-Show-
Korean Hip Hop Duo LEESSANG
successfully completed their first Asia Showcase in Malaysia, the final station
for the tour. The showcase started around 7:30PM and lasted for an hour long at
Kenanga Wholesale City Mall, Kuala Lumpur on 11 January 2014.
Gary and Gill kick started the show
with the first song of the night – Modesty is Difficult. Despite that it was an
all-seated-show, all the fans of LEESSANG stood up immediately to cheer and
sing along with them once the duo took up the stage. It was quite a surprise to
see majority of the fans singing along with the lyrics as most of LEESSANG’s
songs include rapping. The show then continued with them performing I Turned
Off the TV, You’re the Answer to a Guy Like Me and Woman Who Can’t Break Up,
Man Who Can’t Leave the Woman.
-Short break-
A VCR of Gill on Infinity Challenge
and Gary on Running Man was shown during the short break when the both left the
stage. Judging from the loud scream, we could tell that 80% of the crowd that
night was Monday Couple (Gary and Song Jihyo’s couple name on Running Man)
shippers.
-Q&A-
LEESSANG then reappeared on the
stage for a short Q&A session. One of the highlights of the night must be
when the question ‘who is your ideal girl?’ being asked. Gill answered Song Ji
Hyo without any hesitation and Gary answered Song Ji Hyo as well with a smile
on his face, making the Monday Couple fans gone wild again. Gary also praised
that Malaysian girls are so beautiful, in English. As for their New Year
resolution, Gill hoped that he could come back to Malaysia and perform for the
fans again while Gary wished for everyone’s happiness and he would like to come
back again together with the Running Man members.
-Games-
Six lucky fans were picked
beforehand to join LEESSANG on stage for the game session. The first game was
called Couple Game which Gary and Gill together with their partners will have
to stand on a piece of newspaper and fold it smaller and smaller as the game
goes on. Gill jokingly said ‘why does it have to be a man?’ because the two
fans chosen for the game were boys. The fanboys made all the girls jealous as
they received hugs and piggybacks from Gary and Gill during the game. Lastly,
Gary’s team defeated Gill’s team. The next game was Survival Game (musical
chair). The crowd literally went crazy when Gary sat on a fangirl’s laps and
let her hugged him from the back!
-Show-
Moving on to the show, LEESSANG
performed four hits: It’s a Laugh Behind Sadness, Ballerino, Gary and Gill and
Clown before the encore stage came on. Gary mentioned for the second time that
he would like to bring the Running Man members with him to come to Malaysia
again!
-Encore-
The duo changed into their LEESSANG
1st Asia Showcase t-shirts and wore their famous LEESSANG snapbacks for the
encore stage. Let Us Meet Right Now was definitely the most well-known song for
LEESANG Malaysian fans and the showcase officially ended with the song Rush.
