I somehow didn’t even know there would be goods so I was a total wreck trying to figure out what I wanted to buy. I ended up buying the program, tote bag, makeup bag w/ scrunchie, hand towel and mini clearfile.
After getting away from the goods rush I made my way to a curtained area to see my haul. It was only after I finished that I realized I didn’t have my ticket anymore. I was REALLY worried they would kick me out so I was kind of a mess. ^^;; I ended up going to a staff member who took me to the counter. They asked me my seat number which I of course knew by heart from weeks of fangirling over it and it turns out a staff member had picked it up so they returned it to me. ;A; Was so happy.

It took me a minute to realize the curtain area was NOT the entrance and it was in fact upstairs. I thought since I had level one seats that I’d be on the first floor ^^;;  As soon as I got inside I took a photo of the stage but was quickly reprimanded by a staff member that pictures weren’t allowed. I was a lil sad about this but not all that surprised. Here in Japan pictures are almost NEVER allowed during the event but normally they don’t mind if you take them before the show. So all those pics you see from this were taken by sneaky fans who are breaking rules…

During Show Fan Account:

Near the end of the show literally the final scene Sungkyu appears in the aisle and walks toward the stage slowly while singing. Because I was on the aisle HE WALKED RIGHT PAST ME! I already knew this was going to happen so I was trying to prepare for it the entire time. When it finally happened…I was breathless. Literally, I am pretty sure I stopped breathing until he got past me. Which was kinda a big deal since he was walking SO FREAKING SLOW. Not that I’m really complaining…Thankfully none of the fans were being stupid and trying to touch him. He was being a good actor and looking at the stage but I am absolutely certain he saw me. I mean…bright blonde hair right on the aisle in a bright orange dress…ya… Anyway, right before he got to my seat he started rushing toward the stage and started a loud note…and he spit on me. Not on purpose of course but ya haha. I honestly didn’t even react at first because all I could think was ‘omfg he is so handsome and he is so close I could easily touch him’ but then I saw the droplet and then was like ‘wait…he just spit on me…o.o;;; I guess it’s really real huh?’ XD

Talk Show Fan Account:

After the musical was over the cast came out per ‘type’ and after the first three groups the crowd finally started standing up while clapping. Even though my arms were KILLING ME I kept applauding because they really deserved it. All the main cast members came out one by one so it took a while. The last out was Sungkyu. Even though we were tired the crowd clapped soooo much harder when he came out and even called out to him and screamed. I could tell the rest of the cast was a little miffed but what can we say? ^^;; They all came to the edge of the stage together and bowed. Even after the curtain dropped we still kept clapping.

After a while Pierre, Stephen and Sungkyu came back onto stage where they had placed three stools for them to sit on. It was really cute because they sat Pierre on the left and Stephen on the right. Pierre had both legs down, Stephen had one foot resting on the bar of his stool and our dorkface Sungkyu had both of his feet propped up on the stool bar so his cute lil knees were poking up. It was just to adorable for my bare eyes. ;A;

They had a really nice short ‘Talk/Q&A Corner’ with the three guys. Apparently people entered questions in advance for them answer so all the questions were placed in a red box and of course Sungkyu was the one given the honor of pulling the questions.

It was so adorable because when he pulled out the first question he read the girl’s name then looked up to see where she was sitting. After seeing her raised hand he waved to her and said hi ;A; then looked back to the paper and said her name again and then read ‘Sungkyu’ then suddenly stopped reading and handed the paper to the translator. HAHAHAHHAHA That’s all he could understand. XD Every time Sungkyu pulled a question he would read the person’s name and greet them.

