Jo Kwon plans to wear 19.5 cm high heels on his comeback stage

[hisjulliet.livejournal.com]

The singer recently shared his determination to complete his entire stage choreography in the staggering heels for his “Animal” stage. Through OSEN, he expressed, “I decided on the heels after thinking of ways to show off something sexy yet powerful for my choreography concept. When I danced to miss A, I wore heels and found that it wasn’t that bad. The heels were made for women and imported from the States, but I think they fit me well.”

The shoes don’t actually have support under the heel part to give the effect of the wearer floating, so Jo Kwon will have to pay particular attention to his balance. Fortunately, he’s been practicing in them to look as natural as possible.

He continued, “I’m planning to show something completely out there and unique, something that only Jo Kwon can pull off. I know that people are looking forward to, but also concerned with what I’ll come up with. I’m sure that people will be wary of what I do come out with, but I’m greedy in wanting to convert them all to my side once I do. I’m excited, but also confident.”

he probably has ten pairs at home and has been practicing in them for years. Jo Kwon isn't just a diva on the weekend--he's this fabulous 24/7

[the-erotomanic.livejournal.com]

this should've been the concept all along. he would so rock those heels. but i'm scared for him if he's going to be using shoes like these:



but definitely looking forward to his performance.

God I love these boots. If only I could walk in heels. :/

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

So gimmicky

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

Good luck to him, break a leg Kwon.

knock on wood

Omg I think the fact that the first suggested search on google when I started with 'jo kwon' was... 'jo kwon gay'... says something about this business.

That's amazing.

[lobotronic.livejournal.com]

I'm grinning so hard. get it Jo Kwon!

PLEASE CAN WE JUST CONSIDER THIS SOLO ALBUM AS HIS WAY OF COMING OUT

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Haven't you heard? There are no such things as gay people in Korea! ;-)

[kiwilovekiwi.livejournal.com]

omg that gif!!! :D
work it Kwon!! I'm sure he can rock them heels!!!

[uledy.livejournal.com]

but why?

[love-keiko.livejournal.com]

YES! GOOD!

[laceandskin.livejournal.com]

Why would anyone subject their feet to such torture?

[shaunriley.livejournal.com]

Appropriate icon is appropriate.
Dumbledore knew the time for heels, and knew when it was not time for heels.

I am beyond excited for this. The more gender bending, the happier I am. (The same thing goes for the ladies too.) Plus it makes a lot of people really uncomfortable and I like seeing these boundaries pushed.

And I love Animal, so I am glad I am going to be able to see a live performance of it.

I just peeked at the comment section on allkpop and the comments over there are exactly why I love when things like this are done.

If I could push this comment to the top of the page, I would.

[xxmannequin.livejournal.com]

omg that gif lmao
but yeah, good luck with that. can't wait for it, tbh lol

[scubajr.livejournal.com]

When I first heard 'Animal', I could only picture him performing it in a half-joking manner. I guess I was right.

[goldynchickie.livejournal.com]

Yas! Get it! Hopefully, he doesn't end up hurting himself.

[hugtimes.livejournal.com]

awh at that guy helping the model up, usually they just ignore the models.
as for jo kwon, his company wouldn't let him do it if he couldn't do it so i'm sure that he'll do fantastically.

[jcdhwg.livejournal.com]

Is that even possible, 20 cm? They must have a huge platform in the front then I guess, lmfao. Dis bitch, I love him sfm. He should perform his 'Liptstick' song in them, that would be fabbbb. A boy singing about lipstick in 20cm heels, sounds like the weekly drag performance in my local gay bar.

[yolleh.livejournal.com]

Pretty sure that's a solid 5 inches

[yolleh.livejournal.com]

I saw this on allkpop and the comments were a steaming mess.
That being said, this is going to be fabulous. Or ridiculously HILARIOUS.
I'm hoping for the latter doe xD

[my-car-is-prada.livejournal.com]

I didn't expect any less. Omgosh his album loool, very high heel worthy for him to strut to.

[spread.livejournal.com]

YASSSS~
WERQ HUNY!!

[dilettantka.livejournal.com]

praying to all available gods that i can see this in person ;~;

[deerlike.livejournal.com]

Jealous tbh!

[angel-9-lives.livejournal.com]

lol, some people are naturals with heels...maybe he's one of those lucky ones? :P

it's probably wrong of me, but if he falls, I'm gonna laugh my ass off. I'll feel bad about it, but yeah XD;;

[obeytheempress.livejournal.com]

i'm not crazy about the album or his concept but it's about time an idol, especially a soloist pushes the boundaries and does something different. i feel like he's really just being himself and performing the music he wants to perform. props.
