As with the end of year countdown, its always expected to have the Gayo DaeJuns (Song Festivals) take place days after each other for all the main broadcasting stations to show-off or outdo each other with performances.
There’s always the same performances with the same people on SBS, MBC and KBS shows that you sometimes fail to remember which performance they wore that particularly hideous outfit in, or which one made a fool out of so and so, and which show so and so made you want to puke, etc. And believe me, that has become a staple amongst the shows and the obvious favouritism and lack of creativity/originality is insurmountable on these shows, that not watching them isn’t really going to make a difference.
Not to mention the glitches that shouldn’t be made in terms of technical support… How many mics not working, bad camera work, bad timing or lack of synchronisation is there with these things, eh? You would think that with it being an annual thing there wouldn’t be so many mistakes. Think again.
And that’s why, our wonderful readers and trolls, we’re giving you an account of our thoughts on the worth watching mishaps, blunders and just plain EEEEWSIES (as in EEW, what the hell is going on? That’s gross!) in the end of year Gayo DaeJuns… Where Gayo sometimes means KAyo! (GO! Go! GO! away! in Hangul).
Biggest blunder (possibly of all time) SNSD and their over-exposure (in so many shapes and forms).
>(No need to insert any videos here for proof, go to YT and search for ANY performance!)<
Lady Gertrude in Shakespeare’s Hamlet said it best, when you try too hard to convince people of something, it most likely is not true….SNSD and SM “Thou Protesteth Too much” when it comes to claiming that your 9 demons have any talent. Where the hell are the “Supernatural” Brothers to get rid of the leeching, talentless, unbelievably un-sexy 9 demons of SM Entertainment? Opening the doors of the Devil (aka Lee Sooman) really did let out some horrible things unto the World. LOL. Every performance was full of mishaps and blunders that lack of time could never account to the hideousness of their performances of their songs and/or special collabs.
Let’s get on to business shall we?
SBS
2PM weren’t very good in their past lives, were they?
WooYoung face right there, was his (And most peoples) expression throughout the whole performance. Enough said.
G-Dragon gets emotional
Probably after watching Wooyoung suffer in the above.
Hes a sweet Hyung he is.
But we all know G-D has had his fair share of bad press (Plagiarism and indecency!) so he lays the blame on the oldest excuse in the book “I got something in my eye”. Smoke to be exact.
CL shocks
Aww, they’re like Lil’ Kim and Se7en!
While performing G-Ds track “The Leaders”, 2NE1 leader, CL, wore a leotard of some sort with her underwear sticking out at certain places and had peoples panties in a twist since shes under-age. On the other hand, I don’t know if its those monster heels shes got on, or if its the out-fit or the hair but don’t G-D look teeny?
Boys should stay boys
I’m all for boys performing girls songs and vice versa but there’s a fine line between paying tribute and gay-fantasies.
The drag has got to go. (I thought they were “manly manly men!”?)
I actually thought ShinDong was HyunA for his, SHINee and MBLAQs’ performance of 4Minutes “Muzik”. On the plus side, I thought Key and ShinDong really worked it, and well… MBLAQ boys got the dancing down. 
I don’t know what it is about Kwon that gets me in fits of laughter, that guy was made for the stage. 2PM/2AM/BEAST joint stage for Brown Eyed girls‘ “Sign” was good. They got those sleepy/dead looks down right, and of course a little Kwon diva moment in between.
I would have been fine with this performance if there was only less of GAH!ee. What was with that spasm in the end? Like a kick but then half way through her heart stopped beating too early and then, commence toppling.
And ofcourse…
Lil’ CL strikes again with her leaotard-ity!
CLs was the best rendition of this cross-dressing nightmare, hands down.
Mostly due to the fact that she IS G-Dragon, female.
Thats what got a reaction outta me from them liberal (Drag? Good!) SBS folks.
KBS
Taemins your Venus
He’s your fire, your desire~
Greek Goddess Taemin decided to go for a futuristic look with his Toga. Thats the only way I can make sense of this out-fit, I have no idea what else it could be but it sure as hell left an impression on me.
Gil goes hunting
But looks pimpalicious with the top hat and fur that he got as a trophy from his day hunting in the woods. Besides Gil owning everybody, he put on an awesome performance with teammate Gary and Jang Giha & The faces (Personally, one of my favourite bands)
Gorilla man lives his fantasy
Is that the ’sexy’ “Oh-mo-na”?
JYP decided to spice things up with a “sexy” dance performance with Son DamBi. But we all know it was just an excuse to perform female dance moves on stage.
KBS Gayo Daejun was probably the most versatile out of the three, seeing as it wasn’t as much of an Idol Fest as MBC and SBSs’ were.
Last and definitely the least….
MBC
CLEAR!
After School and Son DamBis performance of “When I grow up” certainly shocked me. I don’t know if Gahee was still hung up over performing “Heartbeat” the day before and that she, and apparently the rest of After School and DamBi, had to constantly pop their chests to regain composure, but what the hell was that?
Is Gahee really fluent in English? Cos’ by the sound of it, shes the worse of the lot.
JYP wants mini-mes!
Break a leg, pops!
Looks like JYP wants to re-live his youth through the 2PM boys (The sleazy hip thrusts, oh the sleazy hip thrusts!). DJ Jinyoung looking and sounding like a Cockatoo really had me distracted, especially with the ad libs (lol) and the pleather (not lol).
__________________________________________________________________________
I know there was probably a lot more to comment on with last years Song festivals but some performances took a lot to mentally block out (The ones that didn’t have “lol”s in them, just “Wtf?”s) and I would rather not re live them O_O(*cough*MBCs-horridly-cheesy-video-intros/attempts-at-creativity/reminder-of-why-their-variety-shows-are-failing*cough*). Plus, if I had to comment on everything disappointing I’d go on forever (Can somebody say Michael Jackson tributes? Where was the passion, where was the fire?).
So, which Gayo Daejun (No matter how exceptionally similar they were) did you like best?
I nearly forgot to thank Fabia.O for working together with me on this! Thanks!
