I was 15 at the time, couldn't go (plus I had like no money at all to fly across the nation)

I apologize if I sounded rude, I guess I was a bit pissy over the artist list changes and waiting for the final one.



wow O: that extended stage will be love <3

Just wondering if anyone is planning on staying at the Ramada Wilshire Center in LA for the weekend of the concert??
Or if you can tell me about the area?
I want to stay near Koreatown but without paying probably much over 110$ per night.
Thanks!

i got pool circle e tickets are they good?
like would i be able to see more than one person the whole time =[

oh yeah some of us on lj are staying there and its like a little over 100 a night I think. Its in Koreatown and thats all I know lol

oh thats cool
what site is that exactly?

Yea, i wanted to stay there with my sister but im going to the concert alone.
So i wanted to see if anyone here was stayin there for that night so maybe i could go with them, so im not alone
lol

how bad/good are side seats? ><
i have 2nd gb seats , but they're on the side.
pros/cons? =D
i was hoping for center seats,
BUT THOSE ARE SUPPPPERRRRRRRR HARD TO GET A HOLD OF!
eeep! :| hmm, does anyone have a picture they took at the concert from their seat who sat on the side of the gb boxes? xD

btw: did the last announment say when the next annoucement is? [x

edit: do they walk around the entire stage alot? ><
im hoping there will be at least a couple of seconds where they're completely facing me xD <3

ahh we're on completely opposite sides!


oh wow! we're kind of close depending on where you're sitting

i'm in Section A row 5

http://community.livejournal.com/dbsg_kmf/

oh so you and your sister would be staying together in the hotel but you would go to the concert by yourself? Well you could probably go with us to the concert.

so WG arent coming anymore?
im confusedd,
how come?

and one more ^_~
khype is releasing one final list due to the change right?

Thanks for the link! I'll deffinatly check it out!
Also, does it matter if im like a huge Super Junior Fan and only know like 2 DBSK songs that i like?? lol

Hey guys... Just a few thoughts went through my head just now about the artist change and the broadcasting partner change from MBC to SBS since its still bothering me that WG isn't attending T_T. Please don't bash me ;[...

Do you guys think the change happened because of the little tension between SM entertainment and MBC? Because what I'm beginning to think is that Koreatimes had to take a risk on changing the broadcasting partner in order to keep DBSK (and all the other SM artists) on the list... therefore they switched from MBC to SBS which caused to lose WG and Hyori. But since Koreatimes is pretty aware on how big DBSK is... they decided to take the risk of losing WG and Hyori and change the broadcasting channels.

what do you guys think ;x?

^ now that you mentioned it, that could maybe be the reason. but who knows :/
i don't want to start up anything. lol
but i wonder why they had changed from MBC to KBS too.
it had something to do with MBC schedule, you can check the first post of the thread. KHYPE posted up Korea Time's announcement.

yea, supposedly there will be another list because of this change

haha I don't think that would be a problem because we also want to support SuJu too. I love both SuJu and DBSK but since its a DBSK mainly fans just be aware most of us will be all dressed up for them haha

haha no problem!
I guess ill just stand out wearing blue!
& I plan on making a t-shirt


But i deffinatly do like their song "O" and "Purple Line"
They are quite the hotties

very cool! I hope you join us then. I think the more people the more fun

edit: oh and thats great because I think its very likely one or both of those songs would be played, at least I hope hehe

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo Wondergirls...... why why why.
damnit. I really wanted to do the tell me dance and the ee babo hwangjini
dance.

damnit.... this year is gonna not be so exciting. i'm only going because
the boyfriend wants to see DBSK. yes my boyfriend is obsessed with DBSK.
idiot even paid a whole lot for tickets too. omg nooooo






I just wanna add my little comment to this.

DON'T KILL Me. BUt SINCE WONDERGIRLS (SUNYE AND SOHEE HOSTS MUSICCORE)
AND SO DOES A BIG BANG MEMBER (TOP)

I WONDER IF THIS WILL AFFECT BIG BANG TOO. I REALLY WANT TO SEE THEM..... BUT SINCE WONDERGIRLS
DROPPED BECAUSE OF MBC I WONDER IF BIG BANG WOULD NOT COME AS WELL BECAUSE OF THE CONNECTION
WITH MBC

DON'T THROW ROCKS BUT I'M JUST STATING SOME OBSERVATIONS.


AND SHEESH TICKETS PRICES ARE GOING UP EVERYDAY.
IS IT REALLY WORTH IT..... BUT I WOULDN'T BLAME THE SELLERS
HECK THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO DO BUSINESS.

AND THAT COMMENT ABOUT WONDERGIRLS AND THE JYP CONCERT.


