"My Report

Just got myself together after dreamy 1 week. Today Back to work and just got home. Yes. the reality came to me again.

I already wrote long report in Korean, won't be easy but will try to translate it in English here. I know it will be kinda awkward with my broken English (oh well In Korean it was quite good ) I just want to leave something in English, and share my feeling and emotions with all my dear fellow Mika fans here...

I remember the moment when I first ever had Mika's very first gig in Seoul. At that time I was just 1 month fan who just started to like his music. Didn't know much about him, nor how he performs on stage. After that concert, I thought like, That musician on that stage I just met on that night in small theatre is, just once-a-lifetime true musician who can share his energy and love with all audience there. And thought, I would do everything I can do, to see that musician just once per year in Korea. And thought, how amazing it would be, if this treasure artist could perform in The Olympic gymnastics stadium, the biggest indoor concert hall in Korea? That venue is only ever allowed to top place popstars - Beyonce, Muse, Maroon 5, only those three. And only Top-Class Kpop stars , like SNSD, DBSK can fill up the venue. so at that time 2009, Mika playing there was just like a
dreamworld thing to me.

2013, just after 4 years after that unforgettable moment, my dream just come true, in a way that couldn't be more successful than this.

Actually I was a bit worried when first heard he's going to play in that dream venue. It was a music festival, and people said this years musician line-up of that festival is best ever. When Mika plays on that arena, Jazz legend Ramsey Lewis and Philip Bailey was set to play in Main outdoor stage and they were called 'true headliner' on that Jazz festival. And just few miles from that venue, at the same day, same time, Jason Mraz, undoubtly the most beloved popstar in Korea plays in another outdoor place. So I was quiet a bit worried, cuz I didn't want to show empty spaces to my favorite musician whom I loved more than I can say. So awkwardly, during other artists play there, sometimes I looked back to find out how many empty seats are filled. I was like a Fool...honestly... It was just a Big-Match day for musicians. And you know what? All Press said on their news said,
Our Mika was the Final winner on that crazy day.

After the former band played, Ppl came into the venue like a surge, from every opened gate. 3rd floor seats were filled like swept by crowds flood. On twitter, I got a message that no one should get out of the dome to go toilet or drink, cuz that venue is already out of capacity because of Mika, if go out the securities won't let them in. Securities all over that festival park were urgently gathered into the dome , talking into their radio, warn each other that too many people are rushing into the venue to see Mika. Oh my gosh, I was so nervous, and filled with so much emotions to see and hear that. It was not my gig, but I was awkwardly like that. you know what, on that night, I realised from whole body that my lifetime favorite musician became the top-class popstar who can fill this dream venue in whole tension. Who dare grumbled he's playing in festival not his own gig? God, I could hear that people around me says like they had never seen this arena THAT FULL, being wowed and stunned, looking around every corner of this huge dome arena.

The gig was like, looking up my long time friend finally become greatest star in the world. It was just surreal. On twitter timeline, messages like 'oh sh*t this huge dome is shaking all over!' or 'is Mika kind of leader of some crazy new religious group?' were retweeted. 12,000 ppl all seem to know all of his songs. All were crazily reacted on his every gestures, talks, and small movements, like Mika was the God who can save them from their reality. When I hear 12,000 people singing lines of Stardust it was like a heaven it was
sublime. When I jumped and scream with whole those ppl, from standing and seat of 3rd floor everyone 'We are not what you think you are', I thought I could die like this.

On that day, I could realize again that why I started to addict to this magical guy. And why this man is exceptional only one in this world. I was so proud to see him become one of most loved western popstar in my home country. So proud to see many Korean celebs visit this dome to just see Mika. It is truly an honor and I'm so lucky to see this career in small theatre and to this. Lifetime unforgettable moment.

I cried a bit when he sang 'Seoul, when will I see you again' and end the song Stardust. Yes.. as he said, maybe I have to wait for countless days to see him again here, maybe he never visit here again, 8,000 km from his home. Because I know I only could see him just once a year if I'm lucky enough, every moment of his Seoul concert is precious ever in my life. My lifetime moment, wont forget that as long as I live.

PS : We didn't prepare any surprise this time. It was a festival so on that day Mika was not only for all Mika addicted crowds, but for more broad music fans. We know that we don't need to show up something to help him remember us living in tiny corner of the world any more, we don't need to spread paper plane & toilet paper vids to
introduce Mika to random ppl on internet forums. I didn't ask any autograph to him this time. I don't need to be greedy any more. I was just happy and full of heart to only concentrate on him and his music on that day..

Sorry for insanely long report full of all personal thoughts. If just several people reads this one-hour token report, I'll be so happy with that I'm so proud to see my English that improved enough to be able to write this long report in English after 4 years in MFC world."