I’m sorry I can’t remember what the questions were exactly but I know one they asked him if this time in Japan was healing for him and he said it was more killing than healing because he had to work so hard. ^^;;; honestgyu Also a fan had left a ‘question/comment’ saying ‘you know you are the most handsome right?’ which put our boy on the spot awkwardly so he said he thought Stephen the hyung was the most handsome. In reaction Stephen spun around in his chair slowly acting shy and putting his back to the audience. When Sungkyu noticed he got so cute and shy too. XD

On the final question it was Sungkyu’s turn to answer but the translator must have been nervous because she moved on to the next part of the talk which was a surprise gift for one lucky fan. Pierre held it out and had already revealed the gift was a Vampire poster that had been signed by the three but Stephen pointed out that Sungkyu hadn’t answered the question yet. The translator was soooo apologetic but everyone just laughed and Sungkyu didn’t even look like he had planned on saying anything. They took the poster backstage and Sungkyu answered the last question. BTW, the translator was translating on the spot by writing what they were saying on a piece of paper and it looked like she was having a really hard time at some points especially with Stephen who had a lot to say and even stuttered twice and was just so adorably nervous.

When they brought the gift back out Pierre cutely acted like it was a surprise and hid it behind his back. Sungkyu drew the winning name. It was an older woman near the back of my section. She came up and shook hands with Sungkyu. He was really kind and gentle with her and the other two had stepped away to give them ‘space’. If it had been me I would have wanted to shake their hands too >_> but apparently they didn’t expect anyone to care much about them…

At the very end they went to say their thank yous and goodbyes. Going in order Pierre went first. Sungkyu went to go second and had already opened his mouth when Stephen put his hand out and stopped him and went next instead. OMG my baby’s face XDDDDDDD it was classic annoyed foxface moment but of course he didn’t say anything and instead went last. I think he was even more annoyed because Stephen ended up saying some of what he had planned to say.

After they were done and going backstage they walked out but Sungkyu ran back in, did his cute double handed wave aegyo, said thanks in Japanese and then in his adorkable way, ran back stage again. The whole crowd was laughing and cooing at our adorable leader.

'Backstage' Tour Fan Account:

Since I had a backstage pass I waited in my seat until all the other people had left. Then the curtain came back up and the translator explained a bit about how the stage was made. We all left our bags, which was my first sign this wasn’t going to be as ‘backstage’ as I had imagined, and were brought on stage. We were allowed to take as many pictures as we wanted of the stage but weren’t allowed ‘backstage’. They talked about the material the set was made from and what the different stage markers stood for. This lasted about 15 minutes and then we had to leave. On my way out I snapped one last picture and wanted to take one last selca but the staff pressured me out.

The Story of the Vampire Musical

 

The Story of the Vampire Musical

First off just let me say if I am wrong about any of this please be understanding. The musical was in Korean with Japanese subtitles along the sides and bottom of the stage as if I’d ever look away from Sungkyu like really ppl. While I apparently watch enough kdramas to get a basic understanding I obviously didn’t know exactly what was happening at all times.

ACT I
Year 1324
Scene 1 / Featuring ?, Ensemble and Dracula / (song 1, 2, 3)
At the beginning you see a bunch of people in cloaks singing a sad song. They go to a guy who kinda looks like a pope begging him. His warriors are about to attack them when Dracula comes busting in and starts battling everyone. He eventually kills this pope guy was kinda shocking really and I thought he was saving the cloaked people but they were killed too? Honestly I wasn’t thinking entirely straight at this point because all I could think was ‘damn that boy even looks good in long hair’.

Scene 2 / Featuring Adriana, Pierre, Dracula and Ensemble / (song 4, 5, 6, 7)
Adriana hands a letter she had written to Pierre asking him to take it Dracula. After he leaves she goes and picks up a bottle of ‘poison’. Only after drinking it and dramatically dying on stage does Dracula appear. Pierre also looks shocked that she has poisoned herself and the handmaidens are all crying as Dracula brings his lover’s dead boy into his arms and cries over her. He decides he wants to die with her and goes to stab himself with a dagger but even after stabbing himself he doesn’t die.

