Timeslip 90's Super Concert

NOTE: I APOLOGIZE THAT I AM SUCH A SHIT PHOTOGRAPHER.

I went to the 타임슬립 90's 슈퍼콘서트 (Timeslip 90's Super Concert) on December 30th over in Seoul last weekend~!!!


Pretty much I only went for Koyote, but I also got to see Lee Jaehoon, Clon, Kim Wonjoon, and Park Mikyung.

To be honest, I will say that the cost of the tickets was kinda outrageous for what we got, but whatever, I still got to see Koyote and had good seats in relation to the stage (like third row, four seats in from the aisle).


Kim Wonjoon performed first and came out looking like a hot mess. For real, who dressed him? This caused me some stress as I then started worrying about what the heck Koyote would look like. Anyway... Though, I'm not a fan, I can still say that he was pretty good. He did "Show," which is one of the few songs I knew from him.

Koyote came out second, and it was too soon. Because a part of me was like okay, so saw my faves, I can leave now~



Shin Ji was injured (she had something wrong with her ankle) and came out in a wheelchair. You could tell she was in a lot of pain, but she powered through the whole set. She really gave it her all. Nothing but respect for my president.













What did Koyote perform? They first came out with "실연." Then they did "Passion" and "파란." They also did "만남" and "비몽" before finishing up with "순정."

I hate that I didn't dance. Like I know most of Koyote's dance moves... Should have broke them out.

My boy Jongmin was perfect. So adorable. So handsome. Why did he seem so tiny tho? I did not get enough Jongmin... I could have stared at him for hours.











Koyote as a whole is beyond perfect. I feel so blessed that I got to see them. FINALLY.

Lee Jaehoon was the third to perform. Like Kim Wonjoon, he was dressed atrociously. Why??? Even though he was dressed like a turd, Jaehoon was still so hot. Mmm.






During his first ment, for some reason, he like literally spoke to me. wtf. He was like, "Hi. Hello." And then he asked if I brought him presents confused. wtf. I was like, internally, "Don't talk to me. Don't make me feel like an idiot!!!" :O

He did a good assortment of songs, including my personal faves "슬퍼지려 하기전에" and "작은 기다림." But he didn't do "애상," which still has me bummed, TBH.

Apparently, Yuri showed up on the second night of the concert. SMH. I knew I should have got tickets for the second night.

Then it was Clon's turn. DJ Koo came out with some back up dancers and danced to some Clon songs. After all the dancing that's when Kang Wonrae joined him on stage.


Like with Clon, you know it's gonna be good, because Clon only has jams.

While they were up there, I kept thinking are they going to do THE jam, though? And they did. We got "쿵따리 샤바라!"

Park Mikyung was the last act. Like Kim Wonjoon, I can't really say that I'm a fan, but she was also pretty good. She sang "이유같지 않은 이유" and "이브의 경고," which are both jams.

Overall, it was a good show. Though they are all getting up there and some would argue that they're past their primes, everyone did a great job. They're all such consummate performers. Not one regret shelling out the big money for the experience.

It's really unfortunate that my first time seeing Koyote involved Shin Ji being hurt. That makes me really sad. I want my queen to always be happy and healthy ;A;

My 90s Kpop fan cred so far:
  • 1. Saw g.o.d in concert on November 9th, 2014 back in Newark, NJ~
  • 2. On October 28th, I went to NRG's 20th anniversary fan meeting and got to met the boys.
  • 3. On November 26th, I went to NRG's fan sign and got to met the boys yet again!
  • 4. And now, I can say I went to my first 90s concert and finally got to see Koyote!
  • 5. ??? What's gonna happen in 2018 ???
