Super Show II Shanghai



The big news over the weekend is of course Super Junior's Super Show II Concerts in Shanghai. The concert hall and stage are very small in Shanghai so 2 concerts (one on Saturday and one on Sunday) were held. A few weeks ago I wrote that the Shanghai concerts are the lasts of Super Show II, but I was wrong. SJ are holding 2 more concerts in their Super Show II tour. Both are in April. One in Malaysia and the other in the Philippines.
How was the concert?

Many fancam videos can be found on youtube. I will highlight the "important" or "surprising" performances.
1) KISSES!!! Of course, Heechul kissing a man is nothing surprising, but he again expanded that list.
Siwon kissed Heechul! Not a fake kiss either. A cute little peck :).
Heechul kissed Henry during Heechul's Solo performance of Temptation of Sonata. A very typical Heechul kiss. I highly doubt that it's a real kiss. But I have a question about the up-loader's comments in the info section next to the video....... WTF? "Raise from the dead?" and "Siwon couldn't take their crap anymore"????? I do not get it.

2) Instead of SNSD's Gee, Heechul, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Donghae, and Ryeowook performed F(x)'s ~~Chu~~ (they performed Chu at TW as well).

3) Ryeowook's hair is pretty crazy.



4) of course, Hangeng, Kibum, and Kangin were absent. but Kangin's parts in VCR's were not cut out. All of Hangeng's parts except for 3-4 sec in Intro and Sorry Sorry VCR were cut out. Kibum...... I don't think he's in any of them ever. Of course, Heechul opened Sorry Sorry Answer by himself (he should open it with Hangeng), a huge contrast when compared to the interaction between Donghae and Leeteuk right after.

5) Kyuhyun's solo, 原谅我 aka Forgive Me, was amazing as usual! This is old news, but I've never written about it. Some people say that Kyuhyun decided to sing Forgive Me after his comment on his CY world about Hangeng. But honestly, I don't believe in any of that. If it is true, then Kyuhyun learned the song in like 3 days, which is impossible considering his Chinese is not that great yet.


6) Kyuhyun was very cute. At the end of the show, he said "小心猪流感" (watch out for Swine Flu), which made the entire audience laugh because Eunhyuk just recovered from swine flu.



7) of course, big WELCOME BACK to Eunhyuk!!!! He is better and back in action. Back at KTR today (March 8).



On the fans' side.....

Heechul and Eunhyuk were the most popular two at the Shanghai concert. I've read a few detailed accounts on the concerts. Some say it was great, some said that there weren't many people (not all the seats were filled). From what I read, SJM with Hangeng is experiencing some difficulty. Henry and ZM are not well like over all. If it wasn't for Hangeng, SJM would not have made it as big.
Many fans went to the airport, booked rooms at every single 5-star hotel around the concert hall (so they won't miss which one SJ stayed in), followed them everywhere, ran around in the hotel to find SJ's floor/room, etc.
(Pic of sea of sapphire blue is not from this concert...... I saw some from the Shanghai concert but forgot to save them and now I am too lazy to go find them again).

The day after Super Show II @ Shanghai, Hangeng made an appearance! This time, a public appearance. He went to a Sohu interview. No one knows when the interview will be broadcasted yet. But there are pics. I'm glad that he looks well :)