Three demons appear and tell him that he is cursed and that he can not die. He has become the first vampire. Dracula rages at his fate and being separated from his love even in death. In his rage he grabs a handmaiden and bites her. When he went to throw her away she put her hand to his face and left a bloody mark along his cheek. While singing he bites other maidens who end up surrounding Pierre and bite him as well.

Year 1624
Scene 3 / Featuring Lorain and Stephen / (no songs)
Lorain is heading onto a ship and Stephen comes to stop her or see her. They talk briefly and you get the impression she is naive and cute and that he loves her and doesn’t want her to leave. The ship’s horn blows and she runs off. He swears to himself that he will follow her.

Scene 4 / Featuring Lorain, Pierre, ? and Ensemble / (song 8)
Next there is some kind of outdoor circus thing with four stands with curtains covering them saying they are different kinds of beasts like a wolfman and mermaid. What appears to be the male and female ring leaders are singing while common folk watch on. One by one the people inside the stands are revealed. The first is a giant gorilla, then a man in a wolf suit, a centaur and then the ‘mermaid’ looks more like a person who was eaten by a giant fish with their feet still sticking out. o.O The centaur was really funny flexing his muscles.

Lorain walks up trying to find somewhere in particular and the circus people are trying to distract her and lure her inside but she is determined to find what she is looking for. It is becoming more and more obvious that they are vampires. She ends up leaving looking completely oblivious to the danger she just avoided. The vampires represent themselves by biting down on red cloth and letting it hang from their mouths.

Scene 5 / Featuring Dracula, Lorain, Adriana and ? / (song 9, 10)
Later we see Lorain walking through a forest holding a three piece candle stick. One of the demons comes up to her and scares her by blowing out, relighting and then taking her candles from her. Seeing the candles floating in midair Lorain gets scared and runs away. She hears someone coming but right before they get to her someone else pulls her behind the trees. It turns out to be the group of vampires from before. They are laughing and cackling while carrying a villager they had caught.

After they pass Lorain and Dracula come out from behind the tree. He seems mildly curious about her and leads her to his castle. Inside they see two giant portraits of Adriana and Dracula. Lorain gets incredibly excited and recognizes them right away. She reveals that this was what she had been looking for. Apparently when she was child she managed to receive one of the couple’s secret love letters and dedicated herself to finding them. Excitedly she runs to the edge of the stage and starts calling out for Dracula. After she goes to scream again Dracula moves up and quiets her. Only then does she see the portrait behind him and puts two and two together. She is just about to confront him that he is indeed Dracula when suddenly she is frozen in place. Once frozen Dracula takes the letter from Lorain’s hands and has Pierre take her up to a room.

Once he is alone Dracula sits down and reads the letter while getting emotional over his long lost love.

Scene 6 / Featuring Lorain / (song 11)
Lorain wakes up on a couch in a room. Slowly she starts to remember what she had only just learned and is excited to have finally found the mysterious Dracula. Suddenly Stephen appears, crawling in through an open window. He came to rescue her from the monster Dracula but Lorain doesn’t want to leave. This is what she had been searching for and she was so close to understanding it. Stephen tries to refuse but there is a knock at the door and he has to run away back out the window alone. The door opens and Pierre comes in with a long beautiful red dress for Lorain to wear. He tells her to put it on and leaves again. Once she is alone again Lorain gets excited and is so incredibly happy. She takes up the dress.

Scene 7 / Featuring Dracula, Stephen, Lorain, Pierre and Ensemble / (song 12)
Now we are looking at some local square. There are some normal people about to be attacked by the vampires but Stephen appears with his soldiers. They circle the vampires, letting the civilians escape, and prepare to battle. Lorain runs into the middle of them asking Stephen to stop and that they are not bad. Pierre tells her that humans will never understand and the vampires end up battling the vampires. Pierre takes Lorain off to safety. After watching Lorain run off Stephen kills several of the vampires and watches his men being bitten before he himself grabs a vampire and bites the vampire’s neck, choosing to become a vampire himself.

