I'm glad I watched this because aside from loving Braces.T's responses, I was introduced to the band HyukOh. I decided to check them out shortly after watching, and I love their music. Here's a post that was made on here not too long ago ( x ) that was missed in the monthly music recap. And I read in passing that their music has soared on the charts, so good things. Special shoutout to VIUP, lol.

this line up is truly incredible.
I'm so happy that hyukoh is in there. they're amazing and deserve more love from the mainstream...

this festival line up is a refresh for my relationship with IC. I've always loved the show, but I was not feeling the recent episodes, and now here I am, waiting for subs like there is no tomorrow. lol

the vocalist of hyukoh and zion t sounded so good. I need subs for the next ep ASAP!

[sakuragirl24.livejournal.com]

Slay Hyukoh!!!

Zion T. is the hidden variety gem, someone invite him to Hello Counselor and Running Man. Hyukoh is great and I feel sorry for them when they are too nervous to speak.

I loved, how everyone bragged about knowing IU personally and then they couldn't guess her correctly except for Hyungdon.

JYP was trying really hard not to dance lmao

This was my first time seeing Zion T. on variety and he's really funny and charming at the same time (I was laughing so hard with his comments) I've heard a couple of songs from him but now I want to check more.

IU is a genius guessing all the other guests, I was so surprised.

I felt a little bad for Hyukoh because it was clear they were all nervous to be there.

Great lineup!!!

This ep gave me stomachache from laughing too much!
I'm so looking forward to IU and JYP~
I just checked out Hyukoh's songs and they're really nice :)

ok i've only watched 1 min so far ... omg why is hyungdon so obsessed with making that maasai tribe ~joke? he's done it a few times on weekly idol. ugh.

when i saw that zion.t got braces ... i didn't know it was possible to love him even more.
one time i walked right next to him (coincidentally, not stalking) for like 3 blocks in hongdae and he is so small and cool. i luv him.

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

Has he really been making that joke for a while? I honestly didn't catch all of what he said since I was multitasking when I watched it the first time, but I went back and.....yeah, of COURSE that joke would be made, is it Tuesday?

[ironicmustache.livejournal.com]

yeah, he def said it to infinite's sungyeol when he came on WI looking all tan and glorious. i have a vague recollection of another time, but i cant remember who he said it to.

I watched this ep a while ago so don't know if I remember correctly but didn't it become a running joke the whole episode? Like even Yoo Jaesuk referred to Jung Junha as "our tribe leader"? I guess Junha went on LOTJ

[fabulousdoll.livejournal.com]

I got sick of laughing so much. My head and throat hurts.
Every time someone from Hyukoh or Zion T. talked I lost it.

[yohan94.livejournal.com]

why does this show take so long to sub conpared to others im dying waiting for the next ep

[jaelissi.livejournal.com]

I must have a thing for painfully inarticulate artists, cause I wanted to squish Zion.T and Oh Hyuk so bad. Hyuk's little smile when IU requested his songs, was beyond adorable. *rewind*

[tree-star123.livejournal.com]

iu is good at this guessing game. lol at everyone showing off that they are close with iu.
zion t needs to be on more shows.

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

i shouldn't read all those articles about iu on the show
she really guessed everything right lol
zion t needs to do more variety for real

[ah0000.livejournal.com]

Sooooo good. Zion T is pretty funny

[love-keiko.livejournal.com]

OP bless u for that hyukoh post. i LOVE that release ohhyuk did with primary i had NO IDEA he was in a band and his voice is beautiful and he's so awkward and cute like zion t. so now i'm gonna go listen to every song he's ever done ever ty goodbye.

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

I didn't think anyone else here knew about them until I found the post...lol. But you're welcome, and thanks to the OP of that post because it was such a good place to start.

[sundaetea.livejournal.com]

I was laughing so hard at when the "inner dialogue" for hyukoh came on.

[kicking-tenshi.livejournal.com]

lol zion t and hyukoh are so frigging cute. When they dubbed oh hyuk... I died.

This lineup is crazy though.

[cosmopudin.livejournal.com]

can somebody explain this show to me?

[waves-of-light.livejournal.com]

The show itself? Or the festival?

[cosmopudin.livejournal.com]

Both?

[waves-of-light.livejournal.com]

You've never watched it before?!?

[cosmopudin.livejournal.com]

lol nopee

[waves-of-light.livejournal.com]

oh wow, i find that fascinating. it's been on for over ten years.

the show is basically just a group of guys who are given challenges and missions to accomplish. anything from being college cheerleaders to pretending they were salary workers in an office, to raising elephants in africa. usually if there's some big event (like the olympics) they tie it in (like learning rhythmic gymnastics). most of the challenges only last an episode or two, a few last longer. a few years back they did an epic rowing challenge, where the members and some of their famous friends trained to become rowers for months to compete against professionals. there also was a huge wresting challenge, and they performed in front of an area full of people.

anywhos. this is the fourth (i think) festival, where the cast partners up with singers/producers to put on a concert. the show follows them as they go through the process of recording and producing the music, and the whole big group all usually go for a little vacay together. the songs are original, and some become really popular after the show airs. if i remember correctly, back in 2011 the show actually apologized for dominating the charts.

my fav festival was the west coast highway in 2011. like seriously, ALL of the performances were epic, but these are my favorites

Myunsoo, GD, and Bom (he was so obsessed with gd. bom was a surprise and she was awesome and i miss her)



PSY and Hongchul (they killed it. psy does this at his concerts now)



Sweet Sorrow and Junha (this will be stuck in your head forever)



Bada x Gil (she is so lovely)



Jaesuk and Lee Juck (dancing grasshopper)

[johnnyquest89.livejournal.com]

no future liger?

[cosmopudin.livejournal.com]

oh my idk why I didn't know lol Thank youuu! That GD one lol

[waves-of-light.livejournal.com]

The festival shows are always so good...I still watch the west coast highway ones, it was sooo fun

[evilsquidx.livejournal.com]

I'm obsessed with zion t's performance I've watched it back so many times, he sounds great

[jaelissi.livejournal.com]

This so much. I show it to everyone who will still sit through my shit for two minutes.
