• Woah~ the cathedral arches have sunburst style lights inside them. Very cool ^^
• Backup dancers on stage now
• Dancers are folding the ropes on stage. Wearing bowler hats with shiny black pants and long black jackets.
• Changmim's wearing his short pant black suit. Yunho's wearing his short black jacket with suspenders
• Now doing first run thru
• This is so YH's dance style. He's so freaking suave and charismatic.
• Wow~ boys finally done. That was a really long prerec. A little short of two hours
• At the beg, YH talked with us. Asked if we were okay. We said yes. Then CM snarkily said something about it being too early
• Yunho said that the album is coming out soon and asked us to wait a little longer for its release
• Boys went backstage. Mics still on. CM laughed and we screamed. Then he laughed and made cute noises to make us scream again.
• Then YH warmed up & sang "She got the something~" We screamed again. Back on stage CM imitated us "Ahhhh~~~ Yunho Oppa!"
• YH was so relaxed when he talked w us. He asked us to thank the "cool MBC staff" & dancers for their hard work in today's perf
• The MuCore perf was intended to mirror the MV. The first take was the boys leaning against each other doing the whispering intro
• Changmin sounded like an old man, groaning when he bent down to get under the ropes and when he reached down to pick up the mic
• 4 takes of the intro. After 3rd take, YH had a shocked look on his face after the PD asked for 1 more. He thot that they had it.
• Most of the recording was in parts. Normally they would run through the whole perf several times but the boys rec their perf in pieces
• The next part was the strings choreo. CM practiced the hand movements with the ropes while things were being set up
• We all screamed DBSK fighting! And YH asked us if we were hving fun
• The PD was very exact in what he wanted. If the boys made a mistake or he wanted something different he immed stopped the take
• Filmed CMs part & cut after 2 secs. The PD correct CM. The next take cut early too & CM pointed to himself asking if it was him
• I couldnt hear what the PD said to CM but he did an extremely cute inhaled laugh
• Then YH practiced the rope syring choreo. CM made a big show of arranging his body in the shot for the PD. We all laughed. Cutie
• 5 takes with rope string intro into the dance.
• Then they filmed the dance part wo ropes. 4 takes. They had several long discussions w PD.
• CM impresses me every time with his dancing. What he lacks in skills, he makes up for with dedication & attitude
• To me, it seemed like the boys were frustrated with all the starting & stopping takes. I dont blame them.
• Maybe it was just tiredness, but they got this look on their face everytime a take was stopped
• Next was the rope boxing ring scene. CMs close up. Instead of walking to side, they had him walk to the camera & cover the lens w his hand
• Then YHs close up + solo dances. 4 takes.
• Then did the last part of the song + rope ending.
• On the first take, YH lost his balance and fell forward over the ropes. Caught himself on his hands.
• Boys went off stage to be fanned. They looked exhausted. When they came back we all yelled fighting!
• 2nd take was good. But boys slid a little when they leaned frwrd on the ropes. Staff sprayed smthng on their shoes to stop them from sliding
• Boys took a small break after 4 takes. Then started from beginning with string ropes. The boys monitored perf then YH asked for 5 min break
• When the boys came back, CM sat crosslegged on the stage while YH talked to the PD. We yelled fighting!
• They finally did an entire run through of the song. CM looked like he slid a little during his solo.
• Then YH had the dancers do their cheer "DBSK FIGHTING!" We joined in screaming FIGHTING!
• Then YH trolled us by making sounds into his mic like "oooh" and "uuuuhh"
• Did another rope boxing ring take. But the ropes didnt come out right. YH called cut on that take then apologized to staff & us
• Boys on thrones. YHs is red. CMs is white.
• Now boys doing Ten rehearsal. Wearing pants with matching waist coat and white button down
• Ten is such a sexy dance. HELLO BODY ROLL
• Finally done. Heading out
• For the last take of Something, CM flicked his mic cord to straighten it but it didnt work. He sighed heavily.
• When the PD called okay for Something, Changmin did a double hand wave to the audience.
• For Ten, the screen background said "I just wanna say thank you" then the next screen said "for the last 10 years"
• They did a rehearsal run through then 3 takes with just the dancers. Yunho told them to do a good job. In a friendly way ^^
• During the takes without the members, they only did the intro thru the countdown. Still CM sang the "ooooh" from backstage
• Then 2 takes w the boys then another take with just the dancers.
• When YH went backstage for the dancer take, he said "(Our) dancers are awesome, right?" Then said "Best of Best" in English.
• 2 more takes w the boys. Then they went backstage. CM singing on his throne b4 the 2nd take & YH sang while walking to bckstge
• Before the last Ten take, one of the dancers said something to CM & he responded w the CUTEST smile
• hen the PD called ok for the Ten prerec, CM pumped his fist as if to say "Yes! Finally!"
• The boys gathered on the left side of the stage. CM was already double hand waving ready to go backstage.
• YH held the mic with 1 hand & waved w the other. When YH started talking to us, CM stopped walking bckstge & stood next to him
• YH then asked us if we knew that this song was for us, Cassiopeia. We told him that we knew ^^