ACT II
Year 1924
Scene 8 / Featuring Lorain and Ensemble / (song 13)
The setting is a casino. The ensemble is dancing and singing playfully holding large playing cards, again with red clothes hanging from their mouths and we know that really the vampires own this casino. It’s the circus all over again just with a new face. Lorain comes in with a glass of blood in her hand. She looks completely different and she seems much colder than she used to be. At one point she even grabs one of the vampires and bites them and drains more of their blood into her glass before walking over and putting it onto a tray a waiter is holding. Dracula is there looking on emotionless at the chaotic group. Lorain is obviously in love with him and has been all this time but acts slightly nonchalant about it. Suddenly Pierre calls Dracula from the side and says he needs to see him right away. The two run off and Lorain looks concerned.

Scene 9 / Featuring Dracula / (song 14)
Dracula is walking down a street looking at posters for a new musical called ‘Romeo & Juliet’. The story of two lovers who weren’t allowed to love each other and die together instead. He recounts that it is actually based off of his story with Adriana and feels heart broken all over again.

Scene 10 / Featuring Sandra and Stephen / (song 15, 16 and 17)
Sandra is on stage and reenacts the first scene where she took the poison and died but after a moment you hear applause and she gets up and bows to the crowd. She goes backstage to her dressing room and is dolling up when Stephen comes in. He asks her if she is Sandra and she says yes. (I may be wrong about this but this is what I understood) He tells her she is a wonderful actress and he admires her skills. She is happy but then he adds that he will pay her richly to plays the real role of Juliet. The role of Adriana. Then he leaves. She wonders if she or not but in the end decides to.

Scene 11 / Featuring Stephen, ? and Ensemble / (song 18 and 19)
Now we see Stephen and another guy (or the same guy??) who looks like a pope. We come to realize that Stephen is plotting with this man to destroy Dracula once and for all. He tells Stephen to go kill Dracula. Stephen, who seems to have become twisted over the ages, sings about how he will kill Dracula and get back what is his. Lorain?

Scene 12 / Featuring Dracula, Sandra, Lorain and Ensemble / (song 20 and 21)
We see Lorain in the castle alone. She seems nicer than she did in the casino and cheerful. She’s singing sweetly and walks over to a potted plant, picks it up and begins to sing to it when Pierre walks in. He is about to say something to her when suddenly Sandra walks in. As soon as Lorain sees her she drops the vase and leans down from hurting herself. Pierre begins to run to Sandra but stops and instead goes to Lorain. Dracula appears and Lorain watches on helplessly as he walks to Sandra. Pierre leads Lorain away leaving the couple behind.

They begin to talk. Dracula asks her a question she doesn’t know the answer to so she suddenly fakes a headache. Instantly Dracula cares for his ‘love’. After a short moment of talking Dracula accepts that Sandra is Adriana and brings her away with him to his crypt. As the doors go to close the two kiss. (Idk if they really kiss. It looked pretty freaking real…)

Right as they have gone inside Lorain runs up screaming. She runs to the crypt and bangs on it begging Dracula to come back out. She runs to the table Dracula had sat Sandra at to rest and grabs up a chair. She runs up the stairs to the door of the crypt and throws it as hard as she can. It makes a loud noise but no one answers.

Scene 13 / Featuring Sandra, Lorain and Stephen / (song 22 and 23)
Now we see Sandra standing outside singing to the moon about falling in love and we realize she too has fallen for Dracula. She debates with herself about if she should allow herself to love him but in the ends decides that she is ‘Adriana’ now. She is smiling peacefully in the gardens when Lorain comes running up to her. Screaming she grabs Sandra’s neck and begins choking her. She knows there is no way Sandra can really be Adriana and is just using Dracula’s broken heart to trick him. Pierre runs up and tries to separate the two.

