As some of you might know, the Wonder Girls recently kicked off the North American leg of their Wonder Girls tour. In select cities, their opening acts included 2AM or 2PM.

Did you guys read that? I said..

2PM!!

It was the perfect opportunity. They had scheduled a Houston date for 6/9, and it had 2PM opening. Me being the crazy fan that I am, I knew I had to go. Despite my mixed feelings about the whole Jay controversy and the horrible but sadly believable rumors about them, I couldn’t pass up the chance to see them in person.

They had 2 different kinds of tickets-$35 for general admissions and $150 for VIP. I was so sad that I was way broke and couldn’t bear spending $100+ on tickets, even though it included a meet-and-greet and autographs/pictures. NEXT year though, you bet your ass that I will be there…and all over my 2PM boys!

Me with my ticket!

In the venue…it was so packed!

Me and AH before the concert

So being on surgery and all, I knew that I couldn’t be there super early and get an awesome seat. I left St. Joe’s at around 4:30 and then went home and got read. AH and I got to the venue at around 6, and there was already a huge line. I had some last minute kinks with getting my ticket (now I know to not wait until the last minute to buy a ticket…) but ended up getting it no problem. We waited outside for around an hour, with random cheers erupting from the crowd. Finally around 6:45, they started letting VIP’s in. Then at 7:10 they started letting the general admissions people in. Once in, AH and I managed to get some pretty decent seats on the right side of the stage pretty close to the front. But omg, the pushing/shoving was SO annoying! I’m glad that I decided to wear high heels, because I’m pretty sure I was taller than 80% of the people there with my heels on, which = better visibility, har har har. Everytime the curtains came up, people would scream, so there were a ton of false alarms. Finally at 8:05 we see hadowy black figures walking out…and the music starts. Thank goodness I had already whipped my camera out and was filming, otherwise I would’ve totally missed it! I was kinda expecting there to be some sort of introduction from JYP, like in the NYC concerts, but it didn’t happen. Anyway, once the lights turn on, I just went like 0______0!! because they were UNBELIEVABLY HOT! Especially TAEC! I was like OMFG I couldn’t breathe, the man was PERFECTION! Tall, muscular, and just flawless…100x better looking in person! I wanted to have his babies right then and there. They performed ‘Without U’ then transitioned to ‘I Hate You’ before introducing themselves (the boys who couldn’t speak English were so cute and shy..I half expected Junho to introduce himself as 2PM again ). They then went on to perform ‘Heartbeat’.

Yea my video is a bit nausea-inducing because I couldn’t find a good angle at first and plus I was really excited and jumping around a lot…but it gets better I promise!

Then they did Again & Again

They talked a little bit more..

Finally they end with 10 out of 10..and my camera was running out of memory! I was retarded and didn’t free up as much memory as I needed to…so I only got about half the performance. It’s ok though, I got the parts where Taec rubs the bubble-butt…:) This perf was cute because during Khun’s ‘Lalala’ part, he did the NU-ABO dace, giving props to his ‘We Got Married’ wife. You should’ve heard the screams from the girls when he did that! Unfortunately, that was after my camera pooped out on me.

All in all, I thought their performance was outstanding. Vocals were pretty spot on even though Junsu was missing. I was a bit upset that the members covered Jay’s parts instead of leaving his vocals in. The dancing and charisma were out of this world. I think Taec did make eye contact with me at some point because he would come up to the front of the stage a lot to tease the fans, and because I was taller than most of the other girls in my heels, I think he spotted me. Or perhaps it’s just my wishful thinking. After seeing pics from the other concerts, I’m a bit disappointed that they didn’t wear cutoff shirts to show of their amazing arms, but hey I could still appreciate their rippling muscles underneath their shirts. Plus, we had the added bonus of none of them wearing hats, so we could all see their sexy hairstyles…Taec’s was the best of course. And TAEC BABY DIDN’T RIP OFF HIS SHIRT! ARGH! Well at least it seems that he hasn’t ripped it off during any of the concerts so far, so it’s not just Houston…haha.

Here is my one clear picture of them:

Their pants were glowing haha! Poor Taec baby looks constipated…oh wells. He recently got hooked onto Twitter and uploaded a picture and judging from the hair and clothes, it looks like it was taken before they got on stage for the Houston conert..

So after that excitement…finally WG came on. Their silhouettes first came on, and then after much anticipation, the curtain dropped and there the girls were in all their glory. They started off with singing ‘I wanna love you’, then a song that I didn’t know. Then came introductions and their rendition of PCD ‘Dontcha’ and their own ‘So Hot’.

Can I just say that Yoobin is uber-hot? I was quite mesmerized.

Then they did the Rainstone remix of ‘Nobody’. After that came solo’s…Hae Lim did Lil Mama’s ‘Lip Gloss’, Yoobin danced to ‘Boom Boom Pow’, Sohee did ‘Single Ladies’, Yenny sang ‘Mercy’, and Sun covered Lady Gaga’s ‘Paparazzi’. Those solos were kinda eh to me. I know they do them all the time in Korea, but I would much rather hear the WG sing their own sings than cover American artists in their still (for the most part) heavily accented English. Then as a group they sang Destiny’s Child’s ‘Survivor’.

After that they changed clothes again and sang their new song ’2 Different Tears’ and then taught us the ‘Tell Me’ dance…as if there was room to dance in there!

After ‘Tell Me’ ended they pretended like that was the end of the concert and went backstage. The crowd started screaming, “Encore, encore!” After a few minutes the screen in the background flashed “Do you want more wonder girls?’ and asked us to scream. It kept on asking us to scream louder like 10 more times, I was so tired at the end! Finally the girls popped back onstage in their glittery ‘Nobody’ dresses and performed the last song of the night.

After that the girls bowed, smiled, and waved their good-byes to the crowd. I was half-hoping that 2PM would come out with them at the curtain call and do another bow so I could try to get another picture of them, but alas it was not to be.

All in all, it was an awesome concert experience, but I feel like the 2PM boys did better. Yoobin and Sun had the most charisma, and Yenny has an amazing voice. I’ve always found Sohee to be overrated, and I’m still neutral on Hae Lim. Sun and Yoobin were SO skinny though. I knew Yoobin had lost a lot of weight after ppl kept on calling her fat, but I never thought that Sun would be so tiny! Her waist was like a stick, lol. I can’t wait for them to come back next year…when I definitely will buy a VIP ticket!!

P.S. My Wonder Girls videos are posted on my Youtube channel..http://www.youtube.com/user/tayazsweetluv. I’m too lazy to post them all one by one on here, haha. Hope you guys enjoyed reading summary of my fangirl-ness
