sounds promising. the korea times won't let us down. so stop asking so much.

thanks khype for the latest info (:


i am SUPER excited for hollywood bowl!

Um, is it true that Side/ramp seats are going to be available for sale in mid-april?

OMG....i really really want to go. I mean it's only about five to ten cities away from where i live and perhaps then i could've earn enough money to go. so sad. i have no idea of how to get there. may seem so close but actually very far. oh well. must practice driving first. anyways, how much does the ticket cost for the peace concert?

umm about this pre concert wat is it o.o is it like rehearsal??

Yep you get to see some artists rehears on stage ;DD
I missed it because I went shopping T_T

PRE CONCERT IS MAINLY THE ACTIVITIES, THAT THE SPONSORS OR BOOTHS HAVE BEFORE THE CONCERT OUTSIDE THE BOWL IN THE WALKWAY.

NOT THE REHEARSAL.

ooh okay, march. can't wait! i wanna know who's going this year~~

Really? I herd people were able to see them rehearse ;x..
They even posted videos of some of the rehearsals..

Maybe it was connections haha ;x

Um, is it true that Side/ramp seats are going to be available for sale in mid-april?



.........................

12 "top notch" hmm I wonder what they mean by that-- i hope its not lip service because well I realllllllly really want 1 group that is the toppest notch to be there ^^ so exciting! I cannot wait for that dang artist list!!

according to the ANNOUCEMENT UPDATE the person said they have Twelve Top notch artists coming.

i was thinking 'and what's your opinion on TOP knotch? Super Junior came last year and Boa and Big Bang...so OBVIOUSLY Super Junior and Big Bang might not come THIS year. though who's to say about big bang and BoA?

and HELLO?? i'm REALLY clinging to her words when she's saying top notch artists. First name that comes to mind?
DBSK!!!! if they aren't coming, (which most likely they won't.) i'm not going.

i bought a side box and they told me that it was the last one. how is there suppose to be extras???

lol, i have no idea.. i saw that is was in a post somewhere. so iono. but yeah, thanks for answering.

Wow, 12 top notch artists? I wonder who.. -whispers-ftislandftislandftisland-
hahah! but I don't wanna get my hopes up! D:

If they announce ft island on march 9th then i'll be thinking it's fate because thats my birthday

You never know. I remember Se7en came for 2 years in a row. Korea Times usually gets at least 5 very popular artists to perform at HB :D

Oh my golli... 12 top-notch???
What the heck is that supposed to mean??
Very very.. clever... hmm...
But oh well, i'm sure they're gonna be great performers anyhow.
And omg.. if Shinhwa or SGWannabe...
Awesomeness..
Anyways... it'll be fun either way.

um, anyone has information on rehearsals?
from past years, what were the usual dates and times? and could fans watch?


Top notch?
so excited!

Rehearsals cannot be seen by the public. Its closed to the public and they won't let anyone in. Unless you have connections you can't see the rehearsals.

020408 soompi meet mini-update ^^

http://www.soompi.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=192303

woohoo thanks for the update. i hope when they say 12 top-notch artist its the ones that im hoping for! i really liked last yearss line up, but we all know that its not likely T_T.

12 top notched artists ey?
Big Bang, SNSD, and DBSK must be among those twelve >:]
I hope this isn't all just hype.
Seriously, I really expect good artists Korea Times! Ahh.

^ I know SNSD is popular and all but, TOP NOTCH in my opinion would be like... BoA or DBSK.
WG, FT, SNSD, BB, as much as i love 2/4 of those groups, they're still considered rookies, no matter how popular.

I'm still hoping for Suju, if not Suju, DBSK !!!!

I was also talking to a friend, and if WG comes, i really think JYP will come with them.
JYP is like....considered the soul of R&B and etc right?

same here if dbsk isn't coming their is seriously no point in going. 12 top aritists? But do you think the same artist that go to the peace concert will come to the HB? for example BOA is coming to the peace concert so will she come to the HB?

what kind of activities?? do u think there will be a signature section XDD

well u dont know if these people are coming or not u are not the person who made the list no? so we will find out in march. plus boa OBVIOUSLY not comin because she flying to japan in the 16 i heard and then for big bang and suju theres chances of them comin or not i heard suju comes all the times so well we just hav to wait

no signature session. nothing of that sort.

rehearsals...i snuck in and saw big bang rehearse from the wayyyy back. then i got kicked out.


pre-concert stuff is when they pass out the korean flags, the free packs of kimchi, the rice drinks, the free little bags, the little balloon drum things, and those unknown korean-american bands.



MIGHT I ADD ONCE MORE:

WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL MARCH. SO PLEASE, SAVE YOUR POSTS AND JUST SPREAD THE WORD.
WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL MARCH.
iz DBSK KUMMIN?!
WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL MARCH.
WUT ABOUTT SUJU?!
WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL MARCH.
IZ THERE A GUD CHANCE THAT BIG BANG'S GUNNA COME?1
WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL MARCH.



I hope i got that hammered into everyone's heads.

last year they gave out some green glowstick things (:
i still have mine xD
and then they gave out clappers, im not sure what else was there,
i wasn't there too early before the concert.

