When will your faves: 2PM @ KBS Gayo Daechukje Edition

[skidadler.livejournal.com]

A performance so great it needed its own post. I thought about side-eyeing Minjun's "urban" vibe. Then, I saw Taec impersonating a pimp, Khun as a mad scientist, Junho riding a tricycle, and Wooyoung dressed up as a clown with the cast of "The Wizard of Oz" as his backup dancers. After all of that, all I could do was just nod and go with it. Chan looking fine in that tux, though.

ETA: Because this gif is necessary...

This is CRAAAZY. I LOVE it! I think my favourite part is when Khun gets sprayed with paint and the back dancers were mopping the mess at the same time, that was cool. And the remix is on point.
2PM always bringing it in these end-of-year mess.

I love that they're the only ones that can pull this off and make it good. Between Wooyoung and Taec, I don't even know who made me laugh harder. And his royal pimpness' OKCat bling... I just can't with them. I love it.

I was thinking of side-eyeing Minjun's style too, but I think it's obvious they weren't taking this seriously here. khottests were joking that Taec was cosplaying Mingki, so that's my head canon.

I love these boys. They know when to be serious about shit and when it's okay to GO CRAZY! I love these boys ;_;

[skidadler.livejournal.com]

Yeah, when I first saw it I was bracing myself for the worst. But then I saw everything else and I was like, they're so not serious about this. There's just so much going on I couldn't really pinpoint on highlight of that number. I can't wait to see how they'll top it at MBC.

this looks really fun
gives me reggaeton vibes lol

[turtles-tszx.livejournal.com]

One of the best performance, i didnt expect anything but it's awesome like seriously okcat bling? They were just having fun and i love the fact that they interact with the audience as well.

[fadeintoyou.livejournal.com]

so much crazy going on I love it. one of the things I really like about 2PM is they never take themselves too seriously and know when to pull these stunts and have fun.

[baddiemey.livejournal.com]

Mess.

This actually made GD look better by comparison.

[agoongprincess.livejournal.com]

the difference is GD is actually serious while they're aren't.

[dickslikejesus.livejournal.com]

Don't act like Junsu doesn't think he's cool in this kinda style. Look at anything that boy does he's a complete try hard. You can like him that's fine ain't nothing wrong with that, but boy is a try hard.

[agoongprincess.livejournal.com]

i hardly know anything about 2pm other than 3 of their singles so i can't say anything about them really but it doesn't seem like they're trying anything here but being silly. then again, i don't know much about them so you're probs right. regardless OP comparing them to GD was a bit of a reach

Here for Chansung looking dapper and Taec's OKCAT bling.

This performance had me dying XD I absolutely loved it! Definitely one of the most exciting performances of the night! *O*

[agoongprincess.livejournal.com]

honestly this remix of really dull & boring. the audience was so dead too. i feel bad for them, it's a song where they should be getting pumped but ppl were probs like "WTF wheres Exo" or w/e. I loved this comeback overall though, im sad it kinda of flopped.

edit: watching it again and i actually really like. it could have been less dull in the arrangement but overall it was still fun

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

lmao, this was pretty funny.

[bulleusekat.livejournal.com]

At least they had fun, would have been better if they did not slow down the song, too slow for it to be fun...

[viakyusu.livejournal.com]

People calling this boring or tryhard obvi didn't watch the other performances....2PM had me dying!! I saw tumblr pics and was like wtffffffff then I saw the performance if it's true that this was Taec's idea then it makes sense lmao I love everything about this!! Stay crazy and fun 2PM!

[dickslikejesus.livejournal.com]

This performance sucks the song sucks and they look funny and that's all fine and well but they took this song from a 6 to a 2 with the remix. Normally I really like 2PM's stupid on stage, but they went full dumb on this one.

Also lol at everyone defending Junsu like he doesn't act "urban" regularly. True Swag never forget.

[izumichan31.livejournal.com]

Do you even follow 2pm? If you did, you'd know his name hasn't been Junsu in a couple of years. Please. True Swag was one song. You must have missed his Japanese album if you're stuck on that. Have you watch any of their Go Crazy performances? Everyone's styling has been ridiculous this comeback and they know it. They haven't been serious this whole comeback. No one is taking this seriously and they definitely aren't. You need to calm down.

[dickslikejesus.livejournal.com]

Perfectly calm? You're the one getting all stressed out?

The fact that everyone is deciding not to side eye him because "no one is taking it seriously" is the line that bothers me. If you're going to decide that it's problematic that other people act that way but not when 2pm and "JUN.K", since you're so particular about it, are doing it because they aren't "Taking it seriously" then that's ridiculous. Call it out when it happens no matter what or don't call it out. This dude and all his #brothas can have a seat.

[izumichan31.livejournal.com]

I meant to reply to this yesterday but got busy...

From what I see. You don't like him and that's all fine. But in my opinion and this goes for every idol every person not an idol. The act of simply wearing a style of clothing isn't problematic. I'm black just so you know. With the exception of Traditional Clothing, Native American, African tribal clothes etc. People can wear whatever style of dress they want whether people like it or not. Once a style is out there anyone can wear it. Clothes are clothes.

People are problematic with the things they say and do. Not what they wear. And honestly you can use whatever words you want to as long as they're not slurs and you're not being offensive.

I side eye Jun.K for some of the things that come out of his mouth and if he says or does something that I think is problematic I'll say it. The same goes for any other group or individual I like.

Also you say call it out when it happens no matter what but you've just really nitpicked nitpick Jun.K and didn't even mention Taec and his giant white coat with okcat bling, With the exception of Chansung, everything about this stage is silly and ridiculous from clown!Wooyoung to Junho on a tricycle to ad scientist!Khun, Taec's pink suit under that coat, and the color choice of Jun.K's clothes is too ridiculous for there to even be anything wrong here.

But of course that's just me and I of course am not everyone.

[frankoceans.livejournal.com]

tell it

[chyren.livejournal.com]

this remix is hella sick!!! way more interesting than the original
jun-k looks more like yakuza

[keki7.livejournal.com]

Wooyoung's crew is the wizard of oz, Junho rolls up, like literally rolls, in my baby cousin's ride and Taecyeon is giving hello kitty a run for the money.

Ya'll see what crazy geniuses JYP has to deal with?

[cedric-mcfly.livejournal.com]

I think both the performance and remix were great esp for this sort of thing, a stage at an end-of-year show.

I lost it whith Junho and his tricycle thingie!
