Tonight With Lee Seung-Gi’s Premiere in Jakarta A Success


 
Airens will never forget for his repetitive remark that evening, one week passed – “Indonesian fans here are just amazing. Your reactions are found nowhere else; this is the first time I have received such amazing reaction and it’s making me excited!” confessed the singer who had his first official fanmeet in Jakarta, Indonesia, Lee Seung Gi on 4 November 2012.
Opened with the cute melody of ‘My Girlfriend is a Gumiho‘ lead song OST, the multi-talented singer finally showed himself singing with his dance crew, opening his first Jakarta Fanmeet, entitled ‘Tonight With Lee Seung Gi‘. In a specially made tent in front of Mall Taman Anggrek located in the west side of the city, fans who came all over the nation and countries flew in to see him. Flocking in were all the Airens, with a majority of ladies who want to spend tonight with Lee Seung-gi!
“Lee Seung Gi, Lee Seung Gi, Lee Seung Gi!” his fans erupted in chants, and made the MC of the night, local presenter Dave Hendrik to compliment all the crowd saying “you make Indonesia proud with all your cheers to him!”
“Selamat malam, semua! Saya Lee Seung-gi, apa kabar?” the also well-known Strong Heart MC greeted. It means “Good evening all! My name is Lee Seung-gi, how are you?” With this and his great demonstration of Bahasa Indonesia at the Press Conference (3/11), I verdict him as the insofar best South Korean artist who speak it with the best accent.
In return to reply his Indonesian greeting,the host of the night, MC Dave encouraged the crowd to reply because “he has already asked you guys. Now it’s our turn to greet him in his mother tongue. 1, 2, 3…”
“Annyeonghaseyo!”
Seung-gi himself looked surprised and ultimately pleased by the gesture. He remarked a lot of times that night that “Indonesian fans are really very different. You guys have, so far, the best reaction I have ever received and I have never seen before! I thank you for your warm greetings and greatest reactions that is very fun to see, I’m sure we’re going to have a great time tonight!”
He also had his childish moment where he was skeptic with the answer. “The reaction is so great, it feels like your upcoming concert is like this,” MC Dave questioned, “Indonesia Airens will definitely be visiting Seoul for his concert right?” and a unison of “Yes!” was heard.
“Are you sure?” Seung-Gi sharply asked, just like he hosted it himself. “Promise?” and then made a merong face by the positive answer. “Okay! I will see you soon okay!”

The fanmeet was divided into several games, and Q&A session. He learnt more Bahasa Indonesia words very quickly even though he admitted that he only knows “sedikit” (little). “Aku, cinta, kamu,” (I love you) he repeated after MC Dave. “Kamu, cantik.” (You are beautiful) The reaction was great and immediately continued with laughter when MC Dave adviced him to know “Aku, mau, nambah” so he can order more of his favorite Indonesian dish, Nasi Goreng (fried rice)!
With his gestures and quick witted person as he is also trained as a host and MC, it was a unique view of him being the entertainer and the one organizing and taking care for all the fans to “not get hurt. Let’s be calm and do it again, okay?” where fans rushed wildly to the microphone during a game segment.
Clearly a man who is game and composed in any situation, his judgement on one game where fans had to draw his portrayal of his “Ideal Woman” was sharp but entertaining. He describe three features for his fans to draw: “My ideal woman… she must have the most beautiful smile. She has long wavy hair and if her eyes are not too big, that’s okay too.” Within 10 seconds, the fans quickly sketched out, and resulted a laugh from the audience and the star himself.
“Let me see… she is beautiful but… her smile is very wide! This one… wow, where is her eyes? This is funny, too. Oh dear… did you draw a man?” MC Dave noted how “she drew her character with a goatee, how can this be!” But at last, one picture was chosen as everyone admired the drawing because it was close to his description.
He couldn’t even hold his happiness when the game question gets tricky or hard. Lovingly hugging all the winners and losers of the games alike, the practice run of the game made him extremely excited that he joined his winning fan in jumping and hugging each other. It was the question of “Fill In The Missing Lyrics” where a melody is played, and the fan had to rush to the mic and sang the next sentence of the song. The practice song was his very first track release, “She Is Mine” back in 2006.
“I will get to really know my fans whether they are a fan of me being an actor, or since the start of my singing career,” he commented before all games commenced.

The fan rushed to sing the next part of the song and “Deng!” shouted Seung-gi, meaning the answer was correct. The fan jumped to him as he smiled so wide he also extended his arms to hug. MC Dave had to remind him that “this is only a rehearsal! Wait for a moment, this is only a test!” while pulling them both away. The entertainer just laughed at his mistake whilst saying, “I’m sorry, I became so excited that I have forgotten that this is just a rehearsal!” What a sight to see the artist himself going happy towards a long time fan!
Soon after, as if only a few minutes had passed thanks to the great chemistry played on set with the wit of the MC and Seung-gi himself, it was time to end the fanmeet with the last round of songs. The crowd couldn’t bear to part and shouted for more. Seung-gi looked at his watch and say “You guys have to go home, it is late!” but they only replied “It’s okay!” With a smile and assurance from his fans, he took the stage away with his riotous and upbeat acts of “Smile Boy”, “Let’s Go On A Vacation”, and the most requested song “Will You Marry Me‘ with a song he penned on his own for his upcoming new album that as of today, the title wasn’t shared by the singer.
The concert ended in joyful glee after more than 140 minutes of laughter, games and lucky Airens getting repetitive hugs. Lee Seung-gi certainly left a little piece of his natural charm in all of us, and we cannot wait for his next return with a hopeful concert in the future!