OMG, im so excitedddddddddddddddd!
im positive korea times will not let us down (:
they are smart enough to pick good artists,
and no matter who comes, HB is always a blast!
so no worries, your not wasting your time or money

it's almost march
that means we can almost get our tickets ! ^^
im still crossing my fingers for big bang to come [:
now that hb is getting closer and closer, i have a feeling that they are comming xD
maybe its just my want for them to come.
but i have this feeling. LOL. i know its not reliable, but it's my hope, and if they come,
it'll totally make my whole year<3

oh free stuff~~~ ah ty for the info and i already kno about the artist list i was tryin to put it into pplz head as well= = stil tryin on my friends XD wonder if i can realli HAMMER it in their head haha no im jk XD

as far as i know, rehearsals weren't open to the public last year.
but some people might've been lucky and snuck in or find some way to see the rehearsal ebfore the concert.
i remember last year, i heard big bang rehearsing last year while i was waiting outside for the HB gates/door (whatever you wanna call them) but i didn't get to see them cuz the gates were so high up. some people got lucky though cuz they were standing somewhere in the higher area and looked down to see the artists rehearsing.

I don't think Shinhwa's going to be there since Eric & Dongwan are off to the army in March. But maybe other members like Minwoo & Hyesung? I really wish they have a confirmed artist list instead of keeping us waiting. >_<

thanks

now i know not to let that day be open for stalking, or anything of that nature... TT____TT

AH~ I'll go to LA at that time

and

Super Junior

I really wanna see them there!!!

i was wondering...if u get pool tickets are u allowed to like get out of our seat and like stand and walk around? cuz i guess i'm imagining it like a huge moob...but it seems like u have like actual seating??

kinda confused..o.0

Wow 12 top notch
i am picturing DBSK, SUJU and BOA
Epik High and Se7en Wonder girls and hopefully Big Bang
I want them to come!

se7en came 2-3 times in a row to HB, so there's still hope of anything

i don't know what they're gonna do this year, but last year the security guards wee so strict.
pool circle people weren't allowed to leave their seats, they could stand up, but not walk up towards the stage and stuff.
but towards the end of the concert, pool circle people ran up to the stage and the guards didn't do anything, i guess they didn't care much at that time since the concert was ending..? lol
i was in pool circle last year and was a little disappointed that i could leave my seat until towards the end, so this year i went for the next best thing, which is the garden box.

hopefully this HB will top last year's experience -- and that's pretty hard to do since there were alot of great artists last year (Big bang<3) =)

8eight i think is a fairly new group. theyve appeared on KBS Music Bank. its like rapping and singing. theyre good. i like them


i heard that big bang is doing a concert before HB in CALI but not come to the HB and super junior has this thing during the concert so theyre staying in korea to do that...wonder girls, SNSD, and i think ft island are 100% coming. maybe for ft. but i heard that wonder girls and SNSD are big YES.

I actually want to go SO BAD.
But my parents won't let me. LAME.

i think the thing people supposedly heard about big bang being in CALI before HB was the "peace concert"~ it's been said that big bang isn't going to the peace (someone called and asked), and WG is on the peace concert list. but gahhh i guess all we can do is wait for the HB list. we never know!

so like do the same rules apply for the garden?? like are u allowed to stand and like walk closer if u were like in the back of the section?

disregard

Deleted due to a distrubing matter

There'd sorta be no point to giving you a seat in the back if you were able to walk to the front lol...

yea i kno big bang said they aint comin to peace concert so im all their fan girls are hoping they are going to hb. is there any chances of csjh going? ahh my patiences is not wit me XD i hav to wait until MARCCCH.

did they say WHEN IN march they are going to release the list?

i heard it was mid march. no exact date though.

ohh top of page

it's going to be released march. does it matter when in march? hold your ponies. the wait will be worthwhile. anymore questions on hb? i'll be happy to answer them.


i remember the first one like it was just yesterday...

oooooo
So they already have 12 performers!

I hope whoever broadcasts this concert shows the whole thing...
Unlike last year.. when they cut out like half of the concert...
Although I heard MBC America showed the whole thing, I couldn't watch NOR download it so that was depressing D:

ahhhh im a little bit nervous HAHA

after seeing that the peace concert is actually a REAL OFFICIAL concert im worried that a few of those artists wont come back for hb since they're only a month away from each other T______T

wow now that i think about it there's a lot of korean activities going on over here huh?

eep well i guess we wont know until march >____<

12 top-notch locked artists eh? why cant they tell us when they already know?! (well i know the answer to that but im just impatient haha)

102 days until hb! AND IM JUST ASSUMING THAT THE ARTIST LIST WILL BE RELEASED MID-MARCH (i really dunno when exactly): in 40 days! [03/16]

i just feel better if i make a rough countdown :XX

hey guys, i remembered when i called korea times last month, a lady picked up the phone and had to talk to my friend instead because she didn't know english. my friend asked her if it was okay if i dropped by the office the day before hb to pick up my ticket and she said it was fine. she said she'd hold my ticket there. i'm hearing from everyone that you can only pick it up around march/april or the day of the concert at willcall. so yeah i'm freakin confused!!

^ yes i called and they said around march but i think u can get it whenever o.o but i dont know about bnefore the concert
