● A Contingent of 300-400 touts
As if it was a show of Junjin’s popularity, the appearance of a large group of touts caught everyone’s attention. Making up at least a 300-400-strong contingent, these were mostly ahjosshis over 35, who gathered at the concert venue on the morning of the concert. What’s more, unlike in Korea where touts sell tickets covertly, the touts in Shanghai were openly peddling their tickets.
● The Concert and Sweet Potatoes
Besides the touts, the street hawkers selling sweet potatoes formed another large contigent.. In Korea, one would mostly see the street hawkers selling drinks and kimbabs near concert venues, but in China, sweet potatoes are the norm instead. It was an unique situation with the combination of the loud calls of the touts and the sweet taste of the sweet potatoes.
● Once A Shinhwa Fan, Always A Shinhwa Fan
At the concert, many fans held up placards with Junjin’s name written in English, and all were dressed in orange and carrying orange lightsticks, all symbolic of Shinhwa. Although it’s Junjin’s solo activity, thy continue to show unwavering support for Shinhwa. That is why when Eric appeared on the screen in one of the videos, the fans all cheered loudly. Junjin is well aware of their thoughts, and shared the latest news about the other members with the fans.
● Please Perform “Micheosseo” and “Tell Me”
The Chinese fans who attended the concert mostly get in touch with his latest updates via the Internet, and they are well aware that he has performed Son Dambi’s “Michesseo” on a show. Thus, fans cheered loudly and requested him to perform the dance, and subsequently “Tell Me” as well. Junjin said, “Thanks to the Internet, just one or two days after my programmes show in Korea, subtitled versions would be all over the Chinese fansites.”
● During Charlie Park’s Performance, Fans’ Cheers of “Abonim! Abonim!”
Among Junjin’s entourage who came to Shanghai, his father Charlie Park is the most well-known. Everytime he appeared, the Chinese fans would cheer as well. With regards to this, a staff member from the management company said, “As the fans probably see Junjin as their boyfriend, they might see his father Charlie Park as their future father-in-law too.” As if to support his theory, many female fans cheered “Abonim!” when Charlie Park appeared as a special guest.