I CAN'T REALLY STAND THAT GORILLA ON SCREEN WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
I WOULD ENDURE 1 HOUR OF TORTURE. I LIKE WONDERGIRLS BUT IT AIN'T
WORTH IT.

EWWW. GIVE ME BACK MY WONDERGIRLS.

to make it fair, i'll paint dye my hair red [for heechul] and paint my face blue [for suju] and wear a red shirt. XD


i agree, i wanted to see them as welllsies.

i was also thinking that mbc and sm conflicts had something to do with it

and they probably thought itd be better to keep dbsk and suju over wg and hyori

not to mention snsd under sm as well...


this might not be what really happened but the thought crossed my mind a few times as well when they first announced the change

Haha
That sounds quite fair to me.

Mmmhm, that's definitely possible.
But wait, I have a question.
How is WG and Hyori "connected" with MBC, since MBC isn't like a producing company or anything like SM and JYP right?!

And does every big producing company-like YG- always send in at least one of their artists to HB to sort of represent their company?

Ahh!

=D I am SO going to make a shirt, too!
Any suggestions? How are you doing yours?
HUGE SuJu fan here. Let's say... I'm probably
the #1 Indian SJ fan.

The DBSK boys are my second loves.
Soo hot, for sure.

=]]]


----
WOO! This thread is so much fun.
Okay, I have a relevant question this time.
Is there a spot very near the Bowl where
parents can drop off / pick us up? Is it
going to be hard for the parents to do that
when the concert's over? How's that going to work... =]]

MAN I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO HYORI LEE AND WONDER GIRLS!
Sorry But SNSD just doesn't make it up!
I don't like them at all sorry for the fans but its just my point cuz i was totally looking forward to WG
but DBSK AND SUJU MAKES UP ALL THEY'RE BEST!!
WELL AS LONG AS DBSK is still going Im super HAPPY! lol
Just that I wasn't expecting snsd to come cuz iono lol srry fans just my opinion

Well u can be their #1 Indian fan, ill be their #1 Caucasian fan!! haha!
I am a HUGE Fan, and that doesent even begin to describe my love for them!

--
For the shirt, since i know like nothing about photoshop, im trying to find someone to make a design for me

Well i want it to say "Hollywood Bowl 2008" on the front with a pic of suju
and on the back i want it to have something about their international fanpage sjfullhouse.net
I love that site and i want to show they have international fans everywhere, who rock! lol
I want something special to help remember the day.
--

Any tips on how to wave a glowstick, balloon, record with a camera and scream loudly and not freak out, simotaniously??
I hope that made sense. lol

If any SNSD fans are wondering, we're trying to order some of their official pink balloons from korea, and we're talking about meeting up, and doing more t-shirts like we were suppose to wear for PC, join us :

http://soshified.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2982

YAY snsd is coming :] i love their songs
but wonder girls is not awww
soo their gonna announce one more list??

The artist list is so good >_<
Too bad I can't go I WANT TO SEE DBSK!
Well I can go but I have no one to go withh..
I don't want to yell and scream by myself XD

To all of you who are going HAVE FUN!

^ you should go anyways. there are other people going by themselves

i'll be going by myself too :]

someone mentioned that Korea Times had the artist list posted up at the site?

I don't see it. :X

OOHHHHH!!! i want to go sooooo baddllyyy.
ever since tvxq was announced i've been looking for tickets 24/7. ugh even dreamed about it last night >.<!!!
but it's so hardd because i'm not made out of money!
if any of you guys find extra garden/first few rows of terrace tickets for a good price PLEASE PLEASE let me know!!!

on the other hand...

kinda sad wonder girls isn't going. i don't really follow them, but i was looking forward to see them perform live. =/ oh welll.....

yay super junior - t! woohoo! better if it was all of them but sj-t is good enough!

p.s. i hope the last list of artists is no one good so ppl will give up their tickets. AH! DON'T JUMP ME!!!! *runs and hides*

Snsd wasn't suppose to make up for the removal of wonder girls/lee hyori anyways
That's why they're announcing 1-2 more artists to make up for them.
and hopefully they do get good artists, because i was anticipating for Wonder Girls
The 1-2 artists being released is most likely going to be for the younger generation since they took 2 young ones out.
also, it seems that the PC performers can also attend HB (aka snsd)

I have a question for those who attended HB in the previous years, how is the ABCD organized in the terrace seat section? Like, which one's closer to the stage in the box? And are the closer seats still facing towards the stage, or away from the stage towards the table? I think I read that the pool, garden and terrace seats have tables~

^ Pool circle seats have tables? O_O Really?

no, Pool Circle don't have tables

since there's one or two more on the list hopefullies it's ft island and big bang=]

^^ do we have a date of when the final announcement going to be? the thread jump so fast so im not sur eif it's posted..