He is in the middle of doing this when Stephen appears with his warriors. They wrap Lorain up in chains to contain her, the soldiers struggling against her power. Pierre tries to help her but is wounded by Stephen. With Pierre lying on the ground wounded, Sandra at his side crying, Stephen admits that everything has gone according to plan. He will take Lorain away and if Dracula comes for her then he will kill him. To make his point he kills Pierre causing both girls to cry and scream. As she is being dragged away Lorain begs Sandra not to let Dracula come for her. The last thing we hear is Stephen’s insane cackling.

Scene 14 / Featuring Lorain, Dracula, Stephen, Sandra and Ensemble / (song 24, 25 and 26)
In a dark empty prison room (inside an empty church perhaps) Sandra is seen chained by both hands to the ground. She stands wearing rags. After a moment we realize that her face has been disfigured with two large slashes below her eyes bleeding. She sings about being trapped and we realize that she was blinded by Stephen (perhaps his personal commentary that she had been ‘blind all along’) She collapses to the ground crying out for Dracula.

(This is when Dracula starts off in the audience walking slowly down the aisle. The moment I got to watch him walk so close to me that I couldn’t even breath *A*)

Dracula, now seeing what has become of his Lorain, is horrified. He now realizes that he had her by his side all this time and never even realized. He goes to her, certain he will free her. Stephen appears with his warriors. After defeating them one by one (in an amazing battle scene!) Dracula, who has appeared to have been wounded in the end, goes to Stephen. The two battle only momentarily because Dracula is obviously weakened. Stephen stabs him once then again. The second time Dracula falls down the stairs halfway. Stephen is busy cackling at his success when suddenly the demons who had once cursed Dracula, grab Stephen. (I’m not sure why, perhaps because he technically killed his ‘maker’) They drag him into ‘hell’, him screaming as he is pulled down into the ground.

With Stephen gone, Dracula struggles across the space to where Lorain is chained. He gets to her and weakly tries to break her chains but he is on the brink of death and doesn’t have the strength. He ends up collapsing down in front of her. With his last breath telling her that he is sorry. Only now seeming to realize that Dracula is there, Lorain finds his face and drags his head into her lap. Sobbing over him as he dies.

Sandra runs in and sees the two. She comes up behind Lorain and the two sing about how they loved him and how they are sorry to him.

The End.

That experience sounded wonderful  I'm still laughing at the part where he spit on you, hahahaha 

It really was. Being able to stare at my ultimate bias unabashed from the 5th row for like two hours or something was fantastic. I never realized how great it is to just watch them stand in one place.

 

I actually got really sick shortly after and my friend joked that either Sungkyu gave me mono or I'm allergic to him

[ZombehPanda]

I honestly like having the different threads. It makes it easier to keep up with everything since each thread is moving at a different, slower, pace. Also, I can feel free to spam all my fav pics/gifs without feeling bad hehe.

 

My favorite Sungkyu pics:

 

 

[ZombehPanda]

 

Hair up spam.

 

And this will be the last thing I see before I finally go to bed (at 6:36am?) Thank you.

[ZombehPanda]

I wonder if those rumors are legit:

Part of me feels really sad hearing that...Sungkyu is a lot skinner than I would like but at least I believe he's healthy.

[ZombehPanda]

wow these people who find this stuff out really amaze me. That being said...how am I supposed to not imagine him only wearing those when I read this????

[ZombehPanda]

I wonder what the Infinite comeback means for the rumoured Sunggyu spring comeback, maybe they've pushed it back until later in the year ~

I am still holding onto the faint hope that we will see Sungkyu's comeback in April before the group comeback in May. If not, I'll wait as long as it takes.

 

this thread is so active now i-

 

his current middle part hair is so ugly

 

plz never do it again oppa xoxo

At first I thought I didn't like the center part but tbh I love every style on that handsome boy.

