With the March holidays approaching, I’m sure many would like to catch up on your reality/variety shows, but probably not sure which to watch. Well, don’t worry we got you covered! We have listed 5 variety and reality shows that we are sure you would enjoy!

1) 1 Night, 2 Days, Season 3

There ought to be a reason why this popular variety show has existed for 10 years! It is that good! If you need a good laugh, you will not be disappointed. I personally like Season 3 the best. It is nice to see the development of the 6 cast members’ friendship and camaraderie.

Episodes to begin with: I highly recommend starting from the first episode and moving on from there as you will be able to see the dynamic that is formed over time. But if you insist, I recommend – The Manly Trip (Ep 9 & 10), The Quit Smoking Project (Ep 15 & 16), Summer Vacation to Balri (Ep 82 & 83).

2) Knowing Brothers

If you have not started on this show, you need to start now! They had a few set changes at the beginning before they decide to stick with the school concept. This talk show is set in a classroom, where each episode, “transfer” students (aka guests) come and appeal themselves to their “new classmates”. Because of this classroom setting, everyone is supposed to talk informally (and casually) with each other. The ruthless verbal attacks between each cast members are the funniest part of the show!

Episodes to begin with: I have to admit, some episodes are more entertaining than others, I recommend starting with episodes with your favorites as guests. Then slowly moving on to the next episodes. To start, I would recommend, Ep 18 (Eun Jiwon, Noel), 31 (Seo In Young, Jessi, Kim Jong Min), 46 (Infinite), 64 (Kang Ye Won, Han Chae Ah).

3) Return of Superman

What could be cuter than seeing a show filled with kids? A show filled with cute kids and struggling fathers taking care of them! Which is what this show is all about! The hilarious antics of the toddlers paired with the (clueless) fathers who try their best to provide for their kid, makes this show really heart-warming and pretty adorable.

Episodes to begin with: Honestly, I’ve never missed an episode and I like all of the families equally from the bottom of my heart, butttt if I have to choose, I would recommend paying special attention to Haru (Ep 1 – 58), the Song triplets (Ep 34 – 116), Daebakie and his sisters (Ep 88 – present) and of course, the Lee twins (Ep 1 – present).

4) Unnies Slam Dunk, Season 2

From the person who only watched the girl-group making episodes in Season 1, I was pleasantly surprised when Season 2 would just be centered around recreating a girl group. It was, arguably, the most interesting and entertaining portion of Season 1. So I understand why they decided to steal Min Hyorin’s dream and make the whole Season 2 based on that.

And honestly, I am really enjoying it ! It has only 5 episodes so far, but I am starting to feel attached to them as a group and I love their group dynamic! I must say, the group dynamic is slightly better than Season 1’s! Even though the age group might seem larger (Somi is only 17 y/o say what!), I think the young ones really blend well with the “matured” ones.

Episodes to begin with: Well, there are only 5 episodes as of now so go and catch up!

5) Law of the Jungle

Scripted or not, the show is still really very entertaining! The different casts going on different islands proves to be refreshing as we see the interaction between idols, singers, actors and comedians all in a survivor-style show. It is pretty interesting to see the casts “raw” and trying all sorts of new (and honestly scary sometimes) activities – like catching a chicken, climbing trees, fishing for food, building a home, etc.

Episodes to begin with: I have not watched all the episodes but those that I watched, I really enjoyed! So go and watch episodes with your faves, it would not disappoint! I particularly like the Friends Special (Ep 146-153), The Woman Special (Ep 212-219), The Rising Stars of 2017 (Ep 247-255).

And that’s the list of variety/reality shows that I have enjoyed recently! If you have not started on any of these shows, go start on it soon! If you share the same sentiments as me, hi-5 sista! Now it’s time to cuddle up on a bed, and laugh and cry and laugh even more while watching these shows. You can thank me later 😉

ASTRO first meeting with Hong Kong fans

Astro-2

Hong Kong, 2017 – ASTRO made their first visit to Hong Kong on 3rd of March and they put up an amazing and memorable performance for fans who attended their first live show in Hong Kong. Before the start of the show, music videos of ASTRO were being played repeatedly on the big screens at the concert hall, causing all fans to be excited to meet the boys and anticipating the commencement of the concert.

ASTRO started off the concert with ‘Hide and Seek’ and ‘Puss in Boots’ and proceeded to greet the audience with Cantonese. Arohas then expressed their love for ASTRO by shouting ‘I love you’ (in Korean) to the members. The MC also then proceeded to teach the members how to say ‘I love you’ in Cantonese.

During the live show, there are numerous chances for fans to get up close to the members. In one of the game section, ASTRO members picked 6 fans from the crowd to play a game called ‘Guess the song name’. The fan who guessed the most number of songs correctly will be given a chance to take a polaroid photo with ASTRO.

In addition to their own hit songs, ASTRO also sang Jay chou’s 告白氣球 and TVXQ’s hug; surprise stages which they specially prepared for fans who came to see them.

Of course, Hong Kong Aroha also prepared something special for ASTRO. They prepared a birthday cake and sang a birthday song in Korean for the 4 members whose birthdays are in March. Also, when ASTRO performed ‘Fireworks’, the fans lighted up the whole concert hall beautifully with the light sticks they prepared. During the last song, ‘You & Me’, Aroha also raised banners that read ‘Let’s stay together forever’, showing their love and support for ASTRO.


首次來香港開演唱會的Astro,本月3號在旺角麥花臣舉行了一場令Aroha難忘的演出。演唱會未開始時,大螢幕一直播放著Astro四首人氣的歌曲MV為演唱會預熱,Aroha可謂未見偶像先興奮。

在開場歌hide and seek和puss in boots之後迎來了Astro的mnet。六子逐一用廣東話打招呼後,全場Aroha向Astro用韓語大聲說出我愛你,主持人再教Astro用廣東話說我愛你,令現場氣氛高脹!

Astro是次也有很多跟粉絲互動的環節,現場抽出六名粉絲上台跟他們玩猜歌名的遊戲。當中全是廣東話歌,比如張國榮的Monica,吳業坤的陽光點的歌,陳奕迅的浮誇還有張學友的頭髮亂了。猜出最多歌曲的粉絲更是可以跟Astro有一張拍立得的合照。

六子在唱完呼吸急促後更打趣道唱完真的會呼吸急促,令在場的觀眾都急不住笑。除了表演Astro自己大熱的歌曲外,Astro還準備了周杰倫的告白氣球還有東方神起的氣球,用心的為觀眾帶來驚喜。

當然,Astro的粉絲也很有準備,因為astro有四個成員的生日都在三月份,Aroha為Astro準備了生日蛋糕和韓語生日歌。還有在唱fireworks時亮起藍色或紫色的手拍燈應援,製造出一片燈海。最後一首歌YOU&ME時,Aroha都舉起了永遠一起吧的手幅,為演唱會帶來更圓滿的句號。
