*Fanchants were handed out. The Dong Bang Shin Ki chant is slower than normal to fit the beat. pic.twitter.com/iUcBW1qH0U
*It'll take us a take then we'll hv it down. Everyone's listening to the song & practicing
*Spellbound lyrics: "When I enter you and fill you up, you feel perfect" Oh really, Yunho? ^.~ trans cr. LoveKpopSubs
*Im now officially on board with this song. I like it. A LOT. It took quite a few listens but I love this song now. Its catchy~
*TVXQ prerec was 12 takes plus 3~4 mini rehearsal run-throughs and a little more than 90 minutes. The set was a white & black paneled walls with poker cards. Black & white checkered led bckgrnd. Poker table on stage #140228MuBank
*Girls in outfits from the mv but wearing black tights instead of fishnets.
*Boys in white suits. CM white shirt, red patterned tie, black & white kerchief in breast pocket, black kerchief around his arm #140228MuBank
*YH had a black shirt, white & red flower in his breast pocket, and colorful polka dot tie. Boys walked to the back of the stage. We screamed and YH his head back and lifted 1 hand in greeting. A little smirky smile. #140228MuBank
*YH stretched by twisting his waist and lifting his legs. At MuBank, Shim Jaewon was there and acted as the PD for the boys' prerec. He came on stage and hugged the boys. I thought he just came to watch but he was their PD #140228MuBank
*1st take was the boys sitting on the poker table doing the beginning of the song and into the individ choreo sections. After the 1st take, YH had us clap for the camera operator. The entire prerec was shot by this 1 cameraman w a handheld camera #140228MuBank
*When YH asked us to clap for the cameraman, they both stood up from the table & CM even bowed a little. These boys...
*During take 1, when YH stood & danced on the table, everyone lost their minds. When YH was on the table, CM was further up the stage & watched YHs perf. After a bit, he also nodded his head to the beat #140228MuBank
*The boys truly enjoy this song. Even when the filming stopped, the song contd to play & the boys wld sing along, dance, or groove to the beat.
*For take 2, they moved the 2 LED screens together. It had the boys pics in playing cards. YH was clubs & CM was diamonds. #140228MuBank
*Take 2 was the 1st chorus into the next individ choreo sections. CM made a mistake in his staging so the camera cldnt cut to him properly. Take 4 was a repeat of take 3. Jaewon gave CM his mark and it was a good take. CM went off stage to drink water. Everyone screamed ㅋㅋㅋ~ #140228MuBank
*Because everyone was watching with rapt attention & they were filming out of seq our fanchants werent strong. SM staff reminded us to be loud. Take 4 YH was back on stage with the b&w checkered bckgrnd. He did the part with the 3 girls. After the take, all the fans arnd me said "dae~bak!"
After YHs solo take it was CMs turn. YH went to the front stage to watch but noticd the cameraman was close edge & put his hand on his back. Then we screamed & YH turned at smiled at us. *.* #140228MuBank
*Take 5 was CMs solo part with the girls with trumpets. In the mv it was only 2 girls, but in the perf all 6 girls did the choreo. Then YH talked to us. About the cool camera work & how everyone is working hard then said smthng about Changmin (prob about his effort)
It always impresses me/strikes me how YH talks with the fans in the studio. In that soft, confident, caring way of his... Then h asked us if we like 수리수리 and we said its the best. Silly oppa~ #140228MuBank
*Take 6 was the 2nd chorus~end. Bc of the tricky cam work, CM & dancers hd to run off the front of the stg, behind th camera & comback on stg. Sometimes the dancers bumped into each other or almost bump into CM just bc everyone was rushing to make their mark. CM laughed to himself about the situation and said what looked like "Seriously?!" to YH #140228MuBank
*This began the many long discussions the boys, Jaewon, & the cameraman had about stage & camera positions. Took at least 30 min.
*CM did a cute two-hand wand waving motion to 1 of the dancers. Cutie~
*Then they did a mini-rehearsal with Jaewon. He held his arm out so tha the boys could visualize the camera. CM was very shiny with sweat at this point. #140228MuBank
*Another mini rehearsal of 2nd chorus to the end & discussion w Jaewon. Then another mini rehearsal. When CM does the kiss to the camera, YH has to run behind the camera & come up on the other side back in frame.
*1 more rehearsal with Jaewon. Jaewon sang 수리수리 softly while the boys went thru the moves & we did the fanchant just as softly. #140228MuBank
*CM had to run around the camera again and laughed at himself. I think that 1 of CMs most charming qualities.
*After the final rehearsal run, CM went off stage & had 3 diff coordis wipe his sweat off. YH had 3 diff coordis fanning him. Then CM looked in a hand mirror before goibg back on stage. WTF Changmin? Everyone laughed hard. #140228MuBank
*Then the boys wen back on stage. YH sang a lyric to warm up then CM did the same. They switched back & forth a few times. YH ended it with the most perfect, breathy, high pitched "baby~~." Everyone went ooooh. CM then laughed in that low, husky laugh of his. We cldnt hear what he said, but we heard his laugh #140228MuBank
*Take 7 was the beginning scene & 1st verse again. This time the boys threw cards in the air. Before Take 7, YH thanked us for patience while they work out th camera work. CM made a cute vocal exercise sound. We screamed FIGHTING! and CM pumped his fist in the air. Then we waved our balloons back. In Take 7, CM did the cute bunny ears motion with his fingers #140228MuBank
*Even tho take was cut, the track kept playing. YH expressively sang along to the rest of the song. While waiting, CM danced little bits.
*Take 8 was the 1st chorus into the next individ sections. CM made a mistake. The cameraman told CM what to do & CM apologized & bowed a little. Then Jaewon came & stage to talk with the boys a bit. Then patted YHs butt. Later he patted the small of CMs back ^^ Its a platonic sign of affection #140228MuBank
*Take 9 was the solo sections again. CM had cards this time. After the take, YH sang the rest of th song again. Take 10 was another one of YH with the 3 girls. CM was off stage monitoring the perf #140228MuBank
*Take 11 was another one of CM with the girls & trumpets. YH took his turn off stage monitoring the perf. Then Jaewon came on stage & wanted CM to show the card to the camera. CM seemed embarrassed for some reason & laughed. #140228MuBank
*YH had such an awesome expression when he did the part with the 3 girls. Hope its broadcast. CMs dancing was FIERCE in take 11. He OWNS that dance. #140228MuBank
*Take 12 (last!) was a run through from 2nd chorus to the end.
*Then boys both waved at us & thanked us for coming. Then CHANGMIN asked us to applaud the camera staff's hard work. The security guards started to kick us out of the studio but CM stepped forward & interrupted the guards so we could clap for the cam staff.
*Both the boys continued to wave while heading down the stairs off stage. Only 20 Cassies could get into live. I was # 44 so I knew I had a very small chance of getting in so I just headed home. All the Cassies left the studio going "Woah!" and "Daebak" and "Best! Seriously the best." #140228MuBank