[ZombehPanda]

I just worry that if they squeeze his comeback in too close before the group comeback, the promotions will be cut short since he'll be busy with things like practice etc and it might tire him out as well. I want his comeback to be perfect when he does come back, so I don't mind waiting a bit longer (even though I really can't wait for it). The group comeback might be in late may though so I'm holding onto hope too

I really want him to rest up too. The only thing is I was really hoping we could show our love for him on his bday by helping it win 1st place. I wanna do the same thing I did last year again this year but with his new album. For his 25th bday I bought 25 copies of Another Me.

[ZombehPanda]

Lmao, forcing each other down

 

 

 

 

Also:

 

 

 

 

GyuYa is starting to be a thing for me

[ZombehPanda]

OMG so first off let me say that lets PLEASE not change Sungkyu's badge UNLESS we have like the absolute most perfect badge like ever. Since he is my forever Ultimate Bias I REALLY want to love the badge. Since I love his face I'll prolly love whatever we pick but I've seen some pretty cruddy badges make it before.

 

From the ones Skye mocked these are the ones I like as much/more than the current badge:

(btw, if we go with vampire gyu I will forever cry every time I post anything because I actually saw the musical from the 'special' front seats so this means SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much to me ;A;)

 

btw, would totally be ok with not changing the badge at all. I love the current badge more than words can describe.

Edited March 15, 2015 by ZombehPanda

[ZombehPanda]

Vampire Gyu is sexy but I'm not sure about the quality 

I can get you a HD scan of the actual brochure from the musical if it would help.

[ZombehPanda]

This is cute, what do you think?

OMG YES! I need to see a mock of them but OMG YES!

btw awake now so getting to work on all the mocks and scans I promised ;D

[ZombehPanda]

Didn't have time this morning to get the scan but will deff do it tonight. Meanwhile...

I FREAKING LOVE THIS ONE!!!!!!!!

[ZombehPanda]

Annyeong! Thread hopping and I can't resist visiting this one. B2uty, Inspirit here. Sung... Yeol... Sung... Gyu... Oops, right GyuYeol shipper. This thread gives me too much feels. I think I better leave now before I decide to trade Yeol for Gyu ^^ 

 

I'm really happy Infinite has leader Gyu! So proud of him for being able to keep up with the boys and holding the team together. ^^

 

PS. Looking forward to his solo activities!

 

ooooo welcome here too!!!

 

I am super excited about his solo activities too but so glad that Infinite is totally focused on Japan right now

Edited March 17, 2015 by ZombehPanda

[ZombehPanda]

finally made a Gyu mock. Don't judge me too hard. I personally loved Back era.

[ZombehPanda]

i personally want this pic

Even if it wasn't a bad crop I still wouldn't want that picture as the badge ^^;;; I don't like seeing my baby hurt (even fake hurt)

[ZombehPanda]

I love his Dilemma look too! 

-

Poor bby, he never gets to enjoy himself in Japan:

 

I wonder if they did a One Fine Day would they want to go to Japan. That would make me really really happy. I should send Sungkyu postcards showing him how beautiful my island is and how relaxing it would be to come here.

[ZombehPanda]

 

 

 and

 

 

 

don't know if they were shared already but also you guys keep talking about the meaning of the mv where is it????

[ZombehPanda]

This tumblr post summarises the theories about the mv quite nicely

Thanks! I honestly already felt like the girl in the mv had died but I never connected it that way. Interesting ^^

[ZombehPanda]

btw, the link for the HC teaser didn't work for me (apparently they don't like Japan T_T). Do you guys know where I can find another upload of it??? I'm obviously dying to see it as you can tell from my sig >_>;;

[ZombehPanda]

 

 

Who are these two with WooGyu? I don't know them.

[ZombehPanda]

Cr. abusedmember

This melts my heart. I really love these two and was really sad that Epik High isn't with Woollim anymore. This moment means so much to me.

 

 

Hello KBS instagram update
