“As you should know, B1A4 is not even two years
old yet. But because of all your love, they’re much loved everywhere in
the world and now, for the first time, they are here to celebrate the
night with you!” opened MC Jin. Korea.com was present to witness the
showcase of Jinyoung, Sandeul, CNU, Baro and Gongchan
with a sea of hundreds of BANAs that came to celebrate it together.
Will it be just tens or hundreds, it didn’t stop the great fervor of
cheers and high pitch screams that deafen the entire Skenoo Hall, Gandaria City, Jakarta (12/03). And with that, B1A4 makes a cute entrance following after a comic video that excited all the fans!
“Oh my beautiful target, you zoom zoom heart like a rocket!”
opened the boys with ‘Beautiful Target’. BANA cheered in unison that
reflected their own will of how they like it very much. Other pop hits
that immediately made our feet follow their moves were Bling Girl, Tried
to Walk On, Baby Good Night, Chu Chu Chu and O.K.
“Apa kabar, hello! We are B1A4!” show-offed the five members with their practiced Indonesian skills that wowed the audience
once again.
Gongchan, being the youngest, knew best to use his charms with his Indonesian skills when he greeted. “
Apa kabar, saya Gongchan, imut…? Cintaku,” (Hello, I am Gongchan, the cute one? My love). Attesting to that skill, two members
CNU and
Sandeul, noted for his hyperactive and fluent Indonesian since the
press conference kept on piling up more Indonesian words: “
Sayang, aku suka kamu… Jakarta adalah yang terbaik!” (Honey, I like you… Jakarta is the best!)
Heavily focusing on interaction with BANAs, in the intimate venue
lies a small glitch. There were front-row fans who collapse due to
pushing, and it made the showcase paused a security reasons. CNU
stood up and took the baton to speak for this security and welfare
problem. “If everyone can shush down their voices a little so all of you
can listen in this Q&A session and take care to have unwanted
problems by not pushing your friends please. Thank you!” We
applaud all fans and the organizer to patiently adjust the situation to
let all fans sit down instead of standing up, and so everyone has a
clear chance to view their favorite singers.
‘B1A4 Cinema’, was a unique way to invite their fans up on stage
and re-enact the shown movie poster poses. The very intimate poses from Titanic, Twilight Saga New Moon, and Indonesian’s very own movie Saus Kacang was
shown with the video graphic of a deck of cards. While the lucky four
fans that has gotten a chance to hug one of the members and a polaroid
to commemorate the moment, there was one fan who thought she has chosen
the worst card – the BOMB card. But alas! It wasn’t just any bad bomb at
all – B1A4 especially had made the lucky girl receive a twist plot and
was lavishly treated with a bouquet of flowers, balloons, gave her a
drink, and be brought around the stage while they sang to her!
As promised, the showcase that was over 90 minutes was full of
immersing graphics and bright laser lights, followed with a rhythmic
fireworks burst that totally made their intimate showcase an amazing
end. Finishing with ‘You’re My Girl’, Korea.com knows that all the
Indonesian BANA babies had a good sleep last night to bring into their
sweet dreams that the quintet has notably said to return with a bigger
stage and that everyone is their girl!