I wanted WG to go so badly. :/
I was going to go to PC for them, but then SNSD sort of replaced them.
Then they aren't coming to HB and SNSD is coming instead. *pouts*
SNSD is chill and all, but I'm not a huge fan. *sighs*

Omg. If F.T and SS501 came, that would make my year. *swoons*

Pool Circle had tables 4 years ago but has not had since!!! Now its just rows of folding chairs tied together
Ever since the WG and Hyori cancellation and the mess that happened with the Peace concert I keep checking the front page of this thread several times a day just to make sure DBSK is still on the list-- Everytime I check my heart skips. Just thinking of the possibility makes me cry ;____;

SERIOUSLY

#1 Mexican American (hispanic)
fan HAAHAH i love them so much although i wish i could have a half DBSk and SUJu shirt but that aint going to happen i m going to so wear red but with a blue ribbon on my arm representing my SUJu love. hmm i need tips on recording too since i never done it before for a concert.

anyone ever sat in terrace box with 6 seats??? are there 3 seats in front and 3 seats in the back or is it 2 seats each like regular terrace box with 4 seats

Dropping off won't be a problem (but you should be dropped off at the bottom and NOT drive up the hill to the main bowl area.)

Picking up is a different story. There are HUNDREDS of cars coming out, so they change traffic so that it's all going ONE WAY (OUT). I think it's best to search for an area when your parents drop you off that is like a few blocks away. You'll have to find a small side street because you can't park your car on Highland.

Hope that helps~!

And there has been NO ANNOUNCEMENT about when the final artist will be released. We will update this thread (on the topic part) so that you know, or you can check up on khype.com.

Thanks!

I'm thinking that they moved TV stations due to SM artists too, but who knows whether it was MBC not wanting SM artists on their variety entertaiment programs or SM not wanting to be on MBC.

If WG had to drop out due to conflict of schedule with MBC, most likely, SBS wants to air the Hollywood Bowl show at a time that is either opposite or overlaps the Music Core time of Saturday 3:30pm-ish. As for Hyori, I don't know why it would affect her since her show right now is with SBS and the other show she was in talks to be a regular on is on KBS at nights... unless her cable show airs opposite the timeslot for Hollywood Bowl show.

WOOHOOOW SOSHI COMIN TO HB ALONG WITH DBSK AND SUJU T!!!!
SM TOWN RULES!!!!

Oh? So if you have an account, but don't have an American credit card, you can use your (Canadian) credit card anyway?
(this is in regards to ordering tickets online)

WG AND HYORI GONE~!? AHHHH. oh well .
brian mc-ing again YAY!!!!!

CHANGES IN KOREAN MUSIC FESTIVAL
The official broadcasting partner for this year’s concert has been changed from MBC to SBS, another major network in Korea. It was a friendly move for everyone, and I strongly believe that the change will only bring us positive one.

Due to the change in broadcasting partner, however, we had to make a minor adjustment in terms of the artist lineup, and feel awfully sorry and regretful to inform you that two artists, Lee Hyo Ri and Wonder Girls, who we initially announced will not make it for the show this year.

Lee Hyo Ri was scheduled to take a MC role this year (and possibly perform). Her role is being replaced by Ock Joo Hyun, and she will be MC’ing the show along with Brian from Fly To The Sky. Wonder Girls were excited to come and perform at the Bowl, but, because of their live show schedule with MBC, they had to retreat from the inital commitment. Please accept our sincere apology for this.

Regardless of their abscence, our effort to build the best possible show will continue. We are pleased to announce that another idol star, Sohn Ho Young from the g.o.d. and So Nyo Shi Dae (SNSD) will join and perform at the Bowl. It was supposed to be the last addition, but, due to the recent change, we plan to add 1~2 more artist(s) and announce it within the next several days.

As the host of the largest Korean concert outside of Korea, we are proud to present the artist lineup for the 2008 Korean Music Festival at Hollywood Bowl.

Performing for OLD: Shin Joong Hyun, Tae Jin Ah, Yoon Hyung Joo, Kim Se Hwan, Choi Baek Ho, Jung Hoon Hee
Performing for YOUNG: Dong Bang Shin Gi(TVXQ), Super Juior-T, Sohn Ho Young, So Nyo Shi Dae(SNSD), Fly To The Sky, SG Wannabe, Ock Joo Hyun, Eru (1~2 artist TBD)
MC: Brian & Ock Joo Hyun

Finally, our LA and OC office are going to open for the public between 9:00am and noon on every Saturday until the event date. Purchasing and pickup service is available at the LA office while OC office only opens for the pickup service. Thank you for your support.
