Eat Your Kimchi fan meet @ NES, Amsterdam (15/10/2013)

header


WOOHOOO I MET EAT YOUR KIMCHI. For the people who doesn't know who Eat Your Kimchi are, here is a small introduction. Eat Your Kimchi are made up by a married couple Simon & Martina, back in 2008 they moved from Canada to South Korea and they made video to show it their parents but the more video they made the more popular they got. Nowadays they have videos called: Music Monday, WANK, Wednesday TLDR, interviews with kpop artist, etc They have created their own fandom called Nasties.


So when EYK announced that they are holding a small Europe tour and will be having a stop in Amsterdam, I had to see them no matter what. So when I went to get tickets online, after a lot of problems with the site crashing and having to refresh the site for an hour and half. I finally got first rank tickets. It was a shame that my best friend couldn't go so I went alone. As time was getting closer I decided to as some other nasties to see who will be going alone or doesn't know the way and would like to go together since I did know the way either. At end I met some very nice nasties. ^_^


On the day I went to met the fellow nasties at the station and went to NES Comic theatre in Amsterdam. As we arrived the queue for the 2nd rang was very long, but since we got 1st rank tickets we got into another queue. At the time the queue was very short and about 10 minutes later we were allowed to go inside. As we got inside and were almost at the beginning of the queue we got to sit at the 1st and 2nd row (I got the 2nd row all the way at the end ^^"). They were playing some kpop songs as the people were getting inside. When it was 20:05 the music dies down and 2 girls from Hallyucon came on stage and talked about who they are in short and then showed a small video from EYK. The video was hilarious containing bits from their previous videos they have made. After the video was finished Simon & Martina got on stage.


First of all it was question & answer time. There was some funny questions and there were question regarding living in Korea and finding work, etc.  After that was spin the wheel, and SImon spinned it too hard in the beginning. There are 5 category and in each category there are 2 challenges and 2 multiple choice question. There will be points awarded to the winner. At the end Martina lost and had to sing and dance to the magerina (no idea how you spell that) At the end there were photo time and of course we had to give hugs as well. We got to take 2 picture one normal one and one with a theme. Our group choose the theme Kiyomi and every one did the different part of the kiyomi song, my side got to do number 1 ^^.


So here are some picture and videos that I filmed (I filmed the whole meet)

Jay Park (+ Victor) @ The Sand, Amsterdam (25/09/2013)

20130925_152603

YAAAY another concert that I have enjoyed. As you would know by the title and header picture, I went to see Jay Park, I went to his concert none other than my own home town, Amsterdam. When I found out that Jay Park was coming to the Netherlands I was literally jumping around in my room. Tickets sale started on July 29 at 10 am. No matter what I was getting a ticket. of course I did get the ticket at the end and that makes me more happy. As day was getting closer Invazi were having a lot of different contest going on, with winning tickets to winning meet & greets. So I joined the contest since it doesn't hurt joining the contest and I happen to win a meet & greet with Jay Park, YAY.

As I needed to be for the meet & greet really early at the place, I left home early to arrive there. When I arrived I got told that I only have 2 minutes to see Jay Park, take picture and leave. Of course I was sad to hear that I only have 2 minutes to see Jay, its like I can say hi and bye to him. But anyways knowing I can get a picture with him makes me happy enough. So I was in the queue waiting to be my turn  to meet Jay, As the queue was getting shorter, I got really nervous. I was inside and I saw Jay taking pictures and giving out signigture, and then I turn to my right and saw Hep from AOM walking on the sofa, he kinda seemed bored. I took a picture of him, and then he saw me and pointed at himself as in asking am I taking pictures of him so I nodded my head and he made a pose for me to take. It was very nice of him to do that, unfortunatly I forgot to ask for a picture with him together. So when it was finally my turn I asked for an autograph and I got him to sign on the ticket and took a picture with him. I was actually planning to go and ask  Hep for a picture but I forgot as the staff kept on saying "next" as there were a lot of people in the queue.

Afterwards I was waiting outside or my friends to arrive, they arrived around 18:30. I went to the queue waiting to go inside. We were all excited to see to Jay Park. We were talking and of course you cant leave out the group picture ^^ I won't put the group picture here as my friends won't like it.

As we were moving forward, we got inside, of course you can't leave the the toilet break ^^" afterwards I went to look at the stuff they were selling, there were selling the AOMG shirts in black and white and they cost 25 euros, As there were a lot of people I didn't get the chance to look properly what they were selling, I did see a lot of Victor CD's but I didn't get them. So of course I went to get an AOMG shirt, and yof course Jay's little brother Jehan was there as well. Unfortunately he was really busy so I was unable to ask for a picture, but he was the one that was helping me so you could say I talked to him ^^. So we went to get a place in the crowd. Victor started the show, As I was standing quite at the back I was unable to see properly & film anything, put I did make some filming with the help of my friends & some pictures. It started at 8PM and victor performed until 8:45PM. When Victor were performing they also has some solo stages, such as Gyum has some solo rap time, Bie also had a solo stage. In & Choo did some pop n Lock performance.  Since 2 of the members birthday were in a few day the asked who's birthday it was and they got them to go on stage and they did some games (I think) I could barely see so I wasn't all to sure what's going on stage.

When Victor was done we got told that Jay Park won't perform until 9PM so we had about 15 mins break, some of my friends went to get some drink, as I wanted to stay and try to get to the front since I couldn't see anything. As my friends went to get drinks they took a picture with Jehan. I of course was trying to push my way to the front, I did get to the front but there was a girl in front of so there were times that I couldn't see that well. As it was 9PM the mc got on stage and told us to make as much noise we can, if not Jay won't come on stage. After some screaming Jay finally Got on stage and the first song he sang was Nothing On You.  He had a lot of talks between his songs, he also interacted the crowed a lot, which was very nice. The Prepix crew was there to dance with Jay and of course Hep was also dancing. And something you of course would expect Jay to do is taking his shirt off. I am not going to describe everything he did as I got it all on camera.  I really enjoyed the show, and I am already excited for when he comes back again as he promised to be back.

Warp Zone: Video Game Art Show

970075_10201545935039696_572759251_n

On 7 September 2013, I attended Warp Zone. It was hold at Vondelbunker in Amsterdam. My friends and I arrived very early that day around 1pm. At that time there weren't many guest at that time since they were still setting up.  There were quite some stuff that has been set up already, such as art work, laptops with old games on it, and of course they already set up the items they are planning to sell. As time is going by, the setting up is almost done and guest started to arrive.  Everyone was enjoying them self by talking to each other, playing games, or buying items.

I can't exactly remember around what time but I think around 4pm or 5pm that they started to show animations that were made by students, There were a lot of them that I likes some confused me but that could be me XD. When it was done showing a lot a animations, they took a break and a guys started to play some chip tunes. Unfortunately chip tunes is not really my thing so I spend the time outside talking to people. After the chip tunes were done, they showed the 2nd part of the animations, and ones again there were some that I really like, some I didn't and some confusing me. I stayed until they were ending before saying goodbey to every and heading off. I really enjoyed Warp zone, I hope that everyone that went there also enjoyed it.
